GIANTS game reactions

Have to start Goff bless he still is not ready.

As much as I like Keenum’s moxie, he always finds a way to make a critical mistake.

I agree…time to start the Goff era.

The Rams can lose with Goff just as well as they can with Keenum and at least the kid would be getting his feet wet.

They’ve lost three big games in a row.

The season is ‘not’ over yet. Next game is a must-win though.

They are just… missing something. Could it be a QB ?

A Head Coach. This team needs a real Head Coach. One that can win games.

GRob was very bad…LT’s a key missing element right now.

I give CK at fault for 2 of his 4 INT’s today

I put the coaching staff at fault for the red flags that again killed us all day.

Quick had a very good game except for the miscommunication to end the game.

TA made a critical mistake by not handling the catch that resulted in a pick-6, but had a pretty good game and made some critical 3rd down pick ups.

Well after losing 3 straight I think we’re in “might as well play Goff” territory

Me, too.

I got back late this morning from a weekend trip so I came in at the Rams with a 10-3 lead. Watched from there. I didn’t have much emotion except for some frustration. But I’ve mostly checked out emotionally at this point.

So just a few things.

Why is this run game struggling so mightily this year? The offense should be going through Gurley–not Keenum–but the Rams don’t seem to have a choice. I don’t know.

Yes–Keenum threw 4 picks. To be fair they were not all on him. If this offense didn’t have to rely on Keenum to win he’d be fine. He is the game manager type of QB we’ve talked about–but if all the weight is on him—forget it. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. It was SUPPOSED to go through Gurley. But some passes were certainly horrible today.

And why on earth would you throw that on 3rd and ten? Basically it was a jump ball. You hope that Quick gets the message and runs the correct route but even if he does–it’s a jump ball. There have to be better options.

Hey–it is what it is. They are 3-4 and will be lucky to hit 8-8.

At this point Fisher has no choice–he has to play Goff now. You’ve wasted 7 games playing a guy who will be gone next year. What do you have to show for it? I’m not saying Goff could have won those 3 games–but 3-4 or 2-5 or 1-6—who cares? Use the rest of this season to play Goff. Let him develop pocket awareness, let him work on getting in sync with the receivers. And yes–let HIM make those mistakes and hopefully learn.

All the reasons for playing Keenum are gone now. If Goff is really so unprepared that he can’t even get on the field now–well–let’s just say if that’s the case than what happens this season is the least of their worries.

Play Goff. It will make another 7-9 season interesting.

By the way–just heard on NFL network that Fisher said Case will continue to start.

The same guy that said we weren’t going to trade Bradford? He should start Mannion if he isn’t going to start Goff. imo

Like you said, Keenum won’t be here next year anyway.

I thought GRob got some bad calls. Also. I felt that the refs missed an illegal shove, and a PI call, both on the Giants the one that Britt was coming down inside, the Giant db pushed Britt, and was not looking for the ball.

GRob has the rep and until he shakes that off by being squeeky clean, he’s gonna get called…it’s on him.

I also didn’t like the Nuetral zone call against AD…that was a bad call period…but, just like GRob the Rams a whole have a bad rep and the refs are comin in lookin to throw flags on them.

After three straight losses Rams fans need cheering up.

Lessee’, the Rams will undoubtedly be announcing Fisher’s five year extension pretty soon…maybe they can add that Goff will start the first week after the bye?

There, two things for Rams fans to look forward to.

Fisher signing an extension is a bad thing. How are you going to excite the LA fan base, giving an extension to a losing head coach? The fans in LA, scratching their heads, knowing signing Fisher to an extension means you don’t care. Below mediocre is fine. That is what Fisher gives you. LA fans are smart and know as longbas hebis here, the Rams will never see the playoffs. I will probably hit powerball jackpot before the Rams make the playoffs with Jeff Fisher as Head Coach

Yeah I was joking, Jack.

Although John Clayton and others think the extension has already been signed or at least agreed upon…

Lost in all this, is the fact that the Giants got to play the Rams
on a neutral field.

IF they play at home, in LA….who knows?

As dismal and mediocre and boring as this Ram team is, 3-4 is
still on the cusp of the last playoff berth.

It aint over. I know a LOT of folks are in furious-fire-everyone mode,
but its hardly beyond reason to think they might win two in a row
and find themselves at 5-4.

Next game is a Must-Win though. If they go two games under .500 they are toast.

Next game is a playoff game.

Since this is the bye week when can we start posting threads about something other than this loss?

And 3-4 is not in competition for a playoff spot. 8-8 is rarely good enough. Seattle had to win the division to get in sub .500.
