The Los Angeles Rams insist there is no panic internally aft

THOUSAND OAKS Sam Shields Jersey , Calif. (AP) — er losing consecutive games for the first time under coach Sean McVay.Convincing those outside the team that everything is fine is another matter.“My wife got vitamins out in the morning when we lose two games,” cornerback Aqib Talib said Wednesday. “You got to just get back to the basics and play football.”Quarterback Jared Goff, who has been receiving the most scrutiny for his performances in losses at Chicago and against Philadelphia, was emphasizing that message. Goff’s production has dropped off during the past three games, throwing one touchdown pass and six interceptions in that span after posting a 26-to-6 touchdown to interception ratio over the first 11 games of the season.Goff had another interception against the Eagles changed to a lost fumble by league statisticians, not that it offered any solace.“Doesn’t matter,” Goff said. “It was a turnover.”Cutting down on giveaways is the priority for the Rams (11-3) before facing Arizona on the road Sunday. Everything else brought up as the reason for the downturn in his productivity, from wide receiver Cooper Kupp’s season-ending knee injury to struggles in pass protection, does not matter nearly as much as playing turnover-free football http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-brandin-cooks-jersey , Goff said.“I think each game is independent of each other,” Goff said. “I don’t think there’s one singular thing. You look at the last game, just made a couple of dumb plays that hurt us and can’t do that.”Goff said there is an extra determination to avoid similar mistakes against the Cardinals (3-11), which McVay said reflects the team’s commitment to getting back on track over the final two weeks of the regular season. Though he always stresses process over outcome, McVay admitted there is a different level of intensity this week because of the two losses.“I’d like to think that regardless of what the outcome is, it’s the same, but human nature doesn’t really allow that,” McVay said. “I know there’s an increased sense of urgency from us as coaches. I sense that from the players.”McVay said nothing changes in terms of the Rams’ preparations going into their final road game of the regular season, which includes the hand gestures and verbal cues the offense uses at the line of scrimmage to make adjustments Womens Brandon Allen Jersey , even after Arizona claimed wide receiver and return specialist Pharoh Cooper on Wednesday after the Rams placed him on waivers.Passing game coordinator Shane Waldron said there was no need to change signals despite the understanding Cooper would be giving his new team detailed information on audibles and other aspects of the offense.“I mean, there are some teams in the league where those signals or some of those things have been the same since 15 years moving forward,” Waldron said. “Some of those things, I think, are overvalued. You got to go out there and play football and execute at a high level. If you start worrying too much about hand signals or codewords you’re not allowing yourself to play fast, so we still feel we can operate as we have been operating.”As confident as Waldron is in the mechanics of operating the offense, McVay remains just as enthused about Goff, provided his quarterback uses the handful of plays that have hindered the Rams the past two weeks to improve.“Unfortunately, in him http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-ramik-wilson-jersey , we keep talking about two plays, and that’s the nature of the quarterback position,” McVay said. “But I would say this, we’ll continue to learn from it.”Goff has no doubts he and the Rams offense will reap the benefits, no vitamins necessary.“Again, we’re talking about things going bad when two weeks ago it was a much different conversation,” Goff said. “We need to fix some things and get some things ironed out and we will. I expect to do that this week.”NOTES: RB Todd Gurley (knee) and Justin Davis (shoulder) did not participate in the team’s walkthrough Wednesday. McVay expects Gurley will be available to play Sunday. … McVay has not decided whether WR JoJo Natson or DB Blake Countess will return kicks in place of Cooper.

Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsThe 2018 Los Angeles Rams were successful on the whole in many ways.Two years after going 4-12 in their first season since relocating back to Los Angeles, they won their first playoff game in LA. They won their first playoff game as a franchise since the 2005 NFL playoffs. They put together a playoff run to become NFC Champions. They made it to the Super Bowl validating a season that had been labeled Super Bowl or bust back in March.The Rams were excessively successful in many postseason outputs, save for one.Super Bowl LIII.With the offensive structure from the mind of HC Sean McVay stymied by the best coach of the modern (and perhaps any) era and the offensive line left grasping, the Rams’ offense put up a paltry three points on 260 total yards ruining a stellar defensive effort and opening the floodgates for questions to abound throughout the 2019 offseason concerning McVay, QB Jared Goff, RB Todd Gurley and the Rams’ window as a whole.So to close Revenge Week, let’s acknowledge that the only form of revenge the Rams could possibly be seeking exists in a single form: beating the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LIV.On Monday Nicholas Scott Los Angeles Rams Jerseys , we looked at the Los Angeles Rams being targeted this year due to their success in 2018 and the biggest revenge games on the schedule. Then, I looked at Goff and his quest for validation in 2019 with the Super Bowl stinker as the backdrop. Lastly, we previewed the Week 2 game against the New Orleans Saints game and the satisfaction that would come about if the Rams win thanks to the new pass interference challenge rule.To close things out for Revenge Week in a word?Closure.Yes, part of this goes back to Super Bowl XXXVI. The end of the peak of the Greatest Show on Turf and the birth of the era of Patriots HC Bill Belichick and QB Tom Brady. But much of it comes down to the end of last season. How could it not? Recency bias is always unavoidable. It’s the last taste from 2018. It’s the jumping off point for 2019.It’s the response the Rams are looking to deliver.So for the Rams to achieve real revenge, that response has to come in the form of beating the Pats and beating Belichick and beating Brady.And beating away the past.
