We got smoked in all three games. Especially against Denver. I know you'll say these are scrubs my answer to that is both sides are putting equal scrubs in and out s rubs suck worse by a mile. Many of the 48/53 played and Ben ett has looked bad, our kicker missed 2 easy FGs. Very little positives outside of Evans our punter, Tomillson maybe Allen 1 game and Rivers has looked good.

Our DLine looked terrible pur OLB must be the worst in the league hardly any pressures from any of them same with our secondary.

The offense will be fine, but if we are constantly playing from behind we will be one dimensional and players could get hurt.

This will be a long season too many players on defense not retained or others who are similar not signed causing one side of the ball to be really short.

Lastly they know who is making the team why waste time giving so many who have zero chance it just 5akes reps away from others that will contribute.

I just can’t. I’m gonna take a break because people losing their shit over preseason is just beyond me.

I’ll be back for the season, but y’all can have the place to bitch, whine, moan and complain.

I want no part of that

I know you'll say these are scrubs my answer to that is both sides are putting their scrubs in as well and our scrubs suck worse by a mile. Many of the 48/53 played this preseason very little positives and Bennett has looked bad, our kicker missed 2 easy FGs. Very little positives outside of Evans our punter, Tomillson at CB maybe Davis Allen 1 game and Ronnie Rivers has looked good.

Our DLine and OLBs looked terrible. The OLB must be the worst in the league hardly any pressures from any of them same with our secondary in terms of coverage.

The offense will be fine, but if we are constantly playing from behind we will be one dimensional and players could get hurt.

This will be a long season too many players on defense not retained or others who are similar in stature not signed causing one side of the ball to be really shorthanded.

Lastly Les/Sean know who is making the team why waste time giving so many who have zero chance because all it does is just take reps away from others that will contribute.

TBF losing 41-0 is embarrassing, regardless of it being preseason or not.

when the Rams practiced against them for 2 days, 1s vs 1s we were the better team so that doesn't matter? I forgot AD wasn't available during both practices. It's preseason ffs

I don't care about preseason. Again, McVay loses a lot in preseason and the team generally plays terrible. Sure our depth is suspect at spots but you can say that about every team.

There were a couple times in the Dark Ages (2005-2016) when the Rams went 4-0 and undefeated in the preseason, only to flame out in the real games.

Tonight's game was a bunch of guys in Rams uniforms who won't even play at all in the regular season.

I'm a bit concerned about our starting defense... but I'm not concerned about the fate of our 4th stringers.

AD can only do so much. We'll have some good stretches with that DL here and there, in between long stretches of suck. Good stretches will be when the other team is thinking they need to pass.

Every injury is gonna hit us harder than the other teams. Our one hope is that we get a ridiculous run of health. Ridiculous in a good way. Then the pass game might keep us in things.

I know most of the guys last night won’t make the roster, probably not even the PS, but a couple will (or so I thought).

Are these guys in trouble?
Copeland
Rochell (looked lousy)
Tomlinson
McClendon

As for being a harbinger of things to come:
STs have been terrible.
Our new punter has a huge leg but needs to be properly trained how to use it.

Pass rush is nonexistent. I haven’t seen anyone play consistently well and pretty much every available guy has played at some point in preseason. Edge was the one, absolute issue I thought the Rams needed to nail down to have a respectable defense this year. Not seeing it.

Run defense? Good luck.

The offense better stay healthy because they are gonna need to score a ton of points. The good news is they should have the firepower to do that if the OL holds up.

We haven't looked good at all. Like I've been saying, first two weeks of the regular season will tell us a lot. Defensive front is a major concern. Offense should be fine, but the Rams should consider bringing in a vet at QB once teams start releasing players. Run stuffer up the middle, Brown has not steeped up like I thought he would. Veteran edge guy. Tampa lost their starting Center so maybe there's a deal to be made.
