    Slight chance of a win, but only if Quinn
    is a hundred percent. They would have
    to win it on Defense, and without Quinn
    the D aint scary enough.

    I’m assuming Quinn is not going to be
    a hundred percent the rest of the year,
    so, thus, consequently:

    Rams 5
    Bengals 20

    i’d give him one more year. that’s it.

    Sure, but if a stud LT falls to them in the draft
    do you take him?

    Fisher is certainly having his worst week since he’s been HC of the Rams. He’s under fire for keeping Keenum in the game…

    http://www.turfshowtimes.com/2015/11/23/9782026/st-louis-rams-jeff-fisher-case-keenum-concussion

    Enh. I think Fisher has a long record of handling
    injured players pretty carefully. Seems like he
    always brings them along slowly and gives them
    plenty of time to recover.

    This situation is easy to second-guess after
    slow motion replays etc. I just dont
    put this on Fisher.

    Yes. With Mannion, the smartest QB in the room.
    One more year for Oline and a good draft. Even Fisher can get 10 wins.

    I would like to see some Mannion
    in the last month of the season.

    I mean, why not? I’m not saying
    they should get him all bulgerized
    but let him play some — give it to Gurley,
    throw quick passes, that sort of thing.
    Get him some experience. Its too early
    to do it now, cause they aint gonna admit
    the season is over, but maybe in the
    last month or so.

    Is it sad to say that the highlight of football season for me these days is the off-season?

    If Fisher is back, i wonder if he will feel pressure
    to draft players who are ‘game-ready’ instead
    of raw players with high-ceilings?

    I am ready for some game-ready players.

    To me there’s no doubt. Had Foles not melted down and the OL not been so injury wracked, they would have been fine.

    Well, we’ll never know ; the injuries
    wrecked any chance they would have had…but
    I dunno.

    My own thing iz, I cant quite figure out
    what is:
    1) Fisher
    2) and what is injuries.

    Could be they would have been double-digit
    winners without the injuries.
    Though, maybe Foles was too flawed, and Fisher
    sucks in regard to offense. I am not sure
    anymore.

    Either way, whether its key-injuries or Fisher
    or both — This is the most disappointing year
    for me, since the year the Rams crashed and
    burned the year after they met the 49ers in the playoffs.
    89? 90? somethin like that.

    It would not surprise me if they
    beat the bengals btw. They’ll get a few
    more ugly wins, I would think. Gurley
    will have a few more good games,
    and some turnovers will go their
    way. Enh.

    Sure made wonder how they have the spotter do his/her job. Does this person sit up in a booth with binoculars? Are they on the sideline? There was a Rams game early in the season where a timeout was called by the ATC spotter and to me the injury was far less obvious. It’s a big area that the spotter has to cover with his or her eyes. So I can see how some instances could go unnoticed. Having the benefit of a tv camera pointed right at Keenum made yesterday’s example obvious for viewers. Still, given Case’s reaction it’s surprising that he stayed out there, or was allowed to stay out there.

    Was it Greg Robinson the pass-rusher zoomed past?
    Or was it someone else who got Keenum’s brain scrambled?

    Disappointing losses are starting to bleed together for me. Hard to distinguish among them. This team leads the league in disappointing losses.

    ——————————

    This year is different for me. I was
    really expecting a great defense,
    excellent special teams, and an offense
    that started slow, but got better
    as the year sent along.
    I expected Foles to be a
    clutch gamer, who managed
    a strong short-pass-game and
    hit big plays, enough to win.
    I expected big things from Stedman.
    I expected more from Britt.
    I expected more from Greg Robinson.

    I dunno. I know the injuries to Q
    and Long have hurt the D,
    and the OLine has once again
    been decimated, so maybe the
    team would have come on, had
    there not been injuries. Sigh.
    Maybe.

    But Fisher just aint growin on me.
    I hate the idea of starting over with
    a new system, but I also dont much
    like the idea of year FIVE with Fisher.

    I just know i cant even stand to WATCH
    this offense. I cant even watch it.
    Its unwatchable for ‘me.’

    I was expecting ten wins. What will
    they end up with now?

    Yup.

    The National media keeps talking about this game
    by pointing out the Rams strong Defense,
    but they haven’t been factoring in
    the Q-factor. It simply AINT
    the Ram Defense without Q,
    or with a damaged-Q.

    They need a Max-Q
    to be a max-Q defense.
    They cant have a min-Q
    or no-Q.

    This is all advanced algebra,
    people.

    D – Q = L

    Even if you use Quantum-Kabbalistic-Algebra, and subtract
    Foles and add in Keenum, its still
    a loss: D – (Q-F) + K = L

    Yes, well, had your original post said “earth” foxes, then I would known what you were talking about. But it didn’t say that, it said “ground” foxes.

    I think that was intentional. An intentional ground, if you will.

    Adding a new stat.

    Defensive big plays against.

    My source says “a passing big play is one in which the yards gained on the passing play equal 25 yards or more while a rushing big play is one in which the yards gained on the rushing play equal 10 yards or more.”

    Rams rank 23rd with 29.

    .

    Well that is an important stat right there,
    I would think.

    These two stats seem odd to me.
    It seems odd a Defense would be
    this way:
    COMPLETION PERCENTAGE: 31ST
    PASSING YARDS PER GAME: 5th

    What does it mean?

    Maybe Fisher felt he had to change QBs just to keep Foles from getting his OL hurt defending his interceptions.

    Well lets face it, the Rams OLine was not keeping up with its
    usual injury-rate. Something ‘had’ to be done.
    So Foles stepped up.

    I dunno, but the vast majority of those hi-lites

    one pass-rusher attacking from one edge,

    How is it possible that Foles could play SO poorly? Many people who were against the trade said there were flaws with Foles’ game, but there was nothing that could have predicted this complete futility. Of course the new offense and poor o-line play are contributors but…sheesh. It’s like his overall suckiness is greater than the sum of its parts.

    Yeah, its bad. Story of the year
    for the Rams. I think it
