Re: and no sacks allowed by the Rams - 6 months ago
QuoteSpeed_Kills Stafford was just cold. The announcers kept acting like the Niners were getting pressure but they weren’t. Stafford was just off but pulled it together! Profusely thanking Mother Nature. I think our first two drives should've ended in Whiner picks (thank God Hufanga is playing with the club on his hand). The weather forced McVay's hand and we HAD to run the ball.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

Not So Excited About Higbee's Return - 6 months ago
Quotemerlin <snipped> Higs isn't an elite pass threat or anything but holy crap have we suffered at TE in his absence. So if he's set to return... That's a big deal. You think so? I mean...I def think it'd be a morale booster. But Higbee was anything but a great player for us last season. Wasn't he banged up for most of the year even before the knee injury? He's been a goodby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

Re: With all the D-line talk - where are the sacks? - 6 months ago
Quotepromomasterj We're high (near top, I think) in pressure rate - but 24th in sacks. Pressure's great - but we need QB's on the ground to consistently get off the field. Verse is dominating at times - but not a lot of finishes. 4.5 sacks is pretty 'meh'. And what's going on with Young? Was expecting more of a breakout year from him since he's a 2nd year guy. He has 6 sacks. The eliteby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

Re: What is your opinion of Rob Havenstein? - 6 months ago
Quotesince68 Of the 80 Ts in the NFL that play regularly, where would you rank him? Havs is an above average RT that I'd place in the top 12 - 15 at his position.

Just So I Got This Straight: The Refs Called PI On The WR And DB On The Same Play? - 6 months ago
Was at the game and thought that was the call, but I didn't have the benefit of any TV analysis of the play. If that was, in fact, the call...I don't think that I've ever seen anything like that before. So, if a DB is caught holding onto a WR's arm and the WR takes a whack at the DB to get him off...that's a foul on both? This literally happens on every deep ball. Everyone at SoFi was cby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

I Think That McVay Is Stuck For Now - 7 months ago
1) IMO, the only time his offense somewhat resembles itself this season is when Tutu is serving as the 3rd WR (and he's targeted a couple of times). His speed needs to be respected and helps to loosen the defense so that Kupp and Puka can work the short and intermediate routes. 2) Demarcus Robinson OTOH is not nearly as fast as Tutu and can't stretch the defense. As a consequence, the field beby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Been posting here for a long time, don't know the # posts..... - 7 months ago
My assumption is that you've contemplated this for awhile. If that's the case, I wish you well in your endeavors. If, however, this just pooped into your head today...I'd merely ask that you take a day to sleep on it. It's been a frustrating season for sure...and even when we're enjoying a good one, complaints and grievances seem to outnumber the positive and moderate posts.

Re: We should trade for Mike Mayer - 7 months ago
I like Mayer, but have a couple of questions for you: 1) Yes, the Raiders drafted Brock Bowers and are exploiting his receiving talents. But are you sure they don't want to run 2-TE sets (where Mayer's run-blocking prowess would be more valued)? 2) It's been reported that the Rams and McVay were interested in moving up to draft Bowers this past draft. I suspect that it was more for his receby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

That'd Be Mighty Sweet, But... - 7 months ago
I'm not expecting much from him except for maybe being a morale booster for the team. We have to remember that he was banged up for much of last season and was pretty much factorless. Dare I say it...he was playing as though he was on his last legs (no pun intended). I hope that he can finish his career on a strong note, though (or, at least, on his own terms).by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
I've Said It Before, And I'll Say It Again... - 7 months ago
Todd Gurley was the engine that drove McVay's high-powered offenses in the 2017 and 2018 - not Goff...not Woody...not Kupp...and not McVay. I think that McVay realized this and made the hard push for CMC who has been the closest thing to TGIII. The only thing close to those years was the 1st handful of games in Stafford's first year. Everything else has been average, at best. Like you saiby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: The Rams changing the OL is reason for loss - 7 months ago
QuoteRamsDynasty The OL protection was trash. The Rams should have activated but not started both Jackson and Avila. The Rams would have been better served with Limmer at OC tonight. Jackson might be a better OC by seasons end but the lack of snaps and OL continuity was obvious tonight. They made Dolphins look like the Steelers. Yeah...continuity was def an issue (and likely to be expected).by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotecool_hand_luke <snipped> Going for 2 there is not an easy decision. For me the key is how much do you like your 2pt play call.
