Another loss, another set of questions, another list of disappointments.
The Rams came out of the locker room and were more prepared than any game this season. They quickly moved downfield after a touchback to the Packers' 28, setting up a key 3rd and 11. The Rams took a timeout to ensure the personnel on the field had the proper playcall...an inside draw.
It was gutless, conservative and entirely uninspiring, and it sums up this team pretty well.
A team that plays like everything is ok. A coaching staff that plays it safe when everything has gone wrong all season (in what is no longer a small enough sample size to write it off as an anomaly). An offense that moves in spurts but makes just enough mistakes to ensure that nothing comes of it. A defense with little DT talent, ridiculously low OLB athleticism and an undeservedly gaping hole at corner that presents too many ways for offenses to take advantage.
Some silver linings and a look ahead after the jump.
Maybe the most heartening aspect of this game was the semblance of an offense. The running game was incredibly effective, with Steven Jackson going for 96 yards and averaging 5.3 per carry. Cadillac Williams contributed to the effort well. The mix of Danario Alexander, Lance Kendricks and Greg Salas looked effective today at times, although Kendricks' impact was heavy earlier an non-existent late.
Defensively, the Rams lost this game entirely in the 2nd quarter. In fact, they only gave up 3 points in the first, third and fourth combined. Of course the Rams didn't score at all in those three periods and only put up 3 to Green Bay's 21 in the second, but that shouldn't mean the defensive effort should be ignored.
So now what? The Rams travel to Dallas (in a game I would go to if my daughter weren't being baptized next Sunday...thanks for checking the schedule on that one, wife) next week and welcome New Orleans in two weeks time. Yes, there is a realistic possibility that the Rams could open NFC West play in Arizona in week 9 with an 0-7 record.
Let this one settle. I expect enough Rams will find some positives about the best team in the NFL right now to be satisfied with this one. At the same time, it's yet another loss for a team that has yet to win a single game. And with each L comes more scrutiny. More pressure. And less satisfaction for a coaching staff and front office that has yet to deliver on the promises of 2011.

Man I could have gone to the Rams game...
if my friend who is friends with a Cowboy cheerleader got me tickets… FAIL.

I live in the UK, so any chance to get free board and tickets and only pay for flights would be worth it regardless of result.

That attitude will send the Rams out of St. Louis ;)
Two things about me will never change. I will always root for the Rams, and I will always root against the Niners.
Positive
Rams defended the run well. Defense played well overall, especially considering the opponent. Offense is clearly badly out of sorts. Kendricks had another heartbreaking drop. I wish we could have seen what this team would have been with OTAs.
By now, they've gotten all the reps they woul have in OTA's
And the lack of training an mini camps has effected no one but us according to your theory there

And we looked a hell of a lot better offensively this week than we have in any previous week.
Against the Super Bowl champs no less. But y’all probably thought we should’ve won this one.
WRs looked competent today. Salas was as good as Amendola ever has looked (only an n of 1) so that’s a silver lining for sure.

Spags ain't gonna make it through the year
And trading away a 3rd for Lloyd is looking like an obvious choice
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:09 PM CDT via mobile reply actions
Lloyd update:
The Denver Post reports that the Broncos have not received offers of more than a seventh-round pick in exchange for Brandon Lloyd.
“Understandably, the Broncos have rejected such proposals,” writes beat reporter Mike Klis, who first broke the story that Lloyd was on the trade block. Klis now suggests that the Broncos will keep Lloyd, assuming no teams step up with a better trade offer. Talks will pick up as Tuesday’s deadline nears. FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer reported Sunday morning that the Patriots, Rams, and 49ers have shown interest in the contract-year wide receiver.

Fuck you Devaney, stop low-balling teams
No wonder no one will trade with you, a 3-5 round pick is completely reasonable.

I know, but the Pats and 49ers don't need to get Lloyd, there just checking if they could add him as a luxury
We have a dire need for Lloyd, and Devaney is acting like he seriously thinks the Broncos would trade him for a 7th
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:13 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
wrong.
Anything above a 5th is unreasonable.
Low ball, get em desperate then get him for a 6th.
Boldin was dealt for a 5th.
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
It's not unreasonable when they are dealing him to us
We need him, so he is worth more. Supply and demand. And it’s not like they have to trade him, if they don’t get what they want then they keep a Pro Bowl reciever for Tebow to have this year
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:15 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
you don't play all your cards first.
closer to deadline, price goes down.
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
That's if they have to trade him
It’s not like he’s a malcontent who they have to move. Also, when Devaney still pays a 3-5 rounder for him (if we get him) then all Devaney did was waste time for Sam and Lloyd to work together
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:18 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
They kinda do
He is no use with Tebow at QB, they will be run only. Lloyd doesn’t want to get killed by Tebow’s inaccurate throws, and they’d rather a 6th round/7th round pick over nothing at the end of the year.
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
Then he will walk at the end of the season and they will get nothing in return.
Then they will draft a receiver after us in next year’s draft.
Yeah, but Tebow gets the luxury of a guy he can throw to when things break down this year
Trust me, keeping Lloyd the rest of the year and getting nothing is better than getting a 6th or lower

If they play for the Rams, and arent named Sam, or SJax
Then I wouldn’t call what there doing playing

Interestingly enough our defense spent very little
time on the field. Either they stopped them or gave up a quick touchdown. also, our offense had time of possession and moved the ball.

