Haha I’d be VERY surprised. I don’t see more than 1-2 more wins on the schedule 

As would I. Of course on any given Sunday and all it could happen.  I think the winner will be whomever sucks the least. We are the current champions of the suck so the odds are against the Rams.

Honestly, the first game starting a backup QB can be a total crapshoot. Opposing teams don't have much film, so there's less to exploit than a multi-season starter. Kyle Allen comes to mind. Hell, Cooper Rush is 5-0 as a starter.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we come out and win this one...before the losing streak starts.

Edit: I'll add, I'd also love to see us win this week, just to make Rhule look especially bad.

It will all depend on how we handle Cooper Kupp.  The guy is a beast and can find a way to get open.  If Wilks plays an aggressive defense it might be possible. 

I think it depends more on our own offense.  If we can protect PJ and he can get completions (and avoid interceptions), we have a shot.  If not, it's going to be a long day for us, even if Kupp is sitting on a beach in Hawaii.

What has changes that is going to lead us to wins?

 

I think Wilks is smarter than Rhule and he is going to say, probably already has, to McAdoo

‘you need to come up with 10 plays that this  offense can run for positive yards period. 10 plays that can be executed with timing and precision and in practice this week, they are going to be run over and over again and I’ll be there overseeing it’. 

im dead serious on this. You don’t learn to be a ballroom dancer if you can’t do a box step or a foxtrot 

this offense is at the box step level.  

the defenses already know McAdoo’s offense. He isn’t going to fool anybody but himself   

Walker gets rid of the ball quickly…even if 50% of the time it’s to the other team

I saw that talked about on nfl network also. Don't buy into how bad the Rams are right now. They are still a 10x better team than the Panthers.  

Coached, sure.

Otherwise they have all their money in a QB, WR, DT and CB. They're missing a lot of talent that helped them get to the SB last year, and yes "fug them picks" worked, but now they're missing young, cheap talent to replace that talent. On top of that, Stafford may be playing through an injury.

This is purely in the bigger picture of the NFL and not jsut about or matchup, we're still gonna lose lmao. But if we had a competent offense and a good coach, I'd say we're better than them this season. Rams are trending down in the NFC.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
