Re: Does he, or doesn't he? Version 2.0: Keith Null
I say yes. So far, he has looked good in my opinion. If Boller keeps playing like he has so far, I wouldn't be surprised if Berlin and Null beat out Boller. -
Re: Does he, or doesn't he? Version 2.0: Keith Null
I say yes, right now there isn't a lot of differene between the two but Null has way more upside and Berlin doesn't look like he's gonna get any better.Comment

You have to go with the player this staff has brought in, over the holdover from the last staff. I think Null gets the nod here. I don't think Berlin will take long to catch on with another squad though.Comment

Both Null and Berlin have played better than Boller. So who ever doesnt make it will be robbed. Boller is making the team cuz we payed him.Comment

Ummm... you obviously don't have NFL network or you would've seen Boller pass 14 for 20 and hit rams hands on 19 of the passes and you would've seen Keith Null not be able to hit a broad side of a barn when he was QB. Good thing you're not in charge of things!

I think Beers hit the nail on the head here, going with the guy the current staff picked over the guy that the last regime brought in. So to answer the question, yes, Null will win the competition because it's so close.I believe!:ram:Comment

You have to go with the player who gives you the most upside and I think Null will offer that over Berlin.
Go Rams!Comment

so will keith finish up the second half tonight? i expect kyle and brock to split the 1st half with keith finishing the game up.. does that sound fair?-09-03-2009, 02:00 PM -
I thought Keith looked good out there. He's accurate and seems to get rid of the ball fast.
Does anyone think he looks better than any of our other backups? I'm curious because we gave Gado the 2nd spot after his good performance. I'd be fun to see Null in there either with the 2nd or even the 1st stringers.
Get the kid in it.-08-22-2009, 01:53 PM -

Ryan Leaf was one of the most egregious draft busts in NFL history. He went second overall to the San Diego Chargers and failed miserably.
He alienated teammates, fans and media types. He suffered serious shoulder and wrist injuries. Later, after the Chargers turned him out, he failed to sustain comebacks in Tampa Bay and Dallas.
Now his protégé is trying to succeed where he failed.
As an assistant coach at West Texas A&M, Leaf helped develop Keith Null into a hugely productive Division II quarterback. Now Null is getting his shot under much different circumstances than Leaf enjoyed -– as a sixth-round Rams draft pick fighting for the No. 3 quarterback slot.
Many experts left him out of their pre-draft rankings. Others mentioned him as a potential street free agent, or “camp arm” as they say in the business.
But Null could become much more than that. He is a big prospect (6-foot-4, 220 pounds) with a big arm and a nice passing touch.
He offers intriguing physical tools and a productive collegiate background.
With starting quarterback Marc Bulger missing the rest of preseason play with a broken finger, Null will get additional work as he battles Brock Berlin for the No. 3 job behind Bulger and Kyle Boller.
Maybe, just maybe, Null could become a true developmental quarterback. His considerable potential could earn him a roster spot if he continues progressing through the preseason.
Null did not look like a small-town, small-school rube during training camp. He knew exactly what he was getting into when he reported to work at Rams Park.
Leaf helped get him ready. Null learned from Leaf’s fortune and misfortune.
“He has gone through it all, to say the last,” Null said. “He’s definitely had a lot of experiences. He has learned from all of those.
“We really enjoyed each other. I enjoyed having him as a coach and I know he enjoyed having me as a player. We got along great.”
Leaf’s tenure at the school ended abruptly and badly. He developed a painkiller addiction after his NFL career ended and that led to his arrest on drug charges.
But Leaf has stayed connected with Null while working through his personal and legal issues.
“He just called me two or three days ago and left me a message,” Null said. “I actually have to call him back. It’s been pretty busy around here.
“We talk every two or three weeks, He says in touch. He is very encouraging and helpful for me.”
Null threw for 5,097 yards in his senior season and capped his career with stellar Division II playoff and all-star game performances. Null threw for 595 yards and seven touchdowns against Abilene Christian in a playoff game and later earned MVP honors at the Valero Cactus Bowl.-08-20-2009, 02:53 PM -
i dont understand why people thought null was ready to start. He's a rookie and not even from the D1 level. He was/is NO WHERE close to being ready to be a starter-12-13-2009, 05:52 PM
