InvaderRamModerator
Todd Gurley will not talk about his performance without bringing up his offensive line. #humble @STLRamsFans13 @KSDKSports
now i’m sure that most running backs credit their olines in interviews. so there’s nothing earth shattering there.
but when you block for someone with that much talent. with his physicality. and someone who clearly puts that much work in. my guess is you block a little bit harder for him.

InvaderRamModeratorthose dbacks hit hard. well coached. i believe that’s what cecil was known for back in the day.
gurley. wow. just wow. more than a wr. more than a qb. more than a rb. rams needed someone on offense who could just be flat out dominant. regardless of position. i just hope fisher does right by him and gets him some help.
rams hit a home run with this guy. just like they did with donald.

October 24, 2015 at 2:10 pm in reply to: catch percentage, drops, and other bad things from the dark side #32842InvaderRamModeratori really do think they’re better off finding out what they have in bailey and quick.
they are what they are. cook and britt.
I don’t think Bailey and Austin have any drops. I think if they involve Britt and Quick early in the game it might help them. Get them more into the game and improve their concentration and focus. They will trade Cook for a bag of chips.
yeah. bailey, austin, and quick. this is who they should focus on. and kendricks when he comes back.
i don’t hate britt. but i don’t think he’ll ever be anything more than what he is. cook? yeah. get rid of.
at the end of the year reevaluate and see if someone else needs to be brought in.

Williams on Joyner.
Just a bit I liked.
.
Joiner is playing well. He also tackles well.
joyner has been a revelation with gaines out.
tough too.

InvaderRamModeratorOh Bernie, you knucklehead, you.
Do you really think a healthy Sam Bradford wouldn’t have had a significant impact on the Rams’ record the past couple of seasons? Really? There were plenty of games there for the taking but for a lack of a competent QB.Just before this, Bernie had been ranting over the radio about how no one really appreciated how good a coach Fisher was. It was only he who could see it. He mentioned the 5 year stretch between 1999-2003 and how the Titans were tied with the Rams for the best record in football.
In reality, Bernie is really a Big TROLL and should be banned. imo
hahahahaha!
this!

InvaderRamModeratortre mason missing too.
but joe haden is out for the browns. i’d try to catch them sleeping and pass the ball some. play action.
October 24, 2015 at 9:54 am in reply to: catch percentage, drops, and other bad things from the dark side #32829InvaderRamModeratorthey shoulda picked alshon not quick.

