Just heard Schefter on radio.. Said not going to be a first rounder

Schefter seemed pretty confident the deal will include multiple picks but not the Rams first round pick.

If true, and depending on what happens between now the end of April, I’m all in on o-line with the Rams first pick. That’s not to say the Rams don’t have other needs (e.g. edge rusher, NT, ILB, TE), but I’m just tell’n y’all what I want.

As a child I loved the Christoper Reeve’s “Superman” and I enjoyed the first two Spider-Man’s with Toby Maguire. I have several friends who love superhero movies. The genre ran its course for me a long time ago.

Am I correct in saying that this article is written in the second person? Whatever it is, at first I thought the style was cool, but it wore on me by the end. Regardless of the style I appreciated reading things from Fisher’s perspective.

I don’t know how next season’s Rams can possibly match the good fortune the 2017 Rams had with expect to limited injuries. That variable alone will make building on this past season and all its glories a difficult task.

Better than being on his third offense in three years.

The Falcons run game seemed to come to life after Brockers went down. That was a big loss for the Rams D. On other subjects, a reliable TE would be a nice find before the 2018 season and it’s unfortunate that Cooper waited until his first playoff game to have his worst performance of the season. Perhaps the injury he was dealing with played a factor. Only fourteen carries for Gurley? That disappointed me. I know that the Falcons had the ball a lot and Cooper’s errors kept the ball out of Gurley’s hands early, but there were opportunities for Gurley to run more.

Anyway, my expectations were exceeded this year. Hopefully this young team keeps developing and they can adequately deal with the buzz saw that is Jimmy Garappolo.

I’m totally good with resting guys. I don’t care about the idea that the Rams might be lining themselves up for a supposedly easier opponent in Philadelphia. I doubt that is even part of their thinking. Whoever they play in the first round will be a formidable opponent. I’m just happy that the important puzzle pieces will be in place come their first playoff game in a million years.

Merry Christmas Rams People. Be well. It’s frigid up here today.

I have an enthusiastic kiss on both cheeks for all of you people. Nobody collected my hugs last week though.

Yay!

I don’t think that the Rams can count on the offense alone to score enough points to win this game. I’ve said this before, but the Rams offense has not had a lot of success vs very good defenses. The offense didn’t put up a lot of points vs. Seattle, Minnesota or Jacksonville. Like in the Jacksonville game, it will take something extra from the defense and special teams to pull out a win over the Eagles. I am dubious about the Rams chances.

Wow! A winning season! I am pleased.

I get the excitement of the Rams getting a Sunday primetime game, but I hope that the game stays where it is. I hate when the Rams play night games. It interferes with my routine.

The Rams offense will need to score a boatload of points to keep this game competitive. Any backups playing significant time for the Saints is obviously a good thing.
