Thank you!!! But that's going to be tough with Jeff "8-8" Fisher in charge...

Wanna trade? I'll take Jeff Fisher in a heartbeat. LOL. In all seriousness, I like Jeff Fisher. Reminds me of Bill Cowher. Takes chances; fakes and gadget plays.

Hey mediocrity is better than being bad lol...But seriously, you guys lost SO many starters in the offseason, there was NO way your team had a chance this season no matter who was coach...

Maybe you're right. Our dumpster fire is just out of control.

I think you guys will be all right. Gurley looks promising.

I seriously can't remember the last time a team had such a mass exodus of starting players in one off-season.

Neither can I. Sure players get older, too expensive, or not fit for a team. But the shocker for me was the Borland and Davis retirement. Then losing Aldon Smith :facepalm:

The Borland retirement was the one that shocked me...However, you have to kinda admire the guy, he wanted to leave the game while he still had all his marbles....Think about how many concussions these guys must have which they don't even tell anyone about. I'm guessing it's WAY more often than we think!!!

I can totally respect the decision to retire, but man, you just don't expect that from a rookie who just had a great year.

I agree, but that was my point...Just shows how brutal the game really can be!!! Especially these days with the concussion protocols...How many guys aren't saying a word to avoid all that crap? especially guys like O-lineman who are getting smashed every single play???

Sucks that concussions are part of the game. The majority of athletes just want to play and stay competitive.

GG Rams fans. Even though Teddy got hurt, I'm glad we pulled out a close win. GL the rest of the way.

Good game. Hope Teddy bounces back for you guys. Good luck the rest of the way.

Jared Cook had some key drops.
Oline looks porous.
Play calling on the offense needs to improve.
Vikings lbs are underrated.
We lost to a very good team today. You can't be to surprise, we just aren't a top team yet.
