Are We Toast?

[Steve808]

I'm not giving up on the Rams yet for this season. The NFC looks relatively weak but if our injured players return and the defense holds up, I could see the Rams still squealing out a 9-8 record, which could be in contention for a wild card. Maybe I drank the Rams koolaid, but no team has a lock on the NFC West just yet.

I think Morris has to get aggressive and try to force the issue to help the offense. But if we can right the ship, we still have key important players that can help us get to a good spot.

I don't feel confident, and I am hoping, but I'd like to see at least a run made by the Rams. We are the defending champs.

 

[Steve808]

If the Rams are out of the running, my only focus will be on hoping for misfortune and cursing the whiners, so they miss the pos season as well. That will help me feel some comfort.

 

[XXXIVwin]

We will rally around Matt Skura and Jeremiah Kolone and Oday Aboushi and... aw never mind

This season is lost. A combination of injuries and lack of urgency has led to an unbelievable spiral from the top. 3-6 is totally unacceptable with the talent the Rams have.
McVay looks defeated and guys are just going through the motions.
Beyond disappointed with the undisciplined and lackluster effort.
Get your shit together and show some heart.

Where’s a fork when I need one?

There’s a decent number of NFL players with a Super Bowl ring. There are far fewer with 2. I’d love to see inside McVays, Donald’s, Staffords, Kupp, Ramsey’s and Wagners heads to see how much they want that 2nd ring. I believe it’s strongly coveted and McVay needs to tap into that now for next year (yes it ain’t happening this year). That’s starts by seeing exactly what you have this year for next year and developing a retooling (not rebuilding) plan.

The schedule is easy the rest of the way minus KC but we need a cohesive OL and not sure we are going to get that. It seems to never end Jackson goes down with blood clots. I saw I think it was 2012 where we had tons of DBs go down but this season has been nuts.

 

[André]

I suspect we are done. But I'm still going to cheer for the Rams and hope that they are able to set themselves up for next season. A Super Bowl every twenty years is nice - and better than the average team - but I'm still looking forward to winning one again in the next couple of years.

 

[Ballhawk]

Right now I'd be surprised to see this team beat anybody. Between the completely dysfunctional offense, and the defense
that is playing like they have an offense that is scoring thirty points a game, we are done.
And on top of that, there is absolutely nothing special about our special teams either.
Hopefully it won't take years to correct.

 

[Varg6]

We’re done but I would like to see Tutu and Lance get some experience. Kupp is done. Give some of these guys playing time. Get creative with Tutu and his speed. Motion him. Use him as bait. Do something with the guy.

Define ‘toast’.

Are we gonna win SB? Nope.

Are we gonna make playoffs? Unlikely.

Can we at least finish with a winning record at 9-8? Mathematically possible IF Rams can find a running game AND keep Stafford upright.

 

[Mojo Ram]

It’s primarily up to our playcaller IMO. Then player execution.

 

[Turducken]

Just got to take it one game at a time.

 

[gabriel18]

I’ll still watch every game like I have for the past 20 plus years
(since Sunday Ticket)
My son and I have watched them together, even when we knew the had no chance of winning.
I didn’t expect a repeat , but I also didn’t expect a total collapse.
The life of a Rams fan I guess.

 

[Kupped]

Toast.
Injuries just keep piling up.
But I'll watch.. I'm hoping to see development in young players.

 

[Ellard80]

I mean miracles happen... but ya this team is decimated on the offensive end.

 

[raised_fisT]

Blessing in disguise? We get to see who are our "keepers" for next season.
Get Stafford to develop chemistry with players not named Kupp.
See what Kyren can do. He looked good in the limited action last week.

See which defenders will step up and be playmakers.

See if the coaches and McVay can put their talk into action.

I followed the team thru worse times than this.. ain't stopping now.
