BenFred: Fired coordinator looks like Rams' scapegoat

I bet Rob Boras will get Nick Foles going.

That's what I blurted out, sarcastically, after the Rams fired first-year offensive coordinator Frank Cignetti on Monday.

Or, relieved him of his duties, if you prefer.

Boras, who was bumped up to assistant head coach/offense this offseason, just received another promotion.

His reward?

• A seemingly broken starter (Nick Foles), his recently-concussed replacement (Case Keenum) and a rookie not yet deemed ready to play (Sean Mannion).

• A turnstile offensive line.

• An uber-talented running back (Todd Gurley) who seems to have hit a wall —can you blame him?
