He didn't fumble-away the catch by Kupp, he didn't shotgun-snap over his own head, he didn't fumble-away the run by Akers... And what do you know, he probably just sent them to the NFCCG with that deep throw to Kupp... didn't overthrow him, didn't short-arm it.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
60 full minutes of hard-smart-focused football to beat Brady Not 40 minutes, not 45 minutes, not 55 minutesby Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Rams would burn (their final??) timeout, get them jumping around before set on D... they've played so gassed, so panicky... If Bucs failed on the 2-point try, heck, they just attempt the OSK and if they make that they're one or two completions from FG territory.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
*RMK is Robert Montgomery Knight I forgot this earlier... It's not only having to PLAY HARD AND FOCUSED the full 60 minutes to beat Brady... It's also having to not shoot yourself in the foot the full 60 minutes...by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Brady has thrown what now, 55 times? The DL is rightfully gassed. No corner blitzes, nothing to throw Brady off even a little. I know Brady has solved every coverage known to exist by this time, but still... And as if on cue, there's another giveaway!by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Play this series as though "next TD wins." No other recent pep talks for the offense have worked. lol Rams have just about run out of their remaining nine lives, sooner or later the mistakes are sure to bite them!by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
HUGE play there, no question, there's still 14:33 to play... Get to work, Offense!by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Would prefer to see a north-south attack on this possession, pound pound pound. Play/coach/attack as we did in going from 20-3 to 27-3by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Buccaneers have thrown pretty much every down since midway through the second quarter. DL is bound to be tiring. Anything to keep Brady from getting comfortable in the pocket as this game gets tighter and tighter.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Get rid of the ball before the WR is ready, before the pass rush can get close...by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
You never know, plus you can't take your unused timeouts with you. Oh well, up 20-3 at halftime? We'll take that, I guess. Pedal to the metal in the second half, NO MERCY!by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
...then Cam couldn't possibly have been more down than at the 2. There's a crown of the helmet-shaped dent on the TB 2-yard line.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Put TB12 back out on the field down 27-3, and tell Donald & Crew, "Go get him!"by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Very snug sidelines and EZ spaces, fans right on top of the action, practically perfect weather for all Football Sundays, nothing posh or hoity-toity about it.... I'm guessing it's a really good football experience for a fan.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum

Of course, I mean to effectively down the ball near the goal line that way instead of touching the ball inside the field of play. If such a "swipe it OOB" is indeed legal, I'd coach-up my gunners that way. Heck, to prevent a gunner from batting the punt OOB even closer to the goal line, using today's technology a "spot of bat" could easily be enacted.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
My point, of course, was, "Rams, all units, offense/defense/STs, don't let up, don't take the foot off the pedal... no mercy!"by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
I always think/hope that punt coverage guys are taught "you know, downing it at the 4 or 5 is far better than trying for the 2 or 1."by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
This is what a Rams staffer should be posting on every wall of the locker room before the players leave the field at the half.by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
Give Brady a little "John Kreese" these next three downs -- NO MERCY!by Oakville Tim - Game Time Forum
...Who here thinks Ramsey would LOVE it if Morris would pull him aside during, say, pre-game stretching, and tell him: "See that '89 Guy' over there, name of Andrews? He's yours the whole day long. No, we don't care that you give up a few inches in height and a few pounds to him. He's yours. Have a great game, Shutdown Guy. See you after this huge win." Your thoughts?by Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
It seems to me Perkins has a very good, athletic upside any HC would want to keep... And last season, yes, we all got behind Wolford as Goff was hurt. But in truth, isn't Wolford at most another "Colt McCoy 2.0" when comparing his upside with that of Perkins' ?? If John needs to go to a short-term IR or whatever options are available to him to save him for the 53-man, so be it.by Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
...for lots of years. I too was really enthusiastic back then on following the NFL draft. Looking back, I annually bought The Sporting News draft guide... Sports Illustrated's week-before issue, figuring it had the "freshest" news... and especially Pro Football Weekly's draft guide so as to get all of Joel Buchsbaum's content. Neophyte war room fans such as myself put such credenby Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
Greg Robinson simply couldn't play at the NFL level, and that was stinking bad enough, a HOF crash-and-burn by the Rams' war room... but from all I've ever read about him, he did want to play. Conversely -- again, from all I've ever read about him -- Jason Smith had pretty much checked-out mentally by the time the Rams drafted him at No. 2 overall. He no longer even wanted to play football anby Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
... that with all these (no offense intended to these kids) bottom-feeder draft slots, "McSnead" is going to Joe DeCamillis and asking, "Which of these guys will help you help us win the Special Teams battle each and every week? Gunner guys, return guys, wedge guys, kamikaze guys." Yes, I'm guilty of belonging to those Rams fans who continue to scratch our heads in puzzlemby Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
So, all this data reflects the due diligence I hope the Rams are doing en route to building the best OL they can. I'm glad you guys opened my eyes! Clearly, there's no Dwight Stephenson, Jim Langer, or Mike Webster out there among FA centers. Maybe not even an Andy McCollum, performance-wise, given what Martin is sure to seek in his next contract. In any case, Stafford is their new crownby Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
If the coaching-up of Stafford by Caldwell is indeed true, I sure wish McSnead would reach out to Jim and offer him some sort of position on the revamped staff. (Even though the Rams announced their new staff already.) Be creative, make it a position worthy of Caldwell's time and career resume, mention the gorgeous LA weather, etc.by Oakville Tim - RamsFootballFans.com
