Perfect MT!! Holden Cantor Tweet 9/30 - McVay RZ comment - 9 months ago
So True MT!! McVay..."They know I prefer pass; but because I know that they know, they know I won't run, but will pass, but I know that they know that, so I know they really expect a run, and because they expect a run, they expect me to pass, but since they know that, they will think I will run, therefore, I will pass!"by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
I AGREE - Offensively, our main problem is McVay's play calling. - 9 months ago
I agree Ridgewood! Our talent at a given time (injuries included) is just a fact, a constant: McVay's play calling is a key variable that can lift or diminish the level of play. Mostly this year, it's been lousy. Yesterday was ridiculous. What the heck is he thinking? Agree with all the good comments from Ridgewood (no two TE run game!!??) etc. McVay is a great coach WHEN conditions areby nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams just lost a VERY winnable must-have game… - 9 months ago
Ram43. You are correct!! And not that it would have mattered, but where the heck is Blake Corum? Is he in a witness protection program! He's not good enough to see the field in this anemic offense?by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com

Ram43. You are correct!! What a poorly played and coached game. Geez. And not that it would have mattered, but where the heck is Blake Corum? Is he in a witness protection program! He's not good enough to see the field in this anemic offense?by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay some bad decisions at macro and micro level - 9 months ago
What happened with two tight end offense as we saw in big win over SF? Come on Sean. And with 90 yards to go and a punt essentially loses the game as we will never get the ball back, McVay calls two runs and a crap pass. Come on Sean. We got beat by an inferior team today and that is saying something given our lousy DB's and patchwork offense.by nantucketramfan - Game Time Forum

This game forced McVay's hand and I hope he learns from it - 9 months ago
He's a great coach. Full top. But he is great in part because his philosophy and ideas work. But at times, he gets overly anchored in them, I think. The great Keynes (ecoomist) once said "It's easy to get new ideas, but terribly hard to drop old ones". Today, McVay had to drop some old ideas. No Puka. No Kupp. A shaky defense. A busted up OL still being cobbled together. The result:by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
One of the great Ram wins ever (Yes, really) - 9 months ago
Given the injuries, the horrible play this year and the total lack of momentum going into today, this team reached deep, gutted it out, never quit, had some terrific coaching to win. This season may be a disaster when all is said and done but this game was a win for pride, gut check win. The Rams played their tails off. I thought they had no chance in hell today (even with a few 49'er injuries) Pby nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Dolphins should trade for Garoppolo - 9 months ago
If he could stay healthy, he'd be the perfect guy to distribute the ball to their weapons and run their offense. And their coach knows him well. I suspect Tua will retire. Tough break for the kid.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Good read on JJ3 from LA Times - 9 months ago
Thanks for the article! Being a Boston College alum and huge Ram fan, seeing JJ3 giving back to others and help lift them up is no surprise!! It's part of the fabric of BC and expected. Thrilled to see JJ back on the Rams with a big interception. He's not a great safety, but he's rock solid, a leader, smart, and keeps making big plays for the Rams.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com

