Is there another QB currently in the NFL that seems to demonstrate as much frustration and disappointment towards his teammates and/or coaches during a game, as Kyler Murray?

Reminds me of a top-DB who looks around as if to blame someone else when he gives-up a big-play. Unfortunately, Ramsey does that but he is far from alone. Marcus Peters comes to mind but there are others.

Not Quarterbacks. They generally give credit to others when things go well (except for Aaron Rodgers); and take responsibility for failures ... even those that are not their fault ... again, except for Aaron Rodgers.
Great point. At the very beginning of the broadcast, the sideline reporter ((Okmin) quoted Raheem as saying, "the goal of our defense is to make Murray feel frustrated."

Murray gets frustrated easily, and when he does, his game goes in the tank.

I just don’t like 15 yards off on 3rd and 12 and 12 yards off on 3rd and 10

Plus just play press once in awhile with Ramsey on Brown

But otherwise this was a good win for the Rams
14 of 17 for 140 yards Making him look All Pro

I'm sure none of the other 31 teams got wind of that....

One thing I keep getting back to.. how good is Alaric Jackson? I mean that in a sincere way... looks like he's just solid AF.. not spectacular.. but ABSOLUTELY getting the job done. Am I being overly positive? The interior of the line has looked really solid two weeks in a row.. granted, against mediocre fronts.
I feel the same way. I haven't taken the time to break down the Oline like I usually try to, but Jacksons seems to be playing solid. We never hear his name in a pressure or sack given up and it seems like more creases are forming then before. Given we are not playing the Bills defense.

One would think so but maybe the Rams are a little more committed than most teams.

NFL Live put up an interesting stat yesterday afternoon. Kyler Murray has two-or-fewer rush attempts in a game just five times in his NFL career. Four-of-the-five are games against the Rams!

It's one thing for a team to say ... "We want to keep Murray in the pocket" ... The Rams do it.

We've heard McVay and what he says when there are deficiencies though and that stuff after the game was not it. It all goes back to you hear what you want to believe when coaches talk.
Right back at you...hear what you want.

I didn't see the game.. how'd my guy Alaric Jackson do?

Solid.
He’s grading out solid with PFF as well.
May have stumbled onto a great guard solution.

Excellent to hear! I remember writing on here when we signed him that I think he'd transition to a real nice NFL OG.

The ramifications of him being good are significant. They can go into next season with him at one guard with Shelton, Anchrum & Bruss competing for the other and have quality depth.
And he could be your backup LT.

They could look at draft for a true future OT.

Sunday I was focused mostly on the OL and how the technique, penetration issues etc.. Got to say I was pretty impressed with Alaric Jackson, his swing and step blocks are pretty beast asf considering he's not highly touted. I didn't here his name all broadcast either which is a good sign. Was he perfect? No.. but he didn't get beat like a drum like Coleman Shelton.

I hate to keep beating this drum but if we had drafted a solid middle anchor who didn't look like he was on skates most of a game that would help both LG and RG positions obviously and stop the worst type of pressure there is to Stafford, up the middle pressure.

I think the key now is just get all 5 to log some games together. Hopefully they can avoid further injuries.

9ers run defense is allowing only 2.8 ypc so it'll be interesting to see if we can get some seams going. It would be a nice surprise to see this "retooled" line take those fuckers to the woodshed for once.

I'll say this... I watched the colts game at 1 and Romo called that one. He's terrible and his act was already old after his 1st yr. Basically ruined watching the game for me.

Sanchez is much better to listen to than Romo and he does say some things that he probably shouldn't... and that does make him funny and entertaining. He's got some work to do though... like homework before every game. That clown they pair Sanchez with fucking sucks though and I'm confident that his vision is completely fucked and needs glasses.

Honestly, I am absolutely amazed that many of the clowns that call games are actually still employed and payed for the shit jobs they do. Many of them completely suck. It's bad.
Personally, I like Sanchez a lot.
Don’t think he’s goofy at all.
Smart guy, knows the game and doesn’t take himself as seriously as a lot of color guys do.

No reason to do that on those long 3rd downs - continue to do like they are doing on 1st and second down and only give 10 yards
Let me add my 2 cents in here. I understood why they did it, but the defense was on the field for a loooooong time. The offense sits for such a long time it starts to feel a little out of sync when you get back on the field. We won and that’s the most important thing…but couldn’t we give them a 7 yard cushion on 3rd and 10 instead of 12? Just sayin.

Yes! It's going to be interesting! I'm praying our starting center comes back soon! I haven't seen his timeframe?

I do wonder if he makes using Akers more likely. More gap runs & less outside zone?

Trojan homer.

LOL

He's growing on me. You're right about him not taking himself too seriously... that part is definitely refreshing. What irks me about him is that I don't believe that he takes the actual job as serious as he could... if he did some homework before games (especially with player names) he would be much better.

He's definitely not the worst out there. I'm probably way too hard on the guys in the booth. When I hear mistakes... it bugs the shit out of me. I know I'd make mistakes too, but I often think to myself that I could do so much better at it than many of these blowhards that get paid to stammer through 4 hours of NFL beauty.

No doubt. And McVay isn't gonna say they played bad after a win. But you can bet he killed them on film review because there were plenty of poor or blown coverages.

We surrendered deep sidelines, which you can't have in that call and situation. Also there were deep shots the Cards couldn't capitalize on. Rams definitely can improve back there and I expect them to as they transition past Long and Rochell and get both these rooks involved in key roles.
