I have said that Fisher has not put the best support system around Goff for his development. They are inexperienced and unproven. And I doubt they are very smart if only based on what's important to Fisher.by max - RamsFootballFans.com
Quote21Dog Quotemax Fisher teams are inherently tough and hard hitting, they have never been viewed as smart, and that reflects on him. Couldn't agree more. And this speaks volumes for some things we are concerned about. The constant dumb penalties. The inconsistencies in play. And even the handling of Goff and his slow progress. It all stems back to Fisher. A team is a reflectiby max - RamsFootballFans.com
Fisher isn't THAT stupid, I don't think. He's at least smart enough to realize he can buffalo the LA media who are stupid, and will buy his irrational explanations. What's important here, and my takeaway, is that Fisher is a fatally flawed game day decision maker. He can get away with with inferior decisions against weaker coaches but he will ultimately fail against the stronger coachesby max - RamsFootballFans.com
Here's my brain on this subject. Fisher said... “We were up by 11, which in my brain is three scores: it’s touchdown, two-point conversion, and a field goal. What I want to do is, I want to try to get to 13. I was thinking if I can just get to 13, because if I got to 13, then that’ll put pressure on their place kicker for two scores, because he’d been struggling.” I don't get that train ofby max - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteguinnessram Quotemax Imagine if the Browns stayed at #2 and took Wentz. I think its quite possible that Wentz would not look anywhere near as good as a Brown. CLE was ahead of BALT 20-0 up until they had an XP blocked and should have beaten MIA but for a half decent PK. I think they were ahead in all 3 of their losses and I could have made the argument that they are as good or betby max - RamsFootballFans.com
It was actually funny cause one of out naysayers friends here was taking shots at the Rams for not signing TruJohnson long term after he made one good play yesterday. Then Evans proceeded to go nuts. I said, let Tru show it on the field for more than 1 year, then sign him up.by max - RamsFootballFans.com

Imagine if the Browns stayed at #2 and took Wentz. I think its quite possible that Wentz would not look anywhere near as good as a Brown. So I take that into consideration when trying to visualize Wentz on the Rams. I just don't know where he'd be playing for Fisher. And conversely, I wonder how Goff would be doing in Philly or Dallas if he was playing under a more QB friendly coaching sby max - RamsFootballFans.com
and its not a good one, IMO, What if the XP gets blocked and the Bucs return it for 2 pts? That happened in week 1 in the Baltimore game. Then the Rams are up only 9 pts. So just maybe Fisher didn't want to take any chances at all with the ball and QB sneaked it. Notice that he didn't risk passing it. I'm sure all you older Rams fans remember the FG attempt against the Vikings in 197by max - RamsFootballFans.com
Well according to Fisher Keenum gives us best chance to win. Does anyone think Keenum would give us best chance to win if we had Wentz or Prescott? Is there a plausible explanation of how that is possible? Does anyone wonder like I do what the Rams think of their decision to draft Goff now? What I do know that there's no way Keenum is better than Wentz or Prescott. Short term or longby max - RamsFootballFans.com
Quote9er8er Because I'm capable of differentiating good quality of play from poor quality of play regardless of whether or not the opposing team(s) made more critical errors.

Wentz playing well doesn't hurt the Rams. If anything its a good sign that the QBs in this draft were a lot better than many in the media were saying. People were laughing when Mike Mayock was saying that Wentz and Goff were just as good if not better than Winston and Mariota. Well, so far Wentz has shown well, and now we just have to wait on Goff. That's all we can do, and there is no definiby max - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRampage2K- Quotepromomasterj Hmm. I guess it's possible. Let's see - simplified the gameplan, didn't ask the qb to do too much, played lights out defense and special teams, ran the ball effectively and blocked. And why again can't Goff step on the field?

Quote9er8er I'm simply making him out to be a pocket passer, not a QB that you can get more out of running the ball than passing the ball. Brissett has not been impressive or good as a passer tonight, but he hasn't needed to be. Goff will need to be. And what I'm saying is that Goff is a more talented passer than Brissett. And therefore, BB would be able to get more out of him as a passer tby max - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRockRam Even when Goff gets elevated to #1, I don't think there is any limiting factor as to why Keenum couldn't be #2 the remainder of this year. In fact, it would probably be better for Goff to have Keenum #2 because he'll be activated on game day and it would give him someone with NFL game experience to talk things over with. I do think that after this year, assuming Goff doesn't coby max - RamsFootballFans.com

When your offense stinks, what good does it do to point fingers at other teams? Your offense isn't getting better, your just putting up a distraction to the problem. The Rams offense stinks. Plain and simple. Someone needs to fix it, and Fisher is probably not the guy.by max - RamsFootballFans.com
You may be right. This stuff is out there. And I don't know for sure either way. If Goff plays well, it will all go away. But if he's a bust, the rumor mill will go wild. And then you'll get everyone in LA digging for the real story. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.by max - RamsFootballFans.com
