Keenum to start

[wmc540]

Are we sure about the source? Does Jeff Fisher dislike Jim Thomas that much that he tells Dani first. I've never seen something like that before.

 

[RamzFanz]

YES! PEW PEW PEW!

How long have you been waiting to use that?

Given the options, who would you be more willing to speak to?

9 weeks.

All he has to do is hit open receivers and hand off to Gurley and Tavon. The defense will take care of the rest. I think we're about to see how bad Foles really was.

 

[RamBall]

Fisher announced it in his press conference, Dani was able to tweet it before JT could find his phone.

 

[rdlkgliders]

Well your team is playing poorly and looks to be in it for the 16 reg season games and no more. Why not assess what you have on the bench? Whatever the reason Foles has regressed and Mannion is nowhere near ready. Start Case and see what we have.
Another disappointing season! At least my wife and aon will have me for Sundays again. If thats good news

You beat me to that one. Hahahahahhahahaha

Stop reading my mind.

I don't know. Remove his glasses and dye in some blonde highlights, he might not be too bad.

Dani has far better access than JT.

Young girl in her twenties is able to send out a tweet faster than a 50+ man?
Shocker right there...

If they plan on making the playoffs it was a move that had to be made. Like I said yesterday it was smart for Fisher to not comment on it in the media. He did the same thing last year when moving from Davis to Hill.

Quite frankly, I believed and believe that Austin Davis should have gotten more of a shot this year. First year starting and he was being graded as if he were an experienced veteran starter. Made no sense to me.

 

[RamzFanz]

9 weeks.

So you cursed us?

 

[iamme33]

Thank you!!!!! Hopefully he can do better. We can hope.

can't be worse

He was graded in TC and preseason and it was not good. At all. Like, really bad.

 

[HometownBoy]

Thank God, Keenum literally cannot be worse unless he throws INTs every drive and takes sacks every drive when he isn't. Foles simply was one of the worst QBs to don this jersey Sunday.

 

[BriansRams]

And that ladies and gents is why you don't extend a player without watching him play for your team. Good job hosing the Rams Foles.

No matter how good or bad Keenum plays, this change HAD to be made. The general consensus is that Keenum can in no way do any worse than Foles. And we'll get to see for real if he can do a lot better than Foles. This will be interesting.

JT will soon be using Dani as his "sources say."

 

[Ky Ram]

Foles hasn't been good, but I'm not sure why Cigs is getting a pass. Not like our offense has been anywhere near adequate and that ain't all on the QB.
Got my fingers crossed Keenum can hand the ball off and make a five yard throw.

IMO, he has the same fatal flaw that Foles has. Throw it up for grabs and hope the receiver makes a play -- even if it's into double coverage while throwing off of their back foot and running away from rushers. In fact, I'm willing to bet that it was the pass to Quick in the Bears game (double coverage, single high safety) that compelled Fisher to make this move. Foles really had no business throwing that ball.

 

[RamzFanz]

My biggest regret in this decision is it's 1/2 a game late to perhaps save the season.

 

[RedRam]

Good. Unfortunately, Foles hasn't gotten the job (winning) done. Right now, Foles does not give the Rams the best chance to win. We'll at least now find out if Keenum does or not.

 

[RamsFan14]

It's the right decision, although I hate the backlash Foles' getting from the fans. Dude was hit WAY too much this year and you see it in his play. Foles is a mess mechanics wise, no doubt about it and not many can defend his play as of late. But I don't believe he's as bad as he's played the last few weeks, he was nothing like this early on. Sad situation imo... PROTECT KEENUM OR WE'LL SEE THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO HIM!!! Then again, our OL isn't very good, and Keenum will have 2 seconds to throw before getting hit consistently.
