With about three minutes to play in the Rams’ 12-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday at the Edward Jones Dome, the first medical timeout in NFL history was called.http://www.rams-news.com/fisher-rams-a-couple-of-plays-away-from-3-0-pd/%5DFisher: Rams a couple of plays away from 3-0 –PD
Perhaps Rams coach Jeff Fisher has a special set of glasses. Because after two tough losses, and with an offense that ranks dead last in the NFL, Fisher says he sees improvement from his 1-2 squad.http://www.rams-news.com/inside-the-press-room-with-myles-simmons-video-2/%5DInside the Press Room with Myles Simmons –Video

With a tackle on Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell on the opening drive of Sunday’s 12-6 loss, St. Louis Rams linebacker James Laurinaitis etched his name into the franchise’s record books.http://www.rams-news.com/ten-takeaways-from-the-rams-12-6-loss-to-the-steelers-karraker/%5DTen Takeaways from the Rams’ 12-6 Loss to the Steelers –Karraker
Both Anthony Stalter and I thought that, with the quality of the Steeler offense and the lack of quality in their secondary, that the Rams would have a chance to score some points and play a shootout with Pittsburgh.http://www.rams-news.com/benfreds-rams-rewind-run-first-rams-cant-run-pd/%5DBenFred’s Rams Rewind: Run-first Rams Can’t Run –PD
Jeff Fisher and Frank Cignetti have a problem. The Rams coach and his new offensive coordinator stress the importance of running the football, but here we are three games into the season, and a charred patch of turf is the only part of the Rams’ ground game that has been on fire.http://www.rams-news.com/rams-fall-to-last-in-nfl-in-total-offense-pd/%5DRams Fall to Last in NFL in Total Offense –PD
Three weeks into the 2015 NFL season, the Rams have sunk to 32nd in the NFL in total offense. That’s last.http://www.rams-news.com/rams-offense-lives-up-to-low-expectations-in-loss-to-steelers-wagoner/%5DRams’ Offense Lives up to Low Expectations in Loss to Steelers –Wagoner
The biggest spark the St. Louis Rams’ offense provided Sunday in a 12-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers came when the turf caught fire as they were being introduced before the game.http://www.rams-news.com/rams-lament-missed-opportunities-wagoner-2/%5DRams Lament Missed Opportunities –Wagoner
It should tell you all you need to know about the state of the St. Louis Rams offense that on a day when their defense held the NFL’s top-ranked offense to 12 points that linebacker James Laurinaitis found himself describing all the ways the defense could have played better.http://www.rams-news.com/is-opposition-to-rams-move-emerging-wagoner/%5DIs opposition to Rams’ move emerging? –Wagoner
We usually kick off the week with a review of something from Sunday’s slate of games, but Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio offered a post related to the St. Louis Rams and their potential relocation on Sunday night that was too interesting to ignore.http://www.rams-news.com/im-thomas-rams-blow-another-missed-opportunity/%5DJim Thomas: Rams Blow ‘Another Missed Opportunity’ –Audio

After much anticipation, No. 10 overall pick Todd Gurley played his first football game since blowing out an ACL on Nov. 15, 2014.The St. Louis Rams’ running back entered the 12-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers early in the second quarter and took his first carry for two yards.
Every game, all season
“I knew I was going to be fine after that,” Gurley said of getting hit, via ESPN. “It definitely felt good to just be back out there on the field again.”
The Rams predictably kept the rookie’s carries to a minimum. Gurley toted the ball just nine times for six yards as St. Louis’ offense could get nothing going on the ground or otherwise.
Despite the lackluster start to his career, Gurley said he didn’t feel rusty. However, the back admitted it’ll take time before he’s back to full speed.
“It’s just the first game,” Gurley said. “I’ve got to get in the groove of things.
“I feel like I’ve still got the explosiveness. I definitely didn’t get to show it today but like I said, we’ll pick back up on things and try to get things rolling next week.”
As we witnessed Sunday, the Rams need a playmaker with the ability Gurley displayed in college to carry the offensive load for a team that lacked an identity in Week 3. Expect the rookie’s work to increase steadily each week.
