yes - basketball But in any sport that has combative play. Basketball, Football, Soccer, Hockey If you lose intensity and don't match the other team, you are in a lot of trouble. Long periods of not competing makes it difficult to get up to the level you need to compete against a team going full speed on all cylinders.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
Decided to have a light Friday practice, took Saturday off, and only had a shooting practice on Sunday and came out stale and a step slow on Monday and lost a conference game against a team we should have beaten. 7-2 now instead of 8-1 with 1 game to go and no chance of conference title. Similar to the Rams losing in the playoffs because they lost that competitive edge that last week inby Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
because I don't see star playmakers other than the tight end and really don't see it on defense either. It be great to see the team without Brady but with Belichek and see how they do. My guess 10-6 It be great to see the team with Belichek but with brady and see how they do. My guess 8-8 and than without both of them. My guess 5-11by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com

clean cuts. They look rounded to me. I also cannot understand the confusion at the Line of Scrimmage and inability to judge a ball. I hope it isn't what I think it is. No way a fan would know though.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
provided Fisher had nothing to do with the offense just replacing Greg Robinson and Fisher staying completely away from the offense could have gotten the Rams to 8-9 wins. Add in the WRs and it is a 10+ win team. But even if Greg Robinson was gone, if Fisher had any input on offense, the team was incapable of winning.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
Some of the excuses are valid but most of them are overblown. A more simplistic view on Fisher is this: He was as bad as it gets on offense and almost every offensive player did better in other circumstances. And when you see how bad Goff and Gurley were last year and how much they were when they had better coaching, it is eye opening. Than throw in Keenum and Foles and it is a conby Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
More ups than downs for sure And the QB rating that Speed mentions is FACT. But the picks were killers in the Saints game, the Patriots game, and the Steelers game. Those picks don't happen and Kurt has 4 superbowls instead of 1.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
Stafford can win any game but he can also lose any game. He is a great competitor and talented, but is such a gambler and inconsistent which maybe he has to be because he never has a good enough defense. I don't think he can go through and win 3 playoff games without some bad play killing the chance. In some sense, Kurt Warner, had a similar problem, but he got through in 1999, but a couplby Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com

If he feels that Butler should sit out the superbowl, than that is what should happen. I do know this. the Patriots would win whether Tom Brady was there or not. I don't know if the Patriots will win without Belicheck. Maybe, provided the assistants followed the current way of doing business and Tom Brady stayed on, but no guarantee. On the other hand, in the small subject of Brady beiby Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
While I believe Jordon may be the greatest player of all-time, mostly because of his combination of being a great defensive player in addition to his offensive talent, I believe he got too much credit and Pippen too little credit in that championship run. Here is an amazing statistical fact: 93 Bulls, with Jordan: 57-25 94 Bulls, without Jordan: 55-27by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
as many QBs, actually most QBs do. Jeff Fisher and Greg Robinson gives you little chance to be a good NFL QB in this modern age of football. I think the only 2 that could do it would be: Aaron Rodgers - as he is the greatest of all time and can make players around him better and Cam Newton, because he can do it with his running with his powerful size similar to McNair.

so he is a different kind of player now. I think Watkins is more a short stuff post up receiver even though he isn't tall, he does have great hands and is strong.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
especially if they hire Jeff Fisher as a coach. But seriously, many times the environment and coaching changes the player. Foles was a good player before Fisher, was awful with Fisher, and a good player with the Chiefs and a Good player this year.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com

Hear Aikmann - JUST GOT IT OFF (Just unbelievable) Go to the 11:04 mark - This is why the Rams didn't win the superbowl. I still cannot believe it. The Rams just got the play off trailing late in the game. Just got it off. It was complete confusion and they burned the entire play clock. That one play was the biggest play of the season, but it wasn't isolated to this one play.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
and maybe. You have to win a couple of games late in the game when trailing. Hard to make it all the way to the superbowl where you are depending on always leading in the game. that hurry up offense was the biggest problem. Rams trail late and it is over for now until it is fixed.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
1) Homerun - Going for it at the 2 and getting the touchdown 2) Homerun - Going for it on the other side of the 50 3) Dodged a bullet by settling for that field goal instead of passing on 3rd down late in the game. I am getting though it was because the worst case situation was a tie IF HE MADE THE FIELD GOAL, but I still didn't think it was a good decision.

It shows how you can take the same players and put them in different circumstances with better coaching and it can make all the difference in the world. This is why I LOVED COACH MARTZ. He could take players, especially talented players and get them to play at their very best. McVay's ability to turn the career's of Goff and Gurley around will always be remembered.

Kurt was between Kerry Collins and Randall Cunningham in career yards and had like 5-6 poor to average years from 2002-2007. He was 36th in all time passing yards. Pace's performance while cannot be proven statically, was a different player after he started to hold out and his hold outs were largely responsible in teams not making it up to their potential. I think he was very overraby Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
He drafted 2 of them and he was so horrific on offense that the Rams went looking for a good offensive coach. Hence, without Fisher, maybe no McVay.by Rams_81 - RamsFootballFans.com
over Greg Robinson. The Robinson pick made no sense whatsoever. You pick a project who only ran a handful of plays in his career with no pass blocking skills for a modern age NFL team. Although with Fisher, that explains part of the problem as he had no intention of being modern age.

but never had the MVP type of year. It appears the selection is more about how good were you at your highest point versus were you really good for many many years Bruce like #3 all time in receiving yards I believe.
