Well, I don’t think it will take three years if Goff progresses. Not when you consider the improvements made to the oline. Gurley appears to be refocused and should return to form. The receivers are a work in progress but it’s all about Goff. If he turns into the QB he was drafted to be then the offense will be fine.

If the Rams offense is still struggling two years from now that most likely means Goff was a bust.

This is good…

Goff has already been in private coaching during the offseason with quarterback gurus Tom House and Adam Dedeaux, and he appeared to be noticeably bulked up.

Of course, once again, that has nothing to do with my argument which is that America is great except for the other people.

I can just picture you and Colin Kaepernick, drinks in hand, lounging around his heated pool in your 49ers gear laughing it up and ripping on America and everything we hold sacred.

Who makes the decision to fire scouts? Seems to me the scouting department would fall under Snead’s purview. Scouts never seem to stay anywhere very long – they are constantly being recycled from team to team.

This is when Maher is at his best…when he’s ripping on the GOP for, well, being the GOP – or the democrats for being spineless or for being complicit in the GOP’s douchebaggery.

Where he and I part ways is when he starts discussing feminism, Islam, political correctness, etc…

Regardless of how many players remain on the roster I think it’s safe to say that McVay is inheriting a lot more talent than Fisher did.

My favorite signing of the offseason thus far.

Many of the helmets look better in their rival’s colors.

Not the Rams though. That is hideous.

I was expecting to see a blue and gold or blue and white 9’ers helmet but apparently the Rams aren’t their biggest rival anymore, at least according to the folks that put this together. As a matter of fact, none of the other NFC West teams’ helmets were decked out in Rams colors. This isn’t a surprise although I bet if you asked Arians and Carroll which NFC west team they wanted to beat the most over the last few years, it would have been the Rams. Of course, Fisher was behind a lot of that animosity. Now that he’s gone Arians and Carroll probably won’t have such an emphatic circle drawn around the Rams game.

Let’s see if McVay/Phillips can do something about that.

He’s already a free agent. Apparently he learned about the suspension on the same day he was visiting the Dolphins. Now THAT is the sorta luck one only has when they are associated with the Rams…

Well, wv-ram is, like, TOTALLY worried about Hav at guard and Grob at Tackle.

I dont think Hav is a guard and i dont think GRob is a Tackle. But what do i know. Apparently the OLine coach thinks he’s a miracle-worker. Or else the organization just feels stuck personnel-wize.

That is precisely my response.

Well, I don’t know if the Hav-guard and GRob-RT experiment will work out or not, but even if it doesn’t it’s no big deal – simply switch Hav back to RT which we know he can play and move GRob to guard which he had at least a sliver of success with as a rookie.

I don’t know how any of this has DISASTER-level ramifications as stated earlier in this thread.

As a matter of fact it never would carry that much weight to a TRUE Rams fan – although I could see how a couple of Seahawk or LA Charger fans might claim it would to foment distrust of McVay and his staff which is likely what is going on here.

DISASTER would be the announcement that GRob is moving to center and Spruce is moving to RT but I’m almost certain that ain’t gonna happen.

I’m not worried about moving Havenstein to guard and GRob to RT. That could become a pretty good tandem to run behind. Worst case scenario – it doesn’t work out so you switch them back (GRob to guard, Havenstein to RT).

Hard to get too excited about any of this until they get a center though.
