And most of them were with the officials looking directly at the fouls and ignoring them. Rams still probably don't deserve the W because it shouldn't have been that close. But it was not a fairly called game... and when its like that, when it is so obvious, it highlights the lack of integrity in the game. Officials need to be taken out of the game. The game can easily be called from the booth. Cby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
one where you can run at will and still lose. That said you also have to stop the run. It was a closer game than the scoreboard suggested. However, the Rams' offense didn't capitalize on their opportunities. And the defense played poorly. Despite playing mostly backups, the Rams were competitive against a potential playoff team. If the Chargers played as soft as the Broncos did the week prby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
If players come back healthy who do you want to kick off the team? They need to fix the OL... a lot of that will happen when players return. They need a starter LT (not Noteboom) and some depth. And maybe an edge rusher. And they will need to replace some players who leave just like every team does every year... so where is the rebuild???by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Very few RB's thrive with poor blocking. Very few, if any, QB's thrive regardless of protection. All of the Rams skill players were reduced to bums. For some the Rams' don't have a QB, receivers, TE's or RB's and they think the defense stinks. A rebuild is in order. In my opinion, if the Rams can fix the OL and improve their depth (and be at least marginally lucky with injuries) then they alrby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I think a few other fans traveled a long distance to get there as well. It was nice to see the stadium. It is a beauty. I kind of wish I had made the effort to see them in the Coliseum. Part of the experienced truly sucked. I sat next to a Raider fan who was obviously annoyed when I took the seat next to him. There were a lot of Raider fans there and I was surrounded by them.

Nice to travel 3000 miles to an away game...by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
It was so loud when the Rams were on O it was ridiculous... and the few Ram fans were trying to out-cheer them making it even louder. I was literally surrounded by Raider fans... $500+ a ticket in club seating on the home side. It was an uncomfortable experience and basically like seeing the Rams in an away game. They were loud at the right times and showed up for their team. It was surreal. Iby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

Bro, I am paying $500 for a ticket plus traveling across the country. To see what is essentially a preseason game. I appreciate the opportunity to watch the Rams because, like you, there was a time I couldn't. But I can't lie and say I am excited about the trip but I still want to go more than I don't. However, I will be watching the condensed versions for the most part from here on out. It'sby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
up to this point. Now with just a shell of a team, how the team plays is just less important to me. Buffalo was concerning but not alarming because there was a SB hangover and lack of preseason reps. So, OK the first few games are their preseason... But more injuries and no running threat. Without Stafford the Rams don't have much in the way of a QB, as far as I know. And without a starting caby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
But it's not like the Rams have to start from scratch. And my thought with the first game was it was basically a pre-season game. But I also agree that the OL was not strong enough to go into the season with. I feel like the Rams were going to sink or swim the OL they had... and they were probably going to barely tread water at best. But once the injuries started they not only sunk but they got bby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
From my perspective, the Rams need a legit LT and need to add a few starter-quality OL. I wouldn't snub my nose at a good RB either. after that they just need to get healthy. We won't know what the Rams need until players come back. Can Stafford recover from concussions is my biggest concern. If not then the Rams better focus hard on the running game so the QB can be effective.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I was more in favor of him staying than leaving but it turned out to be nothing. I was more concerned about Whitworth retiring because Noteboom is not only a good notch below in ability, he is also always injured. But having Miller here wouldn't have changed the injuries to the OL. Is it possible maybe the defense makes a few more plays and even enough to win a few more? Yup... but the Rams aren'by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

But it is just less pronounced when winning. My "give a damn" is not going full force right now because I realize that most of what is happening is out of their control. Traditionally a very healthy team.. This is the outlier.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
But there is little negative media on Brady... His fans will believe anything but even non-fans call him the GOAT... and its BS in my opinion. Could you imagine if Stafford played on the Pats teams? They wouldn't have had to cheat. And what if Brady was drafted by the Lions... Brady who?by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

Like being down 3 scores with 30 seconds to go and still passing. I don't think younger players will get a sniff. He will play to win every game. The one silver lining I am hoping for is for this season to force them to focus on the OL in the off season. Hopefully with little luck in the health department and a few solid vets, things will improve quickly... I wouldn't say no to a good LT eithby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I think if they don't get stricken with massive injuries, they will easily slingshot back up... But I still think the Rams misjudged their OL. Even if the OL had stayed healthy, I don't see Noteboom as someone I want to protect the franchise's blindside. And I think they need to eat some crow and admit their plan coming into the season was flawed. But either way, a healthy Rams team next yearby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
It's only when the article got to the end that it acknowledged that injuries played a part. Just an attention grabber... but the Avengers Infinity War quote is a bunch of crap Still a top defense.

But the problem isn't the defense, WR's, QB, back up QB... those are issues but almost everything is amplified by the lack of play action. Feel like I'm just on repeat.

The injuries didn't help, they just made it much worse. The dice roll faileby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
OL injuries screw up everything. To me, most of the offensive woes can be attributed to weak OL play. The catch-22 is that the OL can't take up too many roster spots because you need playmakers but if injuries strike your season is in jeopardy. But still, I think the Rams felt like they had the OL covered. But even with the OL completely healthy, it's still not very good. IMO the Rams overby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Without it, this is what you get. The receiver issues hardly matter. Its an offense that needs play action to function. Am I missing something? I think the Rams overestimated their OL. But I also think they put their chips into that basket and had to ride out the current OL as is based on where they allocated their money. Losing Whitworth... Akers having issues...
