QuoteSpeed_Kills And because they had Matt Ryan pulling the trigger. NE was geared to stop the run and did on the previous play for the very reason you say the Falcons should have run They went with Ryan and when you have a Ryan you can do what the Falcons did and normally the QB does not take a sack on a play where he could have simply thrown the ball away If the Falcons had Rex Grossmanby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamsFanSinceLA On the Pats 22, less than 4 minutes to go, you gotta run the ball there. Eat the clock and at the very least kick a FG. Should have been game over right there. It's so obvious,:confusedby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRockRam Man, I'm so tired of the constantly changing rules. I hate the ball being placed at the 25 for non-returned KO's. I hate placing the ball at the 15 for PATs. I hate the rules for how to sack a QB. Leave the game alone. The OT rules are fine as they are. At least it is that you can't win by winning the coin toss and then kicking a 60 yard FG. Frankly, I don't like theby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteLMU93 Then two pass attempts from the Patriots 23 (and holding penalty) with less than four minutes left that backed them out of easy FG range. This is how they lost the game, plain and simple. The Falcons should've run the ball 3 straight times, ran time off the clock or forced the Pats to burn their timeouts. They would've kicked a FG, then up by 11 and the Pats literally have onlyby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteJamesJM I was actually rather pleased that Atlanta played their 'full game' right to the end instead of sitting back on their heels the way Fisher would have done. Didn't work, or course, but even so. :laughing The running game is a big part of their game though. Late inthe 4th when Julio made that great catch, they were in FG range. Run the all 3 times, eat time off the clock and kick aby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com

I think the final score was 38-14. Great pass and catch on the YouTube video. Didn't Lydell Mitchell spell Thomas in mop up duty?by six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Turned him into a Prima Donna. Yeah, the OL didn't create huge holes, but it was apparent that Gurley ran tentatively and was significantly weaker.by six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn QuoteRockRamYou need good solid D, but it doesn't have to be all world. Scheme is critical as is adaptability. What you DO need is an all-world Offense. . To me that's an overgeneralization. It doesn't account for teams like Seattle and SF making the superbowl in the recent past. I think one of the lessons of the superbowl is don't take your lessons from just one superbowl.by six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax I don't think anyone was on board with giving up all those picks for Goff.. There were MANY members on board, but I wasn't one of them. :confusedby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteleafnose yes. They gambled on GRob yes. They gambled on Aaron Donald I still would have liked Bridgewater or Carr from that draft. to some degree taking offensive linemen later, which Fish was prone to do, has some lower risk higher reward to it. Aaron Donald was not a gamble though. He was considered the best DT in the draft and a 10 year starter for sure. The only reason he wasby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax Odds are they will incur more injuries this year. And every team says the same thing about their record. "We should have won more games" Bottom line is you didn't. You won 4. And you haven't had a winning record in 13 years so shut up and win first. Then we'll talk about how good you are. You are absolutely correct IMO. I have ZERO expectations for the 2017 Rams.

Other than the Green Bay Packers, all 3 other teams can run the football. That's what sticks out to me. If not for Aaron Rodgers superior QB play, it would've been 4 teams. A great QB cannot put the entire team on his shoulders. You have be able to run and stop the run at a high success rate. Of the 4 remaining teams, NE is the best at doing this and they have Tom Brady to boot. Green Bay will prby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax Denver won it last year, but its not fair to say that Manning was an average QB or worse. He was an anomaly. He was a coach on the field, actually better than a coach on the field. He was a wily old HOF QB who had just enough left to go with his command of the Super Bowl environment. I think the Denver team last year is an example of how you can win with a suffocating defense.

Quotezn QuoteRamsfsninmd ...into Tyreek Hill? Reid uses him well. Is it Austin or coaching/scheme/play calling? Watch Austin and watch Hill. Hill is a natural receiver, Austin isn't. With Austin his best bet is always that multiple weapon/combined yards role. He's dangerous in that role--run, catch, be a decoy. There are some things you would expect from a true receiver you will juby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteNewMexicoRam Dropped that bomb that would have gotten them within 4 points. He would do that at ND as well. Which is why I didn't want him on the Rams. He also alligator armed a perfectly thrown ball on his outside shoulder down the right sideline. If caught he would've scored. I cussed a lot in this game:confusedby six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
Houston has allowed the fewest yards, but NE has allowed the fewest points. Really, what did Houston in was 2 maybe 3 potential TD passes not executed by the receivers. The game would've been a lot closer.by six2stack - RamsFootballFans.com
