    While visiting family and friends, I met a scout who did some work for Rams recently (that’s all he would let me say about him smiling smiley). We touched on various Rams topics. Here is the summary of what the scout indicated:

    1. Saffold will be back next year with Rams

    2. Fisher and Snead contracts will be extended soon. He indicated Fisher and Belichick are two of the best coach cum player evaluators in the league. And there is no another coach even close.

    3. Team is incredibly happy with jamon brown and E.J Gaines talents. Havenstein mehhhh.

    4. Britt lost a step since Tennessee days. Except Britt, all other WRs run great routes only a % of time.

    5. According to this scout, management, coaches, front office are all in agreement Rams are a super bowl team this year. He said watch the next 8 games you will get it.

    6. Per the scout, 9ers will stink for the next 3-4 years. Called cardinals mostly a phony. He respects Seahawks.

    I didn’t want to be seen as pushing the envelope by asking about next years draft and Rams priorities right away. He agreed to stay in touch. BTW, I did ask him if I could post this and he said no problem.

    I don’t know how much credit to give those kinds of things. I don’t know the poster or the source. But, I do plan on focusing on these last 8 games. The first 8 games are now history and I am only going to count what happens from now on out. Even Cook gets a second chance. 😉

    i don’t think this is a superbowl team although i think they’re capable of making the playoffs.

    Yup. Total bullshit.
    I’m sorry but a team that cant convert
    a third down is a Super Bowl team?
    Please.

    Tbey have a chance to be a ‘wild-card level team’.
    Ten wins. That sort of thing. But that is
    a far cry from elite.

    You never know. They could go on a tear and get healthy and peak at the tournament. Fisher teams tend to get stronger second half.

    Um, extending them would be way premature.

    Well, I think they need to hire new management, coaches and a front office because based on the results of the first of those 8 games they are clueless if they think this is a Superbowl team.

    Yeah I wondered whether to post that. I mean…have you ever heard of a “scout who did some work for” a team “recently”? You’re either a scout with a team or you’re not. It’s not like hiring a guy to cut your lawn.

    Yeah, I though that when I read it. Scouts aren’t freelance contractors.

    Sounds like a high school football coach who got asked about one of his players a year or two ago.
