Drained by another last-minute defeat, another unsuccessful "home" game in London, Rams coach Jeff Fisher refused to change course. Another season headed to the same 7-9 bull.

Fisher said before he was even asked Sunday afternoon at Twickenham Stadium, anticipating the long two weeks ahead, "The quarterback is not the reason, by the way, that we lost three games. I'm staying with Case (Keenum)," .

Keenum had been picked off four times in a 17-10 defeat to New York, which included roughly as many effective forward passes as a typical game at the Cathedral of Rugby. His final errant lob, the result of a miscommunicated hand signal with Rams receiver Brian Quick, could have been fair caught by Giants cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie.

The Rams' caravan has taken them from St. Louis to Oxnard to Irvine to Thousand Oaks to Los Angeles and now to London over the last 10 months, carrying the same burdens that have plagued Fisher's entire five-year tenure.

It's past time to see what No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff has to offer. Fisher cut down that storyline before it could grow legs, playing better offense than any other Ram on Sunday.

Fisher said, "Take a look at the tape. See who's responsible for the interceptions. I'll make changes at receiver before I make a change at the quarterback position," .

Fisher's stance has neither been surprising nor sensible. Receivers had been part of the problem on three of Keenum's picks, but that doesn't account for the other 49 passing plays that mostly led to nowhere. The Rams failed to score on their final 11 drives. Keenum knew that his final throw was hardly his team's only failure.

A dejected Keenum said after the loss, "I've got to give our guys a chance. A few plays before that we had some chances, too. A little bit better balls. I think Mike Thomas scores if I throw a better ball on that, and I think Bradley scores if I throw a little better ball on that, too."
