it's weird. Like he's lost body control or something. Ball hits hands, body hits ground. It's kind of his 'thing' now. Though as an NFL player you don't really want that to be your 'thing'by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Season tickets are a lot of money, I imagine, on top of psl's and other blatant money grabs from the teams like forcing you to buy preseason games. If you wanted to go to some games you could buy season tickets and cut down on your overall cost by reselling some at a profit. The NFL condones this with their re-ticketing site I think.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Instead of playing from behind more often than not. Cooper rush completed 10 passes for 100 yards. Think about that. They just kept running the ball and running it some more. There was no reason to throw - it's not like the cowboys had to worry about us scoring when we had the ball.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
That's 2 blocked punts in 5 weeks - is that some kind of Rams record? There has to be someone else. What about the guy they signed as an emergency back up?by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The owner might be giving up on the season and look to trade away older talent before the deadline to accumulate draft capital. Would make sense if the team isn't going to be any good for the next 2 or 3 years. Kind of like the Jets / Dolphins plans. Although the Dolphin one might have been more nefarious. Are there players on the Panthers we might be interested in? Does McCafrey even playby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com

They 'gave up 24 points'- no, they gave up 17 points. And even if it was 24, that's not a defensive collapse stat. Also, you write a whole article about the 'plan' to put their hands up when rushing? Seriously? This is the extent of the game plan Morris is working on this week.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Might be some red flags with him. But certainly they could have made a more inspired choice than Hackett.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The Pittsburgh Steelers. And they're not going to be in the playoffs either. So why would they trade for a player who will cost a lot of money and maybe only plays for one more year, if that? Answer - they wouldn't. He is going to retire a Ram. If they miss the playoffs, I imagine he'll walk away and be done.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
So he could run or pass. Might freeze a db or 2. But no, let's pretend he's Matt Ryan and a statue and have him just sit in the pocket - waiting for the wrong time to throw a bad pass.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
it's not like he's a local legend or anything (CU star). And had no experience working with a mobile QB who excels at working off-script. Why would you want to give someone like that a shot when you can hire a random guy who's claim to fame is he had a mediocre coach for a Dad. He can join Kingsbury and Rhule on the 'why did they get hired' bus out of townby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Everyone talks about OBJ, and Von Miller - but they weren't on the Rams until the second half of the season. And didn't really start having an impact until a few games after that. The Rams had success, offensively, before that and had a good record heading into November before the slump. So I don't think you can just say - OBJ. It's more accurate, maybe, to talk about missing Woods, Jeffersonby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
It does do what it's supposed to across the copycat league. It's much more fun to watch your team pull a legion of boom and totally shut down the opponent.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
At least, I thought it was good. Not super technical, but an easy read.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
2 catches in the game on monday - ball hits hands, body hits ground. Untouched, No balance anymore?by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I know I've given you grief for posting from other boards, but zn is a familiar name to many on this board, and though I got into back and forths with him on many occasions in the past (as I know others have as well!) but he's got valid points most of the time, especially in the case of this post. It's almost better that it's a repost so there won't be the 47 post argument threads between himby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Seriously, give the rookie some snaps. Maybe he's ready to step up. I know it was just preseason - but he pretty much dominated preseason for the rams wr's.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't think you can judge him until he's played a season or two. Same thing with Rochelle. For a 7th rounder - Skow is a contributor and a decent possession receiver.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
All the raving about catch radius and great hands - and just put the ball near him and something is wrong. It's like we got a lemon. He drops balls, or catches them and falls down (twice last night). The most aggravating was the shot to the corner of the end zone - the throw wasn't great - but wasn't this the kind of play he was making in training camp and we thought he'd make here. It didn'tby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
There's no way of knowing the outcome of things that didn't happen. As much as I feel the pick was a waste, to say if we'd just picked Creed, all would be right in the world is to misunderstand how the world works. Which I don't profess to know, by the way. As Rusty pointed out - Creed could've got hurt last year or this, we don't know. Or maybe we would still be leaking up front as everyoneby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
It's like an amalgamation of this board's points all season - some of them obvious, some of them wrong - like, saying the defense was terrible. They gave up 17 points on the road to a team with a veteran QB and weapons, they were not the reason we lost.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I really enjoy your re-posts of turfshow times and rams wire (which you can't use on a phone running ad blocker #$%!!) It's a great addition. I was just making a joke - the timing of the article. Keep on posting.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
There is nothing in there that this board hasn't been saying for 4 weeks now. I agree with Youngblood's assessment.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Gone is the flair and panache, the misdirection and exploiting holes in the defense. Some of it is personnel, but these long, drawn out, skin of the teeth drives ending in field goals are really dreary to watch. Did anyone think they'd really mount a comeback last night? Even before the pick six? There's no excitement or swagger with the group. It's an endless stream of no gain rushes and shby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
There's more than just blaming 'poor line play' on running success. A top tier rb needs to have vision and exploit holes, no mater how small or where they appear. Akers, it would seem is lacking this innate talent. He just doesn't seem the guy to carry the load this year and beyond. Not sure we have any options until next year. Maybe we can swing a sony michel type deal at the deadline.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Just sayin...by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
To me, him not dressing in what was the biggest game of the young season was an important signal of the staff finally acknowledging what the board has been saying for over a year.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
And, it's a re-tweet, so you can't engage this person in a discussion.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
All that training camp hype and supposed field stretching capability - exactly what McVay envisioned when he brought in Jackson last year. Now, when the offense needs someone to clear out the underneath zones a bit, the one guy on the roster who actually had the speed to do it - doesn't even dress! That to me, says everything. They don't trust him and they don't feel he can contribute. Normaby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Great read and recognition by the rookie. If that goes the other way as a pick six that's a 14 point swing and a huge momentum play. As badly as we played, the game was decided by that play and Stafford's pick six. Otherwise we hung in there more than it seemed by the final score.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
