That was the worst game since the opener against the Whiners in 2016 when AD got ejected. Hopefully bye week is enough time to get VM and OBJ completely synced and they can figure the defense out by either changing things up coaching or player wise. Either way, that was embarrassing.

The bottom of our roster is afraid to step up.
Williams/Rochel/Long cannot make a play.
It amazes me that guys in the middle zone are standing right next to a guy but can't break up a pass. I'm looking at Rapp/Reeder/Jones.
Van Jefferson is not ready to start (for those that thought he was ready to replace Woods this year). He can't catch shit.
Same with Higbee. He regressed 4 years in this game with those drops.
This is what happens when you depend of UDFAs and late round picks to be core starters. Teams are going to avoid our stars and target them.

Ramsey played good.. von played well....
our defensive strategy against the 49ners needs a massive overhaul.
on 3rd down - put Ramsey on Deebo... double team kittle...
can let the same two guys keep beating us.

Absolute dogshit performance across all 3 phases tonight.
Still not losing hope though, shit games like this is a good sink or swim opportunity to iron out issues, let’s see if McVay is aware enough to realize he is his own worst enemy rn with those impatient tendencies. Ball control offenses are the best way to neutralize this team.

We traded a lot for Stafford. He needs to figure his shit out and elevate his game back to where it was. Team as a whole was bad tonight. But Stafford cannot keep putting up these stinkers. And Raheem Morris needs to wake the fuck up and start using our elite #1 CB to stop the opposing team's best WR when he's tearing us up. Inexcusable incompetence.

He has had those impatient tendencies since 2017. He can’t learn that lesson apparently
Bye! Root for another team then. This team is far from done and you're giving up too quick.
Absolutely a fucking disgrace. McVay needs to STFU and stop saying he needs to do better and actually DO BETTER. Start running the goddamn ball. Damn! This loss sucks.

It's not just them, this team just has no quality depth and isn't very good.
Williams/Rochelle/Long have all been shit this year. Williams absolutely horrible and is making $5M.
Fuller is invisible every single game. Looks like a 6th rounder this year.
Rapp is arguably the most inconsistent player on this roster. Great play then gets beat bad. Rinse, repeat.
Reeder is total garbage and gets picked on every game.
We have no Special Teams presence. Kickoff and punt coverage teams have to be the worst in the NFL.

Where are the McVay fan-boys now? Still ready to flame me for saying he's nothing special? We have been watching the same BS from McVay for several years now. 10 points scored?! What a disaster for an offense with this many weapons. He is a good coach, Maybe even a great one. But he can't win a physical contest. Of course, you need to be able to do that in order to win a Super Bowl. So McVay's flaw is literally fatal, and McVay, for all his other strengths, is rendered useless. A real life Achilles Heelm if you will. Could we find a "better coach" on the open market? Perhaps not. But I bet we could definitely find a coach that, despite all of his faults, could actually find a way to win playoff-style football...
Some very questionable play calls in this one. Fake FG? The predictable TE screen? Passing on 80% of your downs? Try again, boy genius. Maybe after years of "not doing a good enough job to put players in a position to succeed", you'd learn. Or get fired. I don't think McVay's leash is as long as many might think if the Rams keep losing to any physical team the same way. Kronke is spending good money on this club and stadium. McVay convinced him "if only I had Stafford". "If we could just get Von Miller". Sooner or later, Kronker will want answers.
Van Jefferson is a JAG. The loss of Woods is going to be astronomical in the passing game, let alone in the running game where he was a great blocker and invaluable at pre-snap motion. Hopefully, OBJ, once he gets up to speed, can replace some of what Woods brings. But he is no Woods. And is a much more finesse player. Which leads me to...
The Rams have 3 skill players players on offense that are truly capable of excelling in a physical contest. Kupp, Akers, and Woods. Two of those are out for the year. You tell me where that leaves the Rams' Super Bowl aspirations. I think Michel could also be decent. But'll never see the field before a game is already out of reach, because McVay is too soft to go with his running style.
Morris is brutal. He'll be gone next year. I am not sure I agree with the "just put Ramsey on Samuel!!!" crowd, though. If he did that, and they completed a pass to Kittle, then the narrative would be "how can you not just put Ramsey on Kittle?!". Ramsey is our only defensive back capable of stopping a physical player. The 49ers have lots of those. Kittle. Samuel. Aiyuk. We were toast from the get-go. We'll continue to be toast any time we face a team with big, physical weapons.
Hekker is no longer a weapon. He now has as many poor kicks as he does good ones. He's not bad, per se. But it's time to move on. Better a year early than late. He's no longer an asset.
Stafford has been very underwhelming. It's definitely a cause for concern, especially as his reputation is to shrink in big games. But I am not going to push the panic button yet. Our last two losses - in which Stafford played poorly, no doubt - were against very physical teams. I think the problem is more so McVay's crappy, finesse system more so than it is the QB playing in it. The sample size is just to large at this point.
So many drops today. Higbee was poor.
The poor depth on this team is showing on D.
I could keep going... but I'm now vented out...
