The Rams look like crap. And our OLine looks like the Cowboys Oline from the early 90's compared to the Rams
This looks like two bad teams.
Who really thinks Jeff Fisher is a good head coach?
Case Keenum has no business playing QB in the NFL. Play calling has been pretty bad, but Keenum has no arm strength, has been inaccurate, and seems to refuse to pass the ball down the field. Passing side-to-side just won't get you the results you're looking for when the defense is already doing nothing but try to stop the run.
Meant to say no business starting in the NFL. He's a guy that you have as a 3rd stringer only expected to come in if your first and second stringers get injured. He'll suffice in that role.'No business in the NFL' is a bit aggressive to me, but I don't have much to refute that statement with this game. He's been bad, there's been zero protection, his best receiver is Deangelo Hall, and the plays are coming in way too late - and are horrid calls and horrid designs. The Rams have no business in the NFL.
So why are the Rams having such a bad day, I see Keenum has 2 picks, feel bad for the guy
I've watched the entire game, and I'd say it started with horrendous play calling by Fisher and company. Then when decent plays were called to try and throw the defense off, Keenum was inaccurate and/or didn't have the arm strength to get it to his target without allowing the defense plenty of time to react. Just bad all around.So why are the Rams having such a bad day, I see Keenum has 2 picks, feel bad for the guy
That's what I'm saying. It's 10 yard floaters. He has looked better in years past but if this is the new Case Keenum, dude needs to be nothing more than a 3rd string QB.That Keenum throw on first down was not a throw an NFL qb should make ever.
That was horrid.
If punters got fantasy points....
Fisher is strangely worshipped around the league. It's baffling that a guy that has coached as long as he has with as few playoff or winning seasons as him is so revered. I doubt he goes anywhere.I could see firing Fisher tonight.
Maybe they'll recover from their hard knocks hangover like we did.
For as much grief as I give O'Brien and McNair and so many of the decisions we've made in the past 10 years - the Rams have a fraction of the talent that we do. Even when it was Kubiak and a bunch of bad coordinators that he kept choosing, we at least still had Kubiak. I can hate O'Brien to infinity, but at least we still have RAC and Vrabel. The Rams have nothing.
They might sneak a game, probably against the 49'ers at home, but it wouldn't surprise me if they went 0-fer.
Don't want to turn this thread into a Kubiak thread, but I feel the need to respond to this.I agree with you, and oversimplified by calling them 'bad' coaches. Smith and Bush were solid coaches with tenure and proven successes. In another world they might've been smaller parts of the 'Worth the Wait' special, but weren't really prepared for the task of building a defense from zero and 40% respectively. Something that was only learned after giving them that chance. A flaw or virtue with Kubiak, he'll give those deserving a real chance. His rookie RB fumbled on his first NFL play ... and got the next carry.
His flaw is his seeming overly passive nature regarding management. I feel that he (and Wade) got jobbed by McNair, and Kubiak doesn't see when coaches/scouts/management are a detriment because he only sees their effort. Elway fixes all of that with his aggressive nature, and not having an owner to offer a contradicting opinion nor an avenue to circumvent the chain of command that was prevalent in Houston was paramount. Part of that 'Worth the Wait' show was Elway saying 'Kubes said he went with his gut, so I supported him' ... a far cry from 'put in Keenum'.
Edit: I used too many 'K' names, my stalker is going to show up in 3, 2, 1 ...
I don't think you needed to do that. This thread is about the rest of the NFL and last I checked, Kubiak is no longer a Texan.You're right, and I need to delete the previous post and ask you to do the same to keep this thread from going sideways.
I'm sure most of you watch Hard Knocks, and I'm literally laughing out loud at one of the first episodes when Fisher is talking about not going 7-9. He starts ranting about this not being a 7-9 or 8-8 football team and that he knows what he's doing to get them where they need to go.
