And that offense has about as much to do with this year's offense as it does with 1999's.
I appreciate the time and effort it took to put that together,
@RAGRam. I know how labor-intensive that can be. There were some high points in there for sure, but here's the bottom line about all of that.
It will look nothing like last years because it's not alot of new players.
Still wanna thank
@RAGRam for his time fellas...and the first play shows

Rams Player Review: Brian Quick, Wide Receiver

The St. Louis Rams drafted Brian Quick in the second round with the 33rd overall pick in the 2012 draft out of Appalachian State. Entering the draft Quick was a highly rated prospect with great speed and attractive numbers playing in the FCS. However, his NFL career has not panned out to be much as of yet. Brought in as a potential deep threat for then franchise quarterback Sam Bradford, Quick squandered in his first few seasons and has yet to buck the trend.
Playing only one year of high school football at Ridge View High in Columbia, SC, Quick was not a sought after recruit for colleges. He would eventually land at Appalachian State. He would sit out all of his freshman season after playing in only two games. His junior year things would begin to pick up. He recorded 844 receiving yards and nine touchdowns. Sporting News would vote him Second-Team All-Conference. As a senior he would haul in over 1,000 yards receiving and 11 touchdowns. Once again, Sporting News would recognize his skill set with a spot on their Div. I FCS All-American Team.
Quick has yet to make an impact at the pro level. His rookie year stats are less than stellar at 11 receptions, 156 receiving yards and two touchdowns. In fairness, his stat line has increased each year in the league growing to 25 receptions last year for 375 yards and three touchdowns. 2014 was cut short in for Quick thanks to a torn rotator cuff injury against the Kansas City Chiefs. Off to his best start in three years, this was a serious set back for the young wide out.
Unfortunately, all signs lead to bust for this young wide out. No doubt entering a prove it year with new quarterback Nick Foles, Quick will need to step up in a big way to help the Rams justify holding on to the previous high draft pick. Looking back on what was a below average wide receiver draft class in 2012 the Rams had opportunities to take players like Alshon Jeffery or T. Y. Hilton, in the same position they selected Quick. Hindsight is always 20/20, but Quick was average at best in college and that has not translated to much production in the league. A poor pool of prospects allowed him to climb draft boards and he now faces the daunting task of shedding the “bust” label in 2015.
He'll be here! And all this bust label talk will disappear....
