Limmer I refuse to give up on. We need to let go of the Philly playoff game. He had a lot of good play last year.

Shelton I was glad when he left and not glad when he returned. I thought it was strictly a back-up role when they rerequired him. . He couldn’t even solidify a role on a bad Chicago team.

The entire league has OL issues especially the 2nd unit. We are apart of the entire league…………..

Mathew Stafford passed for 4,000+yards for 7 straight seasons 2011- 2017

On September 29 2013 Stafford passed for 242 yards in a win vs the Chicago Bears.
Giving him 14,069 yards through 49 games, surpassing Kurt Warner (13,864) for the best 50-game start to a career.

2014 Stafford and the Lions Lost in the WC Round to Dallas

2015 Season.. Stafford became the first quarterback in NFL history to complete 60 percent or more of his passes in all 16 games.
He finished the 2015 season with 4,262 passing yards, 32 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions.
Despite Stafford's success, the Lions finished with a 7–9 record and missed the playoffs.
On December 13, 2015, in Week 14 vs the St. Louis Rams, Stafford reached 25,000 passing yards in his 90th career game, becoming the fastest quarterback to reach this milestone, surpassing the previous record held by Dan Marino of 92 games.

2016 Stafford and the Lions lost to the Seahags in the WC Round...

In 2017 and 2018 Stafford was ranked 31st by his peers on the NFL Top 100 Players List both years!

2021 SB Season... Stafford passed for the second-most yards in a single postseason with 1,188. He became the first quarterback since Eli Manning to lead a fourth-quarter comeback in a Conference Championship and a Super Bowl in the same playoff season. Stafford became the first player in NFL history to pass for at least 6,000 yards and 50 touchdowns in the regular season and postseason combined all while leading a team to a Super Bowl victory in the same season. He was ranked 27th by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2022.

In 2023 Stafford was ranked 42nd by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2024.

BTW There's 1600+ players in the NFL.

September 16th, 2025, 11:21 am Re: Today…….. September 16th, 2025, 11:21 am Re: Today……..

I’ve criticized Sean McVay plenty of times before, I’ve had my issues with him, but the truth is the guy only does one thing: win. That’s all he does. And you can’t criticize winning. Since he got here, the Rams have basically been a playoff team every single year. We’re talking eight seasons, five playoff appearances (and if we make it this year, that’s six out of eight), two Super Bowl trips, and one Lombardi Trophy. That’s an elite résumé, period.

And let’s not forget: in his very first year with Stafford, he already did what everybody dreams of — won a Super Bowl. That head coach–quarterback duo has delivered more in a short time than a lot of franchises manage in decades.

That’s why it’s ridiculous when someone keeps hammering away at McVay and Stafford nonstop. That’s not analysis, that’s an agenda (THIS!) . And that’s exactly what Truth does every single time: he just shows up to tear down a top-3 head coach and a Hall of Fame quarterback. That’s not constructive opinion, that’s pure bias.

Now, I get what Glendora said — having a stupid opinion isn’t against the rules. Fine. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s annoying and exhausting, because it drags down the quality of the forum . The simple fact is this: with McVay, the Rams went from being irrelevant to being a consistent powerhouse. You can nitpick about playcalling or certain decisions, sure, but you can’t argue with results.

So when someone tries to claim that McVay or Stafford aren’t good enough, it just shows they’re not looking at reality. Because the reality is that with McVay in charge, the Rams are always on the map, always competing, always winning.


You have been his toughest critic, but also extremely fair Brasil.

People listen more when you are fair. And to me, you have always been fair. People will ignore others in here when they have no evidence, are not fair and purely post from emotions

Very good post B, and fair.

We absolutely should have rolled this team period there is no excuse, nothing to learn from it. Poor defense all day against a team without their starting Center and Right Guard out and a marginal QB prone to mistakes their best cb, backup cb who was replacing Horn, and starting ILB.

This was an absolute must win. We have 2 really tough games left those Seattle and Detroit were questionable wins.

We need home field in the playoffs so we don't need to go to cold, rainy, possible snow type weather in Chicago, Greenbay, Philly, Seattle, even SF. Weather can effect the outcome of a game.

September 17th, 2025, 8:24 am Re: Today…….. September 17th, 2025, 8:24 am Re: Today……..
Stafford:
After becoming the 10th quarterback in NFL history to reach the 60,000-yard mark in Week 1, he accomplished an even rarer feat in Week 2, becoming the fifth quarterback in NFL history to pass for 15,000 yards with multiple teams.
The other quarterbacks who have achieved this are Jared Goff (Rams and Lions), Kirk Cousins (Washington and Minnesota), Peyton Manning (Indianapolis and Denver) and Carson Palmer (Cincinnati and Arizona). The fact that Goff and Stafford, who were traded for each other, have both reached 15,000 yards with their new teams is remarkable.

