Rams Sign Offensive Tackle Ryan McKee

With the loss of Jacob Bell and Richie Incognito the St. Louis Rams are running low on offensive lineman. The Rams signed offensive tackle Ryan McKee to the roster on Tuesday. McKee is a 6'6" 290lb lineman from Southern Mississippi. McKee went undrafted during the 2009 NFL Draft but was signed as a free agent by the New York Jets. Ryan earned second team All-Conference USA honors twice and lead Southern Mississippi to the New Orleans Bowl as a senior. Ryan started 40 consecutive games in his career, and recorded more than 80 knockdown blocks as a senior.

St. Louis Rams Finally Cut Richie Incognito


Tuesday the Rams finally cut OFFENSIVE Guard Richie Incognito. I guess Steve Spagnuolo does have more backbone than Scott Linehan. After watching Richie arguing with coach Spagnuolo on Sunday I had my doubts we would ever remove him from our roster.

The Rams drafted Richie in the 3rd round of the 2005 NFL Draft even though he was hurt and would not be able to play until 2006. While with the St. Louis Rams for 4+ years Incognito played in 44 games, at both Guard and Center. Richie known as a hot head has not disappointed while in St. Louis. Richie's two personal fouls Sunday in a 47-7 loss to the Tennessee Titans appears to have been the last straw.

Richie who should thank his lucky stars for the money and time he earned in St. Louis did not leave before saying these words;
"So in part, I feel like a great weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I get an opportunity to go play for a new team in a new city. I can get away from the negativity that has surrounded me, that has been surrounding my entire career here in St. Louis. So that I’m looking forward to.”

Well I will say what most Rams fans are thinking. Richie you come across as an idiot and as you walk away with that weight removed off your shoulders take a look back at us Rams fans, we all have out finger flipped up to say goodbye!

St. Louis Rams Captains For Week 5

The St. Louis Rams have announced their three Team Captains for this weeks game against the Minnesota Vikings. Offense - Richie Incognito, Defense - Clifton Ryan, Special Teams - Kenneth Darby.
I see now why we lack leadership on Sunday. Incognito takes stupid penalties, and gets benched for a play earlier in the year. Alex Barron gets a 5 yard penalty and gets benched for half of a game. Now Incognito is the Offensive Captain are you kidding me. How in the world is he the leader or captain of the offense? I know the captains don't mean much but if you are a player on this team you have to wonder what is going on.
