[soggymoss]

Aqib Talib too.

Yep, and they traded away their defensive leader in Ogletree

That's not subtle at all.

As far as matchups go when we play them, I'd guess

Lattimore-Cooks
Crawley-Woods
P-Rob-Kupp

Bell/Coleman-Tyler Higbee

That doesn't really scare me, I like our chances there. Gurley is really the main threat and we did a pretty good job containing him last time. Like to add another DT/DE to rotation in the draft so that our guys come in fresh. Defensive side is going to be a different story. But on offense they not that scary to me.

Yep contain the running game. Make defensive adjustments after the the coach is out of his ear and then abuse them.

They will have to get creative to get cooks open. That motion and all the BS you have to do to get him off of press man will eat into the time the coach is in his ear.


Not worrying unless the QB can learn how to read.

There is no way the Rams will be able to pay all these players when rookie contract end.

 

[El Caliente]

So with 2 first rounders, do the Pats go and get OBJ?

 

[gumbotron]

Los Angeles Yankees ......

Some say they are interested in a QB...but knowing the Pats they will trade back and get 4 2nd rounders and 3 3rd rounders

 

[CowtownSaint]

I feel like they have ruined their whole identity and chemistry with all their moves. A lot of pressure on McVay, reinforces my feelings that they may regress.

Does anybody know if they are changing the rule where McVay was able to talk to Goff while he was lined up at scrimmage

 

[Clintonrebel]

He was traded because he would cost a fortune to keep. Maybe one of the other LA WR’s will hit the trade market. They had some good ones.

 

[JermHerm]

Rams trying to win that offseason champs title. If they don't come out and win right off the bat, it could get ugly in that locker room. Who's the player that's gonna step up and be the leader if the season isn't going as planned? Is Goff that guy? A QB in a gimmick offense that basically has his coach holding his hand down the field doesn't strike me as a rally the troops kind of guy. Who else could it be? Suh? Cooks? Talib or Peters? Yeah, good luck with that.

Ummm Aaron Donald??

 

[Quiet Storm]

They're basically doing what we should be doing. Win now.

I know we struck gold last year in the draft but can we do that again?? We definitely need another WR to get the double teams off Thomas, a speed rushing DE would be great, so would a double team taking DT.

I guess we'll see..

 

[Saintmeister]

If they don't play in the SB this season they might as well send for the moving vans. They barely averaged 25k in attendance! Winning record and playoff birth are not enough for that fickle fan base. I give them 10 yrs and they will be the Albuquerque Rams...

And everyone in Albuquerque will still be Broncos fans.