they are what they are. cook and britt.
InvaderRamModeratorshould be a good challenge for this dline.
InvaderRamModeratoryikes. i hope someone is watching gurley’s touches.
October 23, 2015 at 8:47 pm in reply to: catch percentage, drops, and other bad things from the dark side #32796InvaderRamModeratorLooking just at drops now (not catch percentage)…Kendricks, Britt, and Cook all fell off from where they even were last year.
i can forgive kendricks. playing with a bad thumb has got to be hard.
cook and britt are dead to me.
gotta start giving bailey and quick more playing time.
InvaderRamModeratorFor Cleveland, CB Joe Haden and TE Housler ruled out.
joe haden out? that’s huge. wonder if the rams try to pass it more.
InvaderRamModeratorthis team is able to draft and develop defensive backs with success. i would lean toward letting him walk. save the big bucks for an aaron donald. i don’t know that i’d put jenkins at that level.
InvaderRamModeratornot so sure about gaines. i think he might be fragile. what does the draft look like for corners? if they sign him, it’ll have to be at the expense of another player.
my only question with him is what happens when he gets that huge pay day? right or not i question his motivation.
InvaderRamModeratori would not. but. if i would, i would not discriminate.
i would divide into as many different demographic categories as possible. or as many as i could think of. by age, ethnicity, geographical location, occupation, wealth, gender, sexual orientation, religion… i don’t know if i’m missing anything. and then i’d just randomly remove a percentage within each category.
not that i’ve ever thought about this.
the only other solution i can think of is getting off this planet.
but then you’d just have more humans.
InvaderRamModeratorthe one question i gotta ask myself. can he be as good as eli manning?
i’d say he definitely could be as good as eli manning. and i’d also say that gurley would rival any running back the giants had.
and that dline could be as good as that giants dline.
that’s what i think of when i see these rams play.
InvaderRamModeratorfor what it’s worth. the rams have held wilson, roethlisberger, palmer, and rodgers to their season low qb ratings so far. the only exception is cousins who had his season high qb rating.
InvaderRamModeratori don’t know. bailey hasn’t dropped the ball much from what i can remember. austin has looked fine. kendricks. i attribute that to the bad thumb which required surgery.
the main culprits for me have been cook and britt. and quite frankly. i’d be glad if neither of them were on this team next year.
we’ll see about quick.
InvaderRamModeratoreven if they can’t get rid of him, he should not see the field anymore. don’t need quitters on this team.
October 19, 2015 at 7:40 pm in reply to: Wagoner: Garrett Reynolds has much to gain as a starter #32606InvaderRamModeratori think we’ll end up being happy with this guy.
he gave up a cheap sack letting matthews through untouched. but hopefully the line as a whole tighten things up.
i think pro football focus gave him a positive run blocking grade which is more than i can say for saffold.
InvaderRamModeratorI dont even wanna think about the state of the message-boards,
if the Rams/Fisher lose at home,
after a bye, to the Browns.w
vI think there’s a good chance they will do just that.
If they do, I think a reasonable response would simply be to say, “Yeah. Saw that one coming.”
It’s a very simple situation. If the Rams are serious about being competitive, they’ll make a statement in this game. They have the talent for that.
If they don’t … we’ll know that the Fisher Pattern is still in effect. Fail. Tease. Fail. Repeat.
i agree. not a must win game. but definitely a statement game. lose and they’ve only shown that they’re the same inconsistent team that has frustrated us in the past.
InvaderRamModeratordenver’s offense might be worse than the rams.
Johnny Football is drinking again,
Cleveland loses a gut-wrencher in OTin Cleveland, and Rams had a Bye and play at home.
Now dammit, good teams are supposed
to win games like this.Right?
w
vyou would think. the rams should beat the browns.
InvaderRamModeratordenver’s offense might be worse than the rams.
InvaderRamModeratorthis would be wonderful.
get some more snaps for harkey.
and send a message to the team too.
October 17, 2015 at 11:05 pm in reply to: A closer look at what could be next for Rams and Saffold #32506InvaderRamModeratoryeah. i almost feel as though they’ll be better off this year with reynolds.
as for the future hopefully wichmann or the other guy will be ready by then.
InvaderRamModeratorthat’s pretty much how i feel. as of now, i’m happy with him as the head coach. and i fully expect this team to finish with a winning record.
but i might feel differently when the season ends and no progress has been made.
—————————-
Sometimes it just depends who’s available. I mean
if Sid Gillman or Bill Walsh is available,
I’d probly be in favor of a change, myself.My own view of Fisher is on record — I think
he can definitely build a “winning team” ie.,
a team that can win a division. I just dont
know if he can be more than a Shottenheimer-Chuck-Knox
type. I dunno.My biggest concern is with his ideas about Offense.
I am not sure about his notions in regard to the
passing-game. I dunno.w
vummm. yeah. i don’t know either. should be an exciting next 11 games.
InvaderRamModeratorOverall, I favor Fisher staying. Ask me again at the end of the year.

InvaderRamModeratorthe passing game with the rbs is another thing cignetti needs to develop too. there’s real potential there.
InvaderRamModeratorwell i am a fan of kendricks. i don’t think he’ll ever be a superstar, but he can be that hybrid player that fisher loves. do a little bit of everything and add to the deception that gurley and austin provide.
and this is what i’ve been wanting. other players to play off of that potent gurley austin combo. he doesn’t have to light up the stat sheets. just do enough to keep defenses honest. i hope that this surgery is successful cuz the rams are gonna need him. harkey too.
the biggest question mark i have is at receiver. can they get bailey more involved. he’s their most sure handed guy. get the play action working, but receivers need to catch the ball. the video seems to imply that’s already started happening, but receivers are dropping catches or foles will make a bad throw.
it’ll be interesting to see if the offense can continue to progress the next 11 games. if i’m cignetti, i’m concentrating on these three things.
1. offensive line has to tighten up their pass protection. get guys on the same page.
2. foles working on the timing with his receivers. his passes are just a little bit off. the potential td throw to kendricks for example was just a little bit behind him. is he just inaccurate or is he just throwing to the wrong spot? i don’t know. but a lot of times those passes are just a half a second behind the receivers. maybe it’s just getting that chemistry down.
3. find one receiver who can consistently bail the defense out with some first down catches. i think that guy should be bailey. i don’t trust britt. i don’t trust cook. i don’t know about quick. i’m hoping it’s bailey. get him some more snaps.
