The D and Stafford

It seems like teams have finally found our defensive weaknesses.
Our corners are not good tacklers other than JR5
Rapp is horrible, Fuller is average, neither make plays very often
Both linebackers are very bad, PFF graded them in the 40’s. Reeder is incredibly slow and unathletic
Our DLs are picking a side and opening up run lanes and pulling the back from the side, even plays with penetration result in positive gains
Very few third and longs
Rahim makes the short pass to easy
By half time the guys are gassed
Stafford is stressing the system even more, you can’t throw a lot of pick sixes, fumbling inconveniently

I think Reeder might excel as a strong side backer, but not as a middle, the Rams scheme uses him in the middle, not sure about that…

Lets break it down:
The offense scored 28- respectable. The D let up 26 (less the pick 6 and fumble inside 20 went for -10 points on the O). So we did not get blown out, and the Pack are a great NFC team.
Stafford and his 2 TO accounted for 10 points. Unacceptable. He also had 2MORE picks that were just dropped by GB. Stafford was missing throws all day, and connected on a bunch as well. Just Hot and cold all day- and against GB, you have to be NO COLD. He still threw for 3 TD and put up 28.
Defense- we are glaring bad at ILB. Reeder was awful- get him out more (we need Hollins). Rapp cannot cover, DW misses tackles as with the rest not named Ramsey. N.Scott needs to friggin catch that INT and there would be no punt- and no muffed punt. Morris still stinks(this won't change). There was no pressure on AR. Not enough
ST- no way to put this other than pitiful. We all saw the game. ST was so beyond bad- right up to that joke of an onside kick. Hekker cannot kick anymore for some reason. ST coach needs to be fired- Kupp needs to fair catch all punts. Kickoffs I have no idea- I don't want SM getting hurt, so rather have anyone else.
Packers are a great team. We need to move on and win the rest. They are in show me mode far as I'm concerned. I don't expect another win all season until I see some change. 1 Positive I saw was McVay running more, and running on 3rd and shorts.

This years team isn't as good as last years team. That much is pretty clear. Goff was nothing but a game manager but that dink and dunk approach worked better overall than this big play or bust approach. Our defense is on the field all day. Stafford is just like how he was in Detroit, talented but reckless. Sorry Terry Bradshaw, I knew better than you. He isn't so good.

With Donald, Floyd & Miller all playing I certainly didn't expect Rodgers to be sacked just the ONCE all game??
Donald, as usual, I could see was being double-teamed, the other two though, they couldn't beat me Ma yesterday?
The stockpiling of talent, so far, has had an adverse effect on this team.
It's proper backfired on McSnead..!!
Without a Patriots'esq season turnaround, the exit door needs to be shown to the majority of the coaching staff. Starting with Morris & the clown that runs the ST?
If the Rams don't make it to the promised land, what on earth does Snead have to work with next season? I think he may need to fire himself too, cause enough is enough on going all in year after year.

What about the 7 the Rams got from the Packers muffed punt? If you're going to credit us then it should be both ways.

Reeder and Rapp are just flat out disasters. Neither should be playing in the NFL. Whitworth needs to retire. Obviously, I could ago on...
And the Ram's first draft pick for this season was TUTU???? WTF? WTF? WTF?

Stafford's Fumble, 90% Whitworth's fault.
Brooklyn, you can't throw pick 6s in three consecutive weeks, ands lets not forget how lucky we are there weren't more. Stafford is crazy eratic throwing the ball, its not helping that we have way too many drops on accurate passes, but he's playing pretty bad by any standard. I can't imagine he's not hurt, he hasn't scrambled in what seems like 3 games, he no longer slides or rolls IDK

Stafford is playing next week so let's stop with the nonsense about him not playing. they are paying this guy too much money for him to sit. finally somebody on TV went off on Morris, Dan Orvlosky. He said " what the hell are they doing with JR?" Went on to say the schemes are just plain dumb and nobody is getting fooled with their defensive packages. A better pass rush honestly fixes a lot of these issues but it still doesn't solve the issue against the run. just need bigger bodies on the DL

Stafford pretty much is Goff at this point. He's basically a statue back there. He's not even sliding in the pocket anymore. His mobility is shot to pieces, he's stumbling on hand offs and never moves outside the hash marks whatsoever.
He's sailing passes all game, starting very cold (usually a sign of some sort of ailment), missing wide open receivers.
To tell us that there's not an issue is insulting our intelligence. This isn't the same QB that played the first 8 games. It's more than just playing badly, the drop off is too alarming.
