The Rams face Chicago this Sunday night in the LA Coliseum. By this time in the season last year, we were clipping along nicely but had a nightmare of a game in Chicago against these very Bears and our offense was exposed. A year later, our offense is in shambles with a very bad O-line, there is some very strange interactions going on between genius boy and his all-pro RB, McVay is still promising to fix a bad offense that was horribly exposed since the San Francisco game, and we have fallen further behind both Seattle and San Francisco in the NFC West.

Our chances of making the playoffs has now become tenuous and there is only a 16% chance of the Rams getting that chance this year. This Rams team is in trouble and unless McVay gets a very reality-based perception of what is going on, he is just whistling bullshit dixie about fixing anything, and there is a very good chance we may finish this year with a losing record.

When Gurley doesn't see the football in the fourth quarter of several games this year, only has 428 total yards this YEAR, and $100 mil QB gets yanked in a game that could have been easily won by the run for a back-up that did little, when the fake punt that was ordered-up by Fassel was so poorly executed that Pissburgh had time to adjust, when an O-line has been decimated with injuries to the point that FO is scrambling for back-up depth, this team, once deemed invincible, has been reduced to yesteryear playing performance without a hint hope of fixing anything that has been promised for weeks now.

This Rams team has not only been exposed as lame from top to bottom except for a defense that is playing very well, the snooperbowl set a course of destruction for the Rams the likes of yet has recovered.

There are a host of problems going on and I am not sure, this team will even mount a charge and just succumb to a losing season as if to make a statement that they could care less about dominating and winning football games seeking the ultimate prize they say they all care about. In many respects, I am glad I am working and can't watch this train wreck.

Besides all of the chaos going on on offense, another emerging problem is with Greg Zuerlein. He has now missed 5 FGs this year. This is more than any other year since he has been a Ram. The distance is not necessarily the problem. He has missed several 50+ yarders and a couple, less than 50 yards. Perhaps it is time to begin the search for another kicker who is consistent, younger, and can kick 50 plus yarder FGs with consistency.

Have a bad feeling about these next two games. I think these two will probably be the nail in the coffin for this season but really hope that I’m proven wrong and that this sparks them to get their asses in gear.

Problem is there aren't that many good kickers, having a good kicker is almost a luxury

retro, i don't want to give belichick the credit but some of it does belong to him but I'd say the bulk belongs to this same Chicago team that kicked the shit out of the rams last yr. They laid the blue print that if you sneeze on goff he'll fold like a lawn chair and hand you the game ....

Golden boy needs to get a backbone and toughen-up and earn his $100 mil with some runs out of the pocket and better passing when he does have the chance, Jermaine. Goff has a tendency to stare down his intended receiver tipping the defense of where he is going on a given pass play. He is getting better looking the receiver off to throw-off the opposing D but recently he just has regressed to numbers he had his rookie season under the drama queen.

Brandon Cooks has put his house in LA up for sale. Anything or nothing?

Alright a missed field goal gives us the ball. Have no idea who is playing wide receiver to night outside of Renyolds and Kupp. But maybe someone steps up tonight
