Can anything good be said about the St. Louis Rams? Any football fan would be hard pressed to find something positive about the miserable situation of the St. Louis Rams.
I suppose one could point to their 9-7 loss at Washington as a sign that things are on the verge of improving, one fact remains. No telling how Washington is though and they may even be a weak team this year.
The St. Louis Rams have only scored 7 total points through the first two weeks of the 2009 football season. Having been blanked by the Seahawks in Seattle (28-0, couldn’t get much worse), the team traveled to Washington in week 2, carrying higher hopes.
QB Marc Bulger and Kyle Boller are nearly identical when it comes to their stats — which means it doesn’t really matter which is in the game because the chance of the Rams winning doesn’t improve.
Marc Bulger has a few good seasons with the Rams - in 06′ Bulger threw for over 4,000 yards and 24 touchdown passes with only 8 interceptions. The last two seasons for Bulger have been less then stellar with more interceptions then touchdown passes.
It is doubtful the Rams will go winless like the Detroit Lions “accomplished” in 08′ - the Rams are not looking at many wins either. It’s hard to find bright spots with the Rams. The only player that the Rams can be proud is RB Stephen Jackson - Jackson has carried the Rams the last few seasons - a running back alone doesn’t win football games.
The NFL has had fast turn arounds before - many feel this isn’t possible with the Rams. The Dolphins in 07′ went 1-15, 08′ the Dolphins went 11-5. Whether that was a fluke or not the turn around was accomplished.
The Rams must draft well in the 10′ draft if they expect to a respectable team once the 10′ season comes. When a team has so many problems, one, two, or even three high draft picks won’t make the difference. The Rams fans hope the front office makes very smart decisions in the upcoming years so the Rams don’t turn into the Detroit Lions of the NFC West.
