QuoteThe pro bowl is a popularity contest. That's the narrative but..... Look at the pro bowl rosters every year, its hard to argue with most selections. There will always be a difference of opinion on a few guys, but for the most part they get it right.by laram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRam Fan Teacher You seem to be more positive than I can ever remember. I like it! :thumbsup It gives me more confidence about what's going to happen with this team. For years you have gotten on me for being so negative about the team and franchise.

QuoteMamaRAMa Here's a thought.... Fisher was hired by Kroenke, knowing that his record was mediocre, but since the goal was to move the Rams to L.A. from the beginning, it was the perfect hire. Sure, the rhetoric spewed at the time was to provide fans with a winning product but that wasn't really what they wanted or needed .... at that time. The hiring of Fisher had a purpose, and that purposeby laram - RamsFootballFans.com

I've noticed as have others. He has always been a bum with inconsistent hands. Leading anything at a receiving position averaging only 40 targets per year, would never be a consideration in a real football discussion. Couple that with what the Rams have marched out at receiver, its a non-starter.. He received his most targets in 2016 and his most exposure. His warts became more promiby laram - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams TE Lance Kendricks falls 1 yard short of $250K Alden Gonzalez ESPN Staff Writer Facebook LOS ANGELES -- One freakin' yard. For Lance Kendricks, the Los Angeles Rams' sixth-year tight end, it meant $250,000. Kendricks finished the 2016 season with 50 catches for 499 yards. One more receiving yard would've given him 500 -- enough to trigger a $250,000 incentive, ESPN's Field Yaby laram - RamsFootballFans.com

Les Snead was the catalyst for drafting a lot of the players, especially on offense. Moving up to draft a perceived game breaking wr in the first round. Ever seen that move before?

Quotedzrams Yeah, the fact that zero offensive players have been hits while many of the D players have been is near proof to me that the coaching is the issue. What are the chances that a scouting staff can't draft ANY good offensive players when most of the defensive players drafted are good or at least solid contributors? Mind boggling.

Quotedzrams Except Fisher was ultimately in charge of personnel too. I’m starting to think the clock is running out on them dismissing Snead. The longer this drags out the more I believe Snead is safe. The longer it takes the more indecisive it shows them to be. Maybe they are really that indecisive and incompetent. That would be scary… So I guess you haven't considered the possibilityby laram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRamFanInPA Funny, I thought he would be a Larry Allen type Guard AT WORST, when they drafted him. Now, I feel that even an average starter would be a steal at this point. His end of season interview, just screamed "I don't love football" to me.by laram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteRampage2K- "In L.A., Rams ownership gave Jeff Fisher an extension before firing him a week later." How is this guy that stupid? Must have heard that on sports talk radio and ran with it.8-) That's just nit-picking. A week after the extension was announced he was fired, right? C'mon man.by laram - RamsFootballFans.com
I think like Larry Allen he's a phone booth mauler. At tackle you have to not only be more athletic, but more technically sound because you're facing better athletes with an array of pass rushing moves. I would keep him and try and re-train him inside before giving up on him. If he turns into a HOF guard will anybody have any concerns.by laram - RamsFootballFans.com

Or are you buying into the media hype? They have not inquired about any of the above guys. I like what they're doing because they had help putting together the list. There is something to be gained by meeting with all of them. They're needs to be some copious note taking in those meetings. If I were Les Snead I would be dusting off my resume. :yesby laram - RamsFootballFans.com
The Rams record since Demoff came aboard. 41-82-1 So just because a person has a job, doesn't automatically make them qualified for the job. The Rams as a franchise haven't had a winning record since 2003 so....maybe they are pinheads!by laram - RamsFootballFans.com
