Rams Current News & Events!

We ended up with the super bowl most would've projected before Wentz got hurt. Foles really needs to be on his game to keep this a game IMO.

I want the eagles to slaughter the Pats but the refs probably wont let that happen

I want Minnesota to get a huge blizzard that weekend so they have to postpone the game.

They're used to that in the North. Only if the blizzard happens that day will they have issues with clearing the snow. Besides, they play indoors.

you know this week they must have had something, because when i called my insurance company (who is in minnesota) the phone said all the agents were not in the office because of weather conditions

I watched two minutes of the Jags game and thought what a joke. Didn't even bother with the Eagles game. Won't be that interested in the Super Bowl.

I almost read that as Jeff Fisher

 

[Retroram52]

This is classical and clear evidence for the notion that good-to-great coaches make a player great. Amendola is playing for his third ring. When we had him, his career was dying game-by-game. More evidence that the drama queen was a complete load of shit and wasted sooooo many draft picks!!! What a frikin poser!!

I think I went to summer camp with this guy... how many I Jedd Fisch's could there possibly be??? And I know this guy is from the East Coast which fits...

I almost had a heart attack because i thought it was his son...

 

[LongtimeRamsFan42]

Just found out that it is the same guy from camp....small world!!!

 

[Retroram52]

I wonder if Phillips has any interest and is Snead and Phillips able to talk Talib into playing for less? Pure speculation here on my part but I am wondering if there is any interest and can we afford this guy? Maybe???

 

[Retroram52]

BTW. E.J. Gaines is a FA. I wonder if he wants to return and can we afford him as well?

Here is our list of FAs and commentary provided by WalterFootball. Sometimes I wonder if these pundits are watching the same players as we fans and some of their predictions are mind boggling.

1. 
   Lamarcus Joyner, S, Rams. Age: 27.
   
   Lamarcus Joyner, a second-round pick in 2014, has improved each season in the NFL. He has evolved into one of the elite safeties in the NFL, and at just 27, he has at least five more terrific years remaining in his career.
   
   
2. Trumaine Johnson, CB, Rams. Age: 28.
   
   Trumaine Johnson suffered some sort of leg injury in Week 2 this season, and he was never really the same afterward. This past season was Johnson's worst in a while, but he's very talented and can rebound in 2018.
   
   
3. Sammy Watkins, WR, Rams. Age: 25.
   
   Sammy Watkins was a huge disappointment in 2017. Despite the Rams' offense setting franchise records, Watkins caught just 39 passes for 593 yards and eight touchdowns. Watkins is extremely talented, however, and he's still young (25 in June), so I expect him to dominate elsewhere in the near future, assuming he can stay healthy.
   
   
4. Dominique Easley, DT, Rams. Age: 26.
   
   With all the Rams' success in 2017, it's easy to forget that they missed Dominique Easley for the entire season with a torn ACL. Easley is extremely talented, but has a long injury history; he's missed 26 games in four NFL seasons.
   
   
5. John Sullivan, C, Rams. Age: 33.
   
   John Sullivan was once a very skilled center for the Vikings. He was a backup for a while after that for some reason, but the Rams gave him a chance to start, and it paid off. Sullivan had a strong 2017 campaign, but he's 33 and bound to regress at some point in the next 2-3 years.
   
   
6. Cody Davis, S, Rams. Age: 29.
   
   Cody Davis missed nine games this past season with a thigh injury. He's solid in coverage, but misses too many tackles.
   
   
7. Nickell Robey-Coleman, CB, Rams. Age: 26.
   
   Nickell Robey-Coleman was stellar as the Rams' slot receiver in 2017. However, he's not rated as high as his level of play this past season because he's been terribly inconsistent throughout his career. Still, Robey-Coleman is just 26, so perhaps his struggling days are over.
   
   
8. Matt Longacre (RFA), DE/OLB, Rams. Age: 26.
   
   Matt Longacre did well as a rotational edge rusher in Wade Phillips' defense this past season, logging 5.5 sacks in limited snaps. Longacre will be able to earn a starting job in the near future.
   
   
9. Connor Barwin, DE/OLB, Rams. Age: 31.
   
   Connor Barwin can still get to the quarterback - he had five sacks in 2017 - but he is a regressing player, as he'll turn 32 in October.
   
   
10. Derek Carrier, TE, Rams. Age: 28.
    
    
11. Cornelius Lucas, OT, Rams. Age: 27.
    
    
12. Tyrunn Walker, DT, Rams. Age: 28.
    
    
13. Darrell Williams, OT, Rams. Age: 25.
    
    
14. Lance Dunbar, RB, Rams. Age: 28.

I guess 10 through 14 don't merit any sort of commentary but I'd be willing to wager that all re-sign. I also wouldn' be surprised if we don't re-sgn all of them, 1 through 14.

Looks like Goff is going to have to work on being stripped saked in the off-season. Von Miller got him this time to end the Pro Bowl with the AFC win.

 

[shopson67]

He played well for the Bills this year, but again it was a matter of not being healthy all year.

As soon as that happened, it was like deja vu, lol. I think my actual response was something like "Yeah, that figures."

He's improved a ton this year, but 2 minute offense to win the game in the 4th is an area that definitely needs improvement.

Report: Rams floated as landing spot for Aqib Talib

[Retroram52]

I am thinking the same thing LRF.

 

[Rambunctious]

Talib would be great, he would be back playing for Wade and his former team mate Webster. A nice fit if you ask me.
