Who do you recommend they sign and do they have the money to do that? Let's see your list? I have to presume they are doing what THEY feel is best for the team based on the assets they have. I wonder why the kickers we may want to go sign are presently "unsigned". Haversik is certainly not ideal!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Looks like he was stepped on. Doesn't appear to be related to previous pathologyby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Could not agree more!!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't understand this "go out and find a great quarterback and be aggressive" confusion. Everyone is aware this is a rebuild year and we have no money. Has something miraculously happened mid season to dump money in our account? Check out the 49ers cap (and ours next year!) We did have another backup who had an unexpected personal issue. It's difficult to come off the street and leby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
When looking back at Kiper's book, his measurables compare favorably to Von Miller. I wonder how he performed his 1st six games? I would be insanely happy if he turns out like his fellow alum Leonard Little. I'm glad we got him and hope he improves each game!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I love this kid and most think he is highly talented and a steal where we got him. However like you, I'm not impressed by those holes so big several of our posters could run through at once. I discount those highlights every time and instead focus on the linemen!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Agree with you.. I go to all the games and seems like we are always outnumbered. Damn Philly and 49er fans in my section 😡 It was like this even with our glory year. Not sure why. Maybe the city is so big and the stadium so nice it brings out the fans for opposing teams. I hope they find a solution because it is pathetic!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Posters who keep asking why don't we sign this player and that player and why don't we upgrade these positions should probably read that article twice.by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Smart move now while they can get "something" for him. They were not going to sign him next year. He is replaceable especially with the development we currently have. He has chronic bad knees that require rest and will never get better. It was a smart move at the right time. Everything pointing towards a great roster next year. We will need to draft ALOT of positions but will have moneby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Great move. There is more to this medically speaking. We did just fine !by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Great post and right on. I'm enjoying this year also and have the proper realistic expectations. (actually impressed) Another good draft coming and unique to our team for almost a decade! The next two years could be ours!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I could not agree more. Well said!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com

That tutu pass was a beautiful call. Very close indeed to a touchdown! Looked to me like stafford and coopers timing was a bit off.by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I agree. Very proud of this team. It was very clear to all we sacrificed to get a Super Bowl trophy a few years ago. We ran into cap hell and this season was a rebuilding one . (Still worth the trophy to me). Whoever had expectations that we would be competitive this year was oblivious to facts and must be under anesthesia .. (shrug). Too bad for them for expecting more. So far we have been extrby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I played raquetball with Jim Brown in LA about 25 years ago and he told me Butkus was the toughest player he ever faced.by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I feel we have decent running backs ("enough talent") and Taylor's increase in ability also is balanced negatively by the financial impact he would have. Better to spend those resources on the DLINE to meby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Agree with you totally. If people have unrealistic expectations it's their fault. I'm actually pleasantly surprised and remain happy with McVay and Sneads track record and our Super Bowl trophy! Patiently waiting for next year to get upset about losses!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I say if your that close, keep running the ball behind your lineman each down until you get in. If you can't do that, you don't deserve it anyways and need new players. Like the old Vince Lombardi Ice Bowl story when the Packers were on the goal line against the Cowboys with 5 seconds left in the 60s. Supposedly Bart Starr came to the sideline to ask Lombardi what play to call during the timeoby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
"Once the niners blitzed more in the second half and had tighter coverage on the shorter routes the Rams windows were closing too fast." Why can't WE do that!?by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Lower your expectations and be acceptingly realistic to remain sane...by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I actually asked AD this question 2 weeks ago when I was at dinner with him. He said he has always volunteered to Sean that he wanted to do this and to draw up a play but Sean laughs and never does it.by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Yep... ride it until the wheels fall off and that might be sooner than later!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
"The cupboard is bare" "I do not trust Snead with player evaluations" "He is only good at spending other people's money" "He is over his head" My my!!! I am wondering what experience you have in the league to make these accusations..... Wildly reckless and unfounded IMO. He doesn't need you to trust him. I imagine he doesn't even care what you thiby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
Agree 100% As a removed super fan for 45 years without football coaching or NFL experience, I will not be a backseat driver. Especially to someone with Mcvays experience and record (and other coaches). A dialogue is fine but making far from lucid intelligent critical comments is so annoying. I wish there was some way to know which posters actually have coaching or NFL experience so their commenby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm pretty confident they will have a kicker by opening day, and one they believe is the best one they can get this year. Next year they have more money. Still glad we got a Super Bowl Win and gonna have a couple down years unlike almost all the other teams that DID NOT get a ring!!by LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
They can always use a tight end for short yardage? AD told me he kept volunteering to Sean for him to draw up a play and jet him run (like fridge Perry) but McVay would not entertain it. OLine looks bigger and more powerful than last year. I believe Bennet is still going to be better than either backup last year. Only place to me that is not as good as last year is DLine (including edges)andby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
I see this move as a trepidation on the health of Noteboom. He is at some level of being injured now and possibly lack of confidence of staying healthy based on his history. Maybe anchrum and Dotson fight it out for R guard with the other a young and suitable large sized backup. McClendon backs up the tackles ? I believe they would cut bait with noteboom if they could and are tempted by it. Maybeby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
He was one of my favorite players and someone with measurable as good as the top backs to ever play. ESPN 30 for 30 series has (I believe) some of the best writers around and did a story on his "The Best that Never Was" that details his life. I don't think he ever got the correct surgery and rehab. Not sure why he got cut, but at 80% he was better than most. But John Robinson knew runnby LaDoc - RamsFootballFans.com
