That's the advice y'all are giving me. This is an opinion board and I'm expressing an opinion. I'm not making personal attacks. I think 43 is a great poster. I'm just questioning one aspect and will continue to. Just skip my posts if they upset you.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
In other news, the Jets and Giants probably won't be very good this year.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I only read it because of you email on why you post from other boards. This isn't even Ram related. And this is insightful how? Not trying to be a jerk (I can't help it) but I fail to see how this adds to the board.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
A short yardage / goal line back is needed. Michel was that guy last year. Brown played that role here before. He was a pretty good pass catcher too, if I recall.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The drive by posters have less insight than we get from board members. Your posts, deadpool's, Jourdan's, etc. add to the discussion and elevate it. Berensden ram posts rams wire stuff which i appreciate. I don't care to read other people's grievances with McVay, Stafford, Morris, etc. That is not additive in my opinion.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
On this board we have out own Capologist - Albany, that's you, a college scouting department - Deadpool, a defensive coordinator - Jim Youngblood, and an O-line coach - den-the-coach. All add more than you'll find on turf show times or other fans sites, I believe.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I still think they add nothing to the board. All opinions and we have plenty of that on hereby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I stopped a while back. They are no more insightful or interesting as the posters on this board, in some cases, less so. And I don't want to go to other boards, one fan board is enough for me. If i did go to other boards, I'd sign up and post. Not sure why that's not appealing for the proxy posters.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't understand using a proxy to post on this board. It's a good board, easy to get access to and easy to post on. The posters have differences of option of course, but anything that spirals gets shut down. Most people post with good manners. Why don't Olden guy and kupper or whoever else just post here. It's not like a re-tweet of Jourdan or a reporter. Reporters are not trying to enby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Pretty similar numbers in yards and ypc. It's frustrating to watch, and it needs to be better for sure, but it's not like a deal breaker for playoffs or super bowl.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The prime of Gurley's career was something to see. Chunk plays, working the clock. It's not McVay's fault that Gurley's clock struck midnight after the Dallas game (he was kind of the reason they won that game along with CJ anderson as I recall. Passing game was held in check a bit). So it's not scheme, it's talent. And don't forget Gurley was a big dude. Not the short and light rb's we hby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Watching Stafford you can see that gunslinger mentality. He's not satisfied spending a game executing check downs. He likes to press things and force the ball down the field. Emphasis on the 'force'. He's not afraid to throw it all over the lot, which means yards and touchdowns and also interceptions. A bit like Farvre. Every game has the potential to be a thrill ride with ups and downs.

It was another receiver who didn't clear waivers maybe.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
He can lead block, or take the handoff as the up man, or run into the end zone as a receiver.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Was surprised to see him on special teams. Last I heard he was cut and not resigned to practice squad. Maybe another team picked him up at some point? Then...there he was - on the team, dressed and playing. Proves once again that the final 53 after cutdowns is merely a suggestion.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I still love Martz, in a way. No tolerance for any subpar performance. I don't know enough about QB play to opine on either QB, but to my inexperienced eyes, both looked pretty bad last year, and last weekend. Processing speed is something you can only coach so much. More than raw physical ability to me it's the most important thing an NFL QB needs to have. Drew Brees is one of the best examby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
He's in year 8. There's a reason he's been holding a clipboard up till now. Will he pull a Gannon or Testaverde - possible, but not probable. He's the guy you start when you've got no one else. Who did he beat out? Drew Locke? A never was.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The way Denver's D played up until late in the game Completely disorganized and out of sync. No pressure early on and WR's and TE's running free down the field. Geno Smith is the definition of journeyman and the Broncos made him look like Brady. 17 of 18?! It looked like a scrimmage. All day to pass, no one covered. Yet still only 17 points. I'm not going to worry about Seattle makinby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
For sure. Let's sign the creep. Maybe he can beat down the other team's cheerleaders too. Is this what's it's come to after one game?by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Forget all the other positions and snap concentrations. The Bills rolled 8 guys up front continuously so they always had fresh bodies. Yet Copeland and Hecht barely saw the field. Also why not rotate in Thomas at olb? It's 95+ degrees and the D can't get off the field on 3rd down - it seemed to work for the Bills pretty well and it's not like all 8 guys are great players.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I also thought of the Pats loss to the Bills last night. Forgot the Packers got it handed to them on week one. All the talk about Rodgers holding out and how it hurt him and GB was in trouble.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
They have 2 new guys to work in. It takes more than a quarter or 2 in pre-season to build line cohesion. It might be midway through the season before they gel together. It's a process. Same thing goes for WR - Robinson. Remember how few targets OBJ had his first few games vs how he and Stafford worked toward the end of the year. You don't just plug a new guy in and go.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm enjoying reading the doom scroll over how bad the Rams are now, and will be for the whole season. Lots of new posters or names I haven't seen since last November. Stafford can't make decisions, McVay is a terrible coach, not playing starters in the pre season will be the end of us, and on and on... Did y'all just step out of a time machine from September 2017? Um, we kinda won the superby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The Rock is jacked. maybe bulking up for Black Adam? Looks even bigger than from Hobbs and Shaw. Donald is jacked too and probably stronger.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
He's the one that retired with all the fanfare, etc. to spend time with his family, then on a whim says, screw it, I'm playing! That sounds like a spur of the moment, selfish decision to me. But hey, he's not a hot-blooded Brazilian and not a woman.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
These rising salaries are tied to the ever increasing value of broadcast deals. It used to be a battle between the networks - CBS vs FOX. Then you add DirecTV to the mix. Then ESPN, then Amazon. Each step adds more money into the pot. And for the broadcast networks, their ratings have been declining for years, except...live sports. Especially football. Sunday Night Football is usually theby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
He looked like a good slot player. Kind of a poor-man's Wes Welker.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
These things tend to move a bit as more vets come free. Also, there is the advantage of signing someone after week one so you don't have to guarantee full season - just game by game.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I kept refreshing the 'roster cuts' article. Of course I should have looked at the other - final roster cuts article. I guess 2 x articles on the same thing means twice the banner ads.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I thought it came and went at 1pm PST today. Ramswire hasn't shown any more cuts since Whitley.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
