Jamon Brown

We saved only a few hundred thousand dollars by releasing him, so we didn't save much and we didn't need that little cap room this year anyway. IMO the team did him a favor by letting him go now so he could play somewhere this year and sign somewhere as a FA next year.

Rams Trivia.... Ruht Roh - It’s BACK!!!

Well... The correct answer was the San Francisco Forty Whiners. The following members got it right.
Unfortunately, the Browns were the top vote getter. But it was against the Whiners in 1957 that this long held record was tallied.

Stay tuned for another trivia question that will be posted later this week.

Unplug the Doug! (Pederson)

Coming back from an acl is tough, sometimes you don’t get back til the year after. But I think a lot of people bought into the Wentz hype, he just looks the part. Big, strong, fast, big arm, compared to Goff, who’s slow, slender and has kind of a goofy vibe. I think Goff might be a better thrower, maybe because he can’t just take off and run like Wentz, and now after being with nfl trainers he has gotten stronger, his arm has gotten better.

I don't see it. Goff is a decent athlete, probably above average for QB. He doesn't run as much as others, because his ability to navigate the pocket with subtle movement is uncanny. He doesn't bail as quickly as some of the other guys.

Awesome Goff Deep Ball article

"His footwork. Meaning his feet and hips are so fluid it gives him both great touch and zip. His mechanics are excellent, the coaching staff obviously drills him on that heavily. Even under pressure he has great delivery. That makes a big difference when a ball is travelling a long way in the air. "

Les Baker got that right....that was one thing that he had in college (his feeet), and I was hopeing that would transfer to under center....and it has in spades. Shotgun is very, very bad on 1st down.

League imposes more than $43,000 in fines on Aaron Donald, Justin Britt

While I agree that the refs screwed this up for Aaron Donald and could have prevented all this from happening, the stats don't bear out that the Rams are being picked on penalty-wise more than the other teams.

The Rams are tied for 23d with the Eagles and Bengals with 55 penalties called against them. Interestingly enough, the Chiefs get penalized more than any other team with 84 penalties called against them. The Titans have the least amount with 41 and of course the Patriots are 31st with 47.

The Chiefs have 12 offensive holding penalties, while the Rams have 6. The Chiefs also lead the league with 14 defensive holding calls. The Rams are tied for second with 6 roughing the passer penalties.

I said this in another thread no one is complaining really that the refs are over penelizing the Rams so much as

1. Non calls of blatent offensive holding up to and including literal headlocks in front of refs not being called.

2. The peneltys that are called seem way more trivial then what was overlooked by the oppenant.

3. Just plain stupid calls like the fumble/incomplete pass that led to Donald's issue.

So yes it can appear that the refs have issue and need to correct and do their jobs

Post Rating Icons

To all -

You may have noticed the icons have changed in the post ratings bar.

412C5B09-75AB-4081-969D-B731FD49B658.jpeg


Other than color, we added a tad more space around them. Just a little. This is intended to help the fat finger hits we get from time to time.

Other than that, the icon descriptions remain unchanged.

We have also added a “caution” button for the moderators. This button is only visible to moderators, but you will see an alert any time it is used. This is intended to help guide threads “off the edge” if tensions rise. Consider it a nudge, as opposed to issuing a warning. We think this may be helpful in the Game Day Threads.

Cheers!

EDIT; “Ouch” is now a hospital symbol

Rams O-Line is the Best and It's Not Close

I'm really proud of our OL and how well they're playing. They're certainly an elite (top 5) line in the league which is what matters.

But there are a few teams in their class. That PFF recognition the Steelers' OL is getting, for example, is accurate too as they are straight ballin the F out right now not only in pressures but in that downhill run game they have going. Indy's OL has been improving seemingly week to week.

But it's crazy how quickly this line has ascended. That doesn't happen without a staff and GM on the same page, and the OL coach being at the top of his field.

Marcus Mariota Contract Value

Marcus Mariota has been the skewered by the criticism police.

Not every QB is going to be in the Aaron Rodgers level, and not every QB is gonna magically make a team a SB contender. That's not reality. You need more.

Marcus has been hurt this year, has no sense of a running game, and his WRs are pretty meh (except it looks like Corey Davis is finally coming around).

He's also in a 1st year HC. Let them settle before judging them. This is the part for the NFL I can't stand. No patience at all. #criticismpolice.

Week 10 Media Fallout

That moron acts like some federal government subsidy program put Todd Gurley inside the five yard line.

:rant:“The man earned his way down there, dweeb. Then he cashed the check!!”

Haha. It's like they don't watch any of his other runs preceding the tds. Just crazy the way nfl media look at different positions. So what he does isn't important because he's not getting hit in the backfield every time he touched the ball? Nobody seems to care that Brady had 5 seconds to make a throw his whole career. He's the best (this is what they say, not me).

Jerks.
