    I think under Williams, Jenks’ considerable talent will finally be utilized and he’ll have a big year. I also agree with Jack and think Tru-Jo could have a big year as well.

    I have a book called “The Pinball Effect” written by James Burke, the host of “Connections 2”. It’s very much like the TV show.

    The original question was, if given 9 wins right now, would we settle for it? It’s not that I wouldn’t be happy with 9 wins given the strength of their division and schedule and maybe hoping for more than that is unrealistic all things considered. It’s just that I think there is a possibility they could do better.

    Afterall, the 9’ers and Seahawks could suffer major injuries…maybe even along the magnitude we are used to seeing all too frequently. In that case, the Rams should certainly be able to do better than 9 victories.

    Either way I wouldn’t want to set limits on what they can achieve. In July of 99, how many folks would have settled for 9 victories if it had been offered?

    Nah, they can do better than 9. I’m not saying they will, but they can. I don’t think 9 wins would get them into the playoffs anyway. I’m not even sure 9 wins keeps them out of last place so why settle for an improved but still sorta mediocre record when there is a chance for much more?

    That season saw the emergence of Wendell Tyler and Vinnie Ferragamo. For me, the Superbowl loss didn’t sting so bad because the Rams’ future looked so bright. I figured there would be plenty more Superbowls to come….

    Well, first of all “8” isn’t a prime number and if they can’t even get that simple concept correct how can we take anything else they have to say seriously? 😉

    Seriously though, nothing was said about Bradford that was incorrect per se, except when the host said something about Bradford ‘regressing since his rookie year’, which only means the host is merely a talking head and doesn’t actually pay attention.

    Florio noted Sam was playing really well up until his injury. However, he brought up that unsupportable hypothesis that the Rams probably would have traded Sam if they could hvae gotten something for him. It’s just that no one was willing to make a trade for an expensive QB coming off an ACL injury…

    People keep saying this, despite no evidence supporting it. In fact, Snead and Fisher have stated countless times that Bradford was “their” QB. Fisher even says he came to the Rams BECAUSE of Sam Bradford. Now I’m not saying there is no possible scenario in which the Rams would have traded Bradford, I’m just tired of people speculating that the Rams wanted to trade Bradford without any proof.

    Yeah, Bradford will land somewhere in that 6 – 12 category. I doubt he’ll ever be more than that. He’ll never be elite in the sense that Manning or Brady are elite but he could fall just beneath that level. I think he could be better than everyone in that second level exept perhaps Rothlesberger.

    The Rams are obviously improved and have gained ground on the rest of the NFC West but it will still be a tough challenge to finish above 4th place. However, I think all 4 NFC West teams will rank among the top 12 – 15 teams in the NFL.

    Glad to be here. The old place has been remodeled I see. Looks great.

    Thanks to RM for pulling our biscuits out of the fire.
