Geez...all you guys act so entitled.... - 7 months ago
just a few years back they were battling for 1st pick in the draft....everything was lost before it even started.....you'd think that after all those many years chances at winning records and division titles would be greatly appreciated....I am not saying to put your head in the sand....facts are facts....after a surprise appearance in the playoffs last year aspiring higher this year was a gimme.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
If all your season is about is a SB...... - 7 months ago
then pretty much all seasons are done for. They are 1 game back in the division and play all 3 teams...They are 5-6.....go 4 and 2 and you have a winning season....win all 3 division games add jets and saints very well may have a division crown. You have Fiske, Verse, McCollough, Kam Kichens, Limmer, Dedich,all found in this draft...those are big wins. You have Turner, Puka, Young, Avila all gby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Don't need to have a crystal ball on this board to know the phrasing of many a post...LOL.... - 7 months ago
They are mediocre, they are weak, they have no talent, they are poorly coached.....etc...etc... They just played one of the top 4 teams in the league....were down only 13-7 at half.....The issue in this game was always going to be about Barkley I said, some others as well....They guy had a huge game, and has had some against other teams as well...he didn't get all his yearly yards just last niby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
What the hell was that decision by the eagles to accept a penalty after declining it.... - 7 months ago
Never seen that before....that to me was a blatant illegal action.....You make a decision like that and it needs to stay as that...'We will do this, oh wait a minute.....they aren't going to do what we thought, I want a do over on that....OK sounds good to me"....BS....What would happen to football games if this happened after every penalty on a 3rd/4th down.....You decline or accept a penalby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
They do not have a weak O-Line...... - 7 months ago
they have an inconsistent O-Line, there's a difference. They played a SB team last night with some really big players to boot....But McClendon isn't Havs, Avila is still getting into shape, you have a rookie center with what, 5,6 games under his belt, and an undrafted LT who again can play well, and bad in different games. This doesn't point to weakness IMO.....If you grade the RAMS against thby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
They are in a place many teams are in.....(try reading this) - 7 months ago
The overall fact is the eagles are a top echelon team, there are 4 maybe 5 of them within the 32 total teams. The RAMS are not in total disarray, they have a solid core of players to build on, there are several teams that are not in that spot. They are in a division that has 4 teams pretty much in the same boat, they all have valuable players, but in the near future cap space may become probby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
They need Omar and Bobby Brown as well..... - 7 months ago
said it 2 or 3 times, but my posts seem to go ghost...LOL......The way to beat the eagles is to hold down Barkley, .....done 1 of 2 ways by run D or our O controlling the clock/keeping them off the field...the latter unfortunately is near impossible. Can't give them 3rd and shorts...they'll kill the RAMS.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Nah..... - 7 months ago
IMO we didn't get smoked by the dolphins and secondly the dolphins were/are a good team, but Tua needs to be playing. We had legit chances against the dolphins WITH Tua and we blew them......The pats, well IMO...that was a weird game....TOP was very lopsided, but we actually controlled the game.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Limmer...... - 7 months ago
from low round pick to thrust into a position to actually controlling the position all done within weeks. He wasn't penciled in to do anything this season and he has earned a starting spot.....IMO he is above anyone else if simply because he wasn't close to be expected to do anything in year 1 much less maybe even years to come.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
At his age...... - 7 months ago
I would want to resign him....he'll have 4 years of NFL experience built in to his 25 years of age.....He's gotta a lot of tread left and he's starting to grow up (fingers crossed).by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Fiske is 24 years old....Brown is 24 years old.... - 7 months ago
that means Brown started his NFL career at age 21.....that is exactly why although IMO he has always had the ability, his age was his kryptonite.....he wasn't fully invested in his job at 21.....many have thought he was a total slacker and a jag, and really wanted him gone.....I never thought in that direction. Sometimes a guy needs to look deeper, or in other areas instead of just a stat book, eby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
He was 1 of the guys who I had high hopes for..... - 7 months ago
He always had the talent and ability, but he's still very young and along with that come hiccups. Glad he's finally doing what I always new he could do....as I wrote in another earlier post He, Omar and Tyler Davis are really needed in this game to help at least slow down Barkley....keep him under that 100 yard average.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Almost to the point of ad nauseam...... - 7 months ago
The man should have made it the past 2 x's at least....His numbers are still high on the list an he did these things when the team had multiple high end offensive options....It really sucks when many of these guys never are around to see them be inducted....He deserves to be in, but yet again someone will take his place....(hope is eternal, but reality keeps slapping it down).....by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Question for those in charge of the header...... - 7 months ago
I for 1 would like to see a permanent marker on the header with some type of design for Phil, AKA Ram 23.....maybe something like a RAMS Horn with 23 inserted into the HORN.....IMO he was a major developer to the board as well as the man who designated the name of the board. As we always change the Header with new arrivals to the team I think that he should be a mainstay of the Header as well.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
For the most part the guys been out of football.... - 7 months ago
