So, we know they are totally capable of being lying, weasely dicks, if they think they can make more money.

yeah.

i think demoff said he was a rams fan growing up? so i’d think the fan in him would recognize the need to keep the horns. but then there’s the side of him that moved the team back to la for more money (well kroenke with demoff carrying out his orders)…

so… if they saw changing the helmet as a way of rebranding the team…

i’m a little worried. i don’t think they would. if it was a city other than los angeles, i think the possibility would be stronger that they would change the helmet. but there’s too many ties with that helmet and the city that i don’t think they would want to change it. it creates a connection between the old la rams and the new la rams.
and i think the old los angeles rams fans would be in an uproar…

but is that the fanbase he wants to target? i’m a little worried.

The Browns DLine & secondary scares me a bit. Their LBs, not too much. Our OLine has not played well either.

how do they compare to the panthers dline?

Reportedly the entire Browns OL is a mess.

excellent.

how good is the browns oline? seems to me the rams d has to get to mayfield and often.

isn’t grob the left tackle? would he be going against ad?

I thought the call on Noteboom was marginal, but only got to see it once on replay.

i didn’t realize that. but yeah. that call was ehhh… the defender was past the ball carrier. i mean really. what part of the defender was noteboom supposed to block? he had his back to woods.

Here’s the snap count through 2 weeks:

Rapp: 71 defensive snaps
Hager: 49 defensive snaps

Rapp is getting a lot of work, on pace for 570 snaps barring any changes in usage. Budding star who should only see his snap count go up tbh.

rapp has been unbelievable.

What do others think? What’s the “informal poll” on that?

well like i’ve maintained. i think goff regresses statistically.

too many things were going his way before and now he’s got oline issues. sully isn’t there to help him. the oline overall is not as good as it was in previous years. plus defenses have hours of tape on him and two offseasons to look for weaknesses, which he will have to counteract.

this isn’t the biggest deal. almost all qbs go through this.

the important thing is that mcvay and co not panic, but i really doubt that they do panic.

liked kupp’s catch and run.

defense looked solid.

offense continues to knock rust off.

second half goff was encouraging.

hope goff’s knocked the rust off cuz it’s gonna be a shootout.

damn. last second fg to win.

omg. texans just scored with 37 seconds left. 28-27 texans. texans actually missed the extra point, but then got bailed out by a roughing the kicker call.

i liked that last post.

my impressions is that the oline played well. the run game was consistently good. and the passing game seemed to come down more to goff’s rust rather than a lack of protection. but it’s really hard for me to tell, so it’s nice to read reports like these and read what people saw.

losing weddle hurt the defense. they seemed to have more breakdowns after he left. hope he comes back soon. or maybe rapp can take on more responsibility.

i hope they can re-sign littleton and/or fowler.

i thought gurley was pretty good.

had some ball handling issues, but i attribute that to rust and maybe trying to do too much.

but when he got in a groove, he looked like todd. and that was against a tough defense on the road. he looked fresh. looked strong. and still has some speed. he’s just gotta stay healthy.

Said he’s seen tons of practices/scrimmages over the years, and the one he saw in Napa, was the most amazing by any QB he’s ever seen. Insane throws.

i hope he’s right. i still have it in the back of my head that we see some statistical regression this year.

the one thing i want to see is more consistency. he’s been good the last two years but maybe a little up and down. but he’s also only played three years. so. i’d think that’s pretty normal.

Noteboom is our next LOT.

again. i hope he’s right. i really like this guy. at the very least, it’d be great if he was actually an upgrade over saffold.
