God help us if Bradford goes down.
Who the heck know piss-tons! The dude has had no time to throw the ball, reminds me of Bradford's Sophmore season...

Hey guys, jumping in a bit late. Don't think this is going to be Rams ball btw, he was out of bounds and didn't reestablish before recovering.

The health of our O line is key to our success this year. The WR's will get better as the season goes on and so will or RB corp, but the key will be keeping our starting OL together. I know one thing for sure, we will have Lance Kendricks in the two TE sets and he will most likely block to sure up the OL as he did last year. He is nursing a knee right now and probably wont see any preseason games until the last game, maybe a few snaps next game.

Well boys, it's time to go work out. I check out our backups at another time as I'm recording this one tomorrow...

Cheers!

The 0 on the scoreboard is a bit misleading. We were at the goal-line and missed an open receiver. We failed on 4th down and declined a FG attempt later on. The starting OL was better but we've been patchy. We've also had penalties. The starting defense looked a bit lightweight, especially at LB. I'm not sure what we're trying to do on offense in the 2nd half. The back-up OL is shaky at best. We haven't kept our inexperienced WRs in the game but we haven't used our depth at TE to figure out the #3 & #4 spots either. I know from last year that our coaches go by practice play rather than these games but my failure to comprehend what they're thinking frustrates me.

Looks like a lot of preseason failures on both sides of the ball. We need to begin to derive some consistency, but as someone already has mentioned, our depth is suspect. More good straightforward drafts are needed and less money on FA are my suggestions in the future.

A disappointing game. We were competitive at every point and we were well organised. That said we were 2nd best at every point and we made too many errors. I know it's pre-season but you can't just flick a switch and expect the problems to disappear come the regular season.

At this point in the preseason, Davis looks more capable of being #2 than Clemens.

Even still, the Rams are in trouble if Bradford goes down.

Based on this game yes. Based on the previous game no. It may have more to do with the 2nd & 3rd OL & receivers.

Davis wasn't bad in the 1st game.

Plus, Clemens is who he is at this point in his career. Davis is still young and can continue to improve.

I like what Davis did tonight with that late-game bomb. He is picking up momentum over Clemons. We might be in trouble at a number of positions if the starters go down because we lack quality depth especially on the O-line.

Skitts24 this post is for you. I see that you are new here on the Rams pages. Welcome. I am one of the modulators (Mods) here and I have some info for you that will assist and enhance your experience here on the SportsHoopla. Please read the following and let me know that you have.

Once you get past the 25 post mark in posts, additional benefits are available to you and they will be found in the same "UserCP" menu bar at the top of this page on the left.

Here are a few rules that are non-negotiable and they are as follows.

We don't take kindly to trollin' (which I am sure you are not) and we don't like a-holes either (of which I am sure you are not). Nudity in avitars is unacceptable. You can put scantly clad ladies in your avi's but no nudes.

Any unnecessary and unwarranted baiting of other posters through viscous personal attacks that become a pattern of behavior that is not conducive to fair sports talk banter WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. We have a few cantankerous folks here but by and large they engage in passionate delivery of their points of view and do not engage in personal attacks that are viscous. We all love the Rams as I'm sure you do as well.

You can argue all you want and you can can get aggressive with your point of view including swearing, but when that aggression turns toward personal attacks that are excessive and outside of the topic at hand and become a consistent pattern of behavior, you will first receive a warning and your posts maybe edited. After the first warning, if the behavior continues you will be removed from this site. We're are all adults here. I am not in the business of baby sitting anyone.

Also, this rule is SportsHoopla-wide, Alternative names and accounts or ALt's are not TOLERATED. First offense, banishment. Hammer Down doesn't tolerate this AT ALL and neither do I. If you have any questions or comments, you know where to find me.

Again, welcome to the Rams pages and SportsHoopla, the best damn sports talk site on the planet!!!!

I thought Davis was awful against the Browns. He was indecisive, ran when he shouldn't, and held on to it when he should have thrown it away. I think part of that was on the OL. Today the 3rd quarter OL was poor. The 4th quarter OL was patchy but it gave Davis a few opportunities.

Skitts24 isn't a Rams fan so he may not be back. He was watching his WV boys since the 49ers played yesterday.

Anybody have a good summary for the game? I ended up busy most of the day and literally the only thing they showed on ESPN was lots of Eddie Lacy.

I didn't watch the game, but from what I've read it seems the Rams are slow to round in to form. But, that is what pre-season is for.

Bradford had a very untimely fumble and the receivers haven't been utilized up to expectations.

But, there are signs that the Rams are making some progress, albeit slowly.

I expect them to show improvement with their next game.
