PURE CARDINAL OBSESSION


The #1 authority on St. Louis Cardinals baseball in Kent County, Maryland.
(And a little on the Orioles, Rams, Blues, Purdue Boilermakers, and Mizzou Tigers too, ever so often.)

School's out

The Rams' report cards are in, according to the Post-Dispatch. The special teams and secondary did horrible (F and a rather generous C-, respectively), but thankfully both of their coaches will be gone. Martz himself rated a C-, which I thought was a little low, but hey -- that must be why I'm not a reporter, because I'd probably give him around a B-. I mean, after all, he made the playoffs.

Here's the letter grades:
Quarterbacks - B (mostly thanks to the backups, otherwise A-)
Running backs - B-
Receivers - B
Offensive line - C- (rather generous, in my opinion -- too many sacks)
Defensive line - C+
Linebackers - D
Secondary - C- (also generous, as stated before -- not enough INTs!)
Special Teams - F (Wilkins gets a B in my book, it's not his fault the coverage stunk)
Coaching - C-

Yeah the O-line doesn't deserve that grade. Bulger deserves better than to have to absorb all that abuse. I couldn't even watch the Falcons it was so painful.
