I've had that happen as well. I flew to St Louis once to see Jamie Martin play QB.

Was Jamie Martin the guy that Martz said in the presser afterwards “ he held this team hostage?” I drove out to watch that game whoever that was in AZ! Lol

Yes... we do know the problem.. they don't have enough pass rushing talent on their front, outside of Aaron Donald.

Michael Hoecht... is playing outside linebacker.... I fricken LOVE Hoecht.. but, come on.

Naw.....it's the 10 yard cushion by our CB's and opposing QB's dumping it off in less than three seconds....in some some cases less than two seconds. No way for even the great Aaron Donald to get there in time.

Well, those who see success can get to be a bit blind to what is really happening than what they believe is happening.

It is exactly my concern. And truly hope I am completely wrong. McVay is unique. Good unique. But not vulnarable to human nature.

He is young. And maybe before his time is my concern.

The only problem I see concerning McSnead is Oline evaluation. They overvalued an injury prone, marginal LT and undervalued Interior Olinemen in the previous few drafts, imho.

FWIW the player that McVay collided with was none other than Roger Carter. WTG Roger I wonder if Roger will be active next week.

Not much to vent about. All of these injuries and starting a QB that is not NFL caliber, on the road, in a tough place to play, against an absolutely elite roster. The game was a lot more competitive than I expected it would be.

Yeah, this is pretty much it.
We held KC to a few field goals, but obviously don't have the fire power to make a real game of it.
We might have a player in Williams when he runs behind a better OL, so that's promising.
Injuries to a minimum next season then we're a contender.

Have no idea. How would I?

But to ignore the difference means it will happen again.

Something changed. It is only obvious to some evidently. I don't expect others to see the same.

No head in the sand here. These are issues that are beyond healthy organizations.

Really tried to understand your reasoning here but it seems to be as simple as There Has To Be Some Reason for the excessive injuries.

You speculated that it was McVay. Then Management. Now it has to be "Something changed'. No facts or specifics but it's got to be something is different or has changed. That sounds a little like a Conspiracy Theory.

I see the Rams' 2022 failure as being primarily the result of an extreme number of injuries, especially to the unit (O-Line) that most needs continuity. No 'Head in the sand' here. Just the way things go sometimes when a team is decimated by injuries.

Even gave a couple of specific examples; and pointed out that the teams I mentioned (Niners, Ravens and Rams) all had the same head coaches and front offices through the up/down seasons. Those teams went from very good to quickly being bad (due to excessive injuries) and, then, back to being good in the case of the Niners and Ravens.

Forth string Left tackle.

No way this isn't about management.

No team is even close to us.

There is something here that you can't brush off. Too much.

They all got hurt.. they had to sign guys from the street.

We also had both our starting WR out and our starting QB out....

Possible Reasons

1) Conditioning and Strength Coaches not up to par (I believe we did lose an important strength and conditioning coach last year)
2) Turf at SOFI needs to be replaced after a few years wear and tear
3) Players selected in the drafts have a history of being injured (I haven't checked that statement - just throwing it out there)
4) Just unlucky

Or all of the above in some way contribute to it
 
We can vent all we want folks...I don't think there's another team hit with the injuries to their OLine, and then their primary WR like the Rams have...and then Stafford is down, whom I wouldn't play for at least another 2 weeks.

We've seen this happen to other teams...now the Rams are in that barrel. JUST SUCK IT UP AND PLAY. One things for sure...were learning about the depth chart.

This was the best the D has played this year. Good to see ramsey on kelce some of the time. Even though he got beat a couple of times. The D came in up for it. To bad ou O is decimated.

Did McVay just say in his presser that Robinson is now out for the year with a stress fracture in his foot?

I would officially like to tell the football gods to go fuck themselves. They need to be on notice...

This team shall suffer no major injuries for the next 5 seasons after this ridiculousness and if they do, well...we're coming for you.