They ran it out on the last possession,
but they also went deep and threw an INT in the 4th quarter

well you can only take a knee at the end of the game but
you can also focus on maintaining possesion wether you score or not if you get a big lead early and know that the other team can’t score.
Didn't look like the Packers slowed down or eased up to me.
Until the last possession. Regardless, we did a pretty damn good job stuffing the run all day. Only 3 yards a carry for the packers.
Two things about me will never change. I will always root for the Rams, and I will always root against the Niners.
its annoying when Red Zone offense has been an issue for years and it shows no signs of improving.
we need to get that big play from further out into the endzone.
Nick Miller is fast right? utilize him lol
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
Nick Miller?
i hope you are joking. This is new offesnse than last year. Blame lockout for redzone problems, unless still cant score 2-4 weeks from now
@thebenlloyd
Dude everyone else was locked out
Not just us, it’s a problem with the team, not the lockiu
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:25 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
other factors
The fact we only have one playmaker and changed coridinators hurts us more than other teams and its not like we had much to build on from last year offensivly
@thebenlloyd
I was joking
but indicative of the need for home run threats. We need to create big plays because Red Zone is a death knell.
Lockout is a huge part of it, but it needs to look better every week, but it isn’t.
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
Positive
Petits and Salas made an impact on game. Ran ball well. McDaniels will figure out how to get us to score, the guy isnt suddenly a idiot. team deffinatly played alot better than last week. They NEED to make the next step and start scoring. the season isnt lost
@thebenlloyd
I agree with everything
except the last sentence… unless you are talking about preparing the team for next year.

If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
would have to say
had big hopes for Kendricks but MSW definitely bigger disappointment i mean this guy had 13 TD’s last year from David garrard of all people. and cant even catch on our team no reason for that kind of drop off at least kendricks is a rookie!
and Jason Smith i mean that guy should be paying us for making me pull my hair out every week
what happened?
I have to watch the bucs game

thanks
come on LIONS!!
Megatron don’t have a TD yet
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
only letting them score 24? and Sam throws for 300+ yards, awesome
WRs catching the ball, awesome.
Offensive line…..as I’ve said about the WRs early in the game, if I can combine them into one guy…..I’d shoot them in the face and start over.
Sam made mistakes too, he had salas WIDE OPEN in the endzone and his INT was a shitty throw, gotta throw that higher for the much bigger DX
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
idk about the catching
Kendricks with a couple of drops, DX had a huge one, another weird lateral/fumble/drop with Cadillac

This the line looked better
Against one of the best wrs and we moved the ball pretty well, just sucked in the RZ.

I saw the one where he missed Salas
The problem is he is getting sacked-syndrome this year, doesn’t expect to have enough time to go through all his reads. Play also could have been a designed one-read play, although unlikely
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:27 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
that's true
watching him compared to Rodgers was ridiculous. He did his taxes, made a cappuccino and took a shower before throwing some of those balls
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
To a certain
degree but in today’s game he had no reason to have sack syndrome. That’s like giving Kendricks a bye when someone is on his back. You get paid to make the play especially as a franchise QB. I do believe in Sam but he has growing pain as do some of the young WR on the team. He has to take a page out of Rogers book and step up out of a collapsing pocket to buy some extra time. He is a complete statue in the pocket. All young QBs are abused in their first few years because the DC load up and come after them.
Just to be clear
You really think Sam should’ve thought “I actually made it two plays, I should just take my time” nope. He’s wrecked for the year, unless you get Lloyd and a real replacement for Smith. He can still come back, but he is done for the year, might as well sit him to save him from permanent Carr-ization
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 3:37 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
Just
like I said I thought overall the game today was better than any game they played this year. If you’re telling me Lloyd being on the field makes Sam not throw the pick in the endzone and allows him to go to Salas for a TD then get Lloyd here. I have faith in Sam but when you sign a record breaking contract and are a franchise QB expectations are high regardless of talent or lack thereof on the team. I make no excuses for any other player so I won’t him either. It’s easy to point out all the for sure TDs the WRs dropped this year just keep it level. I do nt see how getting Lloyd all of the sudden will make Sam forget how many time she has been hit if you say he is done for the year.
if he's ruined for the year, he's a bust
you need to accept that sam can and does make mistakes
it’s not all his fault, but the dude is not perfect

I guess folks really were right this offseason.
We didn’t need to find a receiver in free agency. At least, if THAT’S the receiver we were going to find in free agency.
Oh we needed a WR alright.
The FO just had no plans on paying top dollar for one of the better ones.

