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.
An entire overhaul of the team will need to take place - besides running back Stephen Jackson - if the Rams ever expect to be playoff contenders again. This is a big process and will take time.
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.
While nearly winning, the fact that the team only scored 7 points doesn't bode well for the Rams' offense. Unfortunately for Steven Jackson, he gets no help.
Their defense isn't much better, the Rams rank as one of the worst defense teams in the league and opponents on offense can do whatever they please.
The only player the Rams have worth the price of a ticket is RB Steven Jackson. Jackson is averaging nearly 5 yards per rushing attempt in 09'. Jackson's best season up to this date was in 06' when he rushed for over 1,500 yards and 13 touchdowns.
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.
If I was Steven Jackson, I would do whatever it takes to get out of St. Louis. It's going to be a long time before this team has potential. - 30542
