QuoteSpeed_Kills You can curse at the refs that's a relief because i do it ALOT, like i have no off switch. doesn't even have to be a rams game : )by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteidaram z what makes you say he's washed up? i haven't followed irvin at all so i know nothing. his stats look impressive and he has a ton of post season experience. i thought he's a locker room problem but i could be confusing him with burflickby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRampage2K- Quoteoldschoolramfan Not really D Hall's point though....he is saying Peters is better in off coverage where he can see things better. Maybe they should play to his strengths and not try to make him something he is not. interesting point - I thought that's what phillips is all about - setting scheme and rolls to take advantage of individuals skill sets/strengths.by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSpeed_Kills Its not a two team race... the Panthers are in it too... this. keep your eye on the panthers. i expect them to handle the steelers thursday night. aside from home field advantage, watch out for the eagles too.by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
i think the defense is gathering. i think the punch in the nose this past weekend, complete with some blood drawn is part of the process. fowler coming in, oo coming back, aqib will be back eventually, peters will hopefully heal. if we have to face the saints twice this year to get to the big dance i'd rather loose the 1st than the 2nd. hard to beat a team of the caliber of the saints oby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBrad Gagnon Rams' 'Dream Team' Will Fail Because They Can't Stop Anyone On Sunday, Donald was the only Rams player to even touch Brees, i could've sworn i saw fowler pressured brees and hit his throwing arm as he was passing, sending it of course and incomplete. am i the only one who saw that?by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteramithard That fake punt challenge call was not shown at all on the replays boards in stadium.....not once!!!!.....I knew we got jobbed...did they show it on TV?? really?! not shown once?! yes. we saw it multiple times from multiple angles on tv. all 3 announcers including troy aikman who is a huge rams homer and mike pereira said it was a 1st down. i thought so to but nobody on thiby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com

respect your vantage point but i remain unconvinced. look forward to seeing the saints again this year. the rams can learn more than the saints can.by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com

players at risk in 2019: suh saffold fowler mannion joyner westbrooks troy hill sam shields ramik wilson cory littleton is a rfa next year according to spotrac so we have something to say about him. if we don't extend him i would put a 1st round tender on him. i would prefer to keep suh, saffold, fowler (if he proves out) and mannion (at a reasonable cap hit). i think our cap spby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn QuoteSUretHing Wow. One study last year had him facing multiple blockers 83% of the time. Here's some more AD stats from this year: He's tied for 2nd on the all-time list of pass rushers in NFL history with 1.25 sacks per game on avg. Being double-teamed this year at a 70% rate compares to the player facing the SECOND most double-teams at 46% (JJ Watt). More: Quoby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
thanks for finding and posting this. i clicked play expecting to see and hear a young man with a bit of cockiness and arrogance. it's probably just my hope overcoming me but he looked and sounded to me like a humbled but confident young man. it would be great if the rams culture has gotten his attention already. given the right support system i would expect this guy can keep it togeby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteSUretHing IDK. Its quite strange to release Brown. He was active for the last 6 games and was first man up when a guard went down. idk either. i'm just hoping this means they've seen enough of noteboom to trust that he's their swing ol backup the rest of this year....by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteAlbaNY_Ram The Rams could rent Fowler for the rest of the year, let him leave as a FA, and get a comp pick for him. that's a good point AlbaNY. of course, the rams wouldn't get that comp pick until 2020, but then again neither would the jags. the best the jags can do if they hold onto fowler for the rest of this season is a 3rd round comp pick in 2020. and based on the sparse playing tby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteBigGame81 Just seems like the type of player Snead loves to get. Only 24, productive (14 career sacks in less than 3 seasons), still has upside and ultra-talented, character risk but when does Snead and Co. shy away from that? Like Marcus Peters, still on his rookie deal and could be given a 5th year option. I think they get him for a 4th or 5th round pick. the jags declined his 5by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
Quote21Dog Hekker and Shields. Big Mo starting going the Rams' way after the great punt that was downed on the 1. agreed. shields also caught the pass from hekker on the fake punt. special teams gets a game ball for me and it's tossed at hekker who heard the wake up call from that recent espn article that called him out as the 1 player on the rams that need to step up {seriously?}.by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteSpeed_Kills they had a chance to get Peterson and they trade for Apple crazy well we know the Rams can't have him because the Cards would not trade him in the division but man he would look good and horns the saints cap space this year alone prevented them from truly pursuing peterson. they only had 1.4m available. apple cost them 1m leaving them 355k cap space today. they're very stby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
i'm sincerely grateful that you did not post the entire article because i might've wasted my time reading it, Mama. i cut & pasted the entire leagues punting stats from espn nfl stats into excel after reading this and in a minute or less i could see Hekker is in the top 3 so far this year in a) % of punts downed inside the 20 b) lowest # of punts returned c) fewest return yards per puby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn QuoteSpeed_Kills It's a little frustrating...it means that sometimes there's no real conversation. Some responses are not on-point counter-arguments to what is actually being said. A: Want some breakfast? B: Can't today, I have a blood draw later and I have to fast. A: I don't understand why you criticize eating breakfast. lol. that's everyday at work for me. must explby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRampage2K- I can't believe they'd put him on there with those two idiots and their "hot takes" right in front of him like that....

what a great time to be a rams fan when your head coach and qb have bad days, one of your top receivers and the starting lg get taken out by injuries and you still get to watch victory formations at the end of the game on the road. given that the announcers pointed out on the interception that that mcvay took the blame on that play call, i wouldn't bet against mcvay learning from his mistakesby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteCrazylegs He basically said that he thought the idea was a "cool idea" .....BUT...There won't be any sculpture at the new stadium because it is going to be a shared stadium that's too bad really. i would have no problem going to a rams home game and walking past statues of lance alworth, dan fouts, ld etc. on my way in . . . very cool he took the time to read and react to yby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
With a lot of help from the zebras, that is. yes, those 2 mysterious spots back to back on the gurley runs , holds on suh and donald, targeting kupp and cooks ~ you'd think the seahawks were still a darling of the league . .. proud of my boys fighting through adversity. glad they got the test.by george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotewaterfield You likely are not the only Ram fan to have been nervous about this game. i looked at it like this: the rams completely embarrassed the hawks late last year in their house. i've re-watched that game multiple times just for the entertainment value, drinking scotch, farting in multiple octaves and giggling myself to sleep (to steal a line from a ram bro). the hawks circled thisby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRams43 Rams trade for a vet OLB that is affordable. Could be a future pick or could be a current promising depth player, but it’s gotta happen. Gotta shore that up in this SB push year.

QuoteClassicalwit Quotegeorge_allen just flinging spagetti at the wall but, what about, when barron comes back, he moves to strong safety, johnson moves to free safety (i think that's where he played in college) and joyner moves to the slot cb (where he's worked before) with shields and nrc on the outside? is that a better line up than hatfield or hill starting as the 3rd cb? too many movemeby george_allen - RamsFootballFans.com
