Rams hire Groh

[DaveFan'51]

Hope he's better than Garcia was!!

So, Groh did third down game planning and Bears were 6th in the league in third down conversion rate. That's got to be a plus, right?


"Coach John Fox opted to retain Groh after taking over last season. His duties included game-planning for third-down situations. His guidance helped keep the offense functional in 2015 despite a rash of injuries at receiver."

Well, let's get this guy a franchise QB that make his and Boras's jobs easy.

Do you think this could be the year the Rams make a big play for a QB? Trade way up in the draft and take the top rated QB, who just happens to be from California. Would definitely make a splash with the Rams going back to LA.

This better be the year they do it. Shit or get off the pot.

I like that the assumption is in place we will have a passing game....

I actually started to prepare a post pointing out the feasibility of snaring the Cal kid as we move into our LA digs. If our receivers are sub par in effectiveness, it is best to grab the best QB we can get. The Gurley Man will make his job so much easier and allow him to acclimate himself more quickly.

Groh's connection to Jeffrey might be able to bring him here, along with the excitement of being on the first team that LA has had in 20 years.

Fisher has connection with Tennessee, who said they're willing to trade the pick.

Could the stars be aligning for the Rams?

I seen a mock that has him going 4 to Dallas. I think Cook will be only qb left when we pick

That's one mock not sure if Dallas passes on some of the defensive players to pick a QB in waiting that high, however, I do believe the Rams will have to trade up to at the very minimum 10 to get him.

I love me some Al Groh
If his kid is 1/8 his dad, we are in great shape - excited about this hire. I'll take "Gase Light"
It's smooth and refreshing
It's clear Fisher knows the passing game is killing his running game

as long as its not Cook...

 

[tahoe]

I cant like this enough!

$20 says he's our OC by mid season

Great hire, I don't think the rams even had a receivers coach. Which would explain a lot lol, maybe this guy can teach tavon how to run more than 3 routes and make it possible to stretch the field. I'm not sure why quick has been so unproductive but he has all of the talent and showed flashes last season to be a number 1 target, hopefully now being healthy he can go back to the player he was last season. Can this guy please teach Jared cook to use his skill set , dude is huge and fast !

I like this hire. Surprised we actually got someone most of us are liking.

so, are Marshall and Alshon products of Groh?

Or is Groh the product of Marshall and Alshon?
