Rams 2012 Season Preview, Part 1: Learning to run before you walk

The cyrstal ball on this year’s Rams team is awful cloudy. I am pretty sure that this isn’t a Super Bowl team, and I’m fairly confident that we won’t earn a top-five pick in the draft this year (unless it’s the Redskins’). Beyond that, while I have certain expectations that I call “realistic,” I’m not […]

What we’re learning about Jeff Fisher as he churns the roster

Jeff Fisher already letting his players and fans know – this many be a strange season, but it will never be boring. Photo by Getty Images. Bill Parcells once told Peter King that he spends 50% of his time worrying about the bottom five guys on the roster. So too Jeff Fisher, who on the […]

Bradford, Rams take a step back against the Cowboys

There are nice ways to play off preseason losses. But after the Rams’ first string offense and defense fell apart against an undermanned Dallas Cowboys team, playing without Demarcus Ware or their top three pass-catchers, being nice just isn’t realistic. Jeff Fisher’s new team regressed to a lot of bad habits that they retained from […]

First day of practice: Your geek-out resources

More than 1600 fans piled in to the Rams’ Earth City practice facilities yesterday, ready to see – and document – the new start under coach Fisher. As a result, the camp reports and fan photographs are starting to trickle in. Here’s a morning’s worth of geekout reading for you.  Camp Report and Photos from […]

Janoris Jenkins, Greg Salas impressive early at RamsCamp

Photo by Stella Horton As always, the first open practice of RamsCamp is an event of our own making. There are footballs, and football players, but this is not Football. Players were in shorts and shells, and spent most of the first hour of the day stretching and working in position groups on athletic drills. […]

Taking a mulligan: Rams bring in new WR and TE

Perhaps only the Rams could bring in a block-first tight end who drew more penalties than all but two other players at his position and a broken-down receiver who caught only nine passes in eleven games, and give fans hope that both players might be clear upgrades at their position.  That’s the state of things […]

The Rams are starting all over again. It’s gonna be rough.

The St Louis Rams prepared for free agency by cutting ties with cap-heavy veterans, including long-time warriors Ron Bartell and James Hall. These are bittersweet times for Rams fans, knowing that these moves are necessary for the process of rebuilding. But as Brennan put it earlier tonight: @BrennanJSmithHappy to see the Rams get draft picks […]

Seven-round mock draft starts Friday

I may not look like Les Snead, but I’ve got seven rounds of Rams picks to make just like he does. You know the mock draft season has started in earnest when the Twitter-wide 32-team 7-round mock draft games start. That’s exactly what we’re in for this weekend, thanks to New York Giants (32): Washington […]

Are the Rams setting up Sam Bradford for stability? Or mediocrity?

Sam Bradford will get one-on-one coaching for the first time since Dick Curl was let go. Photo by Chris Lee, Post-Dispatch. The Rams followed through on Jeff Fisher’s commitment to hire a quarterbacks coach this week, reportedly recruiting former Rutgers offensive coordinator Frank Cignetti Jr. The move is welcome just from the standpoint of having […]

For Josh McDaniels, the season ends as it began. With a drop.

For Josh McDaniels, returning to the New England Patriots after architecting the NFL’s worst offense with the St Louis Rams must have felt like waking up from a horrible nightmare. At first. Before his moment of redemption in the Super Bowl was taken down by the same freak occurrence that haunted his existence in St […]

St Louis CVC To Stan Kroenke: No Home Games In London

The points in the CVC’s message to Stan Kroenke’s London plan can be counted on one finger. When it comes to the big question hanging over the St Louis Rams’ future – where will they play home games in 2015 – the ball is in the court of the St Louis Convention and Visitor’s Center. […]

An Open Letter To Stan Kroenke From Rams Fans

Dear Stan, Where there is smoke, there is fire. A tired cliché, I know, but one very applicable to the current situation regarding the Rams’ future in St. Louis and the potential blaze burning behind your office door. As bidders emerged for the Los Angeles Dodgers this week, you threw your name in among those […]

An ode to the Rams coaching search

‘Twas the day of Black Monday, and all through Rams Park A franchise was emerging, back from a seemingly eternal dark Stan came with his axe and off came their head Devaney and Spags, an error of Rams football fell dead Their standard wouldn’t cut it, 10 wins in three years Kroenke said “enough, our […]

Jeff Fisher Chooses The Rams, And Football Over Lifestyle

Jeff Fisher kept us waiting, and all credible reporters depicted him as being evenly torn between becoming the next coach of the St Louis Rams, or the Miami Dolphins. NFL.com’s Albert Breer summed it up like this:  @AlbertBreer: My sense of it, talking to folks who know him, is the football side pulls him to St. […]
