I can’t get too upset at this point. The math really wasn’t there to make the playoffs heading into this one.

As a whole the defense should be better than it has been, IMO. The injuries are not as great to be ranked around 20 in so many categories.

I think McVay and Snead face as big, if not bigger, challenege this offseason as they had after Fisher's last dreadful

I don't like any NFL Officials, let make that abundantly clear, with a minor exception for the female blonde, but that's another story.

I have been hanging on the "But.......World Champions...."

Honestly stopped doing that.

Now its...."We took the year off"

Even with the shit o-line, I think we are in the hunt with an average DC.

Our talent is stout on D.
Super Bowl Championship will last a lifetime.

Yes this year has sucked, but rest assured we WILL be back.

And when winter turns to spring, it WILL be TIME FOR DODGER BASEBALL.

Im looking forward to Rams football on Christmas day....Beat Denver. Dont remember when the last time the Rams played on XMAS day.

Being on the field as long as they are makes a big deal.

There was a Justin Hollins siting.

Sort of funny his old LBer coach has him on the field.

Can’t wait for the Padres to take over that weak division.

Yeah I mean shoot we only won it 9 of the last 10 years.

Little brother can have their flashy signings at the end of the day they are still little brother.....they got hot for a 4 game run last year. Back to reality this year.....

Gay makes a 55 yarder look easy, then (while I was questioning why they didnt go for 2) he inexplicably misses the XP that would have made it an 11 point game. Of course the first thing I thought of was picturing @Selassie I screaming, "Effing Kickers!!!"

I’ll respectfully disagree…Cam Akers 65 yards on 12 rushes. That’s a 5.4 Avg. The question is why did we only run him 12 times? Kyren Williams only got 2 runs..also looked good.
Well, got to take the good with the bad when it comes to McVay.
The Bad? Historically speaking when the run game is working he has a tendency to get pass heavy. Always has. Washington fans will attest to that
The Good?

I still don’t know why Gaines gave up that unnecessary roughness penalty on Jalen’s strip and recovery. Was pretty bone headed
It wasn’t much if you asked me, maybe the guy wasn’t paying attention or maybe Gaines is freakishly strong but it seems these days a little pushing and shoving and flags start flying.

Like another poster said.. this will be Snead and McVay's biggest challenge.

Health is something they don't have much control over. I expect them to move on from Allen and Noteboom on that front.. but.. there's no way to hold off when there are THAT MANY injuries.

They're going to have to be successful in acquiring players and shuffling their coaching staff.. and in schematic tweaks.
They don't have much salary cap space and don't have much high-end draft capital.

The good news is that if they are much healthier next year, the floor is probably a winning season. If they hit home runs in talent acquisition... a high end playoff team is possible.

The Rams are finding there way. They weren’t structure right & didn’t develop there players right.

The Dodgers foundation is set up real well. They have an excellent core of players.The trade dead line is the way to get the right players cheap while developing your roster.

The Rams might have tried to make a move but now they are developing players keeping the veterans happy & healthy. Mcvay is a players coach.

—Dave Roberts is a good guy,but he is a puppet & The reason why they get there & CHOKE!!

They lost last year because they had too many key pitching injuries, imo.
They also stopped hitting.
Last year? They were dumb to keep chasing the Giants in the last month of the season and burned out their staff. By the time they hit Atlanta, they were cooked.

Looks like they're going for a salary cap reset this year.. I'm fine with that and really want to see Vargas and Stone.

Is it too much to ask for a better performance against a team that isn't all that much better?

And WTF...McVay's teams make LaFleur look like fucking Vince Lombardi every time they've played each other.

We’ll likely need to make a painful trade or two, but we still need to acquire at least two legit starters who can move defenders and provide a run threat. We might as well go full-rebuild and let Staff retire otherwise.
Move Ramsey while you can still get a 1st or 2nd for him...

Since the Rams lost this isn’t a bad way to vent. I’m an Angels fan so use to losing & having core players.

Pissed Shoni didn’t win MVP.What he did has never been done before PERIOD. Not a Trout fan & Shoni was way worse in 2021.Mumbers don’t lie.
Rumor is he’ll be a Dodger next season. Then we’ll see what the future will bring,but 2022 was amazing &!Bernie is a Fat sports writer.
—Chasing SF(wtf) ? Look at the Dodgers lineup. It was not there pitching &we’ll see how the new Angles picture does.Taking players out like that is the mistake.
—The pupet (Dave Roberts)doesn’t get to have any feel for the game.Just sit on his bucket eating seeds.
The Braves & The Mets were better than the Dodgers IMO.

Ask Mcvay who his Daddy is ? Probably Shanny,but Lafleur owns him.
Mcvay does have an excellent bloodline though if you look at his coaching tree.

I happened to hear the whistle on that play on TV and it was blown as Gaines made his block. I replayed it and didn't hear another whistle prior. Watching it at full speed the actions were almost simultaneous. Flag shouldn't have been thrown on Gaines if the audio is correct.

14 rushing attempts against one of the worst run defenses in the league.
Im sure McVay gets the data driven info regarding trends with playing and defenses.....he choses to ignore those facts for some reason.
There have been multiple times where the Rams have played teams with some glaring weaknesses, like Green Bays run defense, and he just ignores it.
A lot of changes due this year and McVay play calling and run commitment have to two of them.

How many starters were playing on D last night?
