This shit could get worse before Sunday. Be handy if a few Cards had (asymptomatic) covid too, to even it out.

I blame Mcvay for dropping the Ball.It starts from the Top.

Yeah- Brockers won’t be missed all that much from what I saw last Sunday.
My reasoning is there is a guy A’ Robinson who needs to step up get some extra Reps in as well.

Hits keep on coming. And somehow this season coming down to one game with backups is fitting. I mean they have nobody to blame but themselves.

Just go that fuckin W.

At this point, it seems like we need Green Bay to win if the Rams are to make the playoffs. I do think Green Bay beats Chicago. The Packers have lots to play for still and Rodgers is having an MVP season. But the Bears are red-hot, so you never know...

The Rams wouldn't even be in this position if they took care of business against the Jets.

If we miss the playoffs two years in a row with this roster (and generally staying healthy, until this past week!), I hope that McVay is on the hot seat for the 2021-22 season. I find him generally talented and hard-working, yet overrated and as culpable as anyone for our recent struggles (though there is plenty of blame to go around). True, we are not the same team we were a few years ago when we went to the Super Bowl. Our o-line is much worse, which severely limits the offense. We also no longer have a MVP-level RB to drive our run game, no deep treat at WR, etc. But every team has its problems. Welcome to the salary cap NFL. It is up to the coaching staff to scheme around your team's flaws en route to victory. McVay seems unable (or willing... see my next sentence) to do that. McVay's offense, at this point, seems repetitive, stale, unchanging, and predictable. There is no excuse to miss the playoffs twice in a row with this roster.

And replace him with whom, if he doesn’t reach the playoffs again? I’d give him a much longer leash.

Looks like we'll finally see a Robinson playing a high % of snaps. That is, assuming he too does not have covid...

Brockers has been playing at an extremely high level. This is a huge loss. When we re-signed him, I was not sure if Brockers had much left in the tank, which was troubling as it was a 3-year deal / $24 million. Under Staley, he has been completely rejuvenated. He only turned 30 last week, too. I expect Brockers will be a very productive Ram for the duration of his deal. And if he continues to play at this level, the money is more than well spent! (y)
