Rams Current News & Events!

[Vitamike]

Well, this is good news. I hope this team shows-up Monday Night in San Francisco.

Metrics show the Rams are dominating the trenches on both sides of the ball

The Rams have been dominant in the trenches on both sides of the ball through the first nine weeks.

Outside the metrics, this was exactly what I was saying. As they point out, although Matt was sacked 5 times, not all should be pitted on the Offensive Line.

In other words, as I mentioned on the game thread, Matt was hanging onto the ball early on and/or as many here pointed out, the play calling wasn't mixing in the run enough and taking what the defense was giving them despite the offensive line winning big on run plays. Don't expect Henderson to run away from anybody, just shimmy through the offensive line's push and find the holes to move the chains or keep it to short and manageable.

I think Sean's aversion with running the ball early, in large, lays on Matt's plate. Matt admits to being a slow starter, so it just makes sense to get him going, and into a rhythm.

With that in mind, I believe the Titans committed to playing the Rams offense like they had a huge lead, pinned their ears back, and didn't let the Rams beat them over the top from the first down the Rams offense played on Sunday Night. Makes sense to me, as the Rams were running the ball a better clip than normal.

Oh well, all they can do is learn from this and move forward. It's time for Sean to beat the 49ers like his team is favored to do!

I'm getting the feeling that OBJ goes to the Rams

Looks like OBJ to the Rams!!!

The contract is being finalized right now

OBJ will shine and be awesome for the RAMS. He is ready to explode after not being used much and having a crap QB like what's his name in Cleveland. TOP NOTCH WR.

I am not sure about this one. If the Rams couldn't handle the fragile ego of D. Jackson, what makes McSnead think they are going to have no problems with the man-child OBJ?

Also, Colton Shelton is taking over at Center because Allen has a bad elbow that is making his playing difficult.

Odell Beckham Jr. signs one-year deal worth up to $4.25 million with Rams, WR also considered Packers

Atleast we didn’t trade for him…..not sure why we need him

 

[Retroram52]

Maybe McVay has learned a very valuable lesson. I hope this story is true.

Sean McVay focused on 49ers, not Odell Beckham, but 'Les is always doing work behind the scenes'

Sean McVay had a big smile on his face when asked about Odell Beckham Jr., saying “Les is always doing work behind the scenes.”

This is Shelton's chance to show McVay that Allen is the wrong guy at Center.

Brian Allen dealing with elbow injury, Week 10 status unclear

Brian Allen has an elbow injury and it’s unclear if he’ll be able to play against the 49ers on Monday night.

That’s what I worry about. If DeSean was bitching about not getting enough targets, is Odell going to act the same way if he feels that he’s not getting enough either.

 

[Battlelyon]

So basically OBJ upgrades DeSean Jackson roster spot

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

There is only one football.

Can’t feed everyone.

 

[Jermaine133]

Sounds about right.... we stuck with this sorry sack of shit for now. Could have had that big boy that retro was talking about.

Instead we got a midget WR that didn’t rake long to hit IR.

I see Tavon 2.0 in the works.

 

[Jermaine133]

i dont mind the beckam signing since I've always liked him but where is he going to fit in at? If he don't get enough catches is he going to bitch and complain? On top... if Snead can pull Von and OBJ... why couldn't he find a C upgrade in the process ? It's cute having all these wrs but if your line can't handle the bull rush and better D lineman then it's not helping the cause.... On top this just means Mcvay will try and throw it 50 times now and only run 10.

 

[DJ]

What do you guys think about Beckham?

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

Yep, McVay was pass happy already.

Add OBJ to the mix, the Rams won’t need a RB because McVay will just throw all the time. Stafford’s arm might actually fall off.

Might as well run the McVay jumbo Retro. OL comes in to play RB to help pass block because McVay is dialing up 70 passing plays a game.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

I will say, when healthy, OBJ should garner attention from the defense and open things up a bit more.

Question is, will he be ok with that role and only seeing 5-6 targets a game?

Winning may help, we will see.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

But if they don’t fix the OL, a team full of pro bowl receivers won’t matter.
