Rams Current News & Events!

[shopson67]

This is the same frikin' story that runs through this FO. We find some retread and hope that they have improved. When are we going stop dumpster diving?

I don't think he's a retread, he's still coming up through the system.

1991-95 - QB at Virginia (red-shirted as freshman)
2000 - first assistant job with the Jets (under his father Al Groh)
2001-05 - WR coach at Virginia (again under his father Al Groh)
2006-08 - OC at Virginia
2009 - offensive graduate assistant at Alabama
2010 - QB coach at Louisville
2011-12 - WR coach/recruiting coordinator at Alabama (replaced Cignetti)
2013-15 - WR coach with the Bears

It seems his father brought him along much too quickly at Virginia.

IDK Shopson. We are always seemingly finding projects rather than the top tier guys who never show up at Rams headquarters wanting to come and work for the Rams.

 

[SJ76]

Groh was the Bears WR coach.


Is Alshon coming next?

 

[Retroram52]

Hope so SJ76.

 

[Battlelyon]

Groh was the Bears WR coach.


Is Alshon coming next?

Groh was the Bears WR coach.


Is Alshon coming next?

You beat me to it! I was thinking the same thing!

Are there any top tier guys out there? I don't know who's available...

 

[Retroram52]

Not right now shopson but I was referring more to past experiences when coaches were available.

Former Chicago Bears running backs coach Skip Peete is the new running backs for the Los Angeles Rams, according to a source.

Peete was out of football this past season after coaching the Bears’ running backs from 2013–14. He inherits Rams star running back Todd Gurley, who was a Pro Bowl selection as a rookie after rushing for 1,106 yards with 10 touchdowns on 229 carries this past season.

Prior to the Bears, the 52-year-old Peete was the running backs coach for the Dallas Cowboys from 2007–12 and the Oakland Raiders from 1998–2006. He was UCLA’s running backs coach from 1996–97 after coaching wide receivers at Rutgers in ’95.

Peete was also Michigan State’s running backs coach from 1993–94. He got his start in coaching as a graduate assistant at Pittsburgh in ’88. Peete coached Pitt’s wide receivers for three seasons before moving to running back coach for his final two years with the program.

A Phoenix native, he played wide receiver at Arizona from 1981–82 before finishing his collegiate career at Kansas in ’86.

Peete’s father, Willie, is a former longtime NFL and collegiate coach, and his brother, Rodney, played quarterback in the NFL for 16 seasons.

The Rams relocated to Los Angeles earlier this month. They went 7–9 this past season under coach Jeff Fisher, who has 27-36-1 mark in his four years with the franchise.

I believe we are in pretty good shape CAP wise. Sure we have to re-sign some of our own guys. But I would like to see us get rid of these Titan rejects and bring in a couple of studs like Jefferies. This will help our qb as well as our run game.

MOST EMBARRASSING THINGS I'VE EVER DONE

• 2014, Charlottesville- Drove away from Bellair market with my Toyota 4Runner connected to the gas pump.
  
  
• 2015, Las Vegas - Stumbled back to my room at the Wynn and set my alarm to watch my beloved UVA hoops play Michigan state in the tourney. Woke up in a haze, realized I had the time zones wrong. hoos down 7 with 40 seconds left. With defeat imminent I fired up a tweet thanking Akil Mitchell for a great season. Mitchell played his last game in 2014.
  
  
• 2015, St Louis - went to see Star Wars. Bumped my head on the cardboard display above the soda machine real hard. It wobbled for 4 seconds. Really loud.
  
  
• 2016, Atlanta airport - Before takeoff, got up to go to the bathroom. Bumped my head on the tv above the aisle really hard.
  
  
• 2016, over the Atlantic - On a flight from Atlanta to St. John, got up to use the bathroom and bumped my head on the tv above the aisle moderately hard. Heard laughter.
  
  
• 1990ish, Los Angeles - My dad and I met his childhood hero, Charlton Heston. I said "you were great in Spartacus." Kirk Douglas was in Spartacus.
  
  
• 1992, Los Angeles - scored my bucket of the game in the opposing basket.
  
  
• 1996, Charlottesville - Hit my first home run of my little league career. Did not touch home plate. Allegedly. Called out.
  
  
• 1999, Charlottesville - After pleading with my JV coach to allow me to carry the football, I took the handoff and tripped for a three yard loss.
  
  
• 2013, St. Louis - purchased a 1996 impala SS with low miles. Got a stopwatch that made the stop watch noise. Played the drive soundtrack repeatedly in my new impala. My second day with the vehicle during rush hour, I accelerated getting on the highway and swerved into the median. Impala totaled. Created heavy traffic.
  
  
• 1995, Virginia - Was singing Stevie Wonder really loud and my mom's friend walked in.
  
  
• 2004, Charlottesville - UVA football freshman rookie show. No one laughed at my skit. Booed offstage.
  
  
• Los Angeles, 1990 - pooped in best friend's pool. Blamed it on dog.
  
  
• 2006, Charlottesville - Phone goes off in lecture hall. Chamillionaire ringer.
  
  
• 2003, Charlottesville - took this photo in front of my friend's dad's pickup truck for Rivals.com.
  
  
• 2009, St. Louis - Signing autographs after a game. Homeless guy walks up. "How many sacks do you have so far?" "4" Goes from smile to confused look. "What the fuck?" Walks away.

Hilarious, hope Long stays a Ram for the right price.

Ex-Rams coach: 'Ridiculous' T.O. is HOF finalist

Yeah, just heard about this...I think the HOF didn't want to have four "modern era" Rams on the Ballot at the same time(Warner,Pace,Bruce,Holt)

Love Holt and Bruce, but Harrison and TO have huge career numbers that are tough to ignore. It's nice to Martz to defend his guys, but all the general public looks at are career catches, yards, and TDs (and media highlights).

At this point, I don't think even Dallas can touch him. He's a trainwreck.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep, Manziel is certifiably nuts and he is one of these millennials that can't handle criticism on a large scale. He is on the fast track to becoming the next Lawrence Phillips or the RB from Baltimore that can't seem to get away from gold-digging bitches who cry foul when they get drug around by their hair and then marry the guy outright to retain that cash flow!
