Cannot win games by relying on FG`s. We know about that too well, lol Jones stole this guy and he was on the bottom of his totem pole on draft day. Pick #135? I`m jealous.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRams_81 But it all comes down to having the offense stop underachieving. Fisher needs to change how he approaches things and develope the players better. Aside from Todd Gurley, I just don't see a very talented team on offense. And is the Rams secondary really that talented?by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
And I`m afraid its a good one :(by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
That was 100% him and not Snead. It's already known that Fisher was paranoid that his old team, the Titans were going to select Joyner at #42, two slots ahead of the Rams original slot at #42. No one really knows if Tennessee were going to do that and I think they even denied it. That being said, if a coach/GM loves a player and gives up a 5th round pick to move up to get him, I think that's exacby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotereggae Not something I want to spend much time on tho They are already not very strong in the backend and he`s a fierce competitor with long arms and good athletic ability. Rams just have to find the best position for him and keep him there. He struggled some outside, so keep him inside at nickel and don't keep moving him around. I always thought FS was his best position coming out, but whby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
He will KO you. Andre Williams KO on Thursday night football was memorable.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBlue and Gold I think STs need to win us a couple of games, a punt return by Austin, a blocked kick for a TD, etc I think we cannot beat ourselves and give away games like we have under Fish, with penalties and stupid stuff. But, we will not be dominant and when you play with razor thin margin, it can go either way. This is what bothers me. Needing to rely on ST's to win games andby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotelaram I believe, that Fisher does indeed have all the power. But.... I also know that he does rely on the opinions of others and only flexes his muscle when there is no consensus on a player. He unquestionably has final say on the roster. I also believe what I'm told because it came from a coach, that just recently left the Rams. Fisher and Snead have a very good relationship.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Need Quinn and Tru to stay healthy or else that defense could fall apart some. Have to find a way to not be so conservative on offense or else teams will focus on shutting down Gurley and the run. Keenum needs to take shots down field. Not having a great feeling about the season, but hopefully I'm wrong.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Although, I know this is pretty much already widely well known, I spoke with a known NFL Network employee this past Friday and I was told this before I could get it out of my mouth myself. This person also tells me many talk about and wonder how Fisher can keep his job as long as he does. This person also says Fisher will get an extension, and will serve two more years (2017-2018) after this seasby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax I think it was close to 100/0 that had Goff over Prescott and Lynch. Where is Prescott or Lynch named anywhere in this thread? I was replying to what Blue&Gold wrote about Goff/Wentz.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Another tall (6`6) pass catching TE to develop.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
No more than 60/40 in anyone's favor and probably closer to 50/50.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Nope. I thought and stated Wentz was the better fit for the Rams if I was choosing between the two. I actually started that thread to see who everyone picked so we could look back on it one day. Too bad its gone. QuoteSpeed_Kills That he's knows what he is doing when it comes to the forward pass... There will be doubt Doug Pederson and his time with Reid automatically gives him a keg up asby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBlue and Gold though he got it by default, compared to Goff, but still, we will see what he has. I stick to my thoughts hat neither Wentz nor Goff worth the multiple picks, but of the two, I preferred Wentz. I just hope he can stay healthy. I always liked his intangibles and why I chose Wentz over Goff for the Rams. Its going to be fun to watch. Too bad our archive is gone where everyoneby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotealyoshamucci The Bad 12) Some poor footwork by Goff and sailing passes as a result. The Ugly 17) Goff's body language after some bad play ...

I can deal with the bad, but the ugly you listed above is what bothby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
I may be a bit biased because I liked them both coming out, but I would find a way keep these two. Green > Reynolds (I doubt this happens as Fisher is a big Reynolds supporter, but I would do it) Thomas > Williams, Marquez, Quick (I feel Thomas just needed more time to get acclimated and brought up to speed. Best upside of this group IMO) Losing both Marquez and Reynolds may be a bby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
This is another very questionable move by Fisher/Snead. I`m currently not feeling too good about it. Hope and pray Fisher knows what he`s doing here, but I have my doubts.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
No excuses one way or another at the end of the season. Injuries, meltdowns, rookies, new coaches, etc, etc. Many of us hit the nail on the head at this time last year when we predicted the Rams would go 7-9. Personally, I`m not expecting any better in 2016.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRam Fan Teacher What did you guys think of LeMarcus Joyner's actions during this episode? I didn't care for it and makes me feel like I wouldn't mind seeing him cut and giving someone like Mike Jordan a job.....but we know this won't happen.

I saw in the box score he only had 1 reception, but 6 targets. Did he have any drops or were the passes uncatchable?by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteGreatRamNTheSky Hager reminds me a lot of Jack Hacksaw Reynolds. I see Tree moving back to the outside Josh Forrest I think is another guy who could be a big man in that linebacker rotation soon. Grits If Tree fails or underperforms at MLB, Williams and Fisher made a big mistake letting Laurinaitis go. And I was not a J-Lau fan. At this point, Hager is a downgrade from J-Lau.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
Singletary was a great hire. If he cannot help Tree succeed, I don't know who can :clapby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
If he cannot stay on the field it won't matter. I think we are going to see him be held out of a lot of practices this year. That's fine just as long as he doesn't miss games. I do love the fact that Fisher has Higbee and Goff rooming together. It does tell me something. TE Jared Cook was the Rams leading receiver in 2013 and #2 in 2014 & 2015 behind Britt. Cook was obviously on the fby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com

I really hope the Jets allow him to continue to build off that and give him a lot of reps these last couple preseason games. I was watching Petty and his teammates on the sidelines and it seems like his teammates are all in his corner and like him quite a bit. Important stuff.by PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
But don't you think maybe there has been enough years of suffering the effects of bad karma and the Rams are ready to feel the effects of that good karma again? Wait.....I take that back! I don't want to jinx them and the QB they just gave up the farm for to take #1 overall. :confused I`m not 100% sold on Goff yet, but there is plenty I see in him that makes me believe he will be the futurby PaulButcher59 - RamsFootballFans.com
