Lot's to process. Not a good fake punt call or execution. Offensive line looks bad. It can't just be Case Keenum's limitation. Defense without 3/4 of their line did ok but still gave away too many easy yards. Oh the pick six!

I'm ready for Goff!

 

[shovelpass]

No, no, it's ok. This is our trend for the regular season. We'll go 3-1 each quarter, dropping the first game each time. No need to be alarmed.

Wanna hear an NFL joke?

Keenum is Rams starting QB. Because he doesn't turn it over.

If you think he played badly today you have no idea what you are seeing.

Case Keenum has 4td, 5int and 6to for the season. He's only thrown a td pass in 2 of 5 games.
It's pathetic that we roll him out there. Heck play Mannion if Goff isn't "ready".
I think the offense scheme actually looks good but the qb is way too limited

 

[jrry32]

I see a lot of hate for Boras. I think he is the best OC we have had under Fisher - that is not saying much, I know - and he is severely limited by Keenum. Plus he is new to being OC and still learning his craft. I'd actually stick with Boras. I think he could work out. Bailing on him would not only mess with continuity, but also be pre-mature IMO.

I'm not sure what role he has in the passing game. If it's Groh designing the passing game, I think Groh is the better coordinator. Because the running game schemes and concepts have not been inspiring. But the passing game schemes and concepts have been incredible.

Fisher showed what he thinks of case with that fake punt. His actions say he doesn't believe case can lead the Rams down the field to score a td with 2 mins left in the clock and no timeouts.

Ahhh case. You've got the heart but you don't have the tools and that makes you make dumb decisions because you can't make a throw a nfl qb should be able to make.

Alex Barron , Jason Smith , and #73 . Throw them all in a hat and you know the rest .

Three of four D lineman out.
Hard to win when the best unit is down to practice squad guys.
Johnson injury looked bad on a cheap clip too.
Keenum played well. One bad pass. Grob has regressed and is routinely beaten by a drum.
4 trips inside Buffalos 20, 3 FGs....game was there to be won.
Oh well.
Gonna lose some we could have won too. Next two weeks probably determine the season.
Need our D lineman back.

Any QB with that kind of red zone efficiency did not play well. He also missed wide open WRs (yet again...) and committed his turnover at the worst, most deflating time. Keenum needs to sit.

 

[Corbin]

THAT WAS SOME 7-9 BULLSHIT RIGHT THERE!

 

[NJRamsFan]

And to think we almost overcame 3 of our starting defensive linemen (the best part of our team) being ruled out last minute....matter of fact we would have if Keenum and fishy could get out of their own way....this def is no joke

That was a humbling game. All of my friends have been asking "how about those rams?" And I've told them each time that I wouldn't get my hopes up. I don't care how many times we beat the seahawks or the Cardinals. It's THESE games that we piss away every time that prevent us from getting to the playoffs. A 3-1 start is nice but the reality is that we've been 3-2 a couple of times. It's just gonna lead to 7-9

This sounds like 2013. Fisher won't let them play the hurry up offense because he doesn't want quick 3 and outs. This after a game where there were endless quick 3 and outs because drich was running into the back of the oline, and the Rams only moved the ball when they went to the hurry up mode.

[RAMpage28]

Such a disappointment because it was such a winnable game. Just a few moments and a few bad decisions and it turns into a loss.

The running concepts are bad.

The passing game looks pretty decent, but that pick six was such an awful throw by Case.

Case had an alright game at best. He shouldn't be taking 11 yard sacks though.

The offensive line needs to be retooled or coached differently. Probably a bit of both, and I'm not just talking about coaching in technique, I'm talking about assignments as well. Why are there plays where they just leave the edge free?

Defense played alright. Bad in the first half, but good in the later half, for the most part. Not having 3/4 of the starting line didn't help. Hope Tru is OK.

This team needed this win. They can still go places, but lack some key pieces to really be a threat.

 

[Ram_Rally]

And yes, keenums pick 6 was definitely the deciding factor in this one

 

[-X-]

The only thing I have to vent about is that RIDICULOUS series of events that took place at the end of the game. Kicking a field goal? Meh. I guess I can get over it, because a TD on the ensuing drive was game over. But that fake punt EPIC BULLSHIT? Don't try to outsmart everyone in a game where the defense is bringing the pain in the 2nd half. Kick that shit the hell to the other side of the field and let'm eat. THEN use some trickery on offense if you have to.

Dammit that was infuriating.

 

[Ellard80]

This is a joke right?

Missed Quick for a touchdown and threw a pick six... missed quick wide open another time on 3rd down and threw a 2 yard pass.

I think the coaching was worse than keenum.. but keenum did not play well today.

 

[RAMpage28]

Oh, and Fisher, what the fuck was that fake punt? What are you doing?

Agree.But do you notice how it seems like we get super conservative at the goal line?I still believe
Fisher is responsible for that.maybe limiting what Boras can call in those situations.Thoughts?
