I could wear a suit of armor...Would cut down on my mobility but would certainly up my ability to take a hit :D

No, with this o-line we need somebody that is fast as hell with concrete head! :trash:

And exactly how would that be fair to him?? He would be killed out there behind that O line. he's probably had very little reps. His career would most likly be over before it started. I don't think they can do that to him.
Hell, just play two different QB's in every game from here out.

That way you mitigate the total number of hits by half for Foles/Keenum/Mannion.

Now, rotate the third QB every next game and you mitigate that number by an additional 33 percent.

Week - First Half/Second Half
Week 12 - Mannion/Foles
Week 13 - Foles/Keenum
Week 14 - Keenum/Mannion
Week 15 - Mannion/Foles
Week 16 - Foles/Keenum
Week 17 - Keenum/Mannion

They all get playing time, you get to see how each performs in game situations, what chemistries emerge, and maybe one or two of them survive the season.

Yea, that is a decent plan Vita in light of no team anything on offense. Let's see what we have before next year's draft. I'd do that with the WRs and the RBs as well. We are already doing this on the O-line. Might as well include everyone else.

As I'm sure you are aware, I was totally tongue in cheek, but you're right, we already do this with the offensive line, why the hell not with other roster spots?

I mean, what is our record if we win out?

(Had to chuckle as I wrote those last four words of that question)


Well, it's 10-6 and even that is a long shot even if we do win out. I read today that our chances of making the playoffs are under 5%.

So it's not like we are going to see any post season action, right?

So why the hell not?

Yep, I totally agree. We have nothing to lose and everything to gain to find out who is going to execute and want to win and who is going to just show up for a game check.

Ugh, I can't believe this season is in the crapper AGAIN.

The Rams don't go on winning streaks under Fisher, so even .500 is a long shot.

The only thing we have to look forward to is the draft ( which they will screw up again somehow ), and hope and pray Gurley doesn't get seriously injured playing for this crappy team.

Yep, ALR, we are back to square one looking forward to the draft just like every year for the last 15 frikin' years. And I agree, we look to see how badly they'll screw-up this draft just like very year for the past 15 frikin' years.

It's a long shot, but with Atlanta in a tailspin, 9-7 might make the playoffs.

Meanwhile, nobody gets starter reps in practice...

To make matters worse, you watch... Fisher will still be employed here come next season!! :puke:

Fisher stuck with Hill, Wells, Joseph, J. Long, and others last year, why would he want to see what we do have and don't have this year?

Well if the Rams need the draft to get a top tier QB then I suggest they pull as many starters out as they can and lose every game left this year. They will not find a good QB in the 2nd or 3rd round. IMO

remember Brady was in the 6th round..... So anything is possible.... Though that is pretty unlikely
