Los Angeles Rams Training Camp: Aug. 11 Practice Recap

Show you can win more than 7 games and maybe people won't have to read into it

Jeff Fisher was asked about his "7-9" speech on Hard Knocks: "People can read into it whatever they want," he said.

Save the frustration for game day fellas.

Felt like #Rams practice was a little more geeked up today. Realize it's just preseason, but a game looming jacks things up a bit

What she said....

Rams coach Jeff Fisher says typically they'd play starters 2-3 series in an exhibition game. Rams play Cowboys Saturday.

This sounds a lot like the 'vanilla' schemes Fisher referred to this time last year

Fisher says they will keep things basic against the Cowboys. Wants to see fundamentals - tackling, etc.

Yet there's this.

Fisher says preseason special teams is always ramped up a bit because those are the guys who want to show they can make the team.

So we're 'ramped up' and 'basic' at the same time?

Injuries

I haven't seen anything new come across the ticker. Hopefully Rob Havenstein and E.J. Gaines are on the mend

Jared Goff

Shorter (90 minutes) main practice for Rams today, their last before Saturday vs Dallas. Second-team work for Goff, one INT.

If he's ready, why isn't he starting?

Asked it he was ready for Saturday, Jared Goff responds "Yeah, I think so."

Not sure what to make of this - except that the Rams seem keen to soak up as much media time as possible.

He's a good sport...

Jared Goff seems to be taking the storylines that were developed around him on Ep. 1 in Hard Knocks in stride. Says it's been fun.

— Lindsey Thiry (@LindseyThiry) August 11, 2016

But has his limits like the rest of us

Jared Goff, while completely polite, seemed as though he’d had enough of the Hard Knocks questions, which made two of us.

Defense

Why is Sensabaugh even in this conversation?

I asked Fisher if there was any position battle he was keeping a close eye on. He said cornerback. Gaines vs. Sensabaugh vs. Joyner.
