I know most were secretly hoping for a losing streak or really poor play by Case to get him in the game but I think Fisher has been doing just what he said. The Rams are getting the kid ready to play. The O-line is getting better and the WR's are starting to play better.

Add to that some of the Rookie WR's are getting healthy and Goff has a chemistry with them.We shall see soon but I don't know if instant results are going to indicate which QB is better. It will be several years before the measuring stick becomes clear. I'm hoping the Rams got the better QB but both might have very successful careers where it's a judgement call. I don't think either turns into Ryan Leaf...maybe they both come closer to a Manning. by Hacksaw 8 years 9 months ago Total posts: 24523 Joined: Apr 15 2015 AT THE BEACH Moderator lets enjoy the win POST #19 When Goff finally get' his chance to play, I bet he will look great. He will impress. The other guys who went to college for 4 years are being pressed into duty. Let's see how that goes over time. As our team gel's the addition of Goff might take us over the top. Could happen.One game at a time. We won 3 of them,,, and in a row,, 2 on the road. We aren't filling up the box scores or stat sheets but apparently we didn't have to. We aren't the lowest point producers but barely at 63 total. That about a full game in points less than most everyone else. I guess that'll happen with a shut out opener on the books. Let's hope we can consistently win out of our division and conference too. We haven't had that challenge yet. We're about to find out.GO RAMS GO RAMS !!! GO DODGERS !!!

But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't getting a little concerned that they picked the wrong guy.I was a Wentz guy right up until the Rams drafted Goff. It would be really easy for me to jump on the soap box and proclaim I was right...but I'm a huge Goff fan now and that isn't me. It's not about me being right. It's about the Rams being right and winning. I'd also be lying if I said I didn't have the same concerns as you. I have a feeling we will get to see Goff soon. I know most were secretly hoping for a losing streak or really poor play by Case to get him in the game but I think Fisher has been doing just what he said. The Rams are getting the kid ready to play. The O-line is getting better and the WR's are starting to play better.
