    Naw, it was still good.

    It was a Rams game and I stayed until the bitter end. Which also means I didn’t have to fight much of a crowd to get out of the building. 🙂

    Warner made an observation—if anyone knows what a QB is doing and not doing it is him. He didn’t bash Davis, but he said Davis does some things well, but doesn’t handle pressure well. The late pick 6 a perfect example of that. They need to practice more on teams blitzing and reading it and how to beat it. It will continue until we beat it routinely.

    I noticed that in the Niners game that I attended. Davis simply doesn’t look comfortable in the pocket. He’s excited. If the play is on time and the receiver comes open, he can make the throw. But otherwise he just gets a little excited resulting in a pass thrown too soon or errant. He does look good on rollouts and when he is able to evade the initial rush, start rolling then make an attempt.

    Too early to tell on the deeper throws, but I didn’t have any wow moments.

    Mariotta is also the consumate team player, a student of the game and, based on reporters quotes of the coaches, the kind of person who the coaches wish would date their daughters. Not exactly Vick in some important aspects.

    He doesn’t get rattled. I think he’d do well in any offense. He will need some extra time to adjust to playing under center. He is also not as quick as Vick (escapability) although his straight line speed is pretty fast.

    A grave mistake?

    Is there any other kind…

    I think it is possible there will be 4-5 QBs worth taking in the 1st round next year. They won’t all go in the top 15.

    Mac, Take a look a Mannion from oregon State. Decent pocket passer who helps elevate a team that is consistently in the bottom third of the recruiting wars in the PAC 12. They won’t win 10 or 11 games so he probably won’t go high.

    What would it take to pry Cousins from the Skins? 🙂

    Mack, would you give a 4th next year for Sanchez or Hoyer to back up Hill and compete next year? Do you think either team would take that?

    I’d do it.

    I believe Austin Davis is probably not starter material and right now don’t expect him to be able to win many games with the Rams. I haven’t seen consistency from him.

    I think Hill can start and win (maybe 10 games), but only on a team with a very good defense, special teams, running game and a couple big receivers who will bail him out. We might have that this year, but everything would have to come together.

    Sanchez might be able to help them win some games.

    I sat on the Egyptian/Israeli border, half the time on a base camp and half the time on two different outposts, for 6 months in 1988 waiting for the stars and stripes edition that provided 3-4 lines of print about each game so I could feed, even that tiniest bit, my craving for Rams information.

    The downfall of the kicking game began with the release of Massey. Maybe he’d come back?

    I also think it is CB.

    I hope it isn’t WR next year. That would really be nice.

    If he’s healthy, I think it has to be Bradford.

    Others may also “break out”, but Bradford will get all the headlines and the big paycheck.

    If Bradford doesn’t break out, I don’t believe anyone else on the offense will have a breakout year.

    Brockers. 3rd year at the DT position and he has the size and athletic ability.

    McDonald will have a few moments, but he is a rookie.

    I think a reasonably healthy season on the offensive and defensive lines will get us to 10 wins. Given at least average health, Dline should be top 5…at least. Oline should be top 10…at least.

    I don’t even care about Bradford’s health as we have a capable backup this year.

    The two lines could both be very dominant. That is a recipe for success. Plus, they possess a lot of talent across the team going into their 2nd and 3rd years. It’s still a young team so I project some improvement from that young talent.

    I think 10 wins is probable.

    I like this part. I think they are doing the same thing with the Oline. It’s a good thing, imo. 🙂

    “The depth players on St. Louis’ defensive line are not just adequate. They’re elite. You can sort through every NFL roster without finding backups up to par with the Rams’ depth players.

    When it comes to producing a defensive line of historic proportions, these are the guys that will ultimately make the difference. Depth separates good from great.”

    in reply to: "If you could pencil in 9 wins" would you take it? #1079

    Nope, I’d play the season out. I expect 10 wins this year.

    If the Rams have the 4th best Oline in the league then we will 11 games. It’s a pretty big if…

    Lost and all alone I sat on the edge of the abyss staring into nothingness while images of pink elephants on parade shifted through my mind in a kaliedescopic shifting of blurred visions moving in a morass of emptiness slowly sucking the last vestiges of hope tightly gripping the edges of my soul wishing desperately for some small chance of reuniting with all of you. Then, an email, a glimmer in the darkness and a trail of joyous wonderment that nourished my heart and soul and brought me here.

    Anyway, glad we have a new home. 🙂
