Rams Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
One thing the last three weeks of Rams football has shown is that the team's problems are a lot deeper than the head coach.
There was a momentary period of optimism after Jim Haslett was named to replace Scott Linehan following an 0-4 start, games that were lost by a combined score of 147-43.
