Anybody else think playing stafford is stupid?
I know Stafford would demand to play — and I’d say No.
This season is over. Next season is not. Yet.
w
v
wvParticipantAt the moment the playoffs in the NFC look like:
Division Winners: Vikings, Eagles, Seahawks, Bucs
Wildcards: Giants, Cowboys, 49ers.
wvParticipantIf Kupp cant play, I really dont wanna see Stafford out there, either.
This could be like watching the 97 Rams offense.
w
v
wvParticipantI got no real criticisms of McV or the coaches.
Just looks like:
- massive injuries
- Key personnel losses: Von Miller, OBJ, Whitworth
- And a go-for-it-now(2021) gamble (which paid off last year.)
I just dont have much of an ’emotional’ reaction to this year, because of the Ring they won last year. That Ring just makes up for a LOT with me. Probly be two more years before i start bitching.
w
v
wvParticipantWill they win another game?
w
v
wvParticipantI dunno about you guys, but I’m starting to doubt they can
run it back.
w
v
wvParticipantI’m not sure i remember a situation quite like the Akers thing.
I dont have the slightest idea what the disagreement is between Akers and McVay.
w
v
wvParticipantThat was one of the worst helmet-to-helmets I’ve seen, ever.
w
v
wvParticipantIt’s not the same team, for sure. A boatload of OL injuries. Yes not having Miller, OBJ, & Whitworth. But that 2021 Rams playoff team was the real thing. They beat Tampa, SF, and then Cinn, all with 4th quarter comebacks. What this team is reduced to now is no reflection on what they were then . Including the super bowl, in the last 8 games the Rams have played 3 LOTs, 7 OGs, and 3 OCs. No offense looks good under those conditions.
==
Agreed.
w
v
wvParticipantWell, to state the obvious the rams are not an elite NFL team.
Can they win more than they lose this year? I dunno.
w
v
wvParticipantwvParticipantChiefs offense shredded the 49er defense.
w
v
wvParticipantwvParticipantAt 3-3 in the NFC West the rams are “in a good spot,”
unfortunately they also have too many fatal flaws to be serious contenders for a Ring.
Pass-Rush, OLine, WR, RB — too long a list.
Some of that will improve, but not enough of it.
And god help them if Stafford or Kupp go down.
w
v
wvParticipantI thought the difference in the Chief-Buffalo game this time around was Von Miller.
w
v
wvParticipantAs bad as Noteboom has been, is it an overall plus or minus that he’s gone?
wvParticipantAnother pick-6. Teams dont usually overcome pick-6s.
A broken team beat a bad team.
I’ll take it.
w
v
wvParticipantwvParticipantThats great, Jack.
I believe WVU is still the “no.1 party school”
w
v
wvParticipantMan. We knew losing Whitworth was gonna be problematic but Noteboom has never played ‘this’ bad, has he? Wtf.
w
v
wvParticipantIt’s not an entirely fair or valid comparison because in 2007, while their OL was damaged early and often, the Rams could still run the ball with Jackson in most of the first 5 games. In their first 5 games of 2007, the Rams had 458 yards rushing, including 2 100+ yard games, with an average of 90.9 yards per game. Jackson just made a difference, you had to defend him no matter what, so there was less pressure by a certain small percentage. In 2022, it’s 312 yards rushing in 5 games, or an avg. of 62.5 yards per game. That of course means a bit more pressure. In 2022, teams, as we know and can clearly see, can afford to play pass first against the Rams without defending the run the way you would if they had an in-his-prime Jackson. That basically averages out to 2.4 more pressures per game in 2022 as opposed to 2007, fwiw.
==
So, yer saying McVay is just a figure-head then?
w
v
wvParticipant“The Rams’ 84 pressures given up through five weeks is their most in the PFF-era. Closest was the 2007 Rams that allowed 72.”
I mean, what can ya say.
w
v
wvParticipantOline. I got nuthin other than the obvious. Oline.

October 7, 2022 at 10:35 pm in reply to: setting up Dallas (us, reporters, twitter) … & game is national #141065wvParticipantLooks like another ugly loss to me. I cant pick the Rams to win against any team with a top 15 D-Line.
w
v
wvParticipantJeezus. Stafford is gonna get killed.

wvParticipantMissed the game, and i dont wanna watch the low-lites.
Looks like the season depends on whether McV can patch together
a decent OLine.
I hate to see a great vet-QB battered all year. Not a good plan.
w
v
wvParticipantskip to the bayless segment (cant believe i just typed that) and listen to him give
the percentages of black coaches and the positions they coach. Its like, 80 percent of RB coaches are black but 90 percent of QB coaches are white, etc.
wvParticipantI picked the Lions to win their division. Just watched the hi-lites of their loss against the Vikings. Detroit had that game and totally blew it.
They are an exciting team. Only weakness Sunday was their run-defense.
Goff looked good. Still there is something about Goff’s pocket-presence that is not a match for Stafford. I cant quite even describe what i am talking about.
