I'm trying to understand why Dotson signs the deal right before free agency starts. He must not have wanted to leave LA. I doubt there was concern about the offer value decreasing if he waited. Anyone have thoughts on this?by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm not for paying guards but am for paying elite players. Great move. Good value. Super happy Mr. Dotson. He's set now.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Anyone know what his tender would have cost? I would think the amount is not material. Seems like a move to let him test the market and maybe score a comp pickby cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com

For me this is a big reason why the Super Bowl winning td pass by the chiefs was so successful. The motion makes it very difficult for the defense to label the receivers correctly and in the same way. When the dbs are not in agreement on their responsibility, they label the wrs differently, you see coverage breakdowns like that.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I'd be OK w 3 CBSs in the first 3 picks.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
The good news is we won't draft McCarthy.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
What sticks out to me...5 all pros on offense scored 19 points. 3 more in ot. They had two weeks to prepare and played on a neutral field. I was impressed w Chenal the lb.and Karlaftis the edge. Already knew McDuffie was great.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Had no issues with my youtube Tv. Worked great. I was watching about ten mins behind live for most of the game.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I agreed w the holding call on the coverage player. To me he definitely affected the progress of the receiver. Kc got two bad spots on third down. I liked the grounding call on Mahomes. No realistic way that ball is caught imo.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
For me the lesson is Corners are a big assist in winning. Good corners allow a team to play multiple schemes. And minimize big plays. Scheme the rush. But a team is best served w big time players at corner. And it is nice to have the best qb every game.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
JOff not making one play the entire game killed them. Rarely has a qb been so carried by his teammates and coaches. Make a play. Just one.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Bill? Haha.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Yes. Two thirds total. One in 2024 and one in 2025.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Olsen is good. He talks about the plays. Aikman only talks about how every player that just made a run catch or tackle is every fing play.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Rodney Harrison level thug @#$%&. All the penalties we have and those shots are clean? Man, players need to think and look out for each other. Hit clean. Hit hard. But let's all go home after the game.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Totally agree. McCarthy, in three games, never displayed potential as an NFL.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Excellent coach. Everyone saying he is just good please name some excellent coaches.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Here we lose.....by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Dallas always does this in the playoffs. So entertaining. Hope Packers kick the star off their helmets. I'm being to believe in Love.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't get how 6 dollars for a minimum of three hours of entertainment is a bad deal. What am I missing?by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I was totally done w Goff after 2nd quarter of the Miami. He was a disaster in that game. Pro qb that can't beat cover zero.... He might be a nice guy but I'm much happier with Matthew as my starting qb. Hope we kick his ass.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I agree with what you said. The value added from the new player over the replaced player is the important part. If adding a WR increases offensive output by x points over what Robinson brings. Versus the y points given up decreased by a new edge rusher over Hoecht. In my opinion, I'd go with whichever x or y is greater. One other factor is how easy or hard it is to find new players betby cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
This discussion reminds me of the Holt vs Champ decision in 1999. What are both your opinions on that one?by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't see a path to Dotson being on the team next year. The current Rams have a history of not paying second contracts for guards. They will leverage the front office staff to find the next Dotson. It is easy to see pay a good player. But if you pay Dotson that means you don't have money for other positions. I don't know what I'd do if I was the decision maker. Keeping this offenseby cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Penix has a great ability to feel the rush and evade it. He's going to be a great pro. Not counting the injuries...that's the big question. Plus he sounds like a great kid. Mature beyond his age after dealing with those injuries I bet.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Agreed. I don't think McCarthy has a chance as a pro. Too inaccurate, slow delivery. I wouldn't draft him. I can barely watch him play...by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Feel better fast BR. Glad you are back.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
For sure. Lockett is always open. He is criminally underrated and under used. Dangerous team if they can learn to play w discipline and block. But those are pretty tough asks this time of year.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
Seattle can't protect the qb. And struggles to run. They make alot of mistakes. But their weapons are explosive. They nerf themselves alot w alot of zero yard passing...probably due to protection and run game issues. Seahwaks will struggle w Steelers edge pressure. As most teams do. Game comes down to what kind of qb play the Steelers get. No one knows the answer to that one.by cool_hand_luke - RamsFootballFans.com
