The Official Rams vs. Eagles Vent Thread

[-X-]

To be fair we never really had a chance to win this game. Philly almost gave it away with their prevent defense. We are 1-3 and staring 1-8 right in the face.

I disagree. 466 yards of offense and 4 scores don't happen against prevent defenses. Philly lucked into two scores off of specials teams and defense (something the Rams have had in the past too), and that's why they won. Their offense scored two offensive touchdowns and two field goals. 20 points.

FREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah been saying that for 10 years. Not gonna say it anymore. We may never get there.

Why watch football if change isn't beyond the horizon? Hell lets just lose hope. How about that?

 

[RhodyRams]

still no sacks..who lost all their money today?

 

[Sappy113]

Maybe the team could do something to make the fans hope and dream? That would be swell.

I gave you a like for use of the word "swell." Completely underutilized word, in my book.

Well folks there you have it proof, that marty doesn't have faith in Tavon or Bailey in clutch situations or when looking for big plays in the game he just doesn't like using his playmakers at all. Pettis thats a heart breaker for us and the rams two clutch drops especially the first one wide open. No excuse. At least it looks we have a Quarterback brewing,just needs time to throw the ball and find out where our defense is.

Agree they didn't look ready today. By the time they woke up and stopped making dope mistakes it was too late. AD is going to be a great backup and safety net. I feel confident we can go into next year with him backing up SB. If Bradford goes down then he can step in and do a decent job. Quick is the real deal. He's going to be a stud receiver for a long time.

I hate that damn Rob Lowe commercial.....and that "Jake from state farm" commercial

About the sacks, yes it's disappointing. But a lot of our sacks come in bunches. We've had lots of games where we get 4 sacks here, 8 sacks there, 7 sacks there, 3 there, so it will add up if we can get going. Obviously if this keeps up though, it's going to suck.

 

[brokeu91]

I will say this. I'm sick and freaking tired of the "moral victories". Yes, the comeback was awesome, but we did not win.

I WANT TO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I AM SICK OF LOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sick of being laughed at by co-workers. I'm sick of seeing us in last place. I'm sick of being a laughing stock. I'm sick of the comebacks that just never make it. I'm sick of the blown leads. I'm sick of the penalties.

But maybe even more, I'm angry at myself for believing the hype. EVERY...SINGLE...YEAR

I have only one vent: Jared Cook, regardless of what people might say about him, is still playing selfishly, and it completely pisses me off. That last throw to end the game, I saw Cook open, sure, but after the play, on the replay, he opens his arms wide as if to say, "Hey, you should've thrown it to me!" This is the second time that he's blamed Davis on something that wasn't the latter's fault.

If Cook can't get behind Davis as our quarterback and fucking support him, then I want him gone. Plain and simple.

I get you - and I can see why he pisses fans off but IMHO he's just not doing himself any favors. I think he's an emotional guy whos trying his heart out and he's just really frustrated its not translating into W's. He maybe doesn't go about it the right way. So he's not a leader. Doesn't mean he's not behind the team. I think he really cares.

why does everybody keep talking like Bradford is going to be tne Qb next year? thedude cant stay healthy and he probably wsnt be resdy at the beginning of season. Rams would be stupid not to draft a Qb in the first 2 rounds no matter how Davis plays

Who do you have in mind? Good coaches don't seem to be in abundance and Fish has taken a perennial loser and turned us into a team that has a chance to win every game. So who do you want to replace him that gives us a better shot?

No clue, that's for the rams to figure, I'm just a jerk with a computer. However the good coach thing I don't agree with, not anymore, I feel like fisher is another guy like cutler described, incapable of evolving with the game, he's been remarkably average since the turn of the century. I won't pretend like he didn't add talent, but let's be real here, he took a perrenial loser and its still a perrenial loser, just instead of blown out by the first they're fighting down by a lot because we fail to show up. Losings no better because its different than before.

Austin Davis is (currently) playing like our starter of the future, and some people can't wait to stick him back on the bench in favor of a player coming off of two ACL surgeries on the same knee. What exactly does Davis need to do to get the respect he's out there earning?

Can't we just let Bradford continue his rehab of walking on water and train our focus on the Rams who are on the field competing?
At least until the off-season?

Good question. Ask a Cubs fan the same question.

I agree completely. The Rams cannot pay him over $16m next year.

 

[LooNaTik83]

Cubs? How about them cardinals (baseball)....Ugh I'm biting my tongue.

Well they can, but they probably shouldn't.

They still lost. Next week they will likely find a new way to lose.

 

[AZRamsFan93]

True. This front office will probably pay $16m to sit and rehab.
