Here’s what the Rams have accomplished:

Winning %: .598 (6th/tied)
Playoff Appearances: 3 (4th/tied)
Playoff Wins: 7 (2nd)
Conference Titles: 2 (2nd)

And, of course, the Rams are one of only 4 teams with a championship in the past 5 years.

Does this record make Snead, McVay and Co. beyond criticism?

Of course not.

But a bit of faith, patience and deference is in order, no?

NO!!!! They've proved they can do it, so do it every year!!! I mean, how hard can it really be?

Seriously. Until this season, the Rams had lost consecutive games 5 times the previous 5 years. 2 G in 2018. 3 G in 2019 & 2 G in 2019. 2 G in 2020. And 3 G in 2021. In two of those years, they made the Superbowl. That's pretty consistent IMHO.

And that stat includes last season’s 5-12 injury disaster. If you look at 2017- 2021 Rams were pretty much the best team in football record wise at 55-26, 7-3 post season, 2 NFC championships and a Super Bowl win

Yup. If you can do it once, you can do it all the time. I pay good money to watch the Rams!!! I invest in Rams gear and tickets and NFLTicket and beer and whine.......and I spend hours on the internet discussing Rams issues......did I mention whine?

So, if my sources tell me that Aaron Donald is being traded to the 49ers for Trey Lance and, as part of the deal, due to a heretofore unpublished clause in Donald’s contract, the team must also change its name to the Malibu Movie Stars, how many clicks would I get by posting the story?

Well, lies spread faster than truth, so you'd get a decent number of clicks.

But to really jack up the number of clicks, it's important to relay the misinformation with a tone of outrage. Objective, detached description just won't do. You need to add sneering contempt and judgmentalism. And lots of exclamation points!!!!

And only 1 team has bragging rights over us. That would be last years Super Bowl winner. The other 30 teams can't compete.

Our leadership knows what a winner looks like. It is going to be fun watching Snead and McVay do their thing building the team back up.

It has been a GREAT ride so far with those two! Go Rams!

The only real problem with the Rams is the DC. Everyone else is working hard to stay on top. Good enough Morris is the only one out of step. Instead he blames the players, hence the great purge that is only on the defensive side of the ball. If they were going to purge the defense they should have started with the DC.

This team still has a core of players to keep this team competitive. This is a tough schedule they are facing. But as long as Kupp, Stafford and AD hold up the Rams will always have a chance. Bottom line is that the Rams aren't outclassed by most of the NFL, but they are going to need luck and solid play to get to the playoffs. Right now I see the Seahawks and Rams as the primary contenders for the division. Darnold as talented as he is, doesn't look like a starting caliber QB.

The Rams need to focus on winning the NFCW then see how the chips fall in the playoffs.
