August 12, 2014 at 8:00 pm in reply to: after 1 pre-s. game & all the camp reports what are the concerns v. good omens? #3867
InvaderRamModeratorgood omens. offensive line. bailey. austin. running backs.
bad omens. run defense. tackling. secondary.
InvaderRamModeratoryeah. second game needs to be better.
InvaderRamModeratordefense just looks horrible so far.
InvaderRamModeratori had my doubts about gilbert. i admit.
InvaderRamModeratorgreat adjustment by bailey.
InvaderRamModeratori thought robinson did a good job wiping out that entire left side. cunningham just had to beat that linebacker and then it was tons of open field.
InvaderRamModeratorstedman! great catch!
InvaderRamModeratorall tight ends and running backs so far.
greg robinson at left tackle now.
InvaderRamModeratordon’t get too adventurous on that skateboard, robert!
InvaderRamModeratorgood to be able to watch the rams again. even got a first drive touchdown!
InvaderRamModeratorit does come off to me as coming to the right situation at the right time.
walton had pretty much the same defense, but williams comes at a time when ogletree and brockers should have breakout years. and then to top that off, they add one of the more pro-ready defensive tackles in recent memory basically as a gift. not to mention joyner.
if the defense blows up, this will inflate his ego even more.
if the defense flops, i think his reputation takes a huge hit.
August 7, 2014 at 9:43 pm in reply to: Bernie: It's time to refocus expectations about Bradford #3537InvaderRamModeratormy projections for him this season are:
300-500 3500 yards 27 tds 10 ints 90.9 qb rating.
90.9 was what he had last year which ranked 11th among qbs last year.
InvaderRamModeratorthey’re all sons of bitches. but williams probably is moreso than the average nfl coach.
he IS from the buddy ryan coaching tree after all… that goes for fisher too.
InvaderRamModeratori’m not sure that i like these helmet cams.
InvaderRamModeratorif stacy can stay healthy. if he could just stay healthy. this guy is gonna be something else. just great running instincts. harder to bring down than jackson. and then everything else should fall into place. bradford. the wrs. he’s just gotta stay healthy.
August 6, 2014 at 2:57 am in reply to: Rams LB Ogletree could be scary good in his second NFL season/Balzer #3395InvaderRamModeratori remember ogletree having problems shedding blocks. what are camp observers’ impressions on how much ogletree has improved in this regard?
also. i’ve read that ogletree has spent some time working with the dline on pass rush moves. have any of the camp observers’ taken note of this?
August 6, 2014 at 2:20 am in reply to: Video: interviews with Greg Robinson, EJ Gaines, Shaun Hill #3394InvaderRamModeratoroh dear. greg is looking to hurt someone on friday…
something tells me he’s a completely different player when full contact is involved.
August 6, 2014 at 1:59 am in reply to: 8/5 Jim Fadler twitter reports from camp…and twitter reports from others too #3393InvaderRamModeratorreally liked the comments on robinson, mason, and austin. offense should be very much improved from last year.
InvaderRamModeratorwhat do people think of the new rule changes and the impact that will have on tavon?
i figure the new rule changes WILL help austin. with dbs not allowed to be as physical it should help a jitterbug type like tavon.
i also believe bailey is the guy to step. it’ll be austin and bailey. with quick or britt making a very effective third wr.
i also think that brockers dominates. it won’t just be donald. he’s the new guy, and understandably, people are excited. but brockers has come in the best shape of his life. he didn’t come in with the technical proficiency that donald does. but people forget. brockers is only 6 months older than donald. he came in as a young raw physical specimen. i fully expect him to have a breakout year. and then combined with donald, this dline should be frightening.
InvaderRamModeratornot sure i like this rule change. i’d like to see a rule change favor the defense for a change.
InvaderRamModeratoryup. cb. then free safety. then oline.
InvaderRamModeratori think it also says something about the wr corps too though. more experience. more confidence. i think they’re more capable of helping bradford out.
givens sounds like a disappointment. but austin, bailey, quick… sounds like they have all upped their game. this should make everything sharper. bradford can get the ball out faster. without hesitation. knowing that his receivers will be where they’re supposed to be.
InvaderRamModeratoraaron donald. sounds too good to be true. can’t believe the first preseason game is less than a week away.
yeah. between coach o and franke, bailey sounds like one to watch as is ogletree.
robinson still very much a work in progress. although i think things would look very different in pads and full contact.
InvaderRamModeratorgreat to hear about bailey. sucks that he’ll miss the four games. but i had a feeling. i think a lot of us did. that he could be the guy to step up. ultimately, i think he will be the one.
also great to hear about ogletree. he was a playmaker extraordinaire last year. i expect that to get better his second year under williams. good stuff.
InvaderRamModeratori’d like to see a lot of austin and bailey this season. that’d be entertaining i think.
InvaderRamModeratornice reports. many thanks to the guys who take the time to do this. it’s nice comparing all of them and taking in each of their insights on each player. it’s nice to be able to compare the different opinions and kind of get a general picture.
collectively it seems like the front seven looks as advertised. the secondary is still shaky. the offensive line is murky although it looks like robinson is improving steadily. disappointed in barrett jones. wide receivers look like they may be a pleasant surprise, and the running backs look solid. especially stacy.
InvaderRamModeratoreven with all the talk about quick, i think the offense is gonna have to rely on the 3 guys entering their sophomore season – stacy, austin, and bailey.
how much they can improve will go a long way in determining how good this offense can become. unfortunately, one of them will be gone for the first four games.
InvaderRamModeratorwhat really surprises me is that britt seems to be having a positive impact on the wr corps.
who woulda thunk?
also wondering why jimi lists brian quick as a wr/te. will he be playing some tight end this season?
July 30, 2014 at 7:49 pm in reply to: Offensive line, Does Robinson figure to be the left tackle? #2882InvaderRamModeratorwhat makes you think that? i don’t know either way. but what would draw you to that conclusion?
InvaderRamModeratorthat would be huge regarding the secondary. i see that as the only weak link for this defense.
also good stuff on robinson. tend to forget that he is relatively inexperienced. he’s a smart guy. not just physically gifted. can’t wait to see him in a couple weeks.
