Los Angeles Rams thread

[Angel Oracle]

So far in 7 games for Miller:

4.5 sacks, 19 tackles (solo and assist), 9 QB hits

Hate to see two more high draft picks traded, but understand their sentiment of trying for the Super Bowl this season at SoFi.

[Blarg]

Those are second day picks. It's not like they have any first round picks left to trade.

[Slegnaac]

Some where George Allen is approving this trade.

You do realize it was 2nd stringers that played the 4th quarter?

You do realize that my point still stands.

[Blarg]

No. 

[Angel Oracle]

Hoping the Rams won’t take their foot off the pedal today, as Derrick Henry won’t be playing

Great opportunity to go 9-1 into the bye week after the SF MNF game.

Stafford laying an egg...

[Blarg]

McVey is in love with the passing game too much. Stafford has made a few terrible errors but some can be blamed on the play call for pass, pass, pass, and no running game.

Yet, Henderson is averaging 5.5 per carry in the game.

McVay

What do you know, 12 yd running play on 1st down.

The same reason you overreact to everything. 

[Slegnaac]

Where are the quick screens?

They are getting killed on trying to throw deep.

[Slegnaac]

And those butt towels are a terrible look.

[Angel Oracle]

10-7 record incoming, everyone knows how to defend the Rams now.

Meantime, Henderson averages 5 yards per carry but only gets 11 carries.   Should have had a running play on 4th and 1.

Overrated McVay is in love with the outmoded Al Davis offense.   Throwing deep continually does NOT work!

Vrabel >>>>>> McVay

Especially at motivating

#4 in total offense per game (#3 in passing yards)

[Blarg]

Tonight the Titans really put pressure on that passing game with sacks and two interceptions that resulted in 14 points of offense. They contained Kupp better than other Ram opponents.

I still think the Rams under utilized their running game and that allowed the Titans to rush hard and let the linebackers play deeper. I would like to see them use the running game to force those defenders to stay at home which should open up passing lanes but tonight it seemed they could not commit to a more complete but slower moving offense.

Whitworth is starting to show his age.

Even Jackie Slater had to retire at 41.

They better for dang sure utilize the running game more next season, having both Henderson and Akers.

And dump the stupid 5 wideouts.   You need more blocking for Stafford than just the OLmen.

it was one of those nights where they just didn't seem to call the right plays. 

the sky has not fallen.

[Slegnaac]

Stupid Defensive penalties, and this isn't the first game. One of the DBs was ejected from an earlier gamethis season. #5 was close to being tossed last night.

Even though the Titan tackled him well out of bounds on the INT, but wasn’t called for it?

It wasn’t even close to being a legal tackle.

Robert Woods tore his ACL in practice yesterday.

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

Huge loss for a team that's all in this year.  Higbee, Jefferson, OBJ or someone else will need to step up big time as opposing teams will focus even more on Kupp going forward.  They would benefit from establishing the run more to open things up for the passing game. 

[Blarg]

They need to run the ball to keep the linebackers out of Stafford's face. That is all the offense needs to do, keep the rush to 4 instead of 6 man.

Yes, that leaves linebackers to cover the middle or maybe pick up Kupp once in a while but it gives Stafford time to search the field for more than just his primary receivers and forcing passes because of pressure.  

[Tank]

von miller will make his debut for the rams Monday night. haven't heard yet if OBJ is going to play.

[Angel Oracle]

Niners 26th against the run, 4th against the pass

At least for tonight McVay, stop being stubborn and run the ball more often.

You have two solid enough RBs.

No more everyone into the pattern!
