Any of those happen in our favor and we win or went to OT at worst. We left 6 to 10 points on the field not to mention the at least FG attempt at the end if Gallup’s catch was good.

Instead of (yet another) tantrum, you could post the differences in the Rams offense this year. I'll wait.

Kaiser said:

You can see a big difference in our defense playing what is essentially its first preseason game and the Rams team that has been in the same scheme offensively and defensively for four years now.

Sure, my first reaction was to go for the FG. But it was only four minutes into the fourth quarter, there was plenty of time left even if it worked out to be a 3 point game.

And what changed in the Rams offense this year? In all that potbanging I missed your answer. I'll wait.

The Rams didn't hire a new offensive coordinator, they hired A offensive coordinator. There wasn't one on their staff the previous 2 seasons. Kevin O'Connell is an offensive coordinator in name only, he was brought in specifically to be a QB coach to Goff. You'll notice they don't have a QB coach on their current staff. They run McVay's and McVay's offense only.

You're the guy throwing the tantrum, don;t try to project your inadequacies onto anyone else.

You posted false information as an excuse, got called out for it, and now are crying because you don;t like it and cant handle it. Your issues, not anyone else's.

Here's the first part you got wrong:

https://www.therams.com/team/coaches-roster/#:~:text=Kevin O'Connell enters his,16, 2020.

Kevin O’Connell enters his first year as offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams after being hired by the team on Jan. 16, 2020.

So, the Cowboys actually have the advantage - according to your own criteria - in that offensive coordinator Kellen Moore has been here for two years.

Feel free to get butthurt once again because it contradicts your latest batch of excuses.

How about your other false claims about the defense?

You going to continue to try to pretend that didn't happen too? I'm not.



Brandon Staley

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR

Brandon Staley enters his first season as the defensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams. He was hired by the team on Jan. 16, 2020.

If you're going to try to make lame excuses, at least have your facts straight instead of looking like a fool.

I hold these truths to be self-evident, haterzz..

There were two keys to this game, the Rams Offensive Line and the lack of preseason games.

The Rams OL executed extremely well and their ability to sustain long drives was most of the reason for the Rams win. That was 80% of this game, even if fans want to use this game as a Rorschach test for their pet issue like coaching, Dak, DLaw, etc.

You can see a big difference in our defense playing what is essentially its first preseason game and the Rams team that has been in the same scheme offensively and defensively for four years now. That offense was considered ubergenius two years ago and Dallas is still putting their defensive pieces together. The Dallas Defense got worked early, adjusted and then played OK in the second half. Both OL and DL need reps to execute well and they don’t have it yet. Its not an excuse, but it was a factor.

CeeDee Lamb and Trevon Diggs look like third year players in the first NFL snaps, which tells you both guys could play in a Pro Bowl at some point. I still believe if Lamb was gone and we drafted Diggs in the 1st, then everyone after that one round higher we still would have had an excellent draft.

If you watch the game again, Aldon Smith actually played the run better than his pass rush plays. Clear indication of the spectacular physical talent he has and the potential he has when he settles into his role mentally. It also means Everson Griffen is the best backup DE in the Milky Way Galaxy.

Trysten Hill showed the physical skills to be a very good player, he still needs time but he will be starting by the end of the season IMO. He played 44 snaps to 46 for Tyrone Crawford. Antwuan Woods looked good playing 29 snaps (Gallimore 6) backing up Dontari Poe and our DL depth will be a big advantage over the course of the season. Both in depth, settling into the new scheme and being able to mix and match assignments based on opponents.

I would have kicked the FG on the 4th and 3 but I like the aggressiveness in the call. With a little more experience Lamb will get beyond the marker every time and it took a great play from the DB to stop him short. The thing about that call is that the play will convert 3 times out of 4 and for that play, Lamb has the RAC ability that he will break a big gain on it one time out of four. It didn’t work out, but its not the reason we lost.

On draft day I wanted Ramsey over Zeke but I was wrong. I’m still wrong, both are elite players but Zeke will win more games for you.

The Rams will have paid Jared Goff $81 Million dollars through this season and to acquire him they traded two #1 picks (in the top ten), two #2s and two #3s. Dallas will have paid Dak $35 Million over the same period after drafting him in the 4th round. And Dak played better.

I was going to post this thread on Thursday but Sean McVay called a time out and the refs gave it to him. That was a 3 point swing in a three point game by the way.

I thought McVey was still calling plays. Is that correct?

Kaiser said:

I would if I was wrong, that how it works. If I'm right, I don't do that.

The Rams offense has been McVay's for four years, perhaps you missed the entire league throwing rose pedals at his feet two years ago. If the Rams hire a new OC its still McVay's offense. If the Saints hire a new OC its still Sean Payton's, if the Patriots hire a new DC its still Belichick calling the shots.

Well Zeke's never won a game by convincing the ref to throw a flag.

It is correct and he had a good game plan. He eliminated the Cowboys vaunted pass rush by simply dinking and dunking while running it down their throats and controlling the clock. Reminded me a lot (and it was mentioned during the game) of a Bill Parcells run offense that was genius in it's simplicity.

The Rams have a new OC, DC, and ST coach. All outside hires. I'll give you the offensive scheme being the same, but the defense has a brand new coordinator and philosophy. They're essentially in the same boat we are in: Same offense, different defense.

The Rams had no preseason before the game either. Both teams had the same offense and same play caller and both put in a new defense and had a new st coach. Why would a lack of preseason hurt Dallas and not the rams?
