As fans we have a lot of emotion invested in this team we root for. Some of us have been fans for quite awhile, way before it was popular to be a fan of the Rams, some of us have been fans since there days in L.A.. So it's very difficult to watch the product and root for what we have on the field. A bunch of new up and coming stars (WE HOPE).
We ask ourselves, or blame what we think the problem maybe, is it the lack of receivers, the poor offensive line play, the defense, poor play at qb. Well the way I see it, all them have show flashes of light, so I don't think the problem is there. It all starts in the coaching, no the coach doesn't play but he's responsible for keeping the team disciplined. But I think there's a method to Spags mojo. He's trying to get this team to play as team, and loose as a team, because then they can win as a team. Sort of like a product of the team we all love to hate, the Pats. We saw last year an average qb win 11 games, because they buy into a selfless team system.
The one problem I do however see is the offensive playcalling. It's very bad, with no chances taken downfield. Too many draw plays on 2 and long. Let these guys put the ears back and play, start passing the ball 10-15 yards, instead 5-7. Take some throws down the field to let a team know you will. They've gotta do this to keep the defenses honest and open up some room for Stevens running game, cause all we see at this point is a lot of stacking the defensive line. We don't see any adjustments at the offensive line, when you know their coming with the blitz. The way I see it Shurmur is not the guy for the job. But I'll still watch the games and take the punishment along with everyone else. LOL
