Kinda paints a picture, doesn't it? Average of 8.28 yards to go on 3rd down (!) and a total of 17 rushing attempts (not yards, read it wrong) on 3rd down. We're losing 1st and 2nd down, and because of that we're hamstrung on 3rd. This is a bad, bad offense.

I can, but just been given some work to do, so will be 4 hours or so.
Well we survived the worst 5-year run of football the NFL has ever seen... we can survive the worst 3rd-down offense the NFL has ever seen. Somehow.

Combination of things.
-Pressure on Foles is pretty constant.
-Foles doesn't read the field well even when there is time.
-When Foles does have to make a tough throw, not uncommon for him to miss.
-WR's that can't break defenders down. Almost takes a complete defensive breakdown to get an easy pitch and catch.
-Then factor in all the terrible drops and fumbles.
Just not good

He may have had the great attitude they were looking for, and he may have the leader they were looking for.
But they never ever should have given him an extended contract before seeing him play in just one NFL game.
I don't know if anyone wants to trade even a nickel for Colin Kaepernick but I'd trade a Nick for him without blinking.

Eh. 2009 was LITERALLY Steven Jackson and nothing else. We averaged 11.3 ppg. At least we have Tavon.
Look at me, I'm making fucking excuses without even trying :headexplosion:
lets not forget penalties that always either put the Rams in a 3rd and long situation( or should I say 3rd and impossible) or negate a 1st down gained on previous play.
Wonder what the stats are on that gem
Great (if sad) stuff - the Rams as a team face the 13th-longest down-to-go yardage of any team in the past 21 years. Christ, no wonder we don't convert.