The only real option would have been Sidney Rice, and he’s been both lackluster and injured this season (save for the Cardinals game in September)

Anybody.
The price for V. Jackson was ridiculous, but I think right now I would take it. Our young WRs showed some promise today though, so there is hope. And DX showin flashes again. They all still suffer from the dropsies when we need them most. So frustrating.

If we played
the way we did in this game today in the Eagles, Giants, or Skins game we probably win those. The Pack is the best team in the NFL. I am encouraged by the play in today’s loss. The OL played much better overall. The make shift DBs played ok. I thought overall the WR did well. SJAX played well.
Realizing that the Pack D hasn't actually been all that great, right?

i might be wrong but i remember hearin on nfl network
that failed tackles usually become servicable guards. and if we cant afford an OT in the top of the draft, how will alshon or blackmon be any cheaper?

Maybe they could but keep in mind around 4 years ago smith was a TE
Offensive tackle cost alot more than wide recivers. I just wanna see if smith doesnt improve, rather than throwing away all that money so quick
@thebenlloyd
o yea i agree i would only put him at gurad if he would agree to take a pay cut
but if the oline improves then yea take a WR, but top picks almost always cost big money either way. no way smith was a TE 4 years ago tho. he has been with us forr 3 and he was certainly a tackle when we drafted him

this game was different
Playing the best team in the NFL to this point, shut them out for the entire second half and juts 3 points in the first quarter, sustained spurts of offense (but NO ability to finish). Against this team, silver linings are worth something.
Put it like this – that’s the least points Green Bay has scored all year. Not the most demoralizing loss.

Broyles is a no go for me.

I don’t doubt he’s smarter and works harder than Gilyard, but physically Mardy looked outmatched in the NFL and he has much better tools and versatility.

Why Broyles?
We already have Broyles types all over. What is he going to do? And why are you so high on Lloyd?

probably cut Smith and let Kalil/Saffold work itself out in camp & preseason. Smith still has time though to prove himself. 11 games is long time.

Ha, JK, Mardy had the short bus deliver him to the stadium before games
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
Mardy was a solid route runner
and was much more athletic. Hands wise Broyles has him but Danario’s hands were perfect in college, likewise Pettis, Kendricks and Salas. A lot of Broyles’ grabs wide open in space. Won’t happen in the NFL.
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
idk I feel like in college Mardy dominated more
because of his skills in space and YAC than route running

ya
but you see Broyles go down easily in college, MArdy break tackles, then see Mardy get touched in the NFL and drop.
I think transition for Broyles will not be smooth. Also doesn’t offer anything we don’t have in Salas and Pettis who are bigger.
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
I personally want playmakers, so a 3 yard dump off can become a huge gain.
I’m tired of seeing us move steadily up the field but not able to crack a big play for a TD outside of Sjax
http://brotherspork.wordpress.com/
and that's where your tweet comes in
Broyles isn’t a huge playmaker threat. He’s got above-average (AA) acceleration, AA hands, AA body control, AA top speed. Nothing elite.

Ok, my 4 are Jeffry, Blackmon, Floyd and Broyles
Jeffery and Blackmon are top 10 picks, so we can only have 1. I’m not touching Floyd and his problems. As an OU fan, your not gonna convince me that Broyles can’t be as good as Welker as a slot guy, I’m sorry. Easily better than Danny in the slot cause of speed. As for why I love the idea of Lloyd, cause I saw him play at a Pro Bowl level with McD last year

Hehe, yeah if you've got Boomer with your Sooner

Id say I'm not as bad as some when it comes to Broyles
I just think if he adds some lbs he is Welker 2.0. He’d be bigger, faster, tougher (in my opinion), and have the same kind of “not gonna let you care about my size” attitude. Most Ou’s won’t admit he isn’t gonna be the beat ever. As for Stills, he is minnie Ocho to me. He has the same size, speed, strength, and a touch of the flair that Ocho had in his prime (and he was pretty good in his prime). Not nearly the diva though (despite his appearance)
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 4:02 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
faster down field?
Maybe. But short burst acceleration? I gotta go with Welker. And yeah, he’s got a great attitude and work ethic. He can be a nice component, but I just don’t like the translation of his game to the NFL. What’s the deal with Trey Metoyer? Is he on the team? Did he RS?

Mizzou aint good enough to land him, Arkansas hasn’t produced any NFL player like ever that I know of, Bama would have to cheat (which they will) to have a shot. We smoked Texass, and we use so many WR’s he’d play from Day 1, with Stills leaving him in single coverage. I’ve also gone ahead and reserved a Mario Edwards Jr jersey

How you think Landry staying in school effects the draft?

