5Qs, 5As with Blogging the Boys: How do Cowboys add flavor to their ‘vanilla’ offense? Evan Craig Following the last three games at SoFi Stadium, the Los Angeles Rams (+6.5) hit the road again to take on the Dallas Cowboys (-6.5) who are 6.5-point favorites at DraftKings Sportsbook. LA is trying to make it back to .500 after an indefensible loss to the Steelers to end their homestandby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteRampage2K- That was the ultimate tide change of the game…. Steelers and all of their fans were lifeless until that dreadful play :banghead Completely agree, R2K.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteJamesJM and I'm not saying he is or even that I suspect he is... McVay, I believe, is hesitant to play any player that in his mind is only 99% ready. But if Evans is a bust I hope a RB is a high priority in the draft and NOT a continuation of what's happening now. I thought both Henderson and Freeman did VERY well, (mentioned before that IMO they were about the only positives in that gby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteAlbaNY_Ram Noteboom's salary is only $1.5M this year. He gets paid just over $83,000 a week over the 18 week season. If they trade him after the Cowboys game they get out from under the remaining 10 salary payments. So they would save $833,333 this year. That amount would be added to their current cap space of $4.3M, raising it to $5.1M Then next year all remaining cap obligations cby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
The yardage gap between Puka Nacua and every other rookie WR is massive Cameron DaSilva one could have predicted that Puka Nacua would be the best wide receiver in the 2023 class after being drafted in the fifth round, yet that’s exactly what he’s been through seven games. In fact, he’s already emerged as one of the most productive receivers in the league, regardless of draft class.by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteAlbaNY_Ram Quote But even putting that aside, too, my eyeballs are telling me that Jackson has clearly outplayed Boom at LOT, and Dotson has definitely beat Boom out at RG. Definitely agree about Dotson over Boom at RG. But personally I don't have the scouting skills to determine on my own whether Boom or Jackson is the better LT. I have to rely on those who can do that. QuoteBoom mby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteAlbaNY_Ram Here's a possibility: Boom is a better LT than Jackson. But Boom can't stay healthy. I don't have access to PFF and I know they aren't the be-all, end-all as far as performance ... but I wonder what they have to say about Boom and Jackson. Let’s set PFF aside. I’m not their biggest fan, anyway. I can’t get around Boom’s inability to stay healthy. It alone is a deal breby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
LA Rams remain on track to season's expectations Bret Stuter Despite a 3-4 start, the LA Rams are consistent with pre-season projections. So why are fans frustrated? The saying that 'Patience is a virtue,' may be true, but it's not exactly in overabundant supply among fans of the LA Rams today.

Rams not ruling out kicker change, could bring in candidates this week Cameron DaSilva Maher’s three misses against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Maher missed from 51 and 53 yards, and also yanked an extra-point attempt way left, leaving seven points on the board and helping set up the Steelers with great field position.

Sean McVay still considers Joe Noteboom a starter for Rams Skyler Carlin Noteboom was active for the Los Angeles Rams in Week 7 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers, but he still wasn’t a starter along the offensive line. Even though Noteboom didn’t see the field on Sunday, Sean McVay still considers him a starter for the Rams. “I look at Joe as still a starter,” McVay said. “Joe is woby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Another gem of a post, Torino. Why in the world did you wait so long to start posting here, man?by Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
As he gets acclimated once again to NFL hits it’s very likely that his numbers will go way up. As to Zack Evans? I’ve got no clue. Other than to say that he’s hardly the only rookie for whom there were high expectations that are not seeing game snaps.

Here’s OntarioRam… Another rough outing for Kendrick. Not sure how they can keep trotting him out there with the recent gun charges added on top of it. You have to think such a move is bad for morale in the locker-room. What must the players behind him be thinking? I don't think we can just assume that Kendrick is showing himself to be the superior player in practice. It is possible but I do nby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Questions that make some Ram fans squirm. I might add. Let’s look at these Ram O results objectively, okay? Do we think we have a good enough HC/play caller? Do we have a quality QB? Is our RB room sufficient, assuming run plays are called? Is our OL adequate? Is our WR corps good enough? Are we okay at TE, assuming that they’re being used in the O sufficiently? And yet ouby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Here’s Jacobarch… Here's the problem with 11 personnel. Since McVay took the league by storm his first season as the rams coach. Teams since then have been scheming how to beat it. And there are certain teams with Defenses made to beat that personnel grouping. IE Steelers, 49ers, Eagles, and sprinkle in a couple of other teams in there. Point is, McVay has no Plan B, or option in place incaseby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com
Here’s TexRams86… McVay is a good to great head coach with some huge flaws. As a playcaller, he gets emotional and outsmarts himself at times (see empty set call to start the second half). He refuses to give up play calling duties and, even more surprising, continues to believe that his scheme can beat anyone at any time as long as the players execute.
