I've heard that one time after time. Even for a star QB "being a disruption" is highly questionable.
It's morale. The team sees that a highly productive player and team leader, someone who increases their chances of winning and does everything the right way, wants to be traded.
The perception is, produce and do everything right and the Rams don't sign you.
Do NOT underestimate Donald's impact on that team. Everyone who plays with him or against him, coaches him or coaches against him, knows that he is a rare generational talent and one of the top 3 or 4 players in the league.
You don't want anyone on the Rams team thinking management doesn't know how to value that.
....
As I said in another post (before I saw this one), Eric Dickerson was a once in a lifetime player too and IMO, played a more valuable position. We got to the same amount of SB's with him as we did without him. The same goes for the teams he went to after us.
As for morale, I remember the Rams seemed to play just as hard without ED. We still signed other players who played well. Money>morale when it comes to today's athletes.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
