Foles vs Keenum!

[SoCalRam78]

To chalk it up simply as Fisher needing a better OC is not doing enough in my opinion to discredit Fisher and crew.

Philly and Vikings not only have the better OC, they're better in the trenches, better defensively, and much more focused and disciplined than whatever Jeff Fisher was doing here.

Fisher though was better in having his teams commit 15 yard person foul penalties or having his QBs killed by Gregg Robinson.

(on a side note, nothing these two guys did this weekend makes me not want to do the Goff trade again)

I have a hard time rooting for the Minnesota Vikings franchise after all the crap I had to put up with through the 70’s and I’m not a big fan of Philadelphia either so for me the NFC Championship game blows chunks.

I just want, who ever Wins the NFC, to Destroy the Pats in the SB!! "IF" the Pats get past the Jags!!!!

Since you asked: no, not really. Would I rather have any of those guys over Goff? Nope.

IF they had gone on to sign with some offensively-impaired team like the Rams had been for the last dozen or so years and STILL lit it up, then maybe I'd be a little ticked.

Sorry, dude - I can't muster the angst here.

Do you think the Vikings would be in the same position with Bradford? I do. That’s why I have hard time praising Keenum. I think you can insert literally any QB into the lineup, and they’ll produce the same way. Maybe it’s the media I’m angry at. But 5 years from now, Keenum will barely be remembered when he’s on his 5th team as a backup.

I hate the cheatiots and the viqueens more than the other 2 teams... so my wish would be for Philly and Jax to play in the Super Bowl.

But if I can't have that... I'd wish that Minnesota and Jax get there. That would mean that the 2 starting QBs in the Super Bowl would both be from the American Athletic Conference... you know... the Conference that UCF plays in... the ones who were hosed out of a chance to play in the college playoffs because they're not in a "Power" Conference. Case played for Houston and Blake played for UCF of course.

Yeah, but....why be angry at all?!?

The Rams' offensive scheme was downright dreadful while those guys were here - they did what they could with what they were given (shaky OL, sub-par WR corps, and a playbook devoid of innovation and/or imagination).

I'd rather appreciate the fact that the dumpster fire offense is long gone than begrudge those former players for experiencing success elsewhere.

I would appreciate it more if Keenum wasn’t an average QB. I knew Goff would be good. His accuracy, touch, makes every throw, pocket presence. It was all there as a rookie. Keenum is just playing backyard football. Which is cool and all. But it’s the same reason I can’t stand Russell Wilson. A lot of it is luck and just heaving moon balls. It makes me angry as fan to watch that and then hear the media suck him off for it.

I have to disagree with that. I think that at this point in their careers Keenum is the better player. Had Captain Injury been playing all these year, it could have been a different story, but right now, Keenum is the one reading defenses and playing at the top of his game.

New England is gonna roll Jacksonville and be in the SB.
I can’t take it.

With a positive attitude like that I guess not.

 

[RAMBUSH]

no fukking way!

Lol. Now that made me chuckle.

C’mon man. Even a blind man can see the difference in the level of talent.

Meh... that's cool that people that we gave up on are doing great elsewhere...? I'd rather a Rams current QB be competing for a Superbowl

Tom Brady's going to get destroyed by that Jacksonville defense next week.

New England is gonna roll Jacksonville and be in the SB.

I'm not that sure... who was the head coach of the NYG when they beat the undefeated NE in that super bowl?
Sure, Coughlin is'n the Head Coach... but he laid down the blue print for beating them which isn't really rocket science (pressure the hell out of Brady).
And... JAX has the manpower to bring that heat (2nd in the league with 55 sacks).
I have this feeling that Brady will be under siege all day and might... just might... end up on the losing end of the stick.

Really, this would be a great movie. The Fall of Jeff Fisher and the 2016 Rams, with three disparaged QB's in the playoffs in 2017. There has never been a story like that in the NFL.

Fish is probably talking to a reporter right now and taking credit for Foles and Keenum.

Thanks Jeff... for wasting at least 3 years of my fandom.
