The Case Against The Los Angeles Rams

The Los Angeles Rams made a smart decision this offseason by firing their head coach Jeff Fisher, but frankly, the team is going to have a tough time attracting a head coach. They are looking for a name that will both make a big splash but also avoid the dreaded retread hiring. That is what happened when they brought in Fisher, and that blew up in their faces, as Fisher went 31-45-1 over the course of five seasons with the team.

    • Still, at a glance, the Rams have a pretty good roster. Their defense is full of talented players, and their line is especially impressive. Robert Quinn and Aaron Donald are some of the best players at their respective positions, so the incoming head coach would not have to worry too much on building up that side of the ball.

    The problem lies on the offense, which is why the Rams seem to be targeting offensive candidates. Their only true weapon is running back Todd Gurley, and they do not even have the proper blocking to get him enough space.

    Making matters worse, the Rams have to deal with having Jared Goff as their quarterback. The No. 1 overall pick in 2016 was absolutely atrocious as a rookie, but the Rams have to stick with him. After all, they did sell the farm for him. Goff does not have pocket presence, arm strength, or the frame to be a true starting quarterback. It would take a miracle worker, quarterback guru to fix his issues.

    For these reasons, McVay may want to avoid taking on the Rams job. The team is likely to stick with Goff for at least another two seasons, as they will not want to admit making a big mistake. Who would have thought that just eight months after the draft the Rams would be regretting their Goff pick so much?
