I didn't think Foles would make the move to LA, and he didn't even make it to Baltimore.

We all know how bad he was yesterday, and it had nothing to do with learning the offense. Foles is just a total mess seeing the field and hitting open receivers.

Fisher says they are really close. Close to what? Finishing 8-8?

I'm hoping Jerry Jones advises Kroenke that he needs to make a splash in the move to LA by hiring a new dynamic HC. Please.

It should be blatantly obvious to Kroenke that we are never going anywhere with Fisher as HC.

His accuracy has nothing to do with knowing the offense or not. You don't sail it two feet ver guys 6'3" because you don't know the offense. Maybe he feels too much pressure or something but he's clearly not in synch with the rest of the offense.

I like it.

Foles is an average QB and sometimes he's below average.

Kroenke was at the Bears game and it doesn't take a billionaire to see that Foles had the sun in his eyes all day.
This move tells me that this team still wants to win. Great move. Foles was a throw in with the salary dump and picks. I like his toughness but Sunday warrants a rest.

I am psyched. He's a threat to run which keeps the LB from dropping back in coverage
My prediction is that we are saying Fisher should be fired for not making this move long ago.
Baltimore D is terrible, great place to start.

Broken record time, here. Rams should have drafted Hundley and just started him from day one. Could have made this a rebuilding year on offense with all the new o-lineman and Gurley and Marquez and Quick. Fans don't like starting over but I think it would have been a lot more acceptable than bringing in a retread that didn't have much upside and now we're starting over with another retread.

Or.. maybe.. David Carr.
If they were willing to move up for Joyner...
I just don't know about Carr. Not with the Rams. I think any dropback QB under Fisher is going to be a major risk. Sure, Collins "led" them to 13-3 but otherwise, if Fisher is going to be the coach, I think a mobile QB needs to be the starter for the team to have success.

Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather have Carr and Cooper and Crabtree right now for the offense but I don't think Fisher and Co. would know how to use them even if they had them.

How ironic that both Foles and Bradford are "out" at exactly the same time, but for different reasons...

"You know, Nick just needs a break," Fisher said. "Nick just needs a break right now."
