QuoteAlbaNY_Ram In 2016 the Rams travelled 32,072 miles. The Rams travelled 29,167 miles in 2017 and around 27,000 miles in 2018. For the 2019 season the Rams are slated to travel 33,072 miles. However, they are expected to stay on the east coast after the Atlanta game and fly to London from there, saving themselves 3,165 miles. The result is they will travel 29,907 miles in 2019.

Other than the Charger game--even Earl couldnt have gotten to those two balls in the corner of the end zone imo, and the Saints game where he was in position but misplayed the ball.

The Viking game was exceptional because of some amazing passes ECT. I'd vote for the NFC championship game because he had some very adverse crowd conditions to deal with and a headset that wasn't working properly. The stakes were high and he came through passing the ball on a day the running game was not working.by Killrazor - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotezn My choice isn't about which is the greatest player, or a favorite player. It's about what this 2019 team needs. Given that if I were to bring back one player in his prime to put on this team, it would be Kevin Greene. He fits because he was a 3/4 OLB and would be productive (and very helpful) in Wade's defense. In his prime--88 through 90--he was averaging around 15 sacksby Killrazor - RamsFootballFans.com

This would upset me to no end. We are still in a Super Bowl window and we have blocking issues already heading into this season. We are not sure what the line is going to do until the real games start. Higbee can block and we might need it more than ever right now.

I do remember those articles as well, Florida. That is the kind of stuff I remember reading as I was doing my research on Mcvay to see what kind of coach we were hiring.

I'm glad that McVay and Goff plan on staying together a long time. I remember reading an article regarding Cousins performance after McVay moved on to the Rams.

As far as Joyner goes, it's been reported that he was asked to play The deep middle last year and he was not very effective doing it. Weddle on the other hand is very good at playing the deep middle.
