    Former #Rams OC Matt LaFleur has been requested to interview for the #Packers HC job.

    too soon.

    i’d prefer to see what he can do with mariota, henry, and the titans offense for at least one more year before deciding his hc credentials.

    ME: IMO…Zac Taylor’s not ready to be a head coach.

    everyone’s looking for the next hot hc candidate.

    if they want someone to groom rosen, why not just hire mike mccarthy?

    The Bears are real, and they handled the Rams, and for the sake of self-respect, the Rams need to handle them back.

    i just want a playoff win. any playoff win will do.

    just for comparison sake.

    tom brady in his third year ranked 9th in qb rating. 10th in his fourth year.

    drew brees ranked 28th in qb rating his third year. 3rd his fourth year.

    peyton manning 6th his third year. 8th his fourth year.

    by the way goff ranked 5th his sophomore season. manning 4th brady 6th brees 24th.

    long way to go still.

    well.

    if i did the calculations right, goff ends up with a qb rating of 101.1 on the season.

    that should be good for 8th in the league. kirk cousins who was eighth with a 100.9 rating will drop a little after his performance today.

    that’s with kupp out and gurley for 2 games.

    that’s also with a bigger load on his shoulders this season compared to last season in test of attempts per game.

    and it’s a slight improvement over the 100.5 he got last season.

    not too bad. second season in the mcvay offense. third season in the league. he’s progressing.

    i’m honestly surprised they keep trotting barkley out there. i realize there were some rookie records to break.

    but shoot. he’s had to carry a load this season.

    i woulda protected him.

    #Rams signed former #Packers OT Kyle Murphy to the practice squad. The team placed C J.J. Dielman on PS injured list. Murphy, a former 6th-round pick out of Stanford spent all of 2018 on the IR, he’s started three career games in the NFL.

    i don’t know how they feel about noteboom, but the one pick i would make in this upcoming draft besides defense would be a left tackle in the first round. i don’t know if whit has another season in him.

    There;s the rub though. Don’t Rivers and Roethlisberger fit that definition? But I think it’s stretching the meaning of “elite” to call them elite.

    well i would consider those two qbs to be elite.

    what you’re talking about i’m not even sure brees and brady qualify as. i only see rodgers qualify as that kind of qb. a qb who can win games by himself.

    and i think mahomes might be the next guy to be able to do that. but i need to see more from him.

    those guys are rare. and it’s even harder to demonstrate. so it’ll always be open to debate. but i just don’t see a huge difference between a brady/brees and a rivers/roethlisberger.

    yeah. he had the shoulder injury.

    he’s got good hands. he really attacks that ball in the air.

    and his ability after the catch is very good.

    he’s got very good size.

    i really do think he’s a dark horse candidate next year. no one else on the team with his blend of size, strength, and athleticism. just need to find out if he can mentally handle it.

    To be elite it has to be something more than that. And it’s not easy to describe. I would say that to be considered elite, a qb has to demonstrate a few times a season that the team can win on the basis of his arm above all else. That’s getting into the territory of guys like Brees and Brady in his prime.

    i think that’s hard to measure.

    i am more in line with mcvay’s definition.

    consistency in production over a long period of time.

    and i’m talking about elite level production.

    so i would say a guy like rivers belongs in that conversation.

    consistent top 5 production over a number of years.

    now i don’t think goff will ever be on the level of an aaron rodgers. a guy who can excel no matter who is around him.

    but i think he can be a brees level of qb. he’s not even close to that yet, but i think the potential is there.

    Sean McVay “would think” Todd Gurley will be ready for the playoffs, however, there was a “but.” He doesn’t sound 100 percent sure TG will be good to go for the postseason

    hmmmm…

    I like Johnson, but to me he’s just a solid to good safety.

    i agree. i was hoping he’d be a little better this year.

    but i could say that about the entire secondary.

    or even the entire defense outside of one mr. aaron donald.

    i’d really like to see him get it.

    i’m not sure the rams can win the superbowl this year.

    this would be the next best thing.

    hmm…

    it’s his left knee…

    the same knee he had surgery on for a torn acl…

    might need clean up surgery in the off-season?

    he needs another week off. at least.

    i think mcvay’s got it spot on. consistency.

    he’s gotta do it year in year out. for the next ten years at least.

    a superbowl would help for sure. but consistently producing is the only sure way.

    I think the Rams need to do what it takes to win next week so they get the first round bye. I don’t want to see Goff come out until/unless the game is well in hand.

    yeah. and he needs the reps.

    playing in chicago again would not be a good time.

    also. watching the game everett looked pretty decent. he’s come on the second half of the season.

    my only worry is his ypc is very unimpressive. averaging less than 10 ypc. if he’s to become a bigger part of this offense that number has to go up.

    I think Donald needs 3 sacks next week to get serious run for league MVP, however.

    at least. but i think it’s too late. if the saints lost last week and then this coming week. then maybe donald has a chance to win. if he gets 4 sacks next sunday.

    but then mahomes would also have to lose again next week or he’d probably get it over brees.

    all under the scenario where the saints lost last sunday which they didn’t. i think brees is a virtual lock for the award.

    Full agreement.

    they also need to give some advantages back to the defense too without putting players at risk to serious injury.

    yeah i like watching good qbs succeed. but i also want to see good defenders excel as well.

    But just a caution. ARZ ranks 31st in run defense.

    yeah. and he’s got fresh legs.

    but. he also ran for over 8 yards per carry. after only one week with the team.

    we’ll see.

    well that’s actually good then cuz i think goff needs reps to sharpen up for the playoffs.

    only saw the end. but man the stat line on anderson looks good.

    i’m convinced the running game can be better than before.

    Btw, I suspect there might be a connection between Ben and Glory.

    They may have used a quick, short passing game against the Eagles. I’m not disputing that. I just don’t think it was as effective as you do.

    yeah.

    i don’t think it was as effective as it could have been.

    but that’s why they gotta use these next two games and just take live reps.

    that’s the only way you get better at it.
