Re: NFL Insider confirms what many Ram fans suspect about their 2025 draft. (RF) - 15 days ago

I would agree to this proposed deal faster than Usain Bolt in the 100m. Move back 8 spots to go from zero 2nd round picks to two?? No brainer...Especially if we can snag Tyler Shough with one of those two picks.

DJ Reed to Lions - 8 weeks ago

Ugh...was REALLY hoping we could snag this guy. 3yrs/48 mil.

My question is- Who's #17 lol? - 8 weeks ago

Davante's first chance to show he's going to be a "We, Not Me" guy is to switch from #17 as it is already taken by a guy who is a star in his own right and is home grown. I know money talks, and he may hit Puke with a crazy offer, if the 17 means that much to him. If so, I hope Puka declines, but he did wear #12 in college, so I guess we'll see.

QuoteRams43 Whether FA, trade, or the draft which position do you consider to be most ‘must have’ to be in the SB conversation? Ideally, Snead will address all these and more this offseason, but exactly which one do you see as Rams current absolutely most needed? Agreed. We need a thumper in the middle that can shed blocks and, more importantly, not get trucked or dragged for 5 yards by the

Let's not forget the last time the Rams signed an aging, former Jet QB... - 2 months ago

I think the Rams brain trust at the time thought they would capture lightning in a bottle with an aging Broadway Joe back in '77. Epic fail. He only played in 4 games to a sub-55 rating. Yikes! Would history repeat itself if we went this route in '25?

Quoteferragamo79 I believe he ran a 4.38 40 Guy has put up fantastic numbers considering who he's had throwing to him in 2 of his 3 years. More importantly, he is as good as it gets in the "contested catch" category. Anyone remember the MNF catch against Tre White Week 1 of 2023 where he literally played defender and backhand snatched the ball away from White only to catch it in the

QuoteClassicalwit I don't remember him fumbling in that Super Bowl. Neither do I...What I do remember, is the beautiful run off the left side in the first half have where he stutter-stepped and juked his way for about 40 yards. Here's the run (at the 21:27 mark) He was truly an electric runner, but did not protect the ball well.

NYG and Daniel Jones - 3 months ago

QuoteRams43 Two things. I think Stafford is a FORMERLY elite QB, but he’s still pretty darned good when healthy. Certainly worth making happy and keeping in our SB window. The other thing is I think Stafford wants gauranteed to sooth his pride. His ego doesn’t like seeing lesser QB’s getting paid more. It’s more about those 2 things for Stafford than just the money, which he doesn’t need,

Re: I'm gonna spam it into existence - 3 months ago

QuoteRam_Ruler Every time I see a free agency post I'm going to mention Darius Slayton lol. He fits what we need so badly. 4.38 40 at the combine but is 6'1 and can win the jump ball. 4 700 yard seasons with the woeful giants. He cannot be covered without safety help, which will aid Nacua and Kupp. And I've read all kinds of giants forums that said he's a great teammate and a hard worker. He fits

Does anyone here think there is a chance he comes back in '25 now that he sees we are a true contender? Edit: Disregard the question as I now see it was asked earlier in the thread!

Agreed. And it allowed Philly to substitute - 3 months ago

Correct. Biggest play of the game for the reasons you stated in addition to the fact the penalty allowed Philly to substitute. Their D was GASSED from our long TD drive followed by their 3 and out and our subsequent no huddle drive. The penalty killed our momentum, cost us a first down and, perhaps most important of all, let them regroup and get some fresh legs in the game. I honestly belie

I know you can't believe every article you read on the internet, but... - 3 months ago

I saw an article several days ago stating that Kupp has had the SLOWEST speed in the first second of a route of any receiver in the league this year that has played a minimum of 300 snaps. If true, this would explain to a significant degree why there has been regression in his game. Being slow off the ball allows DBs to cover him up almost instantaneously, making it extremely challenging for him

Super Bowl Winning QB and Coach Combo - 3 months ago

Currently, there are only 5 active Super Bowl Winning QBs: Stafford, Mahomes, Wilson, Flacco and Rodgers. Let's face it, the last 3 are washed. There are 6 active SB winning head coaches: McVay, Reid, Harbaugh (John), McCarthy (although he just got canned), Payton and Tomlin. The only two teams to have BOTH legs of this combo are the Rams and the Chiefs. (Yes, Flacco and Harbaugh did it, as

Quotesean I think you are on to something, if the Eagles don't win it, there very well may be some sour grapes by Barkley. Frankly, I am surprised they did not play him. I fully expected Barkley to play and then sit him in the 3rd quarter or whenever he got it. Glad Dickerson still has the record. It will be hard for Barkley to have another similar season, and Henry is close to the end, so we

Yes, it was bitterly cold (especially in the parking lot), but the "Herd Brotherhood" was all the warmth we needed!

Since the Jets are having a lousy season, the tickets are a lot cheaper than normal. You can find club seats on Vivid Seats for under $100 per seat (of course, the fees will push it over $100). Hope you'll make it to the game!

First 5 years - Gale Sayers - 4 months ago

Knee injuries destroyed this man's career. He could truly do it ALL. Not only did he have the most electric moves ever (Barry Sanders is the only other person in his class in that regard), the guy was a fantastic receiver out of the backfield and also a Top-5 all time kick returner. In 1968, he was averaging 6.2 yards per carry (9 games) before tearing his knee up against SF. After that injur
