Please explain...

Re managing a combustible player or two... yeah I think they believe they can handle it because Wade handled it in Denver

We will see if they are right but this is not Scott Linenahan we are talking about. Coaches have to be able to handle all different kinds of personalities. They have a track record.

I personally would have been reluctant to do it but its clear they believe otherwise and there is history to support it

that they would team peters with talib but i think you are correct in that their teammates seem to like them. for instance, talib was voted team captain last year.

I didn't think pairing them was a good idea and posted that yesterday.

It's why I said maybe the Rams don't see it that way. I'm trying to see it from their perspective.

I think we've got to trust that the Rams are not going to put a bunch of people in that locker room that they feel are going to destroy or take over the team.

These are the same people identified that the culture needed to change last year and were successful in implementing that change.

They know about culture, they talked about culture, they value culture. That was one of the major themes last year.

They didn't suddenly forget that culture is important.

So I'm trusting that they are smart enough not to be tearing down the very thing they built last year.

They lucked into a good team because Whitworth was available.

That does not make them league-leading "culture" experts.

We have NO idea if this team can handle a renegade CB duo at their worst.

That actually reamains to be seen.

....

You luck into a Whitworth when you need a left OT in one of those rare years there actually is one in free agency.

Look around the league. The vast majority of good continuing starters at LOT are 1st or 2nd round picks and they play for the team that picked them.

Good FAs at LOT are rare.

Needing one the year there's one out there? That's luck.
