    The plan for the 2019 #LARams’ offensive line is falling apart.

    With knee injuries to C Brian Allen and RT Rob Havenstein capping off another horrible performance, the plan for the line in 2019 has already failed

    Rich Hammond@Rich_Hammond
    Re-watching the Rams’ offensive series just makes me wonder more: How was that bye week spent? Still no run-game rhythm/identity. Still Goff being put into positions to fail (and failing). No part of the plan looked markedly better or different. I’m quite confused.

    ESPN’s Barnwell/Kimes podcast on Rams struggles

    Just taking notes:

    – the 6-1 defense Detroit showed last November started the Rams issues for their offense. But Steelers ran all of 2 plays Sunday from that look. They don’t need to–they’re a very good defense up front. Beat the Rams OL up.

    – Rams OL health in 2017 and 2018 was ridiculously good. Not sustainable. Losing Noteboom and now injuries vs Steelers are more the norm in the NFL.

    – Do the Rams regret the Goff signing? Not ‘regret’ but probably feeling ‘uneasy.’

    – OL won’t magically improve on its own.

    – What can McVay do? Has he made adjustments? Conversations with people around the league include some ‘conspiracy theories’ that McVay is hiding some things he might have in mind. He is using more crack tosses out on the edge. In passing game working the quick passing game more. Goff simply has to play better…

    Saffold signed a 4-year, $44M deal with over $22M guaranteed in the offseason. #Titans fans have criticized his play.

    Meanwhile, the #Rams desperately miss Saffold’s presence on their offensive line.

    We mentioned in the preseason that this @RamsNFL offensive line was an experiment. So bring in another test tube and try again. While we are figuring it out…lets really try not to get Goff and Gurley killed.

    Vincent Bonsignore@VinnyBonsignore
    I’ve seen fans questioning Todd’s commitment after his comments last night about his usage. To those of you who are, replace your laziness with nuance.

    Two things make it crystal clear that the #Rams and Todd Gurley are working through/managing an issue with his knee: His usage rate/patterns and the fact he hasn’t protested about those rates/patterns.

    So the whole Todd Gurley thing and how McVay answers questions about it…the narrative is very awkward. They won’t tell the truth, so they’re stuck in this coverup. Vinny [ie. VB] said Gurley doesn’t want it out that he has to be on a pitch count. And the Rams are respecting his wishes. That’s the reason why you won’t hear Gurley saying give me the damn ball. Gurley isn’t the shy type. So we’re stuck with this disingenuous narrative that comes off sounding ridiculous.

    Went back and watched the second half (since I sort of fell asleep last night) of Seahawks/49ers, and I’m not sure I’ve seen a game that better showed the value of dominant defensive linemen.

    Both groups, back and forth, looked capable of taking over.

    ME: looks like the Rams picked the wrong year to give up having a coherent OL.

    When I asked J.B. Long for something encouraging, he recommended his interview with David Edwards. When I heard his pod, one thing became crystal clear. Edwards has not lost his faith in the O-Line. So it’s up to us Ramily not to lose faith in our boys. Horns up. Let’s go #Rams🐏

    With Rams-49ers pushed to 8:15p ET in Week 16, the Rams are in primetime 4 of the next 6 weeks with a national 4:25p slot at Cowboys mixed in too.

    Rams play 49ers at Levi’s Stadium on Saturday, Dec. 21, at 5:15 pm PDT, league announces.

    Rams unofficial depth chart today for offensive line:
    LT – Andrew Whitworth
    LG – Austin Corbett
    C – Austin Blythe
    RG – David Edwards
    RT – Rob Havenstein/Bobby Evans

    Havenstein is out one, possibly two, weeks because of a meniscus injury.

    Likely still TBD on RT fill in.

    Cameron DaSilva@camdasilva
    The Rams put Allen and Hager on IR today.

    Sean McVay said on The Coach McVay Show last night that the Rams want to add someone who’s been on a roster recently. Sounds like they’ll most likely either A) claim someone off waivers or B) elevate someone from the practice squad.

    McVay also said Brandin Cooks will practice this week, miss Sunday’s game, and if everything goes well, he’ll play in Week 12

    Rams’ playoff odds take big hit, drop to 16.5% after Seahawks beat 49ers

    Rich Hammond@Rich_Hammond
    As of now, four of the Rams’ last seven games are 5 pm (or later) starts.

    Lindsey Thiry@LindseyThiry
    Rams knew Jalen Ramsey came with unfiltered takes, but they didn’t exactly realize the level of trash he’d talk bring during games — “Your socks, your cleats. Whatever it is, he’s got a problem with it.” So far, they’re loving it.

    Sunday was the first time ever the Rams lost a game where they had a safety and defensive TD

    Remembering preseason, understand the need to keeping important players out of harms way, yet offensive line is an exception. 5 Bigs need to coordinate as 1, communication & feel are super important. Playing O-Line starters in preseason is a must to know what we got or don’t got.

    Vincent Bonsignore@VinnyBonsignore
    Bobby Evans told me he’ll be at right tackle for the #Rams on Sunday.

    Also, David Edwards told me he’ll be at right guard.

    Rich Hammond@Rich_Hammond
    So there we go, with what looks like it will be a Rams OL of Whitworth, Corbett Blythe, Edwards and Evans.

    Lindsey Thiry@LindseyThiry
    Sean McVay says the Rams are happy with their quarterbacks, and that he’ll stick to their normal policy of not sharing workout plans with the public, in reference to Colin Kaepernick’s scheduled workout.

    Jared Goff has passed for 2,610 yards and 11 touchdowns, with 9 interceptions, this season. What can he improve? “Throw more completions. Get the ball in our guys’ hands and get rid of the ball, get rid of the ball. Be accurate, be on time, everything,” Goff said.
