I don't know if this writer/site has any credibility but I thought it was interesting after we've been hearing the Rams are getting Goff ready to play. So which is it ? Do they love him or hate him ?

After an embarrassing loss to the New York Giants across the pond spearheaded by another abysmal Case Keenum performance, the outcry for change in Los Angeles has become borderline deafening.
From all recent reports, fans might be getting exactly what they’ve been wishing for very soon on multiple levels — even if it isn’t what the coaching staff wants.
Fans and media members alike have been calling for Rams coach Jeff Fisher’s head. Even more have been clamoring for the Rams’ top draft pick Jared Goff to start under center.
And while Goff has stated he feels ready for his number to be called, it was reported Saturday that the Rams brass still prefer current third-stringer Sean Mannion over their prized No. 1 pick overall Goff.
Two separate NFL sources recently told John McMullen of Today’s Pigskin that the Rams’ coaching staff is far more comfortable with Mannion as the backup.
if this [decision] was made in a vacuum, Mannion would be the backup on game days, and the one preparing to take over the Rams offense after the next egregious Keenum throw.
With how overwhelmed and lost Goff looked in preseason, this actually should come as little surprise. However, as McMullen so aptly pointed out, the politics of actually having Mannion next in line ahead of Goff after what the team gave up to nab him in the draft, is completely untenable.
As it is — for better or worse — Goff remains next in line awaiting the next grievous Keenum duck.
Moreover, fans may be getting both their quarterback and head coaching wishes sooner than they likely expected according to Fred Roggin of NBCLA:

#Rams fans want Jeff Fisher fired. NOT gonna happen now. Lets just say the next month is critical.

While firing Fisher is unlikely in the next couple of weeks, Roggin reported the 22-year coaching veteran has exactly one month to redirect the course of his floundering team.