Re: Ok Bennett is a problem - 10 months ago
This isn't intended to be piling on but from the Ram's perspective, I hope to heck they realize that the reality is, Bennett stinks. He shouldn't make the team, or practice squad. He will never be an NFL QB; backup or otherwise. Move on from him... let go of this idea, please Les, even if you rated Bennett highly coming out of Georgia.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
THANK YOU FOR GRADES !! Logan Bruss made PFF's "Team of the Week" - Good to see - 10 months ago
Thank you for your post. Very interesting. Good for Bruss for sure. I have heard he's lost all his confidence last year. This performance should help. Step by step. If you or anyone can post PFF grades post games, that would be fantastic. I guess I should subscribe on PFF though to get the data myself.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Les Snead is killing it. More "Snead Steels!" - 10 months ago
Agree! .. Snead is killing it. How about DT Tyler as another terrific late round pick who looks like a potential stud....!?!? Sure there are some misses, but in the last few years we've been loading up on "SNEAD STEALS!!" (hey, I like that phrase... Snead Steals!)by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Jourdan on TEs - 11 months ago
Hunter Long is going to be a big surprise on the upside. He was an outstanding college TE at BC in the ACC and has never found his footing yet, and had some nagging injuries. He's also very intelligent. Stay tuned.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Article Folks: Los Angeles Rams agree to terms with DB John Johnson III - 1 year ago
Happy Fourth from windswept Nantucket Island.... Great move by Snead. JJ is a good safety who does lots of things well on the field with the Rams before and after his time in Cleveland. A high character, solid citizen and great guy as well. Given one current safety spot appears wide open with question-marks Yeast and Kinchens, Johnson provides inexpensive, yet experienced, solid play justby nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Which Players will Fans Choose for Rams’ Mount Rushmore? - 1 year ago
I agree with your four-- Jack Youngblood, David "Deacon" Jones, Warner, and Aaron Donald -- for Mt. Rushmore. It is hard, though, to keep tackle Orlando Pace off the list. DOMINANT player. I think he made 7 or 8 straight all pro teams. He'd be my fifth best Ram, and he may have had a better career than Jack Youngblood or Warner. Warner's Ram career was fairly short. But no Warneby nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Dave Elmendorf turns 75 tomorrow... - 1 year ago
Elmendorf was great. Didn't Elmendorf start a few years at safety with Nolan Cromwell at the other safety? Cromwell was a great player. And Jim Youngblood was on that team I believe--superior OLB?by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
My opinion of two keys to a playoff season in 2024 - 1 year ago
Just my view.... 1. The defensive backfield as a unit goes horrible play to "average" play (middle of the pack statistically) in the NFL. This means the signings (two) at CB work out and CC works out at safety, and maybe KK (third round pick) plays well (or they sign a safety). My broader point; last year our DB's were a sieve. Terrible statistically! If Rams can just become NFL &quoby nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Re: Why TE Davis Allen could be Rams Breakout Candidate in 2024 - 1 year ago
Nothing against Allen, but don't sleep on Hunter Long. He was a stud at BC in ACC play. Snead and Ram's coaches like him. He was getting playing time last year before he got hurt.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
WE WILL BE BETTER-- So how will we be different this season? - 1 year ago
Great question! How will we be different.... 1. Our defensive backfield may (hopefully!) go from worst (horrible) to average (middle of the NFL pack) and that's a big jump and great news! 2. We'll generate more pressure from the front four, and get more total sacks. In part because of the influx of new talent, current players ascending further, and a new defensive coach.

Re: Rams officially sign 16 udfas - 1 year ago
The Rams have a pretty high opinion about Josh Wallace. I think he got good money to sign. He may make the team in my opinion. Better than DK.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Rams confident about Kupp's health. (GOOD POINT -- BIG BET!!) - 1 year ago
Yes, they do. Your small post is important and is a big bet for the Rams! I wish I was as confident. Kupp's age and re-ocuring leg injuries don't give me lots of confidence he'll make it through a long season and playoffs. I wish the Rams had a really good plan B.by nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Mel Kiper should be in the NFL hall of fame - 1 year ago
During the draft this year, some other announcer on TV set with Kiper on national TV said Mel Kiper should be in the Hall of Fame. Kiper was sitting there, and was sort of surprised. but everyone on the set realized "yes, he is right, Kiper should be!!". I never thought of it before, but KIPER SHOULD BE IN THE HALL OF FAME! He may have been in the right place at the right time iby nantucketramfan - RamsFootballFans.com
Commonality among draft picks and quick reaction - 1 year ago
Characteristics of players chosen: Toughness. Intensity. Physicality. Leadership. Maturity. Strength. Love the picks.... will push many existing players to pick up their game or bye bye.

In "The Beast", Brugler's bible, Verse quote "He's the only player I've met who matches my intensity" I've read where they are good friends and work out warriors at FSU.
