If you were one of the souls brave enough to stomach 60 minutes of Rams-49ers late Monday night, you know that the Rams have serious issues as an offense. Starting quarterback Case Keenum was abysmal against the 49ers. The Rams offense was built around a purely horizontal passing game, and San Francisco was able to sit within the first 10 yards of the line of scrimmage and cover everything.The presumption of many observers is that this should never have happened. Los Angeles may have placed a first-round tender on Keenum to make sure they didnt lose him this offseason, but he was still supposed to be the backup. The Rams traded up to the No. 1 overall pick to select Cal quarterback Jared Goff, and most first-round quarterbacks these days play from Day 1, for better or worse. Unfortunately, Goffs preseason was objectively terrible. He completed just 44.9 percent of his passes, throwing two picks and fumbling twice, while taking four sacks in 49 dropbacks. This caused the Rams to pump the breaks on Goff. He was inactive as the teams No. 3 quarterback in Week 1.Well level with you -- numbers like Goff posted in the preseason arent common. In the preseason, schemes are vanilla, dumpoffs are plentiful and quarterbacks generally play better than Goff did. But we also shouldnt use that poor preseason as a disqualifier. Lets go back to 2009 and look at the rookie preseason stats of every quarterback drafted in the first two picks: Hank Greenberg Jersey .875,000, avoiding arbitration. Clippards deal Monday means all eight Nationals players who filed for arbitration wound up settling before a hearing. Harvey Kuenn Jersey .C. -- When North Carolina freshman Ryan Switzer reported to training camp in August he was a little miffed to learn he was third on the depth chart at punt returner. https://www.cheaptigers.com/ . White came in fourth place in the event. He was the two-time defending gold medallist. The gold medal went to Swiss snowboarder Iouri Podladtchikov. George Kell Jersey . There are surprises among the Vezina candidates, but most of the others are standard top-tier performers, even if the two Hart Trophy runners-ups have never been quite as good as they have been through the first half of the season. Michael Fulmer Jersey . The Clippers were angry about blowing a big lead; the Kings didnt like being in that kind of hole and nearly digging themselves out only to lose. Daniel Ricciardo said Esteban Gutierrez is doing a less good job than any other driver at obeying blue flags after complaining about him at the German Grand Prix.?While negotiating traffic late in the race, Ricciardo took to his radio to sarcastically tell Red Bull: Esteban is my favourite, I love this guy. The response from race engineer Simon Rennie was: Dont worry, hes doing this to everybody, not just you.It comes just a week after Lewis Hamilton made a rude gesture from the cockpit towards the Haas driver after being held up in Hungary, something Gutierrez complained had been disrespectful. Ricciardo said his frustration was compounded by the fact other drivers have recently voiced their displeasure to the Haas driver.Explaining his radio message, Ricciardo said: To be honest, off the track I have no problem at all with Esteban. I actually think hes onee of the nicest guys! But just on the track lately, its come up at the last few races, a few of us havent been that impressed with the blue flags.ddddddddddddWeve discussed it in drivers meetings. Ive been in that position, I know that it sucks to move out of the line and let the leaders through. But it just seems in particular in the last few races everyone else is doing an OK job and it seems like hes doing a less good job than the othes.A bit of frustration - I was obviously trying to say that as politely as possible. But yeah, I think because hes been told that some of us arent that impressed with his blue flag [driving] I thought the message would have gone through. But today ... I lost more time behind him than anyone else. ' ' '
