Agreed on the Coaches Rock

All of us on this board know something about football.
But we know extremely little compared to NFL coaches, and we know even less the basis on which these decisions were made.
One of the things that has always plagued Ramsey is that he gets bored because playing only outside the other team just won't throw his way much. The "star" is one way to keep him involved and not bored. And remember what a physical guy he is. He's like another Strong Safety out there.
In today's NFL there has to be a lot more attention paid to the slot, who anymore can be some pretty large dudes. No more smurf nicklebacks. Ramsey as the star is often in position to cut off the quick short throw thus giving our pass rush time to bother the QB.
When you win a Superbowl using this concept, it is pretty hard to argue... until a different set of circumstances call for change.
They certainly know better than us.
Having said that, wouldn't it make more sense to get better talent "around" Ramsey than make him play other positions? Are our other CB's not good enough to play well if we didn't use Ramsey in the Star?
#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
