Likely not in the 3rd round. There are too many options there for the Rams to pick up a potential starter (i.e. OL, LB, or RB). Wouldn't rule out selecting a QB on a flyer in the later rounds, though.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamBum <snipped> So maybe the Rams signing those big contracts will end up being a good idea. We all know that salaries will keep going up (unless something unexpected comes along) and what look like big numbers now may not look quite as imposing a year from now. But it's more than just Littleton and Fowler, right? We have, arguably, the best CB in the league due for an extensiby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Unique thing about Mahommes, Watson, Rodgers, and Wilson is: Even if the DC makes the perfect play call; and the defense gets lined up correctly; and, the unit executes to perfection...these four QB's have the mobility/presence of mind to turn bad situations for them into (at the very least) plays where there is minimal loss. And in the case of Mahommes, Wilson, and Watson, many times they canby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Goff place a higher emphasis on ball security in the pocket. Not sure if that's strength vs. fundamentals vs. pocket presence issue, but this needs to improve as well for him to become a better player.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteoldschoolramfan O'Connell for Rams OC.............Just wondering what his job would be since McVay is calling the plays? I'd think that, as OC, he'd also be in line for QB coach. It's not like Waldron has a great resume.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Quoteno name Agree with all of that with the exception of Brockers. Caveat to that is that Brockers better be making half 65% of what he got paid last year. That probably means he's gone too. I like Brock too and would love to keep him. And I'm not so sure that, given his experience (and relatively healthy status) that we'd find a cheaper replacement that is just as effective. But alas, I donby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Championship game...PPR league. Thielen's 2nd game back from injury with a couple of more extra targets to be had with Dalvin Cook out. The Seahawks will pound the Cards on the ground which should open things up over the top for Metcalf. What are your thoughts?by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotedzrams Quotezn Quotedzrams I've been saying for the past month: Goff must have a top 5 OL or the offense is doomed against the stronger and physical teams. He is horrible under pressure. Besides Goff, Josh Allen and Sam Darnold are the only other two starting QBs in the league that have a sub 60 QB Rating under pressure for the last two seasons. Those types of numbers are not sustainableby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

Gurley gets to 1,000 yds....Means OLINE will be able to establish a running game. Rams can control the clock. Rams can utilize play action. IMHO......Rams can do it!

QuoteSpeed_Kills and I'm being serious here Is there a chance that McVay had prepared the offense for the Ravens blitzing 60% but that Goff just couldn't handle it? Goff is not reading the field... he isn't anticipating the blitz very well.

QuoteRamgator When the Ravens did the option, the Rams should have MADE him hand it off to a RB. Matthews bit and Jackson took off. Early, I would have liked to have seen the Rams HAMMER Jackson even if he handed off. WHEN teams start doing that, we'll see what he's really made of.

Yes, I interpreted his comment as being critical of the Rams' red zone offense this/last season. I thought he was saying that our offense operates best on a longer field.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
The more and more I think about it...I don't think that it's all on him. His QB looks utterly confused and I'm not sure he (the QB) is processing what's in front of him pre-snap or what's unfolding post-snap. McVay simply can't do it all for him.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamUK Donald, are you kidding me???? Did you hear the stat that's he's been double teamed 500 times since the start of last season. A bit knee jerk methinks. Yes, on the "knee jerk." But he's right...the Rams are being outcoached - badly.by ramBRO - Game Time Forum
Yes, it will be interesting to see how Gurley's knee feels today or tomorrow given the work load. And I understand that, even if he were to feel fine, it doesn't mean that it's a situation that no longer needs to be monitored. My problem is (and has been) Gurley/McVay/the organization operating under (what has appeared to be) an inflexible "pitch count" regardless of how he feels orby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Or, at least that was the argument earlier in the season. But I agree...that was brutal and we were fortunate to be playing against a team with an inept offense. A couple of things: 1) McVay may, in fact, have learned to address this front. But our inexperienced OL and/or depleted roster may have hindered execution. 2) Addressing it may be possible against the likes of Carolina, but Chby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteSpeed_Kills <snipped> Limit Goff passes .... dont put too much on him and let the run game win it Easily McVay’s best coached game offensively this year given the circumstances I agree. But as accurate as it was, it's difficult to imagine "limiting" Goff given the team's financial commitment. Have to say, though...he did make (I think) 4 VERY GOOD passes tonight.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
