I say 10-6.

First Rams winning record since 1842.

Prediction 9-7. That year 1842 the Rams success turned the brewing world upside down by creating the modern pilsner.

The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

Sprinkles are for winners.

The thought scares me because you gotta know winged cows would begin flying from my butt shortly after.

A decent and healthy QB = 10 wins. Could go 11 if the NFC West competition finally slips a little.

I’m lousy at this type of thing. With the oline looking so young and inexperienced at this point I think the offense is going to get off to a slow start. I’m still not a big believer in the defensive secondary at this point either.

7-9

8-8. With a rookie OL and Fisher’s pattern of being unable to have teams ready for the season, we see a slow start and a lot the wins late when they’re already out of the playoffs.

No injuries including a healthy QB? I’m going 11 and five with that.

There is no earthly reason
this team should not win Ten games.

I mean, look at the talent on that defense,
and the talent on special teams.
The offense just has to avoid giving games away.

And I’m not even factoring in Gurley. If ‘he’
turns out to be a star and if he is able to
play early and often, i could see 11 or 12 wins
and a division title.

9-7.

Nice, safe, sensible, realistic, sucky, middle-of-the-road pick.

After watching Foles and the new OL this year, maybe that gets jacked up next year to the lofty height of 10-6.

Hard to believe that 10-6 is a desirable goal. Repeated mediocrity does strange things to your mind.

I believe my predictions have a bearing on how they finish – or maybe I’m just being you know, superstitious. Coincidence? I sincerely doubt that they could lose for so many seasons during my adult life without it being some sort of punishment directed at me by some sort of greater power of NFL football. Plus, whenever I predicted a winning record, they sucked.

So, I’m saying 1-15 or maybe 0-16. They got nuthun honey. I’m always wrong, right?

8 – 8. Too many question marks, although I like all the off season moves they made, I am not 100 percent confident in the coaches(Fisher and Williams). Another slow start could doom them. I think this years schedule is really hard. I usually don’t worry about that, but this year might be different.

My thing is, I don;t have a REAL feel for Foles yet. I have to see him play. Right now he’s too “on paper” for me. I felt the same way about Bradford before the 2010 season.

My problem is, I like Mannion better. LOL

During the last season in L.A. in 1994, the Rams were 4-12. However, they were 5-11 the year before that so it’s not so certain the MOVE affected their season. They just sucked.

So I’m going to say the move won’t affect them THIS season. However, they were 6-10 last year so do not dismiss 5-11 as a real possibility. Maybe it affects them a “little”.

Forget all of that. In a year ending in “5”, over the last five decades it’s a mixed bag, mostly bad. I believe two winning years.

Forget that.

It’s the Year of the Ram.

In 2003 they were 12-4. 1991? 3-13. 1979? 9-7 and a SuperBowl appearance and the LAST season in the coliseum. 1967? 11-1-2

1955? 8-3-1

And 1943? Team shut down for WWII.

So…..either it’s going to be a pretty good year or a VERY bad year if we go to WWIII.

Hey–I don’t control the Ram, I just state the facts.

So… in summary, I’ll say 9-7 for the year.

Young O-line, questionable QB situation, tough black and blue NFC West division.

Will it be good enough for the playoffs? Probably not. But…a break here or there and who knows?

What I’m saying is there’s a chance for post season this year. A chance.
