Actually, he looks exactly like Goff....And I wouldn't care....If they were BOTH 4th round picks...See the difference?

Okay, football question

Bunch of drops by the Raider receivers....Who's clamoring to replace Cooper & #15???? Oh, no one...figured.

Well, that's probably because their production outweighs their drops.

Clearly us Rams fans would hate to have two WR's that produced like that and had a much higher catch rate than our highest paid WR.

Hard to avoid "running" into the kicker there.
He did try to avoid contact.

Great line, check
Nice RB, check
Really good wrs, definitely a #1 somewhere out there, double check
Rookie QB Check
Yet, we only share two of these with Oakland, oh yeah, forgot a great coaching staff...
And they look exactly like us....today...why?
I say it's the QB's. What say you?

Obviously it would be nice to two productive WR's. Our highest paid WR is 3rd in receiving yards, and tied for 3rd in TDs on the team, he is also 2 drops short of Crabtree who leads the league with 9. Crabtree has 1 more yard than Britt and about 6 more drops.

Could be the defense they're facing + losing their starting QB + playing on the road + losing the turnover battle.

ok....
How about...and this is just a guess...that these 2 QB's are very similar in talent? In fact so similar that had you switched them...no one would know the difference?

Cook
14-36, 135 yards, 1 td, 2 picks

Damn those numbers look familiar....

And my point is....

I don't know.
Does this tie into the Rams situation somehow? Because I don't see the connection.
yeah X it does....in my 18 degrees of separation, I see a clear connection with how we should be playing this weekend...all these new nfc teams in the playoffs...our bounty of picks and how we squandered them...and how we blame guys on the team...

Sure, I think coaching played a part...but this is ultimately on how the Rams...MY Team...your team...has been assembled. Cook seems much like Goff...I wish we had Cook and a bunch of those players that Goff soaked up in compensation for switching with Tennessee...I will be interested in the Titans..much like the Skins probably watched us. For what could have been...
don't worry...I'll only be like this for a weekend...maybe two...as bad as we were last year, I miss Rams football.

I'm not worried about your posting. I was just curious where you were going with this. I think a lot of things played into why we're not a playoff team like Houston or the Raiders. Most notably because we don't play in the AFC South, but also because we don't have the QB the Raiders have, the defense Houston has, the receivers the Raiders have, or the O-line Houston has. Like you, I'm not all that enthused about our depth of talent on this team, and I didn't really like trading away 3 top 64 picks last year, and our first round this year for a QB who likely wasn't going to be ready to play. And if we were going to do that, I was leaning towards a different QB anyway. But I haven't rendered judgement on Goff because of all that. He needs to be put in a situation that's tailored to his strengths and given at least average protection. Then we can maybe get a clearer picture of who he is. He isn't one of those QBs who can make something out of nothing, because he's not a physical specimen like Newton or a brainiac like Manning. He'll need help to reach his full potential, and he didn't get much of it this year.

nfl.com has 3 items featuring/mentioning Watt. The guy played 3 games this season, literally had positive impact on them, played no part on their win and somehow managed to get tons of camera time. It's funny because one article blasts espn for focusing on Watt, but 2 links above this article is titled "Every JJ Watt sideline shot". I get that he's the biggest thing and a future HOFer, but enough. Osweiler, Clowney, Hopikins, etc. should be getting praise, not some cheerleader.
