Rams Banking on Everett; He’s Banking on Them

Jim Everett better be a franchise player because the Rams gave half of it away to obtain him. Since our ticket money will be spent for his megabuck salary, we fans expect to see the arm of John Elway and the sagacity of Dan Marino. Otherwise, we will be disappointed.

Meanwhile, while the whiz kid learns the system, the Rams should sign Henry Ellard and give Steve Bartkowski some help. Or will their coffers be empty, along with their heads?