Stafford can continue moving his name up the record books this year, as he'll pass at least four quarterbacks on the all-time passing yards list if he throws for another 3,740 yards in 2025. He's also just one passing touchdown behind Matt Ryan, who is ninth all-time in the statistic.

Hell no!! We don’t need a guy who is going to sit this year in the first round. We need ILB, CB or TE period. All could be instant starters.


Simmons would be a good pick. You don't pick a TE in the first round if you have him 40th on your board. Fill the team with the best players out there. Now, if there is a CB that they love , I like that as well. Draft by board, not position.

I think this might be the worst Rams loss ever. It has to at least be in the top 5.
I thought the Super Bowl loss to the Pats was bad - being favored by 2 TDs. The cheating. But at least it was against a young Brady.

THIS game against the 49ers? We were playing against a team with an injured 2nd string QB, and multiple starters out.
It shouldn't have been close. On top of this, ANOTHER blocked kick!!!

The thing is, the offense played pretty well. The defense, not so much - but not terrible really. But certainly bad enough.
The fumbles, bad kickoff, refs didn't help.

Deferring in the OT? Are you high, McVay? Thier defense was gassed - why not just get them on the field again and crush them?


Ugh...I didn't even wear one of my many Rams hats today when leaving the house. It's not even about embarrassment - it's more about principal.


definitely top 5.....if we kick the FG to tie there was 4 min left. the way our D was playing they would have kicked a winning FG with seconds left on the clock.

These numbers are mind boggling- McVay is entirely responsible for this and MUST / MUST do some self evaluation on this major flaw in his HC bag and make the required changes . Seems to lack a dominant killer mentally in finishing games.

Its not Mcvay call. If Shula says Dolac is the best option, Dolac will start. Same way it was Shula who said why Reeder made the roster. Mcvay allows his DC to make those roster calls.


sure and if McVay says he want to start Reeder Shula will start Reeder

I said that, but Mcvay allows his DC to make those calls. He isnt a control freak when it comes to the defense. Which is why late last season and early this season, I was giving Shula all the kudos for how well the D is doing bc it is pretty much his show.

On offense, I give Mcvay the kudos and blame for whatever happens on offense bc he is a total control freak, like all the other Head Coaches with a OC background. The Rams OC gets a pass pretty much either way imo. Not to say the OC doesnt play a major role, just saying that Mcvay makes the final say on offense.

Defense is different, Mcvay allows his DC to run the show, so I give the DC credit or blame for what happens on D.
Same with Special Teams, that's why Chase imo needs the boot.

With all that said, if the offense, defense or special teams fail, it all ultimately falls on Mcvay. Rightfully so. Im just pointing out that more likely Mcvay will allow Shula to make the call, whether or not Reeder starts.

When there's no leadership, both on the field and from the coach's. Who's the ST's Captain or don't they do that anymore?
How you don't have coverage or blocking schemes down to some semblance of consistency by game 15 and still be employed is what was most maddening to me. Some have been calling for him to be gone, 10 weeks ago and unfortunately, it turned out just like they said back then....
Rumblings that the new guy should've been ST coach from the start. I hope they're right and it was on scheme and not so much on talent level.

So when they players on field don't execute Sean's a Shitty play caller.
When they do, it's because the players played great!
Cause if a play blows up because the other team did their jobs and made some plays, it's Sean's shitty play calling...
I thought like that in grade 5 maybe....


Pretty much

For example the redzone

Drops, poor throws, penalties and fumbles has cost the rams at least 6 tds. If players execute the rams would be one of the better redzone teams but since the players didnt that means the play calls are bad.

October 17th, 2025, 5:38 am Re: TE Situation October 17th, 2025, 5:38 am Re: TE Situation




The importance of a good blocking tight end can not be understated. I am not sold on Davis, I think he is a little slow footed. It will be interesting to see how Johnny Mundt and Hunter Long do against us this week (hopefully, not well).


I agree, Blocking tights end are important and the rams have been able to find one throughout the years. Mundt, Long and now Park.

Its the play making tight end that seems to elude the rams. 2022 and 2019 Higbee might be some of the best numbers I have seen from a rams tight end, since I started watching the rams mid 80s

Blocking is def important. But we did NOT draft Ferg for his blocking skills. It will be great to see another weapon if he ever gets out there.

