For historical reference—and we’re probably the same age, so I know you know this—two step drops weren’t a thing, and so weren’t a threat, until Walsh and Montana.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com

Coryell was never shy about finding talent that was out of the norm for most coaches/GMs. Kellen Winslow, Chuck Muncie, Lionel James…all of them either “too big” for their position or “too small”. But what Coryell saw is that they were talented freaks and they produced well beyond most “typical sized” players did at their respective positions. Coryell deserves more accolades.

Having Mayfield opens up a Red Raider reunion with Cliff Kingsbury (assuming the Cardinals move on). McVay has sought out CK in the past.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
We’ll see how Purdy plays, but Niners are looking like chumps for not putting in an offer. Mayfield has a way better arm than Jimmy which was clear when he threw well outside the numbers and overthrew Tutu.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com

Couple of Texas boys (even Stafford was born in Florida).by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
Didn’t even think of that. (Hear that, Joe Cool?) Even right before the winning TD I said to the wife, “Well, 15 seconds to go, they’re on the 22, it’s like a 11% chance of winning.” Then I looked up and—touchdown!! Totally surreal. Good for Baker and good for our Rams.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com

One of my most enjoyable wins in the McVay era. Not sure why?.by Ekern55 - Game Time Forum
Everybody talks about the pressure McVay’s offense has put on the defense. How about the pressure these long Raider (insert team name here___) drives put on the offense? “Well, we’ve got to play high risk/big payoff fastbreak ball, or we won’t get the ball again for 12 minutes.” Soft scheme is for chumps!! This is a violent game and the aggressor wins.by Ekern55 - Game Time Forum
You’re right. And a defense should give the offense time to score. Hard to do when you allow tons of time of possession to the opponent.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
Problem is you hide Morris behind Fangio and Staley. They aren’t coaching the Rams D. Does their D give up 4,264 yards after the catch? That number is embarrassing. What it means is that the Rams are poor tacklers and/or out of position to tackle. And that stat goes against the the virtue you and Morris are trying sell us: bend but don’t break. 4,264 yards after the catch is not bending.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
Hoecht runs a 4.6 40. That’s why the Rams signed him as an undrafted free agent. QuoteRambling Fan Some say that the LA Rams will need a miracle to return to the NFL Playoffs in 2020. Believe it or not, they may have found one already. Do you believe that a 6-foot-4, 310-pound defensive lineman can run a 4.6-second 40-yard dash? Rams rookie defensive lineman Michael Hoecht can, and heby Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteJimYoungblood53 QuoteStafford9 How come we sit back and never pressure the Q? When you want a serious conversation--start with the facts and then we can move on to what I think are the defensive failures and strengths are. Cannot do that on falsehoods. Emotions cannot be a substitute for reasoned thoughts. The numbers just to the left of ‘Blitz’ are terrible. 4,264 Yards afterby Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com

Didn’t Mayfield and McVay share a plane ride and talked football. I thought I remember McVay talking about it and saying Mayfield had good football smarts.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
The league makes money off of villains. The league about him like he’s not a villain. He’s a villain. They know he is. The fans know he is. And because the fans know he is, the league will keep rolling him out so fans can root against him. I hate that greedy manipulative practice.by Ekern55 - RamsFootballFans.com
