I wanted an attempt there too. Our D was starting to roll at that point. I wouldn't call it a coaching blunder, it was a tough decision.
I thought the D played well enough to win except for the dropped INT. Time to move on from Cook and Kendrick, neither of them have good hands and Foles isn't going to allways lay in the perfect pass. I don't blame the OC as Fisher demands a very conservative offensive game plan. Sad when you can score more than 12 points.

Same here -- visited his Calistoga tasting room 2 years ago. Bought about 3 bottles, including his 'XXXIV' (homage to his '99 Rams team).
As to yesterday's game: It's still a head-scratcher why Quick isn't playing. That aside, not sure why we haven't seen steady doses of Steddy B and Givens. Just seems like Foles is only targeting Britt and the TE's in the passing game.
And Kendricks -- you gotta make that catch.

@jrry32 I think we are now at that magical place where we are as close to agreeing as possible.
In your reply you talk of Bailey making catches without separation and in my OP I stated he doesn't get used as much as we would all like because of said comment.
I think the rest is a coach and QB thing as far as QB's some do and some don't throw into tight coverage.
Have a good day as I said before I enjoy your takes. We are mostly a bunch of frustrated Ram Fans trying to figure out why we are where we are,
For me it's not the 1-2 as much as how we got there that eats me.

This isn't really a vent...this is more of this is how I feel about this team and have been trending this way for about a year.
Jeff Fisher really is stuck in the past offensively. This offensive system is flat terrible for todays NFL. Our "weapons" are close to being as bad as they were before Fisher was here as well. Tavon Austin and our RBs are all we really have. Kenny Britt is a 3rd receiver at best. Jared Cook is the most unreliable target on the team...you think he's going to be great and lets you down. Stedman Bailey can't get on the field, so that has to mean something.
Every interview I hear from Fisher he preaches about "the process"...and highlights the philosophy of keeping the game close so they can run the ball. Why can't we adopt the philosophy of blowing out an opponent so we can run the ball? Why do we have the mindset that we have to barely overcome our opponent every week?

Yep, and those changes have equaled the same boring offense and far too many stupid penalties.

This is only a guess, but I would think the reason so many OC's refused to interview for the Rams gig is because they know Fisher will tie their hands and make them play the old school kind of boring offense that he wants.

Yep, consider me in the group of pitch forks and torches - done with fisher, just done. The offensive line, the offensive philosophy...the draft picks on the offensive side of having a glaring difference than the defensive ones.
I'm just really tired of an having an offensively inept team - and that is the definition of the Rams for almost a decade now.

You know, this fucking defense is built to play with leads! Get a fast start and pin ears back.....
And Fishhead wants close ass games so we can rely on the run... Know what that tells me? Fisher is a gutless wonder.
Built an offense that can get you a fast strike lead and let the D do what it does best. Pass rush and take the opponents run game away before they get a chance to get going.
GreenBay would have a dynasty with this D.
So would many offenses out there .
Not the fucking Rams tho. Stuck with old man offense under Fishet who doesn't have the balls, brains, knowledge or willingness to accept modern Os have passed him by and he should turn the reins over to someone who does.
Same old shit in offense. Different wrappings, same ugly rotten center.
And you know what Snead? Fuck you too. You think teams don't need game changes at the WR position? They fucking do. They don't have to be #1s, but they damn we'll be able to step up in the clutch or be able to get themselves open without a million fucking play fakes.
Get a real fucking WR smartass.
Okay: that's my last rant for this game.