His spirit runs strong with the spirit of the buffalo.
It’s funnier when you say it with a native accent. And when its a joke.

Just noticed the article about Eddie Royal being available. I want to comment on this:
He might have more value as a kick and punt return man
Please, for the love of everything that is good, discard this silly idea. Being a returner is EXACTLY the problem with Royal. He is not built to take the combined pounding of the return game and offense. It completely diminishes his effectiveness.
Ask any knowledgeable Broncos fan and they will tell you: Royal is a great receiver; good hands and excellent route running, but every year since his excellent rookie year (91 receptions) he has been bogged down by some nagging injury (groin, etc.) and fatigue because the coach insists on making him return kicks when he isn’t suited to the double-duty. You will be told how every week they shout at the screen demanding Royal not be returning kicks.
If you are unconvinced of his talent, note this: Royal’s 91 catches as a rookie is second all-time for a rookie, behind Anquan Boldin, and he is the 4th-fastest player in NFL history to reach 100 career receptions.
Sorry to go OT here, but I felt it was important to disspell this ignorance.

Loved seeing him in that offense with Cutler Marshall and Scheffler
I concur, he’s too good to waste on Special Teams.

So, since I'll be Sam Bradford for halloween
I have the Jersey, navy football pants and navy socks, ping pong paddle, gonna make a cardboard pads-thingy (the normal pads are way too much, and I don’t wear my hockey chest pads when I’m playing), what else does the outfit need?
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
Blood on the pants
And a crowd of fans blaming you for how bad your line and wr’s suck

You need 11 defenders draped on you while steven buys a bus ticket out of St.Louis and your WR's are covered by 5 year olds.

my gf will be a ref, so she'll just throw flags at me for illegal "getting super shitfaced and being a rams' fan" penalty

Your GF can also be Mc Daniels saying "Don't worry the O-line will block this time. I promise."

i wouldn't want her to be a douche for halloween
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
Fine then she can just use McDaniels.

True
What’s sounds better to any guy: GF in a ref outfit, or dressed like an angry douche in a hoodie
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 5:13 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
Or she could be Jason Smith
And just stand there while you get raped

We would have all committed suicide by now like some cult.

hahaha
that’s funny; but she’s not a giant black guy and I don’t wanna be raped :(
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
It would take a lot of commitment
And I’m just gonna take a guess and say that your GF is probably a more intense person than Smith, so that’s another reason it wouldn’t work
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 5:16 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
I think your GF could pull it off. She is probably a good actress.

Hey man
That’s taking it too far, don’t beat a guy while he’s down about his team by calling his gf a porn star

If they found the tuck rule for brady to win a game they can find that in the rule book. I promise.

but I'm serious
I’m not buying a helmet, they’re way too expensive, I guess I could get my hair darker; there has to be something else
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
Just stay home eat candy and call 5 year olds free loaders while you bang your GF. Simple.

haha
you guys are killing me, I’m actually laughing, between you and King Sam
If anyone cares what I have to say on Twitter: @Sergey_Konyshev
I second his idea
Halloween costumes should end when banging a girl becomes an option, its in the guy rulebook
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 5:18 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
Quick question: does he yell at the 5 year olds while simultaneously banging his gf
Or are the two activities separate?
by King Sam Rules! on Oct 16, 2011 5:20 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
Well unless he wants too give those kids a show then separate.

Today we saw why...
The Rams were half a game out of the playoffs last year. Better days are indeed ahead for St. Louis. Keep the faith, guys.

yea I'm not for that.
He’s not as immobile as the likes of Rivers or Bledsoe, but I don’t want him running anywhere. His strength is passing, that’s what we need him to do.
Two things about me will never change. I will always root for the Rams, and I will always root against the Niners.
Great Game
As a Packers fan, I thoroughly enjoyed reading TST this week leading up to the game. You all are very classy fans and the Rams are a team on the rise, IMO. It’s easy to see that a lot of the pieces the rams need to be successful are in place, and I think that with experience and maturity, your team is going to look great in coming years. If not for a few costly mistakes, this would have been a much closer game.
Effort....
From Yahoo sports Winners & Losers for the weekend…..
LOSERS: The listless effort from the St. Louis Rams’ defensive line against Green Bay. Aaron Rodgers(notes) is great, perhaps the best quarterback in the game right now. However, there were times when the Rams’ line played with no effort, a slap in the face to head coach Steve Spagnuolo. On one play, Rodgers scrambled for nearly seven seconds before having to run. On the next play, Rodgers broke away from two tackles for a completion. That’s ridiculous.
2011 Rams.....
So far this season, the Rams are worst than the 0-16 Lions from a few years ago….. At least that team tried! Gave 100% effort every game. The Rams have packed it in.
