Because following the Rams blueprint has become topical again this week, been thinking about all the elements that had to be in place to make that strategy viable.

From my vantage point, an incomplete list of what might be required to replicate it at a championship level…

If your team has most/all these as a foundation, absolutely go all in.

If not, still might generate more wins near-term & that’s fun, too!

But as we get closer to Draft, and after NFL’s March Madness, I appreciate what LA continues to accomplish (and not just LVI) more & more.

Yeah, a lot of things have to go right for it to work.

Most importantly you have to draft well on the second day.

My list on team-building would include:
1. You need an elite QB, who can make a no-look-pass, to an elite-WR,
in the clutch, late in the 4th quarter, of the super bowl.

And I totally forgot to include: Maintain a Rolodex of retired safeties who study your scheme in their spare time, stay in shape, and can step in on a moment’s notice to lead you in tackling in the postseason, if necessary.

Yeah, this media ‘blue print’ stuff can be pretty silly.

How bout copying the Tampa ‘blue print’ ? Step one – go get the GOAT.

Why not the EAGLES blueprint in 2018 ?

Maybe the Broncos in 2016? The Seahawks in 2014? Ravens in 2013?

I personally favor the Dolphins blue print from 1972-73.

So many blue-prints.

“How can the Rams afford another star”. The salary cap is real. Some teams just have smarter people upstairs. Rams also draft well. Get lots of starters on the cheap.
