vStarters? Hager, Littleton, Donald, Brockers, Hav, Higbee, Goff, Gurley, Brown, Zuerlein, and Hekker. (Plus another guy or 2 like McQuaide, Thomas, Hill, and Fox). It’s a lot actually. That’s more than you would normally have in the third year of a new coach, especially if it was an actual rebuild.
Plus a lot of the free agents who left are still players. McLeod, Jenkins, Johnson (though he was just benched), Joyner, Ogletree, Barron, Saffold.
September 18, 2019 at 6:26 pm #105271InvaderRamModeratorfisher knew how to pick players that’s for sure.

https://theathletic.com/1219114/2019/09/18/live-qa-with-rams-writer-vinny-bonsignore-on-wednesday-from-noon-to-1-p-m-pt-2/?source=twitteredWhat’s with the red zone struggles ?
Lack of efficiency, mistakes, and I think a couple of bad play calls
Which contracts are the biggest/hardest decisions in the next off season?
You have to lock up Littleton. Blythe is a keeper. We will see on Marcus Peters. I could see Talib coming back on a reasonable deal
is Donald hurt?
Should find out more today. But I haven’t heard that it’s anything serious
Do you think that the call on Goff’s fumble was a bit blown out of proportion because it happened to the Saints? I’ve seen quick whistles before that kill plays.
Yes. To me it wasn’t a “quick” whistle. The referee called it exactly as he saw it, and did so with conviction and decisiveness. I’d much rather have that then indecisive. Upon further review, it was a throw. But in real time, he saw it differently and that isn’t all that unusual.
Is it taking Henderson a while to get on the field due to still learning the playbook?
No one has completely said that, but sense is there has been an adjustment for him in terms of how it works at this level in all phases. If I were him, I’m be following Todd and Malcolm around watching how it’s done at this level.
When if at all do you see Greg Gaines being a bigger part of the rotation?
I think as the year goes on it will get better, but I also believe they’ll give JSD every chance to settle in. I felt his second game was better than the opener, which was to be expected. Ideally they end up trading off in a rotation in which they’ll both benefit
Goff has had some uncharacteristic accuracy issues even without facing pressure which he seemed to clean up at the end of the Saints game.
I expected his overall game to take a step forward this year and I’d be surprised if it didn’t. That includes being better under pressure and against the zone. I think his accuracy issues on some of those throws are all fundamentally based. When he gets a little sloppy on the fundamentals, it shows.
How’s Allen doing?
The coaches have been raving about him
…
I’ve been really impressed with the overall operation of the Rams defense the first two weeks, and talking to players on other teams they are absolutely doing a clever job in scheming/packaging. I suspect that will remain the case against the Browns

Watching AD, Cam Jordan and Myles Garrett rush the passer in the same week has been a treat. Couple thoughts because of all the holding calls they generate, the refs really SHOULD be calling more and wouldn’t be nice if you could foul out and offensive lineman! 3 Holds & out.𝒥𝒾𝓂 𝐸𝓋𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓉𝓉@Jim_Everett
Spoken like a true D lineman! Boi, you crazy! Game has too many calls in question already. We’ll need Supreme Court Justices to make it through a three hour game…and a week or two after to go through the appellate process. #JustPlayBall #KISS==
Lindsey Thiry@LindseyThiry
Despite a 2-0 start, the Rams offense still has a few issues to work through — including scoring in the first half. Through two games, the Rams have scored only 19 of their 57 points in the first half. Last season, the Rams ranked second in the NFL with an average of 17.4 points per first half (The Chiefs had 18.6), per ESPN Stats & Info.September 19, 2019 at 9:54 am #105304znModeratorRussell Lande@RUSSLANDE
while there are many smart people working for teams, there are also more idiots than I expected when I started working for teams.Sosa K@QBsMVP
John Johnson III is the best defender on the team not named Aaron Donald. Ironically, Taylor Rapp was all over the place against NO. One of the best young duo’s at safety in the league, maybe the best.==

The Rams…developed the confidence and poise to pull out close games, going 6-1 since the start of the 2018 season in games that were within 3 points in the last 4 minutes, after going 2-3 in 2017 in the same situation.

Yeah…that’s not accurate.
It’s…”The alternate uniforms are better cuz the other one sucks.”
