Will the money grabbing ever end? Nope, it's getting worse all the time. Will anybody miss these guys if they boycott? Not me, especially since I don't even watch it. Does anybody that works in the private sector get health benefits and salaries after they're done? Very few I'm sure. I know I won't so I have to save and plan for those days like most working Americans. I hope they donby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotealyoshamucci First, before anything ... I want to give a shout out to Shaq Griffin ... who had more INTs than hands on Monday night football. I will refrain from anything positive toward a seahawk the rest of the year. But that was truly transcendent of the sport. And I grew up near UCF so Im a bit of a homer too. Love these posts alyo but it's the other Griffin that only has one hand.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotedzrams Quotedzrams Quotejemach not sure that is looking good but I'm happy with what Woods is doing. I just need some TDs and he's there! Both Cooks and Goff were wayyyy undervalued in my league, so I drafted both. Cooks I'm keeping. Goff I'm thinking about trading in for Mahomes. For some reason he wasn't drafted. Is that a bad idea? Does it make me a bad Rams fan? Lol... I pickedby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
I appreciate the post Eternal. Like I posted after week 1, this is not meant to start a Cooks vs Watkins war. I think it's an interesting comparison since we essentially replaced Watkins with Cooks, and I think it's fun to track it week to week. Nothing more. For those that for some reason don't like it, they are free to skip over the thread!by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteSaguaro This forum is like our Ram clubhouse. We're all sitting around on the sofas in the "Touchdown" room hoisting a victory beverage the day after. Somebody says "Hey, remember what Pete Prisco said last week!" Everybody laughs, and clinks glasses together. We're having fun. We're bonding. We're laughing. And then you walk over with a bow-tie on and sby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
You know, like averaging less than 14 points a game over a season. Or knowing that our strongest part of our team is the punting unit. Or having a ceiling of 7 wins per season. You know, the good ole' days. They were way more enjoyable! No, not really. Of course I'm enjoying this! What red-blooded Rams fan wouldn't??? :thumbsupby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemerlin Cooks has drawn two huge PI penalties thus far as well. His impact to this offense cannot be overstated thus far. Good point Merlin. Those are hidden yards that are very valuable. BTW, I thought both of those calls were good calls.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

The Rams are a far better team and should just dominate from the opening whistle to the end of the game. This should be fun to watch.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotemax You want to compare them? then you need targets, and drops. And yards, and catches, and TDs Well, if drops were included at Pro Football Reference I would surely include them. By the way, I also looked at ESPN and NFL but could not find them there either.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotemax The problem with it then is its deceiving when you look at the percentages. One guy has 100% and the other guy has 60%. It looks bad for the 60%, but its basically meaningless in comparing the 2 WRs. Drops rate is much more important. I get what you're saying but unfortunately the source doesn't say anything about drops. But, like The Professor said, knowing how many targets he had isby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
No that's not what it means. 8 targets, 5 catches. I remember he had 2 PIs called on long balls but I don't recall the 3rd non-catch. By the way, I'm getting these numbers from Pro Football Reference.by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

I thought it would be interesting to keep a running comparison between Cooks and Watkins during the season. It's meant in fun and not in any way an indictment on anybody or anything. So here's after one week:by RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com

Quotewaterfield Not sure by what you mean "OK". Of course you have the accepted "logic" on your side. That's a given.

The final piece to the puzzle is now in place. This is going to be fun watching this defense this season! My hat is off to the Rams organization. I think they've put a great roster together, and they are paying their stars. From what I've read we are in good shape with the cap moving forward so that we can also pay Peters and Goff when their times come up. Man, it's hard to realize thatby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteAlbaNY_Ram On a team with a pro-bowl secondary and an all-pro DL that's exactly what the Rams need. (And exactly why Tree is no longer a Ram. When I figure out a term that is the oppositee of 'tackling machine' I will post it with a picture of Ogletree.) Along with Barron - who is one of the leagues best run defenders - guys like Kiser and Littleton (and Wilson? and Hager? and Howard? aby RamsFanSinceLA - RamsFootballFans.com
