Quoteleafnose first with Devaney then with Snead now with Kyle not sure about the addition of father, but I do think there's some leaning towards Falcon OCMike Smith was a Falcon too and I think he was there with all of those guys as opposed to Shanahan who only has a coincidental connection.by moklerman - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax If Elway doesn't pick Joseph by the end of this week, I think Shanny is his guy. The odds are Shanny doesn't end up in LA. I won't be surprised if that interview with Rams never happens.That the window is closing, not that it's shut. Kroenke isn't going to just let his buddy Bowlen take Shanahan without a fight if he's the guy the Rams are targeting. I don't know if Shanahan is woby moklerman - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteHighPlainsDrifter He coached LBs at Ohio State and was apparently did well enough to be hired by the Texans in the same capacity. So, it appears that Vrabel is doing well away from New England. In fact, Vrabel never coached under Belichick, so it is a pretty big stretch to include him in the Belichick coaching tree.But did he get his job because of the Patriots connection to Bill O'Brien?by moklerman - RamsFootballFans.com
Quote21Dog QuoteRampage2K- to what Jax did today. After naming Kyle Shanahan the head coach they then hire Mike Shanahan as VP of Football Operations.

QuoteRFIP I tell you what. What I saw of this kid yesterday vs PSU was nothing short of amazing. As good a college QB as I have ever seen! But I also remember a young Matt Barkley whom I was blown away by at USC and when he stayed in school an extra year it cost him millions he will never see because the longer he played the more average he became. I know this kid has to stay another year, jusby moklerman - RamsFootballFans.com
Quote9er8er If he continues to show like he has for another season or two, that is the type of college QB that maybe you sell the farm to go get. Hopefully neither he nor any other QB is going to really be a consideration for the Rams in a couple years because Goff has figured it out by then.You're right, he still has more to prove but all we've got is all we've got.

QuoteGreatRamNTheSky I'd like some feed back on this. Is Jim Harbaugh the type of coach this team needs or that we as fans want? One thing in particular that bothers me about Harbaugh is his teams ultimately seem to lose big games. Is that a fare impression? They lost the Orange bowl tonight. They lost the show down game with Ohio State University. Harbaugh's 49ers lost the Super Boby moklerman - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteBobCarl I like the relationship that Gruden and Rich Gannon had ... Gruden did his homework ... he would even sleep at the office for a few hours and not go home for days.

Quote9er8er Winning the FA Cup is not winning a championship. The FA Cup is a tournament within the season, not the league championship. Arsenal has never won the EPL title under Kroenke.

QuoteRamUK I posted this before. Arsenal are going through somewhat of a renaissance under Kroenke and spending more money than at any time in their 100+ year history.

QuoteLesBaker I'm willing to post more articles about how EVERY fan base of Kroenke's teams don't like how he is handling them. Seriously? You think you know more about this because you are from the UK? Sorry Tim, he's not well liked by ANY of the fans of his teams. He's Georgia Part Two. With more money and more teams.No, he's not.

Quote9er8er You're just not getting the difference between spending and actual investment in winning, which is about more than just opening a checkbook.
