This author does present some mounting statistics about Stafford that supports his contention that recently, we are getting a Stafford that is similar to 2018 Jared Goff and not better than. The dude doesn't quite provide the whole story but he is presenting some evidence to suggest we ain't getting the Stafford that McSnead may have envisioned when they traded for him.

I say, all the more power for going into the end of the season and into the post-season relying more on the developing Jumbo-based, running game and Michel that will take the pressure off Stafford so that he doesn't do some of the stupid shit that got us three straight losses in the month of November. Maybe that will help Stafford understand he is not a Detroit Lion anymore and doesn't have to play like one.

But you all can decide for yourselves.

Matthew Stafford: Nice to win when “less than spectacular” in pass game

The Rams clinched a playoff spot and moved into first place in the NFC West by beating the Vikings 30-23 on Sunday afternoon, but it was not one of quarterback Matthew Stafford‘s finest hours. Stafford was 21-of-37 for 197 yards, a touchdown, and three interceptions in the win. It was the fourth...

And Gay boy has now made 23 straight FGs.

With all of the issues each week at K, I'm thankful my two teams have great, young options in place (Rams' Matt Gay, Bills' Tyler Bass).

That begs the question; is the issue with the QB or McVay?

 

[Retroram52]

Now the Rams and this author are placing the blame of the screw-up the Rams did in the last draft at pick number 57 at the feet of Kevin Carberry who is also credited for doing a fabulous job replacing Kromer and coaching-up UDFAs like Alaric Jackson to step-in on a moment's notice and do a damn good job. Karberry is one of McVay's buddies that dates back to their days with the Redskins. He has done a helluva job this year with the O-line with a number of significant examples.

If Karberry did screw-up by not wanting the Rams to bring in new talent like Quinn Meinerz or Creed Humphrey when the Rams desperately needed a young stud Center as this article suggests, than McEgoSnead should have stepped-in with oversight and picked Humphrey over fragile boy who wasn't that impressive in college. They didn't, so Karberry is not the sole author of that stupidity as some might suggest.

See for yourselves.

Speaking of young HCs. John Madden passed-away today at the age of 85.

Arguably the biggest ambassador to the game

This guy may be a pretty darn good coach someday. He'll have to adjust to being more of an active spectator than he is now as a player but he's got all the right stuff. This is a good read from a guy who really has solidified our O-line for a while now. Seldom makes mistakes and is disciplined and foundational in his approach. Reminds me of Jackie Slater, alot only on the left side instead of the right side where Jackie spent his illustrious Rams career!

First person: Andrew Whitworth says COVID absences have strengthened Rams' resolve

Here was the Rams offensive line in 1979, our first Snooperbowl in the modern era. Whitworth could have easily fit with this bunch!

LT	Doug France
LG	Kent Hill
C	Rich Saul
RG	Dennis Harrah
RT	Jackie Slater

Badass to the core and would knock the crap out of people all game long.

Rams bring back TE Kyle Markway and place him on the PS. I hope they do the same with Jamir Jones.

Here are the coaches that may go this year. OSFBs loses coaches nearly every year and at the end of this season, several are predicted to be gone as well.

And here is a Jumbo dude we should bring to the Rams so that Carberry could train-up to be the Tackle eligible in the Jumbo. Let him score from the I. 6' 9, 380lbs!! Imagine getting run over by this literal truck! LOL!

Gaines has certainly come along way. Turns out he is a major defensive star. He may not play this week because of his surgery-repaired broken left hand. We got Noteboom and Whitworth back from the BWEA list. They brought Calais back he is hiding on the same virus sick list.

Went to see the American Underdog today. Don't miss this movie it was really good.

Saw it on the 25th.

They left some of his story out, but can’t fit everything into a 2 hr movie.

They did a pretty good job finding actors that look like the people they are portraying which isn’t always the case in Hollywood.

Took my 2 sons. My oldest told me he was buying the movie when it comes out.
