A Look Ahead: What Rams Fans are Already Saying

Sup y'all.

I completely forgot I had an account here.  Just dropped in to say hi and to wish you luck Sunday.  You'll need every bit of it as our D-line and (quite likely) top corner are poised to return.  I was reading the forum, and the post by @hepcat about your winning % when scoring first or being scored on first, and that was pretty interesting.  I don't know how much that will factor into the outcome, but something certainly has to give here.

Looking forward to talking about the game for the next few days.

Good luck to you guys! Heck amid my trash talking lately, it really comes down to whether our DLine continues its success.

 

Our DE switchup I believe helps a lot. Ealy is worthless at RDE, and having him and CJ rotate keeps them fresh.

 

If the Rams focus on blocking Star, KK needs to prove why he broke out last year, and vice versa for Star's breakout last Sunday. 

 

Our top corner should be back in Bradberry, who got a better grade than Norman one week. He's shown to be our most consistent Corner. Worley is promising as well, and Leonard brings swag.

 

Our safeties can be exploited though, especially if Kurt plays injured. Your offensive line just has to play good against the front and Keenum has to be on point.

 

Offensively, stopping Stewart is a tough task for any defense, but if you stop the run game make the Panthers win it through the air. 

 

Trai vs Donald is a matchup to watch, and of course your defense isn't one to mess with. Whether RT remains with Daryl is still a toss up, and whether Remmers continues production and if we keep our quick pass game going will be needed.

 

Good luck to you all!

Well, therein lies the problem (for us, anyway).  The O-line hasn't been able to get its act together yet, and it's the primary reason why Keenum is throwing the ball so much lately.  Can't seem to get Gurley going and it's maddening.  Hopefully we'll be able to come out throwing strikes enough to back your defense off a little and give Gurley some opportunities.  Don't really want this to turn into a shootout, because Keenum is prone to making mistakes even if he is able to work the deep zone pretty effectively.

Serious question from a Rams fan perspective.

are you surprised Fisher still remains a HC year after year? Are you happy with him.  Outside looking in...it just seems weird he remains a HC with his record of success.

 

also, perception on Fisher's teams is, to put politely, they play a little after the whistle.  How do Rams fan define the tandem of your DC and HC?

What happened against Seimian in game one? Just because we have Luke doesn't mean we're going to automatically do well against rookie qbs. He's one player he can't control if our CBs get burned over and over again (ex. ATL, Saints games). 

Pretty bad examples, considering our starting secondary was pretty much injured.

And to make a point first game of the year no film on anything period. At least theres film out now on certain aspects of the Rams offense now.

Injuries are part of the game. And even when you have most everyone healthy its no guarantee of success against anyone, if you haven't learned that this season then you never will

Imagine if the Broncos lost both their starting corners. Thats what happened to us. Moreover, we didnt have Johnson until Arizona.

 

We should have a solid CB group going forward. Don't discount it.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
