QuoteJamesJM The man is coaching, rearing, Goff. At this point I'm not sure what that means... but I'm worried about it. As I said in a reply some time back... I don't trust Fisher with QB's, (much anyway)... so I'm not any more confident in Goff being the guy than I am in believing he's 'not ready'. - JamesJM Fisher in charge of our future QBby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
For me its personal as a reluctant fan of his. I don't have to call him names or mock him. Jeff has been given the rope by SK and he looks like he will hang himself out to dry. He has 2 clothe pins. Boras and Keenum. Those 2 decisions served notice. The rest is a laundry list you can fill in in almost any order but a few involve Geoff, Gurley, Robinson and the ever incomplete OL.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com

TA is coming across the field at his speed and with is avg hands you have to lead him away from the coverage instead he is forced to square up and could not get his hands in position to catch the ball cleanly. Tip INT and the blame game is in full effect. Fisher's talk is all a bunch of huey and he knows it I hope.

Who is coaching and if the audible is for a read or and they saw differently. If there was a key that impacted the route and the QB saw it differently we have to look at the play and I clearly see the out or back shoulder as the best play. Keenum's throw was hoping for a PI or break-up.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
Did you think that was a good pass? To you believe that is better than a break up? Was there no more downs left? That happens to average QBs and poorly coached teams. I am looking at this as a QB and coaching fault. You coach for thse situations Having failed in rior weeks and having nearly given up the game in the prior drive, Keenum has to be more prepared and more focused. Focused enoby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
Fisher quotes are worthless...I think we all know that. Ask Foles and Bradford.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
QB must take conrrol fo the huddle make sure his WRs are focused. QB must be poised and in that siutation he threw a pass that was a very bad pass when it was not 4th down. QB may make audible but needs to also understand what he is seeing. WR so have some keys they look for so if he audibles and the ball is not coming out fast then that tells me there should have been som route options and tby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
DBs over the the top and you are lobbing. A poor audible then, Dan is trying to give QB a benefit of the doubt. Either way Keenum has to know he and the WR are seeing the same thing. Asuming he is the leader in that situation.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
Does not appear to have discouraged you. Keenum was no perfect on the pass. He is not leading his wr acroos the field the are having to square-up as theyu cross the field. Keenum had plenty of time no excuses for passes that are not being properly placed. Britt and Quick had to try and adjust to some bad balls and while we may not have Eite WR talent we are being QB'd by a barely adequate QBby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
looked to me like Quick made the right choice if ball had been thrown back shoulder. The pass was embarrassing looked like a punt. Ill advised from a QB who has thrown some ill advised INT's in this game and coming into game having been in tying and game winning situations is now 0-3.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
Fisher has no excuse for keeping his job if he scapegoats BQ and not his QB. That last pass should have been thrown away rather than tossed up 20 yds in the air for 20.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
I am not week to week with Jeff Fisher. If we managed to get a win is he a better coach than we have seen thru his tenure? Is he a better coach than his career record. He is a coach who takes his team to a playoff perhaps 1 in 5 but have we any reason to have expected more? Are we just now figuring out with a sub winning record? It just does not come down to 1 game. Stan will haby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
First there is the inability to manage the QB position and the offense. The decision to back Keenum who had a statistical win advantage over Foles and experience over Mannion and any hot draft prospect Then there is the narrow minded overconfidence in the OL and Todd Gurley. The belief that TA makes that much difference after the first two failed. He has gambled and is losing.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
to know his limitations and that he is nowhere near the caliber of QB we should be fielding as our starter? I knew this at "Case Keenum is our starter" Nothing personal but enough is enough.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
3 conseutive weeks with opportunity to tie or win game end in INT Defense is not at fault. Keenum at the helm and without further critcism in this post the results beg the question Geoff time finally? 3 weeks of wasted opportunities and valuable experience.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotewaterfield Before Fisher and Snead took over the Rams were indeed the "laughing stock" of the NFL. They systematically got rid of 20 or so players who never make any other teams and for the most part didn't even get a tryout. So here we are in the 5th year of what would normally be a 6 yr rebuilding plan. While we have a few "stars' on defense (Donald, Quinn) this is not an 85by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
don't tell me... for us to keep getting better until wasting picks and development of our franchise QB is forgotten because we won the division or even the SB. How many young starters get their shot because the incumbent is absolutely incompetent or can't play anymore. No those decisions are usually wisely made prematurely. We are a very passive reactive organization. We make reaby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com

I really cannot stand this team. I liked them better last year and they were lousy. I have been beating a drum about our defense not looking great all offseason and with Quinn coming off surgery and back issues we are in trouble. Well now we know just how in trouble we are.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
Keenum had a clean pocket most of the day. Boras had design roll-outs to help Keenum find passing lanes - great job Rams WRs played disciplined ran great routes and overmatched Detroits DBs Keenum will need to sustain that seemingly unsustainable level of play this week to retain his job IMO If our defense needs to step up our offense needs to seize the opportunity to become the streby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com

I was so proud to see the development.by BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
I have clearly been dissatisfied with the end results and I do believe we need more of a spark and consistency on offense. The offense is growing. It is getting better scheme wise and we seem to have several playmakers starting to make plays. I don't think we have asked or demanded enough from our OL or QB yet and that is probably the difference but this actually is a winning team with betterby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
No two QBs are alike and the same set of stats will not comment on the way a team wins or how it was managed or lead. Perhaps what you say is true but the fact is Geoff is expected to be a superior talent and if it is just learning how to win and avoiding mistakes for a rookie we should not take it so badly. Keenum is the focal point because Jeff made it that way. Geoff has been questioneby BumRap - RamsFootballFans.com
