Welp, the concerns of some posters are starting to evaporate, huh?

No need to name poster names, but the following players or positions are not nearly the causes of concern that some thought during camp:

Goff. Yeah, he's gonna be a franchise QB under McVay. Little doubt about it anymore.

Gurley. He's now a beast as a RB and a pass receiving threat. A nightmare for opposing DC's. He'll have his 5th year option picked up at this rate.

Woods. This Niner game was Exhibit A why McVay wanted him. Nice reply to his disappointing Redskin game.

OL. This was maybe everybody's biggest concern. Mine, too. Well, it's still a work in progress, but there's been a HELLUVA lot of progress, so far. Kromer, take a bow, man.

Tavon. Ummmmm... I'm gonna take the high road here. But I still think that he's a man without a position.

After 3 games, maybe we can exhale about so many of our O pieces.

But that D? Dang!

Wade can only go so far on his reputation. Time to show us a much better D, Wade. We can't be scoring 41 damned points every week just to win by two.

New bigger ones have risen up too

Good observation but your forgot to bring up the other side of this observation. Other types of concerns have rose & loom bigger @ this time on Defense to take their place. Lets hope they clear up after 3 or 4 games too:cautious:.

A while back I lamented the "loss" of W. Hayes.

Then, Easley was injured and, as I feared, now the front seven are being "roughly handled".

Amazing to watch Goff emerge as a formidable, and game winning, QB.

It sure looks like McVay's Rams can score points at a rate that can give oppposing teams a real fight to the finish.

Based upon where this team was, you can't ask for much more than that.

I'd like to round up all the known Mannion fanboys and have them confess their guilt.
Where are they now?! :neener:

Feels great don't it? Sure would be nice to see the defense do a round turn as well.

It's possible too. That bad game vs the Skins left them no real time to make adjustments with the short week after. I am hopeful now that some padded practices and adjustments to playing time/snaps, i.e. accountability, occur.

If this defense can rebound to even middle of the pack this team is gonna make some noise.
