    Yes, it is time. I think Fisher has given Davis enough rope that he won’t look like he lied to Davis about not having to look over his shoulder when he first made him the starter. I can only assume that there are some veterans who still want to win some games in this lost season, and some might see Davis as a potential obstacle to winning at this point. I wonder if there will be some locker roomgrumbling soon?

    I don’t know what Hill has left in the tank, but I think Davis has done enough, or too little, or whatever, to earn a clipboard and cap.

    This Rams team rmeinds me a little of the 2012 Cardinals. Enough emerging talent to compete, but the hole at QB is too massive to overcome. The Cardinals rebounded with the hiring of Arians and the acquisition of Carson Palmer. I don’t think the Rams make a change at HC , nor do I want them to. However, they need to find their Carson Palmer. Maybe Bradford ends up being that guy, but it would seem foolish for the Rams to put all of their eggs in that basket. Anyway, despite the fact that this team seems headed toward a Linehanesque type record, I do not feel nearly as hopeless about this team as I did in 2007-08.

    I’m not trying to be a smart ass, but I’m really not sure what constitutes a personal foul or a fineable offense, in the NFL. Just when I think it looks obvious one way or the other, it turns out it could not have been less obvious.

    Maybe he’ll rebound, I don’t know, but I doubt he shines against Arizona’s defense. I think he’s going to have a lot of pressure coming right up the middle. If it’s a Seattle type game plan with a lot of “long handoffs,” maybe he has a solid outing.

    On another note, I wonder if we’ll ever see Tavon Austin run a wheel route from the backfield. I keep thinking that one must be coming, but it never happens. I’m not criticizing Schottenheimer,just wondering.

    Harbaugh:
    (On if Rams injuries impact their preparation or if they will make adjustments based on injuries)
    “No we don’t. They’re a salty opponent, they always have been. Strive to play good football because that’s what it’s going to take. It’s going to take us being at our best and that’s really where our expectations are for today: to have a great practice and have great meetings.”

    (On if anything from the last 49ers-Rams matchup sticks out in his mind)
    “Not one thing in particular, no.”

    Salt is bad for the blood pressure they say. Maybe the Rams plan to slowly overload he Niners with salt and after years of sodium abuse the Niners will finally succumb to cardiovascular issues leaving the Rams victorious.

    I predict 5-10 minutes of hoping that the inevitable doesn’t happen, followed by about 5 minutes of anger, to be quickly followed by acceptance and a smattering of indifference.

    If he plays, I expect a better game from Jenkins compared to his last game vs the Niners. I also expect a lot of running plays and bootlegs to Ogletree’s side if the field.

    I don’t know about replaced at this point, but I think he needs some real competition in camp next year.

    If saffold can return I wonder if they keep him at guard and begin the Robinson at LT era now. Or will they keep GR inside for the remainder of his rookie year. I’m all for getting Robinson going at LT now. Although, Austin Davis and the rest of the rams QBs might feel differently.

    It sounds like the only way this might change is if the issue is addressed with Mr. Dick, or his principal. If you do go to admin make sure that you are as specific about the incidents as you were here, and anticipate what Mr. Dick’s possible responses will be as well. I get the impression that Mr. Dick will just keep ramping it up if your son does anything that might show him up, or offend him. Also, Mr. Dick seems like the sensitive type who offends easily.

    How would your son feel about you going to admin, or emailing Mr. Dick?

    I kept waiting for a fumble, or a pick 6 from Davis late in the Seattle game, but thankfully it never came. That play with the spinorama followed by the shovel pass to Cook seemed like certain disaster, but it worked out for positive yardage. Seems to me that Davis’s playing style will cause a few white knuckle moments every game that have me either shouting profanely at my TV, or calmly remarking “I knew he had it all along.”

    I was waiting to see if there was going to be cake before I joined.
