I think the Rams finally broke me.
I'm not really all that optimistic about the immediate future for some reason.

An off season refresh and you will be back to the positive X we all know and respect. Your suppose to keep us over reactors evened out around here. Cheers man.

I'm with you. I'll always support the Rams through thick and thin. But for the first time in a long time, I don't think I can be convinced this team is about the enter better times. At least not any time soon.

2016 was a crap year for the Rams, but it was pretty good for me personally.. 2017 should be better, but we'll see how it all goes down. It has the potential to be really good if everything falls into place. Hopefully it's the same with the Rams.

Great news !!!
I'm glad to hear someone else had a great 2016 with more to come in 2017

Thanks.

Yeah, that's just how I feel right now.
What I just witnessed didn't even resemble a football team.
Lotta work cut out for the next guy.

Let's hope whoever is selecting Olinemen and wr's in the future has better talent evaluation abilities along with mistake admission and correction capabilities.

Let's stop kidding ourselves, we have a severe lack of talent in those areas that no amount of "coaching" is going to be able to overcome.

Those preseason predictions that forecast the Rams to have a 4 to 6 win season, and which were panned and laughed at on here, proved to be almost optimistic in the end.

We have a couple of good players on the offensive side and that is it.

I would expect three years before a playoff calibre Ram team can be assembled. If the new coach and GM can do it more rapidly then they should win executive and coach of the year awards.

 

[Dieter the Brock]

gotta look to teams like Oakland, Tennessee, and Tampa Bay for hope -- we just need two solid years with Goff and we can do some real damage with Ogletree, Donald, and Brockers in their prime
The future is bright for the Rams!!!!

2016 was a horrible year all around. It's finally over. I'm going to miss football. But we're onto bigger and better things. We're getting a new coaching staff and a 0-0 fresh start. I'm excited to see what happens in the days to come.

I attended my very first NFL game (I'm 39 years old!) And the Rams actually WON the game.

I FINALLY got my degree after a long and crazy road.

My kids are getting bigger and smarter and remain healthy. My parents are both still with me and relatively healthy as well.

I got a $2 per hour raise at work.

2016 wasn't all bad. Fisher is gone and it really cant get much worse. So Im excited for 2017.

Same. At least after 2011 you had the second overall pick to look forward to and a beginning of a rebuild. The Rams are going to struggle to fill holes and there a ton of question marks.

I absolutely agree.

This team is better than people believe. We'll be okay if they hire the right coach.

Yup, and I was one of them @4-5 wins....admittedly, it's tough to be a realist when it comes to this team and organization.

The right coach can have this team competing for a playoff spot.

I feel the same way . I see less than a handful of building blocks to work with , and what I've seen from Goff is not impressive. Very dissapointed in the effort from most of these guys .

 

[thirteen28]

Yes, at least now there is a chance for something better. We don't have to sit around wondering whether Fisher is going to finally "get it" with regard to offense, nor do we have to even care.

It's possible that the epic sh!t show that this season became was a blessing in disguise, because it at least gave us a closing out of the Fisher era in which 7 wins was the ceiling, and gets us a chance to get someone that can move this team beyond that. I would have hated it if Fisher had done just enough to stick around, but not enough to get us over the hump.

Nothing 7 long months without football can't cure.

Ay least we should have an eventful offseason

 

[Ellard80]

Last few weeks I haven't even really watched the 2nd half.. its been since the mid 90's that that's happened.

I hope they can give me some hope for optimism.. but right now they certainly appear to be the worst team in football.

 

[Legatron4]

The only solace I can take from this year is that I'm getting married to a wonderful lady. So I guess there's that lol

 

[den-the-coach]

This is what 16 games did to me this season.

We have some very good players to build around and a lot of cap space, for a new coach to go get some missing pieces this year.
