Another reason why it' not a good article. Who knows which of these guys will play great, play poorly, get injured. Let's focus on next year first. We don't even have a full coaching staff yet.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Good article and really relevant. And it seems like it's a problem for several teams - not just the Rams (for those of you with pitchforks who want to go after Snead).by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
If they haven't already - Gurley, Cooks, Havenstein with less dead money / cap hits. So the Rams could have a lot more than this article says. An article like this is really not relevant. So much will change between now and then that any kind of ranking on cap space is pointless.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Keep him and Ramsey under contract. Hopefully the kid from Michigan can fill the nickel role in 2021.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
A 35 year old safety who's best days are behind him does not equal safety depth.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I know he's spent his whole career on the left side and might not be able to make the switch in one off-season, but let's say Evans or Noteboom give them more athleticism on the left side. Whit holds down the right side, is less exposed and then you're just looking for 2 guys to develop / draft / acquire for the Center and LG position (if it's not Noteboom) Maybe it's too crazy. Or so crazyby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Rice had Montana and Young for most of his career plus an all-star cast around him. Bruce had Warner for, what 3, 3.5 years? Before '99 he was the only offensive weapon this team had - with marginal talent throwing him the ball - incredible!by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Whereas some NFL teams have playbooks as thick as phone books, the Rams have assembled one of the league’s most dangerous offenses primarily by going the other way. Their approach is streamlined. In some ways, McVay will trot out the most predictable scheme in the NFL in Saturday’s divisional round matchup with the Cowboys. Look closer, though, and it’s clear that even if the players don’t changeby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
It has often been said by many that there are three basic offensive schemes: the West Coast offense, the Erhardt-Perkins offense, and the Air Coryell offense. The reality is that in today’s NFL, every offense has elements of these three schemes incorporated into their playbooks, but there are distinct differences in verbiage and philosophy between the three. The Air Coryell is named so because ofby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
You say everyone's comparing Garrappalo to Goff and that's a fact. You're the only person I've seen comping the 2 recently. Who else compares them on a regular basis? You say McVay's system is simple and that's a fact. Where did you read that? I've never seen it described as a simple offense. Is San Francisco's offense 'simple'? What about Seattle? You say the league caught up to McVaby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
My Niners score was pretty close. Might have given the Chiefs a little too much credit on the scoring side.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
And does complexity equal success? San Fran, Baltimore and Tennessee seemed to have pretty 'simple, predictable offenses. Didn't seem to slow them down this yearby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
If they're all running the same system - lets just lump them all together and rank them. then we can also rank the mobile quarterbacks - Lamar, Kyler, Tannehil, Josh Allen in their own category and then.... Seriously- its not meaningful in terms of a teams success or failure. As many similarities that Jimmy G and Goff have there are also just as many things different about their individual gby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I really hope they're not going light blue. that helmet does not look good.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
And yet every year teams that made it before do not and new teams get in the mix. I think the Rams were probably #2 on this list last year post superbowlby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
maybe in 10 years you can look back and compare accomplishments - but even then much of that will have to do with circumstance. I think the flood of analytics based websites has turned everyone into an evaluation 'expert' 'His QBR was this...they're ranked 25th on this metric', blah blah blah. At the end of the day - did you win more than you lost and did you give your team a chance to compby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Not like our pro bowl / MVP candidate RB being hobbled late in 2018 and into the superbowl. And one of our top receivers and one of the best slot guys in the game - Cupp - didn't have him in the big game Our O-line was in perfect health all of 2019 too. Plus - Talib, Johnson Matthews, no injuries on our D, oh no. It's all regression and crappy coaching!by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Not sure what his PFF rating was but it seemed like he was consistently getting walked back into Goff and letting the pocket collapse. He seems like maybe a career back-up. Blythe outplayed him when he came in and he wasn't exactly pro-bowl caliber. Definitely need an upgrade at Centerby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Chiefs explode for 3 3rd quarter touchdownsby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
That's a 5 or 6 win team without him. To me that's the 'most valuable player'.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
How'd that work out? I hope the Chiefs hang 50 on them. Probably won't happen and the 49'ers have a real shot to win, but a fella can dreamby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Also - how'd it work out? He got hurt right away. Not a good sign for a physical ILB. Can't make the club if you're in the tubby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
I'd hope a Super Bowl contender would want more than that on the field.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Besides getting hurt - what has he done? There wasn't much depth at the position and all he did was beat out 2 less talented reserve players -Hager and Reeder. Howard could be something but we don't know. He looked good and bad. There's always a chance they move Patrick back inside - that was his slot coming into camp, I believe. Dakota Allen is probably out there and available - did heby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
We're basically about 5 months away from it having to be ready for Taylor Swift. They would need it to be running and tested and bugs worked out at least a month before her show in July, I would think. I have to think that show might be in jeopardy. Not even sure it will be ready for pre-season. Regular season game as first event would give them several months bufferby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
Cooks is 'washed up". Really? He's had 4 years of 1000 yards receiving and one down year this year. He's 26 - and now 'washed up". It's pretty obvious you're not a fan of our coach, our GM, or our players - so why do you even follow the team? It's not like we've been losing for 10 + years and you're at your wits end - as most of us were by the time Fisher was shown the door.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
From the current article. Also, there are many different types of strength programs. It's not just 'lifting weights'. There's nutrition, also plyometrics, pilates, cross-fit many different ways to 'add a strength program' Why can't you just admit you don't know what he did last off-season and you don't know what he'll do this offseason and leave it at that. Just like you're not Gurley's doby promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
He's really not adding a strength program this offseason cause he already added on before and this is the same one and he's just making stuff up? Is that your conclusion?by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
The fact that he brought it up would lead you to believe that he's going to add a new, focused strength program. Might include dietary work as well, Hopefully this goes beyond the regular team lifting stuff.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
No BS. You really know you're stuff and I learn so much from reading them. You should write some online articles for Ramswire or USA today Rams - most of their coverage is filler just re-hashing and chopping up press conference bullet points. Sorry to hear about your troubles. On the bright side you have your daughters with you. That's more important than any of the other noise.by promomasterj - RamsFootballFans.com
