PREGAME Cardinals (1-4) at Rams (2-3)

[BonifayRam]

Agree.

It will be nice to get to see Trost in action with my own eyes. I heard so many thoughts on where KT would end up. From college film, KT is a bona fide plug-and-play RG of the first order... an emergency LT with possibilities @ times outside @ RT as a back game-day relief, is what I project.

The supposed last 2-season OL team leader RG Kevin Dotson has turned in a dismal 2026 performance in a contract yr. Rams are NOT getting their $17.5 million out of him this season, whereas Steve Avila is playing himself into that future Dotson-sized contract playing the more important LG post.

AD99, BY00/09 I always try Byron and Kobie mixed up, Stewart and that special undrafted kid are gonna do something fun.

Well this is where the rams play down to the talent level of the team they play. They should steam roll, but they will fuck around till the second half and have to come from behind to win. The Cardinal coaches will have a game plan of all game plans and McVay and company will be baffled.

You know you are all thinking this. It is impossible not to the way the season has gone so far.

The game planning by our coaching staff has been atrocious. this is proven out by how slow this team starts every game. Also Stafford has taken at least a half to warm up enough not to over throw all the receivers.

Ok, I feel a little better now that I have burdened you all with my shit. LOL. Go Rams!

Real Rams Fans will Tell you that We have the Worst Special Teams under Mcvay in the History of the NFL since 2018. Our Defense is not even that Great. 2 Top 10 Defense years With Mcvay in his tenure, Yet Continue to Defend Mcvay. He is Declining and most dont see this. Its because of the fact he is not doing what Tomlin did, and Hiring his Friends. (But we have the best Yardage Defense and Offense in the league) Yet they cant Score and are 15th in Scoring for Off, and 20 Defense Points allowed. They Just let a QB rush for over 100 Yards on them.

Consistant Losses to Under achieving teams, who we should beat the shit out of like most top teams in the League do. Excuses like oh refs fucked us, Gets pissed, tells media" Im sick" every fucking week, to do the same shit the following week. Lose Again!
Failed Playoff runs due to being a Wildcard team every year. He even said he doesnt care about Seeding position! Yet its proven, over and over that Seeding Matters.
Slow starts that you guys point out that Tomlin did, Mcvay is Currently Doing what Tomlin did!

How about stop blowing 20 point leads to dumb ass teams.

Ru sure you’re up for being a Rams fan? There does not appear to be a lot of joy in dragon world.

 

[pvtdragon39]

He’s declining but just made the nfc championship game last year after winning two road playoff games to get there?

Tomlin had 8 career playoff wins in his 19 years of coaching.

McVay already has 10 wins in just 9 seasons of coaching.

So if you’re ultimate goal is to make it to the playoff and win games then Tomlin and McVay are nothing alike. So again not understanding that comparison

But the dragon boys(Pvtdragon and dragon blood) love that comparison. Not totally sold that they aren’t the same person lol

The Ultimate goal is to Win a Super bowl. A playoff elmination year after year, Divison round or Championship is the Same thing. You Fucking lost!

How do you not Understand that the same Shit every year gets the Rams Eliminated from the Playoffs after slow starts that Mcvay vows hes " Sick over" and doesnt Fix it? Thats what Tomlin did. Slow starts, and Didnt Fix his Problems, and Kept losing til he quit. He doesnt care about playoff seeding and it has bit him every year. His Play calling is Just Stupid sometimes, and he doesnt care about Special Teams at all.

I love how some of you always go to the Hes a Non Rams fan, or Hater, or the same person as another User Route when someone doesnt agree.

Oh look another " you're not a fan" post because you dont agree with any of it. I dont think most of you dont like debates about Mcvay and it hits a Nerve, and Throw around "oh you're not a fan, you cant handle being a fan" If anyone says anything bad about Mcvay. I dont think some can understand Those Stats I posted about Mcvay, that nothing will change unless Mcvay gets held accountable/Maybe Still wont.

Meanwhile Every week I see Fire Mcvay, Fire this one, bench Stafford for Ty, or bench that one. Yet Im the one "not up for being a rams fan" because I state the Facts about Mcvays/Team failures that are Constant biting us in the Ass and its Right in everyones face to Laugh at our team? I dont get it.

I said Xavier was an Issue = Im a Hater
Stated a Fact about a Eagles player = Im an Eagles Fan
Said We were going to lose to the Bills due to Flags and ST = Im a Bills Fan
Said we were going to Lose to the Panthers Last Season Due to our Shitty ass Corners/ST = " We cant lose to a Pathetic Panthers team, you're not a Rams Fan"
Stated Facts as to why we are losing = " Ru sure you're up for a being a Rams fan"

It's cognitive dissonance of an astounding level. McVay has been the best Rams coach possibly of all time. That clouds fans judgment when it comes to him. He is the best coach the Rams ever had (though I think if Vermeil had have stuck around that crown would go to him) but, unfortunately, the Rams don't exactly have an all-time lineup of head coaches. McVay and Vermeil are above them practically by default.

The faults you've pointed out about McVay are all 100 per cent true, but some people conflate "fandom" with "YOU CAN NEVER SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THE TEAM OR ANYONE WHO WORKS FOR IT EVER."

Guaranteed some of these people defended Jay Zygmunt and John Shaw.

Im actually worried the opposite happens. We jump out on them like 21-0 in the first half, and then McVay goes super conservative because he doesn’t wanna rub LeFleur’s face in shit. And because of that the game stays closer than it should.

It would be good to see him get some PT this year. I don't want any starters to get hurt. Get a nice lead and put him in at RG. McVay doesn't take starters out. Still, I think Trost will be a solid run blocker at RG and be ready to step up next year.

Winning this game by anything less than 21 points would be a disappointment.

This game should handily be in the bag by half time.

Never said you were not a real Rams fan. I’m assuming you are based on your posts (especially of late). My question was more around your being up to the challenge of being a Rams fan. Lots of ups and downs, woulda coulda shouldas, heartbreaking losses mixed in with exciting play. My recommendation is it’s going to be bumpy this year but enjoy the ride. The Rams have talent and a commitment to improve this year to make a run.

Criticizing the God Emperor St. McVay is heresy.

If we lose another game because of special teams, there's going to be a lot of heresy around here.

As there should be. The special teams nonsense is 100 per cent on McVay and 100 per cent unacceptable.

Well Let hope this is the Case and we put a beat down on Cards.

 

[jrry32]

Fair. But when did Tomlin fall off and start losing all those playoff games? Coaches get stale. McVay is beginning to become stale. He needs to adapt.

McVay adapted so effectively last year that a bunch of other teams tried to copy him this offseason by drafting an insane number of TEs.

And you seem to enjoy trolling folks on here and doing it endlessly. So tiresome. I tried defending you once, but I'm done. If you keep calling for McVay to be fired, I'm okay with you getting all the backlash that comes with it.

 

[gogoat1]

lets just get McVay fired because some fan on a board thinks they know more about football and special teams than the best coach the Rams have ever had................. NOPE.
Its idiotic.
BTW, Vermeil in 98 was the worst ever. Was not jack shit until Martz showed up. Martz had his won problems too but I never though DV was a good coach either.

Where in this post, or even this thread, did I call for McVay to be fired?

I'd put money down this is his last season as Rams head coach though, and no, I don't believe he'll be fired.

He's right. I want a super bowl win every year or else!
