That is a pretty awesome trailer. Last years condiment bowl was one of the Rams more complete games of the year.

Acting is why he retired young. The Browns told him he couldn't act any more as long as he was playing football, and he called their bluff.

I did not think so that I know this.
Thanks for the 411.

I have FEELING after tomorrows game Case will be doing some of this:

Login to view embedded media

They could stand to get more creative with him then...

Screens
Move the line
Pitch it
Go heavy....I mean HEAVY.
Dual backs
Tavon and Gurley back there

I don't know man, I'm not an OC but I'd like to think between Gurley and Tavon, one of them should be wreaking havoc on a weekly basis.

I'd have to really look at the breakdown but it sure feels like a good portion of his runs are within the tackles.

I saw one screen i think in two games.

Hard to say after a couple games. On one hand, the big bodies up front have to do their job. On the other hand, 5 or 6 guys blocking 8 ain't exactly in our favor.

I like his odds better in Arizona than in Tampa unless our line really shows up.

I didn't notice it at halftime actually, was socializing with my neighbors and friends. Now the 2nd quarter, I was stuck in the beer/water line and a head trip. Our concessions had water, and I saw people refilling bottles with the fountains (which I would have done if I didn't need to wait in line for a beer) Damnit!! why don't they have beer fountains!!!! This is BS!!! :burp:

The Patriots are prepared every game (from a player and coach standpoint).

And they execute! On offense and defense. I don't see many drops, missed tackles, missed assignments, mental mistakes. Sound, mistake-free, fundamental, football. Not perfect...they're beatable...but week in, week out...they're prepared.

Pisses me the f$ off!

Thanks @Tron although I disagree with you putting the whiners above us. I mean, who have they really beaten anyway?......


:baghead:

So a radio and TV show?? Nice!

I remember that game ... very exciting, but very frustrating in the end. Our defense was as bad as our offense was good. Nobody moved up and down the field on the Bucs in those days ... but we did. And the Bucs didn't move up and down the field on anybody with that offense ... but they did on our defense that night.

I have some concerns over this game. More travel, another QB who can move and create with his feet, post-Seahawk letdown etc...but then again it's week 3 and maybe the Rams are ready to break training camp mode.

I'm sure Fisher will get right on that, starting Brown over Gurley....

The injuries have to do with RBs hardly getting any preseason carries. Same thing happened last season.

I would not be surprised to see some Brown against the Buc's, Benny Cunningham is a little Dinged-up!

I see it a little differently. I don't think we can consider Barron a safety at this point at most he is a "hybrid". Rams have been pretty steadfast in calling Joyner a Nickelback. Harder than playing outside according to Fisher. They seem to love him there I dont see them moving him in to a full time deeper safety role. There are packages where he does safety like things, but IMO just Williams being creative. It also certainly looks like Joyner is going to play through the broken toe and didn't look too bad doing it last week. Even with Gaines hurt Williams was inactive on game day, so its not like we are loosing a key cog. With Sensabaugh failing Hill was always going to be the key reserve, not sure how much better Williams would be in that role.

Mo is the starting FS in the base defense and moves closer to the line of scrimmage when our backup FS Cody Davis comes in. TJ currently doesn't have a backup and with the number of 3 safety sets the rams play the rams would have no depth if one guy went down.

Yes we do see things differently its all good for A real good conversation too...:yess:

Nowhere else in the NFL would a tall lanky 6-2 211 pound Mark Barron be considered a outside LB'er other than in a Gregg Williams defense....Barron is a true NFL strong safety in my mind who can play the WSLB'er position in this defense. Even the Rams still call officially name him a Safety not a LB'er but I fully under stand where you are coming from.

You say McDonald has no back up....I would say that our starting strong safety TJ McDonald is backed up by #1-Mo Alexander, #2-Mark Barron & now #3-Isaiah Johnson, looks to me that TJ has some serious great back up in my small mind. Heck even Nickle back Lamarcus Joyner played strong safety for FSU for two seasons. Throw in that Coty Sensabaugh is more Nickel than outside corner don't be surprised if we don't see Joyner lining up @ SS at times this season.... when as you state Gregg Williams gets creative.

P.S. It would be interesting to see just where Lamarcus Joyner did line up in the Seattle game. How many different positions did he play? I could swear he played up close, then way to the side & back then back next to Ogletree, then back deep & yes he even played some Nickle..........I am .

They're nervous because they don't know what to expect......pretty much the same boat we're in, except we have all our important pieces.

"Do the Patriots want to trade us something for Keenum? A late 3rd rounder next draft? That way they have a good #2 once Brady returns."

The cheaters would win the Super Bowl with him and then Billicheat would trade him for a first rounder.
It's happened before!

If Youngblood could play with a broken leg, and get a sack, what's a toe? That's Rams Defensive football!

Both statements are true - many sued - most PSLs were purchased under the FANS contract - and the FANS group prevailed in court. Other PSLs (a little under 2000) were not sold by FANS and were instead sold directly by the team. And to clarify- FANS doesn't mean fans of the team - it's a corporation that was a sales agent.

Anyway the FANS contracts were well written and the contracts that the Rams used for the direct PSLs were not. So this judge ruled against 44,000 or so PSL holders here and in favor of about 2,000 - those 2,000 bought directly from the Rams and the Rams lawyers did a craptastic job of writing the PSL contracts.

Yeah - FANS was a corporation that was responsible for selling the PSLs as part of the agreement to move to the Lou.

I'm still not sure that it is a matter of the FANS, Inc. contracts being well written and others not. It depends on what was being presented in the cases. Apparently the three cases were similar enough that they ended up being combined into one. But also apparently, there are two other cases pending - which would explain attorneys choosing not to argue certain points at this time. The Lawyer's credo: Never ask a question to which you do not already know the answer.

Only 2,000 claims are at stake at this point. If the other cases could potentially result in more, the attorneys would be fools to show their hand in this case. Better to get through the other cases then (maybe) use the rulings toward appeal of the others.

We are also assuming that an appeals court will not find that the judge in the case had a bias. IIRR, Limbaugh was involved in some other litigation regarding the Rams and the CVC. Not sure but I seem to recall seeing his name and wondering if he had relation to Rush Limbaugh as he is (again IIRR) from that area. This is just throwing shit at the wall to see if it sticks. I have no idea if this will come up or not.

Interestingly, this article tends to indicate that no one is going to get squat even after the ruling. I never trust anything being spewed by that jackhole Ganis so take it for what it is worth. He's been wrong far more than he's been right. http://www.latimes.com/sports/rams/la-sp-rams-psl-lawsuit-20160922-snap-story.html

We can only hope Cooper suits up because Quick is useless

And thus the crux. I don't think Fisher led teams do that. They force guys into roles or schemes not suited for what they're talented at, instead of molding what they are good at and adapting scheme around those strengths.

Click to expand...

Wait, but isn't that why Jeff Fisher has an aggressive defense, b/c of a talented front 4? Surely he made that unit based on the DL?

Isn't that why they routinely try to get Tavon into space and utilize him as a PR too? Or feeding Todd Gurely?

The Rams' issue has always been instability at QB. And when it was during Sam Bradford, you could tell how they used him too.

Pats, Steelers, Broncos and Cards are the real frontrunner s

I'm not going to listen to it!
