Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner, 38, announces his retirement | NFL
Original at Seattle Times

Kurt Warner said goodbye to a career that seems the stuff of sports fiction. The 38-year-old Arizona Cardinals quarterback announced his retirement Friday after a dozen years in a league that at first rejected him, then revered him as he came from nowhere to lead the lowly St. Louis Rams to t...
Kurt Warner, thanks for the memories
Original at Turf Show Times
• Fri, Jan 29
By VanRam Kurt Warner Kurt Warner is retiring. The man who led the St. Louis Rams to glory, from zero to hero, is hanging up his cleats. And unlike some other quarterbacks who get more than their fare of media attention, I suspect Warner's pretty sincere about it. He's a had a great career that seemed like i...

By VanRam Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo told the PD that he wants to speak with the Rams all-time leading receiver Isaac Bruce about the wide receiver coaching vacancy.

• Wed, Jan 27
By VanRam It's been a rough patch for the St. Louis Rams since we hung out the shingle for Turf Show Times back in September 2006. That year, as you may recall, the Rams were a team holding on, barely, to the touchstones of past glory, scratching out an 8-8 season under a rookie head coach. Gradually, the pa...

Rams review: running backs
Original at Turf Show Times
• Tue, Jan 19
By VanRam For the Rams there's Steven Jackson and everyone else, and that's where the problem lies. No credible backup and a flaccid passing game left the Rams with a one dimensional offense that was easily shut down by opponents week after week. Lacking a legitimate threat behind Steven Jackson als...
Rams review: tight end
Original at Turf Show Times
• Mon, Jan 18
By VanRam With the notable exception of RB Steven Jackson, the Rams desperately need playmakers on offense. We've experienced and discussed that need at WR, but for a team implementing a West Coast offense a quality tight end is a must-have component. This season, Rams tight ends caught most of thei...

Opinion: 2009 by the numbers: offense
Original at Turf Show Times
• Mon, Jan 4
By VanRam On the surface, this looks like the same old shoddy Rams pass protection we'd grown accustomed to, but it belies a much improved offensive line performance. Take away the 12 sacks allowed through the last two games - 8 yesterday, EIGHT! - and the Rams would be among the 15th most sacks rathe...
The Rams and Brandon Marshall

By VanRam I'm surprised the news of Broncos WR Brandon Marshall's benching hasn't made for more discussion here at TST. The St. Louis Rams, starved for receivers, could use a talented guy like that, but the team's reluctance under GM Billy Devaney to take on players with, ahem, character issues has b...

Opinion: Rams tossed around by the Titans for their 12th loss of the season
Original at Turf Show Times
• Sun, Dec 13
By VanRam The most disappointing unit of the day had to be the offensive line. Inexcusably weak effort. They were dominated from the start, and the Titans, smartly, got them to respond. Not even a banged up running back doing his best to carry the team and a rookie QB in need of a little extra effort from th...

The Rams are getting younger across the board, and rebuilding the offensive line for the future is now the priority. Pace's release also ups the likelihood the Rams will take an OT in the NFL Draft next month, li...
