Rams Debut: Brandon Lloyd

In his Ram debut Brandon Lloyd had 6 receptions for 74 yards with a long of 34. Lloyd showed to be a nice upgrade over free-agent bust Mike Sims-Walker. Some bright spots for Lloyd were his ability getting downfield and gaining separation from coverage. Unfortunately Feely struggled getting him the ball in those opportunities. But […]

Rams vs. Cowboys: Big Plays & Big Decisions

Going into Sunday for their game against Dallas the Rams knew they would have an uphill battle ahead of them. Dallas was coming off of tough last minute loss to New England and still in the hunt for the NFC East title. The Rams were coming off of a blow-out defeat at the hands of […]

Rams vs. Packers: Big Plays & Big Decisions

For anyone who missed yesterday’s game and happen to glance at the box score this morning I am sure it was a bit confusing. Perhaps you were wondering just how Rams finished with more 1st downs, 22-20, better time of possession 30:41 to 29:19; and total yards 424 to 399. And lost the game let […]

Rams Trade for WR Brandon Lloyd

Multiple source including Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post Dispatch and Chris Mortensen of ESPN have confirmed The St. Louis Rams and Denver Broncos have completed a trade for Wide Receiver Brandon Lloyd.

Ram Fantasy Corner: Frozen Tundra Edition

Okay. In early October it’s not quite the Frozen Tundra of NFL lore, but it might as well be. For a team as young as this Rams group they have yet to experience an environment as hostile and tough on opponents as Lambeau Field. It has been a tough four games for any owner of […]

Red Means Go

Ah the Red Zone, I suppose it can be confusing. Think about it, growing up we are taught that red means stop.  So maybe it’s an issue of perception. Perhaps moving forward Devaney can ask that TV, Radio and Stadium personnel refer to that last 20 yards as the Green Zone. Green meaning go and […]

Big Decisions & Big Plays: Rams vs Redskins

Dropped passes (six more) , costly penalties (nine of ‘em) and the inability to get 7 in the Red Zone…stop me if you have heard this before.  The Rams nearly came back but continue to be plagued by self-inflicted mistakes. WR Mike Sims-Walker had three drops and TE Lance Kendricks made sure he was included […]

Rams Fantasy Corner: Risk & Reward: Rams wide receivers

The Rams have been anything but prolific on offense this season. Especially in the Red Zone where it matters most for fantasy targets. At first glance the Rams crop of wide receivers has the makings of WR2 and even WR1 potential. Offensive system in place that plays to their strengths. Check. Pedigreed offensive coordinator with […]

Rams Fantasy Corner: The Steven Jackson dilemma

Week by week fantasy values drops further and further, much like any number of Sam Bradford’s passes. But surely Steven Jackson could escape the pull of the growing black hole that has become the Rams fantasy relevancy. Right? Steven Jackson was adamant this preseason. He was the exception to the rule and fate NFL running […]

Time for Apologies Has Passed, Now is The Time for Answers

No the season is not over, and no the season is not a lost cause. However the time to worry is here and more importantly the time for apologies is over. I am hearing a lot of talk about “it’s only 3 games” and “it’s a long season” and “there is a lot of football […]

Rams vs Giants: Big Plays & Big Decisions

To begin let me share the statistic that 22 of the 177 teams that have started a season 0-2 have made the playoffs. It is not out of the realm of possibilities but the math leads us to believe making it to the post season is easier when you are 1-1. For the Rams to […]

Rams Fantasy Corner: Renewing the faith in your Rams fantasy plays?

Week one left us with a lot of questions about the Rams Fantasy viability. After getting off to a great start fantasy wise it took all of two plays for Steven Jackson owners to put fist-to-wall.  Little did fantasy owners know that this was only the first on many dominos to fall. Some due to […]

There Are No Excuses In Football

The Rams had a lot of things going against them in week 1. First off they were hosting the Super Bowl contending, Vince Young anointed, Dream Team of the NFL. Secondly they were fielding a team that by all accounts and analysis was not.  As I wrote earlier this week, “Sunday matched-up a Super Bowl […]

Rams vs. Eagles: Big Plays & Big Decisions

After months of lawyering about with no football fans were desperate for anything. Along came preseason and temporarily quenched that thirst. As it lingered on so did the thirst.  The longing for meaningful games grew and grew. As welcomed as preseason action was, the games after a quarter or so lacked any meaning. As such, […]
