I hear tons of frustration about our QB situation and the question must be at this point:
Who Do you Want as our Starting QB next week?

I say Goff, if the O is gonna be this pitiful at least get the youngster the reps he is gonna need to be ready to lead this team to the promise land. I really think Fisher should do a secret ballot vote and let the players chose the QB. They can continue to lose ugly or they can prepare Goff for the future. Hell Mannion looks to be big and tough see if he can get some respect from the opposing D.

There's a reason why some QB's are career backups.

Some just can't handle the pressure.

Johnny Hekker. We gotta give his right leg at least 1-2 weeks rest and recovery after tonight. His right arm is solid!

I'm afraid Fisher would rather go down in flames than change policy. He's already stated that it would be Keenum & Mannion for today and Keenum & Goff for game 2, at least that's what I thought he said. The thing is, when Keenum was dying out their, he didn't bring Mannion in. Would it be any different with Keenum & Goff ? Hell, if Keenum manages one TD in the first half next week, that may be enough for Fisher to stick with him throughout the game. Goff may not be ready, but was anyone really expecting a total Rams meltdown like we witnessed tonight ? I'll guess should Keenum go scoreless while looking clueless again for the first half against Seattle, we'll see Goff after halftime, if Keenum loses next week while playing out the game, we'll see Goff starting game 3. jmo.

My dad is 72 years born and bred Londoner and you guys probbaly know more about the Thames barrier than he does about football he was watching the game with me (he knows I'm a Rams fan ) ... His exact words to me about Keemun ?

"That guy throwing the ball .. He isn't very good is he ? "


That's all I need to know start Goff

Start keenum. No need to get goff crushed Behind that offensive line while throwing five yard outs and screens to tavon. Let goff learn for at least another month or more and see what he's got

with the score out of reach, why in the hell didnt mannion play ?? mannion's not a rookie. fisher is in over his head. how on earth do you evaluate what you have when it doesnt play? seems like the 8% were savvy to this nonsense. titan fans are besides themselves right about now.

Let Fisher's replacement decide as that should have been his last game as the Ram's coach.

Mannion.

I'm going on the theory that Mannion isn't ready, and no amount of rushing him will make him so. So might as well go with the next man up.

Johnny Manzeil would be an improvement.
Seriously, trade Keenum for Travon Boykin/Seahawks, never going to happen being interdivisional but Wilson ain't going anywhere for years, they don't need Boykin.

Goff. Let him make his mistakes in a season where it doesn't matter and then get rid of fisher the minute after the final play of the season. By next season Goff should be ready to play like a seasoned vet.

Told you he wouldn't play Mannion. And he won't.

Fisher's as predictable as ... Well, I'm tired and the most predictable thing I can think of is a Fisher Offense!

This season is gonna test the attachment of Rams fans. Folks thought the move would be the hardest part for fans...doesn't seem so looking forward now.

I said Mannion.

I really have to wonder if there are not too many cooks in the kitchen. How many teams have a dual OC thing kind of going? Does anyone else in the league do that? All we've heard is how prepared Keenum is--how he knows the book. But are these guys getting mixed signals? I mean--clearly there were moments when SOMEONE(Keenum or a receiver) did NOT know the book. On the one screen to Gurley it looked like no one was out there to block. Did they not know where to be? And are there two OCs or really three--with Fisher putting a box up and ordering them to stay in that box? It's a mess. None of us know who is at fault on every play but we can see mistakes and confusion.

Let Mannion test the waters. If he looks every bit as pathetic as Keenum than I wouldn't put Goff anywhere near this offense. Why destroy him before he gets started? Maybe it's not that Goff doesn't get it as much as it is just too unorganized to get. Before we throw Goff in there I'd like to see that there is SOME potential for him to do something with this offense. Let the rest of the offense get something together before throwing him in there. But Keenum looked bad. Real bad. I'd like to see someone else drive for awhile.

Keenum's arm is so weak. He had nothing on his passes. But, the placalling was more to blame. That is what happens when no OC in the league wants to work under you. You hire a tight end coach and hope for good results.

I have defended Fisher till now. This game was hard to watch. Goff should have been working with the 1's all offseason, which is like working with everyone else's 2's. If this is how the season goes, Fish needs to be gone, even if it means taking a chance on a no name.

I'm going with Mannion because that's who should have ended the game yesterday. Goff simply isn't ready but Keenum obviously isn't the answer. Mannion can go out there and compete and if he's awful no harm no foul but at least we'll find out. Hopefully Goff is ready by mid season if Mannion sucks too.
