Is he wondering why Ronnie Rivers is in on a key 3rd down for the first time in nearly two months?
I know I was.
I just saw that. Nothing against Rivers but WHY IS HE STILL WITH THE RAMS? I have yet to see anything he does on the field look anything in the way of special. Anything in his game make you want him on the game day roster over Hunter? Sometimes these coaches have favorites that cloud their vision.

He knows the system and is a solid back up....in other words, he is going to be able to be trusted with audibles and pass blocking etc.
Hes a solid depth guy.
 
Like the man said if you just had special teams and defense. Specifically good return teams and blocking on special teams and better play on the back end of the defense.

The offense had the chance to take the Rams to the lead late in the championship game and couldn't do it.

Is been the same for the last 3 years. When crunch time came the offense failed miserably.

McVay needs a good hard look in the mirror.

I got to push-back a little bit here.

Certainly some truth / accuracy. Rams did have the ball late, with a chance to take the lead ... in Detroit (2023) ... in Philadelphia (2024) ... in Seattle (2025) ... and came-up short each time. That's entirely true.

I just don't think 'failed miserably' is fair or accurate.

In Detroit, I always have thought there was a DPI to end that drive, that the refs refused to call.

In Philadelphia, it was a failure of Limmer and Dotson to even try and block Carter that ended that drive.

In Seattle, the three plays from the Seattle six (netting zero yards) will haunt me but the Rams had a mere four possessions in the 2nd half ... the first two were TD-drives of 75 yards and 87 yards ... the third was the just noted 14-play / 84 yards turnover on downs at the Seattle six ... heck, even the final possession, with twenty-five seconds and no timeouts, the Rams gained 44 yards on 3 plays. That's 290 yards on 26 plays!

In all three of those very painful, season-ending losses, the Rams' Defense came-up short in my opinion.

Finally, the Rams' Offense came through at the end of the Carolina Wild Card Game; and, again in Overtime at Chicago in the Divisional Round.

Maybe I should have said red zone offense. In each of those three losses the offense looked unstoppable driving down the field on the last drive. Then they get to the red zone and look lost.

The Eagles game was different in that a monumental mistake cost them. But the other two the offense never looked like scoring once they got into the redzone. But still, three times falling short.

Great offenses get it done.
