I watched zero football today. If I thought there was even the slightest chance of the Rams being competitive I would've watched the game somewhere. But right now watching this team pisses me off too much and I can't allow them to dictate my emotions and end up ruining my day. Especially my Sunday.
I'm glad to hear that your day turned positive! That's fantastic!
I don't even feel like venting, that's how apathetic I've become about this team
Years of losing will do that to you

Well, what was supposed to be a great birthday for me was ruined by another person... so, rather than do some pre-planned, wonderful things during the day, I sat at home watching it live, drinking copious amounts of alcohol (the high point of the day) and passing out around 8:30.
One of the worst birthdays I've ever had.
The Rams? Who knows... obviously, Fisher has no answers and is incapable of coming up with any.
The defense is now getting tired and, from the looks on their faces, resentful of the offense and the coaches that are game planning that offense (who could blame them?)
The only question now is... can they win another game before the season ends? The team is falling apart and Fisher's losing control.
I used to think maybe SF... but, listening to Bernie this morning, they have now tied the Rams for dead last in offensive production. He said there used to be a pretty wide gap between the Rams and SF but that gap is gone and they're both dead last... in other words, one team is improving (SF) and the other deteriorating (guess who).
Blaine Gabbert is better than anything we have at QB? Let that sink in...
So, not sure we can even beat them.
Will Fisher be fired? Who knows... predicting Kroenke is futile.
Bad day yesterday... not feeling too good today, either.

I should have stated that differently. I don't want to draft a guy with the plan that he is going to be the starter. I have no problem drafting a QB. Having a rookie QB come in and be the guy from day 1 certainly increases the odds he will be ok, but, the odds still aren't great. With FA (starting this year) the clock is ticking on keeping the core of the D together. I don't want to burn 2 to 3 years committing blindly to a rookie QB as the starter.
True confessions:
After they go down by 10 or more, does anyone start rooting for them to fail the rest of the game?
I'm sitting there, watching one bad series after another... penalties (that Austin one was a doozie)... Fisher making stupid challenges... and I start hoping for Arizona to really run up the score.
I kind of felt guilty... turned to my son and asked him if I was wrong.
He said, "no, I do that all the time with the Rad Sox".
I laughed. Then got another beer.

also saw receivers that don't fight for the ball. when I watch other games I see a lot of qbs throw up 50\50 balls and the offense wins most of the time
We wouldn't be committing blindly but we only have so many resources. Obviously, if the kid isn't ready, you go with Mannion or a vet FA (if there's a reasonably priced one). But I don't see an issue with going with a rookie starter. The Bucs are in the playoff hunt with Jameis despite a less talented roster.
Even if our rookie isn't as good as Jameis, if he's anywhere near serviceable, we can win with the ground game and defense. Look at the Seahawks and Russell Wilson as well. Ravens and Flacco. Ryan and the Falcons. Etc.