for well over a year. Not talking about these practices he's been apart of, but actual game football. I would assume a shoulder blade fracture to a lineman would be a bi^&H to overcome. Your shoulders/upper body is what you use to man up with the defender. He was a noted lineman when he was healthy, but that water under the bridge now. My instinct would be to think of him as your interiorby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Need a big game from Bobby Brown..... - 7 months ago
He is a king pin to this game as is Omar and Tyler Davis. I point them out because Barkley is a huge piece for them.....Stopping this run game is key......Tackle, and I mean wrap up, no ankle lunges or shoulder hits....We have a team that can hang with them IF they don't let them get a lead.....Not looking for much from the O, just enough to keep it within distance...maybe looking at Karty makingby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
That doesn't mean he was at the root..... - 7 months ago
cause of not having a blowout.....his 3 point miss would not have made it a blow out... 2 score drives needed yes, but that doesn't make a blow out. On top of that I look more at the 1 play score by the RAMS to start the 2nd half as a pivotal point where a blow out could have started....but it didn't they stayed in the game, we did not put them away....his missed FG was not a reason for that...by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
I remember him well..... - 7 months ago
but as time has passed I must admit I never realized not seeing him on the board. It is a sad day indeed, but a day that comes to all of us. I just hope his final years were full and generous for him and his family. He has passed but his board lives on, so in essence he is and always will be here.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Drafted KT Levinston (sp).......... - 7 months ago
he came in as a LT, but that doesn't mean he can't be a swing or RT. He's a big boy too at 325lbs. Seem to remember he was a good pick up at his draft position (rd 7?) as well, so he's an unknown in the mix IMO.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Most positions are always looking to be improved on.... - 7 months ago
Unless you got real stalwarts at spots a team would be foolish not to bring in competition. But at the same time a player I'd want on my team would be one who relishes competition. I am not concerned so much about Josh.....the team as a whole seems to let down just at times they can just as easily take it over......They'll score a TD and let a team have a good return, or the D will seem to disby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
He was not the reason for not having a blow out..... - 7 months ago
That miss was bad, very bad, but for some reason this team can't handle a lead very well much less extend those leads....The pats O isn't something to be scared of but at times they diced the D up.....The O continues to start off slow.....going up by 3 more points on his missed field goal wasn't going to make it a blow out IMO......That 69 yarder should have started the nail in the coffin...it dby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
McClendon is our future RT...... - 7 months ago
The guy is a quiet consummate player. Doesn't draw attention for awesome blocks, but the covers that edge very well. After Havs retires RT is in good hands. Next season he should IMO replace Boom for sure on the roster, and maybe push Jonah out as well as the swing T.....NE has a good front seven.....he well have been the needed piece last week to have brought a win against the dolphins. Boomby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
I have never seen a post calling Tutu a top player in the league.... - 7 months ago
I have never seen any poster here say that. I have heard people say he is under used, have heard people say he has talent, have seen him in games make big time explosive plays, I have seen him have 100 yard games when main guys were out where the team needed someone to step up in that area. Now the 4 items I addressed above, does that = he is a top player in the league?.....A guy can't help hiby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
That's a given since he asked him to come on board..... - 7 months ago
a sounding board and a guy that Ryan can lean on....Ryan is IMO or can be considered a newbie for his coaching position compared to many across the league. he has also shown to be a good choice and has IMO a good future in store for himself.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com

Your entire premise lands on Munchak..... - 8 months ago
WANTING that job, as O-Line position coach.....it very well may be that he came to the RAMS because of the presence of McVay AND just being a sounding board type position......it could very well be he is not interested in that job.....To say he should have dumped Ryan and given it to Munchak is kinda presumptuous IMO.by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Went there in the 2001...... - 8 months ago
the reg. season preview of that BS SB of 2002......beat the snot out of them, Faulk was running wild in cold temps in a nite game. Fans lost interest soon into the game started throwing snow balls, cops came in took a few away.the score did not indicate the beat down IMO...It wasn't snowing game time, but snow was evident in the bleachers and ice was on the sidewalk areas....No way we lost to thby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
Why not just use an extra lineman and dump the TE spot? - 8 months ago
Not full time, but start using 6 linemen over the TE usage more when in 11 personnel.....The TE spot is like having an extra thumb....just start busting chops with the RB room.....I know...it ain't McVay...not in any way.........Start games in that formation....can still use your WR groupings.....play action off it....by roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
2023=3-6...2024=4-5....... - 8 months ago
They are actually 1 game better than last year after 9 games. Here is what makes 2024 different......The main difference is that the cards are much better than last year.....as is Wash........that bear game and this game look to be huge obstacles...Those 2 teams can easily have 2 of 7 spots tied up, add in the lions and whoever takes the NFC South leaves 3 spots....the whiners are getting healtby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
The offense is just not steady..... - 8 months ago
they are not solid at all. I don't think even when they get the rust off this offense can make TD's on any consistent level inside the red zone.....They have not shown me any reason it's just because guys have been hurt. They have talent across the board on O...they have some in the line, at RB, at WR.....TE is a wash because to be real McVay just doesn't use the position like you'd think an Oby roman18 - RamsFootballFans.com
