Looking towards the 3/4 pole

[LesBaker]

We have Atlanta, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Baltimore and Arizona.

The two games before the bye week should be wins considering both the Bengals and Falcons stink and are a combined 1-11 with defenses that are porous. This should help the Rams get to 5-3 heading into the bye week. So essentially they have three weeks to get to work on things before facing the 2-4 Steelers who are falling apart at the seams.

The Bears are 3-2 but like the Rams are flawed, or at least have warts. Then the Ravens who have gotten fat on lousy teams. Then the Cardinals.

Quite possibly all of these games could be wins which would place the Rams at 9-3 heading into the home stretch..........and you guessed it..........they play the 49ers and Seahawks. A chance to reclaim the division is possible and it will depend on the next 6 games which are all very winnable.

The Rams have to take advantage of this soft spot in the schedule and I'm sure if I know this they know it too.

I agree as long as they truly get better as they go. And not to stumble into ther playoffs just to lose in the first round.

One game at a time I'm just looking for improvement. Address LG. Get the goddamn secondary to adjust to the relentless short passing that sustains drives and exhausts them. I can't even count how many times teams have thrown for exactly what they need on third down (or easily got most of it on 2nd and long) it's infuriating. Pray Allen improves at Center and the line starts to gel once they get LG sorted. And so on.

There are plenty of examples of teams struggling then getting it together. I'm stubborn and not ready to throw in the towel just yet. Maybe stupid is the better term idk.

I am sure we all thought Tampa Bay was going to be a win. The only game I think they would have a 100% chance of winning now, is if they played the Dolphins.

Atlanta offense scares the bejesus out of me, but yeah 5-3 is conceivable.

 

[socalrams90]

Can’t overlook any team. That falcons team still has an offense that can give us trouble.

 

[sjm1582002]

SF amply demonstarted they have clearly superior offensive/defensive line personnel compared to the Rams.

I do not think any of next six teams boast such an overwhelming advantage in the trenches, or elsewhere.

But then, neither did Tampa or Seattle.

One game at a time... like the Vikings have done, stack a couple of wins and see how you feel.

3-3 is okay position. It’s all how we do going forward.

Go Rams!

Spoken like a guy looking forward to a big turkey dinner!

Our o line has been horrible, but guess what he's missing touchdowns every single week!! And not tight window throws you would expect the 1st overall pick to make, I'm talking about wide open, no defender for 10 yards and he either reads it late or he's inaccurate type throws.

How about you MAKE those throws to help out your shitty offensive line. How about after you make a good move in the pocket to avoid a rusher, you make an accurate throw and not bury it at the WRs feet!! This is the highest paid QB in the NFL is that too much to ask?

There was a 1st down play today where McVay called a play-action pass, their defense was in nickel and only had 5 people on the line of scrimmage. We were in 12 personnel, and they had 5 people in the box, and we didnt run the ball. Goff walked up to the line, peered out at the defense, and said yea lets throw into this look. THAT IS A HUGE ISSUE, either McVay doesn't give him full control at the line which is an issue. Or, Goff trusts McVay soooooooo much because he's a "genius," that he thinks everything called will work regardless of what HE'S SEEING WITH HIS EYES. I just dont understand some of his reads in the passing game or what the fuck he's looking at. Peyton and Tom win on so many downs because of what they do pre-snap. I feel like McVay and his offensive stranglehold has really stunted Goff's growth in terms of reading defenses, and this is why the System QB narrative started.

He doesn't do enough when things break down, he doesn't do enough under turmoil. He doesn't SHOW ANY FUCKING PASSION and Im sick of that. He's playing like one of the worst QBs in the league, got his shit pushed in all SB long, and has the same nonchalant, indifferent attitude. I've played D1 sports and have friends in MLB, and I have NEVER in my life seen an elite player with that type of attitude. The best players let failure fuel them and respond like winners, and Goff just isn't wired like that.

Compare our soft coverage vs the Niners. Jimmy freakin Ward was like glue on Kupp on 3rd and 4th downs. Meanwhile Marcus Peters didnt even know where the sticks were and moves his feet the wrong way and is afraid to tackle runners. Tell me how this defense was any better than the Gregg Williams defenses from 2012-2016??

If you’re going to compare, please mention that Peters would have been flagged for DPI on both of those crucial plays. 100%.
