can't take this thread seriously when the OP puts bacon and eggs as an option and not potato salad

and besides Stan's stadium should be finished by 2020 he needs wins to fill the seats not loses

Sorry but what makes you think that stadium will bring in more fans? Maybe they'll have lots of attractions for the LAers?
They just went to the SB and were outnumbered 4-1 from reports I heard.

:crazy: do you even read my post?

I said he has a stadium to fill. Meaning he has to get his team at a constant winning level so fans will come so he can fill it and make money. The only reason that Atlanta's stadium was over run 4-1 is because 1 your team has had time to be a fan base, and 2 Ram's have only been back in California for 2 years. and maybe 3 Georgia is closer to Boston than La

It was a question is all. They were at the top of their game this year and couldn't bring the fans in.

You would think NE fans would be saturated with winning. Fans are only allowed to purchase so many tickets per fanbase. Until one side doesn't purchase them. That's why the #s were the way they were.
Shame on Ram fans it should've been the other way around. LA is just not a football town.

There are only so many balls to go around. Talent on both sides of the ball wasn't the problem.
Execution, expirience and desire were.
Totally agree.

Didn't the Rams average over 72,000 fans at home this season? Actually that is more than the 65,000 average the Patriots drew this past season.

65k is a sellout crowd in Gilette.
72k looks impressive considering they took out 15k other seats.
Yes the Rams since being in LA had an up year during year 1, then a down year in year 2. Last year, their best statistical season saw a big increase.
Yet they still didn't show up for the SB. You have to ask yourself why don't you?
It's called lots of businesses have tickets they give away. Another large portion are known as fair weather fans.
The Rams went to the SB and the fanbase didn't show up. That tells you something.

The desire comment came from Gurley's comments of not caring if he got the ball or not.
Goff just looked out of it.
Cooks has never had the desire to fight for the ball.
Both highly rated lines pretty much got smacked around all game.
Sorry I just didn't see much desire as a team.
I did see and hear Donald with the fire in his belly:thumb:
Just my observations.
I've said over the years I put a lot of stock in team chemistry. Which takes into account leadership, attitude and commraderie. I think it plays a bigger role then lots of people give credit for.


This is part delirious part tard. But I still like u NWPatsfans. No matter what anyone says about u

That's a good question, but I have been a Ram fan since 1954 and I would rather stay at home and watch the Super Bowl on television. Again the Rams had the NFL 10th best average attendance at 72,000 this past season. The Rams new stadium has a capacity of 70,000 and the Rams no doubt will sellout most games.

The Rams will be good next year but it won't be a slam dunk winning the division.
Well the Hawks were 10-6 this past season and very few fans thought that they would finish 4-12 or 5-11. The Hawks could have beaten the Rams both game they played them. I would never count the Seahawks out.

I had them pegged at 8 wins with tops 10 if things broke their way and low as 6 or 7 wins. They surprised the hell out of me and played very well past the mid way point. Both those Rams loses were tough but they were the better team. With cap space this year, I expect Seattle to add a piece or two and hopefully contend for the west crown.

I see a few issues for the Rams in the near future:

- Barely competitive division.

- Other teams in the NFC are better; note how the Rams for instance have now lost twice to an Eagles team - IN LA - that was riddled with injuries, especially the second time around. And in both games there was a lot at stake for them.

- The Rams were an extremely healthy team - at least for the top of the depth chart - throughout the season. Just the law of injury averages suggests that they will lose more important players next season than they did this season.

- Sean McVay for being an alleged offensive genius has shown to be conservative, and so far shown little ability to adapt his offense to certain schemes and in game adjustments. The fact that the Pats were able to follow the blue print laid down by the Lions, Eagles and Bears and completely shut down the Rams is telling.

- Goff is still a question mark. He seemed to have answered it in the regular season (mostly), but the SB raised them again.

Your whole take is garbage, first off, the Rams defensive line did not get smacked if you believe that, than you obviously didn't watch the game. Secondly, don't waste everyone's time with saying the Rams lacked chemistry, leadership, etc. Again complete nonsense, what you had was a season championship versus an inexperienced up and comer. Sean McVay in two took a 4-12 team and had them win their conference in two seasons, pretty remarkable. By introducing a new culture to a team in badly need of it, before he cam came, we were good at getting in fights if games didn't go our way, a whole of lot uncontrolled agression. The game was 3-3 going into the middle of the 4th. Rams will grow from this inexperience, coach and players alike. People act like they go blown out in the Super Bowl by an inexperienced team too.

Barely competitive division, ok, we had two teams in the playoffs the last two years.

Other teams are better, Based on what exactly? :lol: ok, so regular season losses. Okay, Rams lost to good teams are the road. Even though no team has had a better road record than the Rams the last two years. But that was Philly's Super Bowl this year, beating the Rams in a meaningless regular season game. Congrats on the win. Crazy, how you couldn't repeat, and we had to beat the team that you couldn't beat in the playoffs.

Losing Cooper Kupp is not big enough injury, Talib for half the season, Gurley for various parts, is he even fully healthy now. Yes, no good players were injured this year. :L

You know what the sad part is, that you Eagles fans think Wentz and Dougie P are better, you don't even realize that your one hit season will be that. Enjoy watching the Rams in the playoffs from now on.

Part of the problem Eagles fans, is this winning a title is all new experience for you. So you don't know how to handle, to stubborn to believe the window is closing.

I agree the NFC West was a "barely competitive division" last season, but when you look at the NFC West the top two teams were just as good as the top two teams in the NFC East, North and South. I agree that Goff had a bad SB , but I would take him over 80% of the QB'S in the NFL.

Well you may be right? We'll see especially if the team starts to drop off.
Between Cle, STL and LA there are plenty of Ram fans. I can't believe how they didn't show up for the SB.

Agreed. Seattle and SF should improve. That Ram window is closing quickly. They missed a great opportunity.
This was not a stout NE team. Expirience and peaking at the right time gave them the slightest edge.