I really wanted them to draft Conerly due to T concerns. It’s possible they may feel that KT Leveston is for real. Maybe Trey Wedig from Wisconsin and Indiana could turn into a real swing tackle. Maybe… https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2025/5/10/24425001/rams-offensive-linemen-undrafted-free-agents

It’s likely a veteran backup will emerge this summer though.


I was waiting for someone to bring up KT Leveston. Could he and/or McClendon shore up the RT spot? If so that still only leaves Arcuri as backup LT and last time that did not go well. KT was exclusively a LT at K-State so maybe he's plan B..

For those scoring at home, Dedich and McMahon are both OG/OC types. Not sure what we'd do at LT.

Recognizing Kupp probably wasn't the answer and making that super tough decision to let him go was really smart

Immediately replacing him with Adams another very smart decision.

Acquiring a huge run stuffer in Poona Ford and letting Brown walk was another great move.

Resigning Stafford and Jimmy G to solidify the QB position elevates are chances

The draft I really like what Les did quality over quantity plus solidifying several key backup positions. Hoecht left in FA and drafting a strong OLB was really smart thinking. With Higby always injured Ferguson will really help. Getting Paul and even Dolac will make the ILBs stronger. Rotational depth at RB and DL made both positions deeper.

Signing a KR/PR something that has gone by the wayside in past years thought in getting better improved the STs.

After June 1 I would like to see a CB upgrade and backup T but T takes precedent. Our backup T was Noteboom and he wasn't good we must must must upgrade the position.

Overall Les and his team and McVay and his team really did a masterful job at shoring up and improving the team bravo!

Ok McVay has a few flaws. This isn’t something we didn’t know. As far as “he belongs”. I have no idea what that is suppose to mean………

Yes the league is dominated by bad HC’s. Again not news. Ours is not one of them………

Bottom line for the umpteenth time. If McVay left the Rams he would be the top guy wanted by anyone looking for a HC. You would also have other teams firing their current one to try to get McVay. He would also be paid the highest salary in the history of the NFL for a HC…..

Again for the umteenth time McVay will never become available by the Rams. Kroenke is a smart business man n isn’t stupid………

I was unfamiliar with most of the players excecpt Norm Van Brocklin.

The game was played at Kezar Stadium. Van Brocklin passed 16/18 for 290 yards and 3 TDs; Elroy Hirsch had 5 receptions 145 yards, and 2 TDs.

Love it when the 9ers lose!



There's quite a bit of 'recency bias' in looking at those early-to-mid-1950s versions of the Rams, plenty of fans don't appreciate what terrific performers our team had back then; there's a reason that players like Norm van Brocklin, Elroy 'Crazylegs' Hirsch, Bob Waterfield, Dick 'Night Train' Lane, Tom Fears and Les Richter are all in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Our team won that game by 42-34, however the Good Guys finished at only 6-5-1 overall that season, which resulted in merely a fourth-place finish in the Western Conference, it was their worst record since '47 (6-6).

If the Browns and Lions hadn't fielded such dominant squads during that '50-55 time period, the Rams likely would have managed more than their single NFL championship ('51) of the decade... :? ;) :geek:

Kyren is a good RB. He is not elite at all. And the fumbling issues will follow him the rest of his career.

Sadly, Good RBs can be had in rounds 3-6 of the draft each year. No need to pay big bucks to keep him happy.

If need be: Next man up.

Now for OT, that's a different issue.

Just a huge next 2 weeks if this team is going to win division. I still feel they are in good shape,barring injuries, to make playoffs but you need to win this Sunday and at least split with Seattle if you want to win division.

Sunday? The game is about Rams D n Niners offense. I’m confident McVay n Stafford will finds ways to score Sunday. Just protect the ball.

I agree with others stop CMC. But it is also stop Kittle, Jennings, n Bourne. D is going to have to be damn good on Sunday.

First of all, it is just 1 preseason game. (I would say this no matter who was playing.) I thought he did really well. That was the Stetson I saw at UGA. He is deceptively fast/shifty as well. (Not Lamar Jackson fast.) He made some really good throws and seemed to have good command of the offense. I hope he does just as well, if not better, in the next 2 preseason games. He missed a couple opportunities, but even the greats miss some. His interception could have gone either way and at least he wasn't scared to try and make a throw.

I am not ready to claim he will make the team, but he definitely took a step in the right direction. I told Delmar 2 weeks ago that I would not be surprised if Stetson beat out Jimmy G. I know that is not likely, BUT I would not be surprised. I am probably one of a few that would make that statement. At least last night we saw a glimpse of why McVay and team have kept him around. I have learned never to doubt the guy. I am also happy for him and hope he continues to improve.
