Hands up who knows what "scrapple" is... - 7 weeks ago
Bonus points if you have ever had scrapple. lol We have this... um... let's call it food that's popular in this area called scrapple. I'm not sure if other parts of the US know what it is. But it is basically anything that's left over from a pig after all the traditionally edible parts are used. So basically they take the non-useable parts and grind them up... pretty sure they cook it and tby Atlantic Ram - Bucky's Pub
We seem to have festivals - 7 weeks ago
We have a state fair but I don't think we have anything called a county fair. We have the Apple Scrapple Festival but it's pretty small and the rides are as well. Still it's a well known event. Everyone know what Scrapple is? lolby Atlantic Ram - Bucky's Pub

Fans: Hey let's make the uniforms blue and white. Rams: "Impossible". I'm not sure why they can't pull it off but it just keeps eluding them. One of life's great mysteries.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I don't know that it concerns me - 7 weeks ago
Obviously it would be better to win early, I'm not suggesting that its not important. To some degree I feel like the first few real games are prep for the season... Regulars seeing action for the first time and getting into game shape. However, last season was as much about the defense learning and gelling as it was with injuries. Including seeing what they had in the secondary. one tipby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

and as excited as I am for the offense, I might be even more excited about the defense. Could both be elite? Seems like there is at least a reasonable chance.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Well sure but - 7 weeks ago
It doesn’t change their philosophy (at least as I see it) I think the Rams wanted to get stronger against the run up front and they did that to the degree of keeping the pass rush in mind. I’m not saying they are ears pinned all three downs. They are smart about it and I think they will be better against the run this season because the DL is gaining experience as well as bringing in talent. Iby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
While I do believe that… - 7 weeks ago
I don’t think the Rams are as concerned as some about stopping the run. Even Ford has some quickness to rush the passer. I think these moves have something to do with being more effective against the run but the bottom line is get to the QB. And if they can improve the run D while continuing to build a pass rush, then I think that is their current MO: Stopping the run is nice but getting to tby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

Will never understand that... - 8 weeks ago
Why even mention it? Almost like they were proud of announcing it. And in March? I think they even alluded to it much earlier that re-signing him would be unlikely. I don't think it was to motivate him. It was saying he wasn't in their future plans. Jones likely would have played the entire season if they just didn't say anything... or perhaps let him know there was at least a Lloyd Christmas'by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

Both… Journaliism’s jockey for going for it when he saw a crease and Goal’s jockey to try to close that crease. Personally I think that was reckless driving by both. Journalism‘s jockey had a lot of horse. He could have taken him outside and probably won by a length. Instead he chose to be close to the rail. I’d have to go back and see if he just got trapped or if there was an opportunity toby Atlantic Ram - Bucky's Pub
Disaster averted… - 2 months ago
Heart nearly dropped. Not sure but I feel like Goal Oriented’s jockey appeared to try to block him. I don’t know. I’d have to look at it again but for Journalism that’s just about as bad a trip as you can have. For him to still pull it out is remarkable. I mean it was a questionable move from Journalism’s jockey to take that crease but Goal Oriented basically was moved right into him. So lucby Atlantic Ram - Bucky's Pub

I would like to watch one game where I don't need a sedative. McVay seems to call off the dogs pretty early... at least I feel like I have seen him do this. And maybe this is a "go to vanilla asap" philosophy.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I like him too - 2 months ago
and I think McVay would too... I mean I think he would be McVay's pick... assuming he plays well this year. Something McVay said about how hard it is to defend against dual threat QB's makes me think that's something he is interested in. At this point I like everything about Sellers. My concern is he is a junior this season. But if he can sit a year or two behind Stafford his ceiling looks gby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Context never matters... - 2 months ago
Remember people saying Goff was better than Stafford early this season? Rams had a crap OL and both WR's were out. Goff had the offense spoon fed to him. Most QB's would excel with the ridiculousnesses of riches afforded to Goff. But context has never mattered. Brady cheats... doesn't matter, GOAT.

That's true but... - 2 months ago
Taylor wasn't available. But I get what you're saying. It wasn't reach. And I agree, the Rams got the guy they wanted... but it doesn't mean that Ferguson was the only target. Did they prefer Taylor but were just fine with Ferguson if Taylor didn't make it? Were both players in Snead's bucket? Personally I think that was the case. Could have been that if Ferguson also got chosen that Arroyo wby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I struggled with this - 2 months ago
because yes, every team says they got the guy they really wanted. The thing that makes me think otherwise is the Rams will trade up if they really want a player. They could have relatively inexpensively moved up (assuming they could find a trading partner). I think if they had Taylor significantly higher on their board then they would have likely found a trade partner. Now would they have takeby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Joe's sister was half his age at 4 years old - 2 months ago
How old is she now? The answer... he was his father's son. Or something. That said, I watched a couple of Bengal games... Burrow has been excellent. Reminds me a bit of Stafford's situation with the Lions, except the Bengals are better overall team than the Lions ever were with Stafford. So if we got Burrow at 32, sign me up for that.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
lol... got real quiet - 2 months ago
while the dude was talking about the Rams you could see the uncomfortableness in the room. And as soon as he was done they went right back to how they beat KC and Washington and no mention of the Rams. Would have gotten even quieter if someone had mentioned the possibility of Barkley getting hurt or wearing down. That O gets closer to average real quick.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
What if Shedeur plays lights out? - 2 months ago
I mean that's highly unlikely to happen in Cleveland but if they buy into him as a franchise QB then perhaps they have no reason to trade up for a QB... By the same token, the team with the first pick in the draft doesn't necessarily mean they need a QB either. And if you hold the #1 and can get 2 firsts this year and one next year... who knows what else, lol... and you don't need a QB then I wouby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

Question about Manning - 2 months ago
It's likely he stays in school and skips the 2026 draft. Kind of the Manning way... But what if you are guaranteed that the Rams will draft him and let him sit at least a year behind future HOF'er Stafford? Seems like too good of an opportunity to pass up... or they can wait until 2027 and let the Browns take him. The place QB's go to rot and die.

Point taken - 2 months ago
And I agree. If the compensation/money is right... welcome Back Mr. Ramsey. But I feel like some of the numbers for the Rams defense (and offense) is going to be skewed. The Rams are basically a tale of two halves last season. I expect the play of the defense, in PFF rankings, improved as the DL improved. The DL was pretty terrible for basically the first half of the season. Rams like theirby Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
No matter where the Falcons pick falls... - 2 months ago
if the Rams want a QB they will over-mortgage the farm to get him if they need to. So Atlanta's pick will definitely help but so will 2027's 1st... and more if they need it. But hopefully Atlanta loses every game and the Rams can keep their picks.by Atlantic Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Pretty exciting to me... - 2 months ago
I think the announcers make a difference. They need keep an eye on favorites if they make a move and then let the audience know to keep an eye on them. In this race, they missed where Sovereignty made a move and then all of a sudden he's fighting for the lead. That sucked. The announcer has the emotion for it but didn't set the watcher up for what was an exciting two minutes. But far from the besby Atlantic Ram - Bucky's Pub

I think a friend made me a tape in high school. I always respected them. I liked that they knew who they were and stuck to their guns. Starting at about age 12, I had a KISS phase, an REM phase, a Damned phase, a YES phase, an STP phase, a RATM phase, a Beck phase and now I'm in a TOOL phase. In that order.
