Match ups.

The Rams match up very well with our division. They all have big, physical db's and who were the receivers on our team that did well against them? Amendola and Givens. Speed and route running is what will help us out...that's why that's what we drafted.

Also, we now have the tools on offense that can help US put away games we should/could win.

Lions, 49ers (tie), Dolphins are three games we could have won if we had that extra "sizzle" on offense.

That would have put us at 10-6 with a wild card spot.

4-1-1 in the division last year. Could have easily been 5-1. Super Bowl loser slump for the whiners. Wilson sophomore slump. Pickson Palmer.

Our 2nd year guys should develop. SAME OFFENSE FOR SAMMY. Tavon mothalover Austin. Top 5 D.

RAMS RULE.

Sam proves to the NFL he is an elite qb, our defense makes top 5 status, Wilson will hit a sophmore slump and Kaeperdick gets laid out by Tree and ends up finishing the year on injured reserve. And at this point, Fuck Arizona... :razzed:

Because the Rams are bringing their brand of college football to the NFL and it's not the read option. Rather, its a wide open passing game lead by an elite talent, throwing to elite talent. It a defense built on solid defensive principles loaded with fast, nasty football players.

I can't wait to experience it.

Because we have the best coaching and NOW those coaches and FO have assembled enough talent to get er dun

Fisher is the perfect coach IMO, fiery enough yet quietly confident.
His team will reflect his demeanor ,the other three coaches (in this division) rely too much upon emotion,which wears the soul out.

Because we have an elite top 3 defense IMO Fisher used to battle the ravens for #1 defense in the NFL back before his old owner went control freak cheap ass. When Fisher runs a d the way he knows how its dominating. As well if our receivers and Bradford get on the same page our offense will be deadly.

Because Bradford is the best QB in the division but has been held back in recent years by lack of talent. He's starting to get that talent. Added to the Seachickens and Whiners not sneaking up on anyone, we'll run the division, get a few wins, and finish on top.

Because the Rams have an abundance of the one thing you dont need to coach.....Speed.

Our speed will change games and our dome speed will be overwhelming.

This is why:

Our defense will not allow other teams to score many points... and our offense will make big, explosive plays and score alot of points.

This team can be really scary, even though we're very young. Playoffs are finally a real goal.

Fisher and Snead, two guys with talent that work together, 2nd draft in a row that looks ++, and this last that was exceptional with the talking heads view of the Talent available. We now have weapons for Sam, new & old (somewhat), our D shines and will only get better as offense improves, and it will. This is the year SB stands out. And Pead & Quick show why they were high draft choices...

THIS TRAIN IS BOUND FOR GLORY!

The Rams will win the NFC west simply because they are the best team in the division. The D is already top notch and will only improve. Once the O puts some points up the D will be suffocating QBs and the new sack record will belong to the Rams D. Our return game should improve greatly and coverage will only get better with the added athleticism. Also the Rams have the best coaching staff in the division and possibly the NFL.


GO RAMS!!!

Add the Bears to this list too. We hung with them for three quarters.

Better special teams (returns), better on O, potentially much more explosive, better on D. We're going to surprise a lot of folks without needing trick plays to do it.

There are many reasons to believe we'll own the division again this year. Winning the division is just the next step in our progression. Here are some of the reasons I expect it to be so...

Our coaching staff is the shit. If I was asked to start a franchise and was told that I could have any coach I wanted ... I would pick Fisher. He has assembled a staff of experienced qualified coaches who can get maximum production out of their players. The players really believe in them from top to bottom,,, that is easy to see and hear. Don't forget that we will no longer be missing a D coordinator this year. Strong proven leadership and respect my Brethren... it has to start there, and we now have more of it than I think I have ever seen on the Rams.

Our talent level has increased dramatically. Sure there will be some silly mistakes due to youth, but youth is more durable and talent usually finds a way to shine. I now feel like we will finally be able to enforce our will and dictate the game both defensively AND offensively. Our defense was already a force, but with the additions we've added... Holy Shit. And the offense,,, The Offense will now actually be able to stress defenses in multiple ways (that hasn't been the case for a long time)... I see things opening up big time for Sam and Co.

Think about our special teams now. We already have the kicker with the biggest leg in the game. Now we have some return weapons that I can guarantee will add points on the board in a big way too.

It's OUR time,,, and as our GM would tell ya, "We ain't Fucking Scared".

1. We have a team of nasty football players with attitude and heart

2. Our coaching staff is the league's best

3. Our defense is beast, our special teams have legs, and our offense has speed

3a. Cook and Austin change everything

4. Their QB's run, our QB runs an offense

5. Pete Carroll teams implode when things don't go well

The Rams will win the duvison because they have the BEST quarter back in the divison.

Bradford is already a NFL offensive rookie of the year and is coming off his best season as a pro.

Wilson and Kaperdink will both have sophomore slumps and struggle greatly in streaches.

And our defense (yeah I said OUR) is going to shut down teams all year long.

Anything short of ten wins from this team will be a disapointment.

Because we're good enough, smart enough ... and doggone it people will hate us when they see what we do to their team.

Speed. Speed, speed, speed. This team is built to exploit mismatches. Big physical corners will look silly trying to press and cover Austin and Givens. Quick, Pettis and Cook will make smaller DBs wanna call in sick. Tree and any safety not named Dahl will finally complete what was already a nasty defense and make wilson and megamind throw picks from the pocket. Game on hookers... Game ON!!!!!

Oh, and we have a kicker named Legatron. Nuff said.
