GDT: Rams at Dolphins

[Ramrock 1]

Once again get to go to sleep and start the work week of feeling nauseous after seeing that display on the field hard to even describe the gut wrenching feeling I get when I see them lose so poorly I’ve always felt that way since I was a 12-year-old boy 44 years ago.

Not sure this is the year for us. Our McVay is getting schooled.

 

[Ellard80]

Figured Goff would end up passing 60+ times once we abandoned the run.

we ran the ball quite a bit even when we were behind by 18

Dumb post really.. we never abandoned the run until mid way through the 4th.

we beat Chicago. We need better adjustments on offense. Goff was awful today and Everett sucked.

chicago defense was OK. I feel like they lost alot of their toughness when Fangio left.

Patriots Defensive Coordinators own McVay.

What's wrong with the Rams - I think the coach and players live on past accomplishments

 

[Ram Ts]

Can’t wait to see Everett’s PFF score for today. Is negative possible?

 

[Billy Baroo]

Gulp. Can we chalk it up to short week and fourth time playing early game on east coast?

I just feel like McVay has a hard time making adjustments and stopping what's not working. I disagree with you on Chicago's D though, they are talented and a tough D. Your definitely right about Pat's Defensive coordinators giving McVay fits.

I'm getting sick if y'all questioning why McVay doesn't run the ball when it's working... He hasn't changed this in 2-3 years, why would he now? Dude just loves to pass the ball and seems so allergic to running the ball. It's a HUUUUUGE kryptonite of his.

He loves balance. And its helped him to being a top Coach. So something there is working for him.
We are not built like a team that gets runs from the QB too, yet we have great rushing numbers and the best QB throws outside the pocket.

Sometimes he gets outmatched by savvy coaches with extra time on their hands. McVay and Goff are both still very young and with youth comes learning from mistakes.
If they showed they couldn't learn from mistakes, that would be a problem. But look at what they did to Chicago 6 days ago. That was the first team to really have our number offensively. They don't anymore. That's adaptation. The problem with youth is sometimes you don't know what you don't know until you find out the hard way.

Mcvay gets two weeks to think about how to counter the zero blitz next time.

it’s going to come down to winning division games and making adjustments for a playoff run.

Bad games cause short term memory loss

Normally this offense eats a heavy man scheme. At least they used to. Changing out Jefferson for Reynolds should help them get back to that.

Goff played pretty tough down the stretch and got himself into rhythm. To be perfectly honest I'm fucking pissed that Everett couldn't haul that pass in and give the kid QB a chance to unfuck what he did earlier in the game. People crying for more run plays would have seen us lose much quicker had McVay done that. Throwing it not only allows for quicker scoring but it stops the clock on incompletions and sideline routes and milks that clock.

If you guys want to see us win a Super Bowl we're going to need a QB who can run a 4 minute offense and deal that fucking ball with deep and intermediate strikes to sustain drives and pull out games like this.

 

[LouisvilleRam]

I see several posts blasting Everett but only saw the terrible drop on next to last drive what other mistakes did he make? Was following game through red zone and on ESPN gamecast so didn't see miscues

 

[Ramrock 1]

I just can’t let it go. Did we just get our asses handed to us by the....Dolphins !! Is this real ? Am I dreaming ? Somebody wake me the fuck up from this nightmare bizarro world we are living in now ! Unbelievable.

If there was ever the need for a new coaching position on the Rams, it would be, "The First Half In Game Offense Adjustment Coach".

 

[WestCoastRam]

It seems that ever since McVay lost LaFleur and Taylor that his ability to add wrinkles to his system whether week to week or at half-time has taken a substantial hit.
