Who are all you Goffaholics and Fisher haters going to blame it on? Fisher for not playing him earlier? The OL for not transforming into a legit force to be reckon with? Boras, a OC that may not make it past one full season at the position?

Most of you 'Goff should have been playing since week 1' guys really rub me the wrong way.To me there were obvious reasons Goff wasn't given the ball. Reasons that us fans are rightfully in the dark over and are in no position to criticize. None of us watch practice every day....'but the media said he was ready...get real...'

Doesn't it occur to any of you that maybe Fisher isn't the only coach who would have chosen to not play Goff? Can we acknowledge that maybe Snead screwed this one up or that like in Tennessee with Bud Adams Fisher was forced into taking a player he didn't believe was the answer for long term success in the league? Does it occur to anyone that Boras hasn't exactly proven himself as a respectable OC. Do we really want a rookie plugged into a system run by this guy, putting the kid into a position to fail, creating irreversible damage to the psyche affecting the long run of young JG's career? Rookies are fragile. Confidence is so importiant in this league.

I just think it's hacky to bitch and moan over the HC of your favorite team and not hold any of the talent accountable for their poor performance.

If you hate Fisher so bad, just stop being a fan of the team. He's our coach. We should be rooting for the man and supporting all the difficult decisions he's had to make.

With all of my heart I can honesty pound my chest and scream Let's go Gof! I'm rooting for the kid so much

I hope he shocks the world and carries this team to the dreaded 7 seed. Of course we would have been 12-4 if Goff started since day one. We obviously would have beaten DET(a game were Case undeniably played lights out), Buffalo, NYG, Carolina and SF.

Personally i'm looking forward to watching KB18 finish to year with 1200 yards and 8 tds. Watching Cooper become a major player. Seeing Tavon get balls fired at his chest 2 yards off the line of scrimmage allowing him to get into open space and burning his shoes off. Seeing Brian Quick put up a 200 yard game at Seattle leading the team to Victory. Witnessing Lance Kendricks transfrom into a top 5 pass catching TE. And finally reading about the FA WRs added to the lineup because that want to play playoff caliber football with the phenom Goff in beautiful LA.

This was a better post than the 1st one in the thread!
Okay. I guess I should start censoring myself because clearly reading alternative opinions is too much to handle for some of you.

Sorry if it blows my mind the pessimism that's been going on throughout the season. I just can't relate to it, sorry. I've got real things in my life to bitch and moan about, the Rams are something I can be blindly optimistic about without feeling like a pathetic human being. The modern NFL allows teams to go from zeroes to heroes and I believe Rams can be the next '10-current Seattle Seacocks.

I don't think anyone expects Goff to take us to the Super Bowl this year. Even the playoffs for that matter.
Goff needs experience and time to grow. Which is very limited when on the bench. He needs to play and take his lumps on the field. I'd rather do that this season and start out next season with plenty of game experiance. He's a very smart, competative and talented QB. Playing him now should help his growth going into next season

If you're suggesting I get off on recreational outrage you couldn't further from the truth. I despise those types.. I'm not the one with over 20 posts bitching and moaning about Jeff Fisher and Case Keenum despite the two of them setting us up for finishing with our best record since 2006 and winning games vs two divisional rivals. Anyone who believes Rams beat both AZ and SEA with Goff at QB is downright crazy.

They also said that about Ryan Leif, Akili Smth, Joey Harrington, Ryan Tannehill, Blake Bortles,David Carr, Tim Couch Jamarcus Russell and others in Goff's position.

I can't agree with everything in that post but the blame game irritates me to no end, so carry on man.


I'm going to enjoy the games too and I look forward to this week just like I did last week.

Later.....

And Marcus Mariota, Jameis Winston, Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck, Cam Newton, Matt Ryan, Be Roethlisberger etc
Whats the point?
