I was very underwhelmed with canales. Sitting all the starters is strike one, 7 oline was strike two, and sticking with Plummer leading to a shutout was strike three. I see no reason to believe this team has improved 

If Luton had the whole second half the vibe might be a little more positive around here, and that's on the coach. The whole board was over Plummer by the 2nd quarter

Okay, that was like watching old people f***, I admit. But overall, I'm quite impressed with the defense. Evero showing once again why he is and should be a sought after HC candidate. He really can make chicken salad out of chicken poo. 

The offense looked as bad as I expected given that we inexplicably rested our starters. And the really sad part is I don't expect much improvement when they are on the field. 

It would be funny as hell to see Tepper can another HC but if this team looks like they did tonight all year long then you absolutely cannot let Evero walk out the door

I am VERY pro offensive minded HC but Evero just seems like a damn good coach period

I think Evero should have been hired as coach.  He is clearly the best coach and leader on this team.

He was more qualified than Canales.

He's also more capable of running his established defense while also dealing with Head Coach responsibilites. Canales has to be qb whisperer which he obviously did nothing for Plummer, play caller and head coach in a brand new system. If he wasn't already in his own head he's going to be after this poo show when the press actually has something to critic him on whenever he'll actually do a presser because it seems like they're avoiding doing one tonight

I would have done anything to fire John Fox and hire an offensive coach ~20 years ago.  But man I feel like I've seen enough.  We need a defensive coach.  REPENT

I mean Wilks had our best offense in the last like 4 years with like a week to turn it around

Just goes to show you the impact that really good coaching can have.  Most people would say we lack talent on defense, but you can see the coaching in how they play.  The tackling is sound.  The fundamentals are there.  People are on point.

Very discouraging about the offense.

Yeah and it was there last year too. He is good at his job. 

It could hold a guy like him back because he could actually be a better hands on coach and defensive strategy than a staff and player manager.

    • Teams do some super stupid stuff with mid-fairly good QBs. I think they are just absolutely terrified they will be stuck with a QB that is not the quality of the QB they have now, even if its someone like Daniel Jones. Lots of trash QBs go in the first round. I encourage you to take a look at the sad, sad list of first round QBs in the last 15 years.  
    • No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.
    • We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.
