Hey Morris

[chris]

Sunday I’ll make this short Instead of 5 yard cushion how about the CB get up in Samuel and Kittle face hard jam at line and stay tight ,because if Morris has the same game plan as he did last time when we played the 49ers we will lose. I can’t wait to see you gone!

What? Morris has done a fine job especially as of late.

Morris will not have been deemed to have done a good job by me until his D shows they can shut down a team not missing starters, stars and is not ranked in the lower half of the league Offensively.
Every contending team we've played has had good days vs our D.
That's all that's in the playoffs, great offenses and he will get his chance to show me something now.. beginning this week which has the feel of a Post season game and actually is for SF, really..

Go Rams....

Yall do know we lost to the 49ers twice with Staley as DC and they didn't even have their starting qb at the time.

Morris defense played the Packers better than Staley.

Morris is not perfect but cmon.

They had their Starting QB the 1st meeting, nice try though...
Yes I remember how the highly touted Staleys over rated Defense had the lead and let Nick Mullins drive TWICE in the 4th Q for FG's and an eventual 23-20 9er W.
Same defense that let the 0-13 Jets led by Sam Darnold beat us because they drove for...
74 yards, 13 plays, in 7:12 for a TD
72 yards, 11 plays, in 6:30 for a TD
72 yards, 10 plays, in 4:30 for a FG
The last drive when we needed a stop and the ball, but they gave up yards, 1st downs, points and clock..
BTW That's 1/3rd of the game right there that they dominated the vaunted Rams D on just 3 drives...
Everyone gave Staley and the D a pass and endlessly hammered Goff for it... to this day.. AFAIC he didn't play well that day but many Rams didn't including Coach's... and the D.
For the record, I was never in the Staley camp and posted as much. Last years D got lauded for a schedule that saw them play virtually every shitty offense in the league and half their games against 2nd and 3rd string QB's...

So if Staley who statistically had the Rams as the #1 defense is overrated maybe your expectations for a defense are way too high.

Playing defense is as hard as it's every been in history so points will be scored. I think you are to hard on DCs.

Maybe so, but NO.1 ranked D's never give up what they did to some bad teams last year. Look at Staleys D this year? 1 Opportunistic, fortunate year and accolades galore including a HC job.... If he's such a genius how come the Chargers are so bad on D?
Steel Curtain, No Name Defense, Fearsome Foursome, Purple People Eaters, Doomsday Defense, Orange Crush... etc were all elite defenses that didn't let bad teams do that to them.. multiple times..
Of course different era, strategies and such.. nobody used prevent in those days or soft zones to my recollection..

First of all Morris had a healthy Donald against GB. One should not avoid mentioning Staley didn’t if we are going to hold that against Staley……….,

One is wrong not to recognize that this D has played well the last month or so and that Morris has adjusted and allowed his CB to play more man which plays into their skill set better…………..

One is also wrong to think based on what we have seen on the field that this D has shown that they will be fine in the playoffs against an offense with multiple good WR’s. And that these offenses won’t exploit Rapp and Reeder in their game plans. Until Morris shows that he has an answer for such then one has a right to be concerned still with this D………….

No different than the equal concern with Stafford and turnovers. It’s not being hard it’s realizing if not corrected this team goals will fall short this year……….

Watch SF and their plan with Kittle come Sunday. Who do you think they will be targeting with him………….

Yea I think people forget that other teams watch film too. I highly doubt that Staley would have had the same success even if he brought back the full defense from 2020. Team are normally quick to adjust in this league. So for people to expect Morris to have the same success as Staley with different players, using Staley's scheme, with the league having a full off-season to find ways to work against it was always a pipe dream.

I think Morris has done a fine job and even though I don't agree with all of the off coverage stuff, the way he uses Ramsey, the fact he let practice squad or lower teir cbs get killed on the outside, or his prevent defense to close out halves.

We seem to be built to play with a lead and force turnovers (even though we haven't forced nearly enough turnovers).

The best thing about Morris defense is points allowed which I feel is even better than the numbers show because he gets credited for all the bad spots and points caused by our offensive woes.

Good points Tim...

My fear with this years team is the D looks like it did against the 9ers, 11 minute drives, no stops...playoffs one and done ...
Hopefully they will learn from the first meeting with SF and make them earn their yardage.. that imo is how you beat them

And I also hope they picked up on the way they use Deebo on the jet sweeps. They killed us with that in SF also...
Sounds like you have the same qualms as I do... lets see if the necessary adjustments are made on D...

And I'm with you on the D getting the blame for all points against. What about Pick 6's, fumble recovery returns, PR/KR, and those times when our O turns it over in our red zone and the D holds them to 3... shame that goes against them... but that's how it is

telling you right now the Rams will win this weekend. Especially if Lance is playing

I'll go you one better and predict a win regardless of who the 9er QB is...

I'm betting Sean has had enough of KS gettin the best of him... and it ends now.
What better payback then to eliminate them.... Go Saints...

And all the games that can directly affect the match-up, except for the Boys game on Saturday... the Cards, Saints and Bucs games are all at the same time...
So there's knowing nothing going in.. everyone will play their best and play hard... in all 4 of those games...

very confident with a Rams win

[Slickjack]

Bottom line is we need to get tough on Samuel and Kittle , those boys run all over us and I’m really tired of seeing it

[Cornell29]

I know that Lance can run, but I rather play Lance. Lance doesn't have the fast release. The fast release by Rodgers, JG etc is what hurts the rams defense. Especially since the rams keep playing a soft coverage.

Lance at this time isn't any better then Huntley (Ravens qb) currently is. He will hold the ball longer then he should which plays into the rams defense hands. He doesn't have the quick release that JG has.

he is also a rookie and because of that will be prone to make bad decisions . As long as we WIN TOP , we will WIN the game . We can't allow 11 minute drives that ends with 7 points anymore .

we are going to crush them. Lance can not move the ball. our D will eat him up
