My first entire game in awhile.....
I am convinced it's the players now. I was on the fence about the iffy play calling and the players who in the late stages of the season still are missing assignments, and running incorrect routes.
Fumbles, dropped passes, missed tackles, missed coverages (ATOGWE), can't all be attributed to coaching. These guys are still making the same mistakes, and since their is a lack of talent and depth they continue to start.
I was feeling pretty good about this team during the 1st half, then that optimism dissipated. I still am not sold that Haslett's not the right guy to turn it around. Naysayers say what you will, but at least he has a plan for the future, and the future hopefully will be better than the present.
Ram On!

Rams vs Cards
Congrats to the Arizona Cardinals for winning the NFC West. One because they are not the Seahawks or 9ers, two beacause it gives us all hope as Rams' fans that a franchise, even in disarray, can become a winner in a few years.
As for the game I missed another one opting to spend a great birthday weekend with my oldest daughter. From the stat sheet and what I have read the Rams played ok minus the costly turnovers.
We need leadership in the front office, coaching staff and then players, just have faith it may be on the way.

Rams vs Dolphins
Quick observations:
The Rams can compete with Steven Jackson, get blown out with out him.
-Need to sign play makers on offense in offseason.
Say what you will about the coaches but on a few key plays, players made major mistakes.
On a critical 3rd down in the 4th quarter the TE and the FB of the Dolphins both released. Q. Culberson had the FB, Atogwe had the TE. Atogwe covered the TE but so did Culberson leaving the FB with an uncontested reception for the first down.
-Atogwe was yelling at him, so at least he knew what the assignment was.
Dropped passes, incorrect routes by young WRs, and bad decisions by the QB. When does it go beyond coaching? Players need to execute plays, the way they were drawn up.
Lastly: Al Saunders stop running that fake reverse run up the middle play. I think teams may be on to it.
