ESPN Predicts Los Angeles Rams RGIII and Another Lost Season
Three of the past four years, the Los Angeles Rams have had seven wins. Being that it is now year five in the Jeff Fisher era, fans are expecting this team to take the next step and make the playoffs, or at the very least, get over the .500 mark.
ESPN did 10 bold, but realistic predictions for the 2016 season and heres what happened to the Rams:
"“The Los Angeles Rams use four different starting quarterbacks, including Robert Griffin III. But they finish 7-9, once again failing to deliver Jeff Fisher’s first winning season since 2008 and his seventh in 22 years as an NFL head coach. Stan Kroenke announces after the season that Fisher will return to try again for that elusive nine-win season, and would we all please leave him alone now so he can go meet with the Six Flags people about the new stadium.”"
By the looks of it, the Rams didnt solve their quarterback issue this offseason according to ESPN as writer Dan Graziano predicts them to use four starting quarterbacks including RGIII. Case Keenum isn’t the perfect quarterback Fisher expected him to be and Foles struggles when he takes over.
This leaves the Rams signing Griffin which actually very well could happen as he is an option in free agency. Snead and Fisher have discussed that they will search all options at quarterback. Whether or not this would be a good move is yet to be seen.
The bad news in this prediction is that the Rams have their third straight “Fisherball” season in which they win seven games. One could only hope that if that were the case that the owner Stan Kroenke would pull the plug and fire Jeff Fisher, but that isn’t the case in ESPN’s crystal ball.
So to conclude everything. In 2016 the Rams get RGIII, go 7-9, and keep Fisher. Could we be more pleased? It looks like we have a lot to look forward to in 2016…
