No.

Not while the offensive line is doing “Cotton eye Joe” and it’s a new line of dancers every time you blink.

I suspect Baltimore will just line up to stop Gurley and see if Keenum has any better luck than Foles.

Ravens: 16
Rams 10

Offensive line? When did that ever matter in football? Besides, Robinson is working to correct his ‘technical’ issues. There’s a whole big article about it.

So relax.

Rams got this.

Yes the Rams can win. As a matter of fact they will win as long as their defense returns to form and they get at least average play from Keenum.

Yeah, because what this game showed us is that despite all the draft picks and the trades and the hype nothing has changed since Fisher took over. This is still the same mediocre team with an uncertain future now made even worse by a huge issue at QB.

What the hell happened to G-Rob ? He was gawd awful today.
There is no acceptable excuse for this team’s play today

Apparently G-Robb leads the league in holding calls. He’s on the 5:15 to Bustville.

Yeah, I’ve had about enough of Foles. He’s getting worse by the week. I don’t know why he is so horribly inaccurate. I don’t know why every ball leaves his hand like it was punted. I don’t know why he is so slow in his progressions and therefore holds the ball so long. I do know that the Rams can’t win with him at QB – not as long as he’s playing like this anyway.

It’s time for him to sit and watch.

Even still, I think the run game will be out the window; between Donald, Brockers, and Fairley I think we will get eaten up inside. Our best bet for consistent production is going to be Alshon and Bennett in the 7-12 yard range.”

This guy sounds too intelligent
to be a Bears fan.

Yeah, except he thinks if Quinn and Long are out the Bears should be favored? I’m not saying the Bears can’t win, (but they can’t) but there is no way they should be ‘favored’ even with Quinn and Long out.

Favored?! The Bears?! Over the Rams?!

Someone should take a pair of tweezers and carefully pull his pea brain out through his nose, rinse it in a mild bleach solution to clean off the ‘stupid’ and then reinsert it back into his heretofore useless head.

Then maybe he won’t make ridiculous pronouncements like “the Bears should be favored if blah blah blah”…

I wouldn’t do it if I had his concussion history.

I was really wrong about Foles. I figured a guy who had once had a historic year had to be at least solid.

He isn’t. I’ve seen enough this year to get a feel for what he is doing and not doing. And he really sux.

People talk about the opening play, but they tend to say it wrong. He didn’t “miss” Britt. He didn’t even see him. And he had time, Britt had major separation, and clearly that had to be the focus of the play as drawn. Foles never seemed to see Britt as an option. On the 1st scripted play of the game.

I know. He hit one later. In between pathetic, fluttering, indecisive flings (you can’t call them passes). I also know Tavon dropped one, the WRs struggled to get open, Cignetti and the OL struggled some. But Foles had time to do things. He just couldn’t. Couldn’t see the openings.Couldn’t hit a receiver when they were open. Couldn’t even challenge the WRs to make some plays with any deft throws.

Foles is a major problem, IMO. And his problems aren’t the sort that are going to get better. Especially with the experience Foles has.

I was so pumped that the Rams had figured a way to get a decent QB and save cap money. Well, they blew it. And now we face the biggest headache of all. Trying to find a decent QB from a mid-table draft position.

Ugh. You know, it’s fairly easy to imagine the OL settling in and picking up a WR or two next year. But finding a QB? That’s hard to do.

Hell, maybe Mannion will be able to play.

Yeah, Foles is not who I hoped he was. Unfortunately there’s nothing they can do THIS season except to keep playing him and hope he gets better. Then try to get Mannion ready this offseason.

I always think about this when they mention the Rams defense and talk about their front 7.

The secondary for the Rams is very underrated.

Those guys are quite good.

Jenkins transformation into a true shutdown corner this season is truly remarkable.

Not a big fan of the nickname Mob Squad. Didn’t like Sack City, either.

I don’t think they’re good enough to even have a name right now. I think if they actually win something, like some playoff games, then they’re worthy of a title.

Well, I think they are on the verge of being good enough to have a nickname. They’ve played well in every game this year except one and have been dominating in some games.

I also didn’t like “Sack City” at the time. I would have gone with ‘Sack Louis’. It’s sorta reminiscent of the Steelers’ nickname ‘Blitzburgh’ in the 90’s.

But I like Mob Squad. I especially like that it was coined by a player (Aaron Donald) and not a journalist.

Enjoy this day

Interesting. There is only one elite team in the top 10 (Pats) and there are 4 losing teams in the top 10.

I guess ‘toughness’ (as Bruschi defines it) isn’t that important.

Happy B-day, Mac!
