Los Angeles Rams thread

[nate]

You watch Mahomes and the dude has the most insane arm and they score a lot of TDs, but he has also thrown a lot of INTs.  Give him another two years to become more experienced and he will be the best QB in the league.

One of the greatest games in NFL history.

Well, if this was indeed a super bowl preview, we're in for one incredible game.

[Amazing Larry]

That game was epic. 

[RallyMo]

That was lots of fun. 

[Angel Dog and Beer]

I haven't watched too many NFL games this year, just too busy with the kids, but saw most of every play tonight. Picked a good game to be able to watch it all. Just incredible.

[Homebrewer]

@Lou is busy right now going through posts from 2016 screaming about what a huge mistake it was to go after that turd Goff.

[Brandon]

Driving home from the game now. Pretty insane to be a part of. My back is shot to shit because no one would sit down. 

Thanks for the tix Aaron.

Drafting goff could set the franchise back 5 years or more if he's not a superstar. It's not looking good. I never understood why goff was the given over wentz in their eyes.

Yeah, the big splash.

The Rams have sold 80,000 seats to all seven home games.  Do you think there would have been less if they didn't draft Jared Facking Goff?

This Big Splash stuff is incredible.  If the Rams would have drafted, say, Troy Aikman out of UCLA this year; or traded for the current Aaron Rodgers - that's a big splash.

Jared Goff from Cal was in now way a big splash.

People running these teams are imbeciles.

Did you guys watch the frigging preseason?  Goff sucked!  Two fumbles and two Ints in very limited time.  The reason they lost on Monday night wasn't because Goff was in street clothes.

You're on another planet if you think Luck and Goff are remotely similar

Johnson: Well, I think [Jared Goff’s benching] is about everybody. I think it’s the people that have to get Jared Goff prepared. I think it’s about the individuals that made the decision to draft him, whether it was Kevin Demoff or whether it was Les Snead with a little bit of help from Jeff Fisher.

From my outside people and the inside people that I know with the Rams, that wasn’t the choice that Jeff Fisher really wanted. I think he was basically forced to draft Jared Goff.

Smith: Who did he want?

Johnson: I think he wanted more players. I think he wanted more players because he felt that he could be more competitive with more players, but they felt they needed to make a splash moving into Los Angeles and drafting a quarterback.

Look. I don’t care what anybody say, and I say this all the time. I’ve seen Jared Goff for three years. Three years out here in the Pac-12. I like him. He’s a nice kid, but he wouldn’t have been my #1 overall pick. He just wouldn’t have been. He doesn’t give me...

This isn’t Andrew Luck or Cam Newton we’re talking about. You don’t move up to take this type of guy.

Big Splash!  I thought it was a bad idea to dump picks into the #1 pick.  They have needs that could have been filled, and instead they emptied the cupboard.  You empty the cupboard when Andrew Luck is available.  Not Jared Goff.

If this is true....

THE SPLASH WAS THE NFL RETURNING TO LOS ANGELES.  THAT WAS NOT JUST A SPLASH, IT WAS A TIDAL WAVE.  DRAFTING SOME IDIOT (duh, I don't know whether the sun rises or sets in the west) AND GIVING UP TWO DRAFTS TO GET HIM ISN'T A SPLASH!

God, i'd like to shoot whoever used the word "splash" in the Angels and Rams front office.

Goff must suck if keenum is still starting

no draft picks for the next few years either

Probably better than this pile of crap the Rams put together . Id rather pay my hard earn money to see Rivers than this bum Goff!

And even more pathetic, only one game in the past three produced those free burgers.    And that was Atlanta feeling sorry for the Rams after taking a 42-0 lead.

Again, penalties, penalties, penalties!

Hey Greg Robinson, are you even paying attention to the game???????????????

Drafting Robinson 2nd overall AND trading six good draft picks for Goff, two reasons alone that Les Snead needs to go!

 I agree 

[Blarg]

Obviously the Rams needed more players. 

[NJHalo]

That was a fun game to watch. However, I do prefer a game in which the defense is a factor, and it does not come down to who can score last.

Some of my greatest memories of classic games are defined by great defenses, sacks, goal line stands, QBs taking a beating. 

This was fun to watch, like an arena football game, but I would not want to see a season full of this type of offensive explosions. 

[Blarg]

Defense was a factor. The Rams defense intercepted two passes at the most critical point in the game, stopping KC. It may have took nearly four quarters for them to show up but the defense definitely helped win that game. 

Imagine, just for a moment, if the Rams had a truly high caliber defense. Last night's game would have been a massacre. Every game would be a massacre putting the ball back into the hands of the Rams offense more often. 

[m0nkey]

There were three defensive TDs

[m0nkey]

3 defensive TDs, 3 picks, 8 sacks, and 4 lost fumbles

[Blarg]

KC sucks.

Perhaps I worded it wrong. I meant I wish defense was a factor in the end. It really looked like no one was stopping either offense in that fourth quarter. It had that feel of whoever had the ball last was going to win. Rams score with less than two minutes left, and everyone is worried that they left too much time on the clock. No confidence in either defense to make a stop at the end when it mattered the most.

Ouch.  That just goes to show the difference in coaching between McVay and SC's next head coach
