Seems to have worked for Philly bringing in a whole new offense. Why would it not work for the rams too? No risk equals NO REWARD.As much as I like to second guess Shottey, and I do - bringing in a brand new flashy OC means that we start over with a brand new offense. Brand new for Greg Robinson, for Tavon Austin, for Brian Quick, and for Sam Bradford (or whoever is under center).
We may be better off with continuity.
The other thing I wonder about is this... How much of the conservative nature of our offense is on Shottey and how much is on Fisher?
If you are the OC and the head coach tells you - priority one is no turnovers and priority two is score points, are you really to blame for being über conservative?
Same line of thought applies to Bradford and his tendency to check down - the blame we toss around for watching the most conservative offense in the NFL may be misplaced.

Question. What does a lowercase 4 look like?Again
Can you please capitalize the name of our team -- it's the Rams with a capital R
When I post on your favorite team I always capitalize 49ers
Regardless of how much I hate your favorite team
I am not sure what your point is? I am not a niners fan and have been a rams fan since the 60's. Are you really trying to pick a fight or something? What have I ever said that would lead you to believe I am not a fan? Because of their losing ways that I am frustrated about and point out? Seriously man, not cool.Again

I just know that phillys offense works and ours does not. If the nfl is truly a copycat league like the experts claim then why dont we do the same? Seems logical to do or is Schotty too stubborn to change?This is true. But Chip Kelly's offense isn't all that complex - it's just fast. And notice that he has his old QB under center - giving them some familiarity.
Agree, agree, agree.What if the Rams hire an Oregon coach as OC and draft Mariota? The rest of the offense would have to adapt, but our QB would already be mostly up to speed, which would be a huge plus (although, I'm sure the coach's NFL playbook will differ some from the Ducks playbook).
And Bradford having to learn a new offense? I'm not worried about that. Why avoid a positive coaching change for a quarterback who only plays 50% of the games? The Rams need to approach 2015 as if Bradford is already on IR, since he clearly can't be counted on to stay healthy. If he rebounds is career, that's great. Don't count on him being the starting QB in 2015 though...we cannot afford that assumption.

You may be right on this and I was reading an article about when Sam came into the league and he was taught to get rid of the ball quickly and that was why all the short passes etc. I was think about that when I was watching the broncos game last week and they timed Manning and how quickly he got rid of the ball. It was like 2 seconds and it was gone. The only difference was Manning had more to show for his quick get rid of the ball than we did.As much as I like to second guess Shottey, and I do - bringing in a brand new flashy OC means that we start over with a brand new offense.
