I’m not sure how one can conclude that Humphries is the starting LT after reading that article. I think the only think that comes out of that article is in all likelihood he will be on roster for the entire upcoming season.

We have a lot of money to help us down the line (currently 20m) when something comes up and we need it and if we don't need it by chance we have 20m more for FA next year.

What Pittsburg paid for Ramsey was stupid both in draft capital and his salary that deal is why I and most other Rams fans didn't want him. He is past his prime and still solid but nowhere near worth 26m. We all know we dodged a bullet.

Like I keep saying this team has this off-season and training camp to develop cohesion among the DB room Kendricks is back, Forbes has a full off-season plus to develop and Durant, Witherspoon and Williams plus backups will be way tighter than last year.

January 5th, 2026, 6:13 pm Re: Secondary January 5th, 2026, 6:13 pm Re: Secondary
there were a bunch of free agent cornerbacks we could've signed

As usual for 1 million bucks the Baltimore Ravens got Chidobe Awuzie. 77.9 pff. 6'0 202 great size

Avonte Maddox about 1 million bucks for Detroit 77.9 pff

isaiah Rodger's MIN 72.5 pff

I would've drafted Will Johnson out of Michigan drafted by the cardinal at pick number 47, he was as high as the second rated cornerback before his injury after his injury he hasn't played as well. He's 6'2. 205 and he runs a 4.44

there are experienced veterans out there also we could've traded for someone, if needed and McVey want to get better at cornerback they could

They killed us on 3rd down conversion rate and we turned the ball over 3 times. They had zero TO's. And we almost beat them. Tighten up on 3rd down and don't turn the ball over and we should win easy. Like all 5 of our loses - we beat ourselves. If we don't shoot ourselves in the foot we should be good to go...

January 9th, 2026, 1:34 pm Re: Rams D Scheme isn't the problem January 9th, 2026, 1:34 pm Re: Rams D Scheme isn't the problem

^^^^No- not the opinions that these guys stink. Cornell posted STATS that have our CB group in top 3 weeks 1-12. That seems crazy to me, and it's hard to square that with what we see/know. Leopards don't change their spots. They always sucked. Sp basically you are saying that the opposing teams- their QB- was just not good vs our guys. Masking the fact that they stink. It's all pretty weird to me. that stat line seems wrong.


Something clearly happened, and we don’t know what. From Weeks 1–10, our secondary was actually good — very good. Even Forbes was playing extremely well for about a month. They had a few bad games here and there, but overall they were a solid unit.

Then, from Weeks 10–17, everything collapsed. All of a sudden, they couldn’t cover anyone. Every CB started getting burned constantly, receivers were running wide open all over the field, and now they literally look — and rank — like a bottom-three unit in the league.

Losing one safety, even if it’s the guy wearing the green dot, simply cannot explain that kind of drop-off.

My guess is that some teams identified a specific weakness, put the tape out there, and then everyone else started copying it. That’s how this league works — teams study tape. Even McVay’s offense went through stretches in past years where it got figured out until he adjusted.

The problem is that it’s taking Shula far too long to find an answer. That is why I don't like a DC that is learning on the job. Like I’ve said before, our CBs lack top-end talent, but I know they can play better — because they already did from Weeks 1–10.

Well I’m going to counter and say this looks good on paper but……….

We were 7th in rushing this season. McVay clearly looks for a certain RB. Built like the 3 we have with great vision at the LOS. That my bet isn’t changing……..

OL starting 5 is very good. Well 4 n Shelton is ok. Absolutely need depth. I don’t buy in they need to be a certain size. They just need to be good. And I don’t think you find a lot of quality with this unit in FA. Draft is the route. And again look at the starters after 2026. FA is going to hit that unit hard after next year……….

We need CB, CB, CB. The roster is good going into next year other than the CB unit………

September 10th, 2025, 11:20 am Re: Think the Jared Goof story has ended September 10th, 2025, 11:20 am Re: Think the Jared Goof story has ended


Lame to refer to him as "Goof". He was a good Ram, lead the team to a SB, but was out-coached. Goff played with class, and departed with class.


I agree,

I think with the right head coach he could have been pretty special in LA. I thought McVay acted like the "Goof" on that one. What kind of head coach would publicly diminish a QB that was selected #1 and made it to the Super Bowl.... Ya Goff had some issues he needed to work out, but I really lost all my respect for McVay after that one. If I were a young QB, I would be hesitant about wanting to play for a coach like McVay.


And wouldn't you know it, the guy he wanted over Goff immediately won us a SB... In your world, the right coach doesn't do that huh?

they more than likely will beat N.O. but in the long run IMO they are done



The 49ers have that last-place schedule, overall it may prove soft enough for them to stay marginally in contention within the NFC West, so the Rams may need to sweep them again this season... :? ;) :geek:

We need to see some of Tre Brown and bring up AJ Green from the PS.
Both guys are known for their physical play. They may get beat, but they won’t get toss around like we saw Williams yesterday.
I can live with getting beat, I can’t stand lack of physical effort.

I have read all the threads and noted concern with secondary. But realistically what can the Rams do down the stretch to improve the group? What player out there would you want? At what cost? Or do you ride the horse you got and hope offense outscores all comers?

September 23rd, 2025, 7:32 am Re: Limmer?? September 23rd, 2025, 7:32 am Re: Limmer??
Part of my point was that Limmer got high marks last year at C. He did have a lot of penalties. Not sure bringing in Shelton was the answer- I would have rather had Limmer continue at that spot. He may not be the answer. It does look like we need to go heavy OL in draft now. Thought the OL was not gonna be a big issue unless the LT/RT went down. Now it's all about the middle 3. Back to the drawing board I guess. I HOPE we will look better with Dotson/Avila healthy. And I wish we kept Lampkin!

December 12th, 2025, 1:21 pm Re: Top QB rankings December 12th, 2025, 1:21 pm Re: Top QB rankings

Maye shows that it is possible to draft a quality franchise QB. No need to go after Burrows if we have another year or 2 with Stafford.


It is always possible, the question is how probable is it? There were 6 QBs drafted in round 1, and 11 in the 2024 class. I think the jury is still out on a lot of them, including Drake. One good year does not make a QB. Yes, he looks good but I am not ready to call him a franchise QB.

well they just switched the charge to a felony......the pictures of the old man in the hospital are beyond bad


I think they could even look at attempted murder charges, OC. From everything I have read from witnesses, I dont see how they don't come to at least a 3rd (and maybe even 2nd degree) murder charge. Mark apparently went ape $hit beating the man, while also slicing a hole in the mans face. And it says a hell of a lot when they have not charged the old fella w ANY charges.

Mark is toast.
