Heal yeah! The Rams are going back to the old school blue and white!

Rams Evolve 2017 Uniform with Fan Vote

They are taking fan votes on the details, but finally the correct colors are back!

I'm really surprised the blue and white was so popular. You'd have to be mid-50-ish to even remember when the Rams wore those colors since they stopped wearing them in 1972. When we talked about the Rams new LA uniforms last season, it seemed like the overwhelming majority favored the blue and yellow.

I hope the Rams don't waste money on Romo just to get a big name. They really need to address their receiver corps as both Britt and Quick could be gone in free-agency. I wouldn't mind holding on to Britt but we need more receivers who can get open. I don't know how the Rams address their offensive line problems.

They are rolling with Goff.

I think they will try to make a run at Pierre Garcon and another WR, like Cooks or Stills. Britt and Quick can kick rocks.

Problems abound at WR and OL especially if Britt, their only decent one leaves. Not a good setup around Goff. Compare that to Prescott who has the best OL in football and a very talented receiver corps with Bryant/Beasley/Williams.

I'm more partial to the blue and yellow. It probably won't matter though. They will probably be partial to whatever uniforms in which they win a championship. That tends to stick out more and you know teams are pretty superstitious when it comes to winning.

The helmet, pants, and logo look fantastic IMO, but I think they'd do well to get rid of the bronze/tan accents. They look out of place now.

I agree and didn't even realize the gold accents were still there til I saw the full uniform. If they're trying to put the St. Louis Rams behind them, it needs to go. Otherwise, it's basically the same road uniform with different color pants.

Wonder what the home uniform will look like.

Supposedly he is friends with Snead and McVay. Just a social visit.

Rams addressing two of their needs signing LT Whitworth from Cincy and a younger Pierre Garcon, in Robert Woods (ex-Trojan).

I like it, so far.

Whitworth will be a quality player for at least a year but his age is concerning. He's reaching the point where many offensive linemen take a huge nosedive in performance. Woods has been abysmal for the Bills. Good 3rd string WR to have but not really the #1 guy the Rams need.

He did all right last year but he's far from the #1 WR the Rams desperately need. His primary advantage is speed and that's been sapped by injuries.

My first desire was to get a left tackle. Good job there. This, hopefully, immediately improves two positions, tackle and guard, as it moves*the holding machine to a guard spot. *Though I've read that the Rams will try Robinson at the right tackle spot. Hmmmm. Maybe he can improve upon Havenstein's down year, Havenstein improve at a guard postilion so that we see improvement in 60% of the line.

Still seems rather random considering the rumors a former Colts blogger is fueling with Manning possibly having ownership stake with the Colts(don't buy that either)

Yet he's having dinner with the Rams

You usually don't see teams signing FA's who are older than the head coach.

He'll hold down the fort but the Rams really need to draft at that position.
