As for the rookies lack of technique and lack of even training/whiteboarding/meeting coaches.... well, that needs to be addressed in a new CBA. It makes a watered down NFL and annihilates the middle class of NFL players. It seems like a problem they can fix if they just sit and negotiate. Every team's coaching staff would be behind it...and I would think that would nudge the owners to the tabby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
It's said to be a game of inches...so it makes sense that 1or 2 plays/mistakes, etc will change the outcome of a game. No team should let it get to that...but that's the case cuz of parity and great talent on every team...nearly every team. ;) But, that's why the NFL is the best sport....cuz any team CAN make the play-offs and even win the SB.

If one watches the Goff passes....it's clear he's thinking too much... *** when he isn't sacked quickly from a OL miss ***when his WRs drop balls...how many 5-6 passes in PS?? ***Those nervous feet? That's what I love about the kid...his feet, grit, and ball placement. Like Peyton's crazy feet! lol IMO - Goff threw 1 bad INT...another tipped INT which I don't include...and a few high pby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com

How is the new Madden? Is it better than last year? I have bough the game every year for 24yrs. ir I thought last year's Madden was the best simulation...and am still playing it intently.

before clearing waivers. That's why the Rams have not had their PS yet...the 24hr limit has not passed yet and teams are free to sign anyone that was cut yesterday. Today, by 1pm PST/4pm EST(iirc) they will start to add players to their PS that have not been claimed. Someone please correct anything I said above cuz I just made it all up. ;) I just wanted to practice my "convincing posby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com

tho...I think he might have been a very good 4-3 DE...but they woulda done that if they thought it was worth it. Most teams play 3Wrs and defenses are in nickel for much of the time...I think we will make some big roster moves and bring back some more safetys for the BigNickel style of play...unless GW is doin a hybrid of the BigNickel using LBs. I thought they'd just keep 5 LBs. Anyway, theyby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
where a team must be it's own farm system to some degree. Things change too fast for teams and just when you geta good mix...FA blows up the team again. It creates this IMMEDIACY in the NFL for fans and smaller and smaller windows of timewhere all the pieces are finally together. It seems no window is larger than 2-3yrs. I dunno, it's a bit depressing to me and I wish the NFL would aby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
you will swallow that mouth throw-up....with a smile?! Right?! ;) Or if the Rams offense fails maybe Fisher gets canned...and you'd be happy for that...right? We could start over on offense and defense & ST staffs...and then new players to fit the new schemes... and a new shiny offense for our 3rd stringer to learn. Ya just gotta be happy about that? Right?! Change is good...especiaby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
and whether it works out for them or not....and hosing the Rams for "goin for it" with Goff. And for the underachieving, ACL compromised poster boy in SBradford? SB was dealt AGAIN for high value a 1st and a 3rd/4th that could be higher? Quite a lot to pay for a broken QB that's injury prone, no?! ;) Heck, I wish we shoulda made that trade for Bradford...so we can be competitby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com

by winning games in CK's fashion...but Goff will rise -hopefully- cuz he's a better passing talent. imo The next 2years are limbo years while waiting for the new stadium and so it was a good move to draft a QB and grow him for the next few years so that come opening day in Inglewood...we'll have a promising QB starter. That's the plan, I think. Goff was not as ready for prime time as they haby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com

good post...especially yer first sentence about staying competitive during a QBs rookie learning curve... versus handing him the reigns when he's not ready and throwing away the year.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
then, the UDFA McCleod got good or something..... and signed a huge contract. Rams know defense...it's the offense that needs consistency. imo We have guys that can fill McCleod's cleats. I actually kinda like the idea of having 2 Safetys that are violent hitters ala CamChancellor style for our left & right Safety setup.by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
we are giving the Titans our Comp 3rd rounder and we are keeping the higher 3rd rounder. Again, thankfully! ;)by SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
just look around the NFL...there are only a handful of QBs that stand out consistently...maybe a 1/3rd? Anyway, solid, w/upside QB play was the missing link for this team that has talent everywhere now and QB was decried as the missing link. Unlike the Titans, where they have a QB but no team around him. Would you rather have 52 good guys + 1 avg QB? Or 1 good QB and 52 avg guys? It wiby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com
you said that. I said we won't be passing 30-35x per game...but we need to pass 20-25 and those passes have to be good.. THAT is why we drafted Goff. He will be better than Keenum & Mannion at doing that.... later than earlier it seems but guys develop at different speeds. Same thought as drafting Gurley at #10...and waiting for him....cuz the talent is there and worth it when he's reaby SunTzu_vs_Camus - RamsFootballFans.com

not at all. He's everything I thought I saw and the same tough kid that grew into a stud at college. imo His head is swimming and he's playing so slowly right now. I'd have hoped for a faster learning curve for him but it will take more time for things to slow down for him.
