Rams Current News & Events!

[Vitamike]

Quinn's career is pretty much done anyways because he is not the same player since his back and ankle injuries and I suspect he will not be an effective element in Phillip's defense. Maybe he'll follow Williams to Cleveland. Good riddance!!

Politics aside, Quinn has not been the same player since he signed his big contract. I have less respect for him for this reason.

Regarding the politics, if I had a chance to visit President Obama in the WH, I surely would have gone. No where, no how, would I think I would have been conceding to my values, even though I believe he was the most disingenuous President of our time.

Even so, I don't have a problem with any of these men standing up for what they believe in, as long as it's without malice and does not infringe on the rights of others or the safety of others. In other words, I agree with you on your 'hands up, don't shoot' position Retro.

But still, it's our differences that makes our Nation great, and if we all thought the same, no one would need to think at all. A scary thought when you think about it, and one that reminds me of a 'Third Reich' mentality.

If you believe this article, all is not as peachy in Ramsland as the club would like everyone to believe. Also, Von Miller is a FA and may get slapped with a franchise tag on March 1. What if Miller follows Phillips to LA eventually? Interesting indeed. And Eddie Lacy and Starks are FA RBs (Starks was released today, Sunday, Feb 12, 2017) that could help Gurley in the run game.

This article pretty much sums up initial roster issues facing McVay and Snead or McSnead, the new sammich.

5 possible Mychal Kendricks trade partners for Eagles

Apparently the Eagles might make Mychal Kendricks available for trade, Rams should be all over that if true, especially if the cost is a day 3 draft pick.

Rams' new QBs coach thinks ceiling is 'really high' for Jared Goff

Sounds like we are surrounding Goff with coaches who believe in his talent/ability, which is NEVER a bad thing...These are also guys who have developed successful QB's in the past...

Rams' Goff leveraging noted QB-training facility

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff, coming off a trying rookie season, has been working with noted quarterback coaches Tom House and Adam Dedeaux.

House and Dedeaux run 3DQB, a quarterback training facility based in Los Angeles. And one of their many notable clients is reigning MVP Matt Ryan.

Matt LaFleur, the Rams' new offensive coordinator, spent the past couple of years as Ryan's quarterbacks coach and is happy to see Goff receive similar instruction.

"I've seen the benefits," LaFleur said while meeting with Rams reporters on Thursday. "What those guys do is pretty valuable, and it's not always obviously with the time constraints that we can work with these guys. And I think they offer some things that maybe we can't as coaches, from just a strength and conditioning standpoint in terms of how these guys train and keep their core strong, keep their shoulders strong.

"You're talking about a long season for these quarterbacks. I didn't see Matt Ryan fall off from day one to the Super Bowl. His arm strength was as good as it was at the end of the season. I think a lot of that was a credit to how he trained."

LaFleur, who began his new job on Monday, indicated that Goff is still "experimenting" with his offseason program and that working with House and Dedeaux took place before LaFleur even joined the Rams.

MMQB.com earlier reported that Goff had been working out with House and Dedeaux.

House, who spent eight years pitching in the big leagues throughout the 1970s, began coaching quarterbacks by helping Drew Brees overcome major shoulder surgery in 2006. From there, House also worked with Tom Brady. And down the road, he teamed with Dedeaux, a former minor league pitcher and the grandson of celebrated USC baseball coach Rod Dedeaux.

The two formed 3DQB around 2011. The program uses biomechanics to help get the most out of quarterbacks, their training composed of four key aspects: functional strength and conditioning, mechanics and motion analysis, nutrition and the mental side.

Heading into 2016, 3DQB was working with the likes of Brees, Ryan, Brady, Blake Bortles, Alex Smith, Andy Dalton, Carson Palmer, Joe Flacco, Marcus Mariota, Eli Manning and Case Keenum, who began the season as the Rams' starting quarterback.

Goff, the No. 1 overall pick in 2016, supplanted Keenum as the Rams' starter in Week 11 and struggled over his last seven games, all of them losses. During that stretch, Goff had the NFL's fewest yards per attempt (5.31), second-worst Total QBR (22.2), fourth-worst completion percentage (54.6) and fourth-lowest touchdown-to-interception ratio (0.71).

LaFleur, who will work closely with new quarterbacks coach Greg Olson, watched Goff at the combine last year.

"From what I've seen on tape, he's got some of the key attributes that you always look for in a quarterback," LaFleur said. "He's a natural thrower. You never want to see your quarterback getting hit too much, but he doesn't shy from contact. I think that's true of any good quarterback in this league. You have to be able to hang in there in some uncomfortable pockets and some uncomfortable situations where you're going to take a hit and deliver the football. He's proven that he'll do that on tape."

not gonna give a smiley face till we see results on the field

The Rams and possibly Goff had to do something because he was rapidly descending into a shithole with Fisher and his merry band of idiots.

 

[SJ76]

Fisher is gone. Thank you!


Now let's get a stud WR please

 

[Retroram52]

Precisely SJ. Alshon Jefferys is just sitting there and when the March date rolls around for teams to contact FAs, I would hope the Rams will be on the phone talking to one of the FA WRs. Other possibilities are DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon both of whom McVay has worked with in Washington.

 

[Retroram52]

Was watching the early game against Seattle this past season and sure enough, even though we won the game, I watched Barnes get repeatedly beat and beat badly. He was a waste of a roster spot. Period.

 

[Retroram52]

Now if Kenny Britt wants to stay with the Rams and actually be even more productive than this past year, I am sure McVay will embrace him if he changes his attitude of losing and dropping footballs when he thinks he is going to get hit especially over the middle.

 

[shopson67]

#Y'all hiring?

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, I'd sign this guy ASAP!

 

[Red_Chaos]

meh, doesn't sound worth it. he's more like a #2/#3 wr.

 

[shopson67]

meh, doesn't sound worth it. he's more like a #2/#3 wr.

He's more reliable than Britt IMO and knows McVay's system.

 

[SJ76]

Garçon depends on how much
