    McVay struggled against Morris last year when Morris was working with less talent. This was bad all around though. Jeez.

    Brock Purdy's average throw went 4.4 yards downfield for #49ers. The only game with a shorter ADOT in his career was 2.3 in 2022 NFC title game vs Eagles when he didn't have a functioning elbow. (Previous low in a healthy game was 4.5 vs Dolphins in Week 16 2024)

    Crazy finish to the Western Michigan vs. Michigan game. I think Weatern Michigan has a legitimate complaint.

    But at the moment I don’t have the kind of documentation that would prove that in a court of law.

    It’s probably right though.

    I see that the Vikings cut Johnny Hekker. I didn’t even realize that he was in Minnesota. Seems like yesterday that he was one of the only bright spots on the Rams.

    Maybe it means they werent crazy about the WRs they had on the roster. I would think Whittington or Mumpfield is getting cut?

    It certainly makes you wonder about the motivation behind it. I like what Whittington brings to special teams, so I hope he sticks around. Maybe they like Daniels better than Whittington? They have similar frames, but Whittington is faster. I’d be surprised if they were already giving up on Mumpfield. Granted he doesn’t appear to be a star in the making, but I thought he looked like he could be a reliable contributor.

    Another thing that I like about this is that If the Rams knew they weren’t going to keep Hunter, then getting anything for him is good as far as I’m concerned. I do wish that Atwell could contribute to the return game though.

    My favourite Canadian. There’s already been several documentaries made about Terry Fox, including an ESPN 30 for 30, but I can’t wait to see this one. I doubt that it makes its way to American theatres though.

    While I was aware of the Leonard/Clippers story, I hadn’t really started caring or kinda paying attention to it until he was going to be traded to the Raptors. It doesn’t sound like a resolution is near. I don’t even really understand who is leading this investigation. Is it the commissioner who works for the owners? Or is there a 3rd party, and if there is a 3rd party, is the NBA obligated to follow the findings and recommendations if Balmer faces a penalty?

    I’m ok with them. I appreciate the font used on the numbers and am grateful that it appears the numbers are not made from that weird looking rubber they use for the other jerseys. I don’t think that I will ever embrace the broken horn on the helmet, however.

    Okay.

    Had 2 or 3 hours to savor the flavors.

    Big dice roll at a position that COULD be upgraded, but didn’t need to be.

    They are now without their 1st round pick for next year. That means that if Nacua goes out before the trade deadline, the Rams are powerless to get a gamechanger to replace him. Or…whoever.

    Myles Garrett is better than Verse – short term – but they have a lot less ammo on hand to make a mid-season adjustment.

    Not sure. If they win it all this year, fine.

    I just said the same thing to a friend via text, but my text was full of typos and grammatical errors.

    I also added that I thought Verse didn’t progress as much as I had hoped he would last year, but I was still excited/hopeful about him being a Ram.

    If Young stays healthy and Stewart develops, this could be a generational defense for the Rams.

    Yeah, that’s a good point. Devante hasn’t publicly aired any grievances about that situation. Maybe, there is a way to keep a player abreast about potential plans to trade him and still maintain a good working relationship.

    I get McVay’s regret about how he handled things with Goff. However, had he been transparent with Goff and told him that the Rams were going to explore trading him and then the trade didn’t come to fruition, how would that have impacted their relationship moving forward? I’m not trying to defend McVay, as it doesn’t even seem like he’s defending himself in this case. It’s just something I wonder about. It seems like a difficult and maybe even risky conversation to have with your starting qb.

    So unless they’re coming off of a bye, it’s a ridiculously short week for the Rams. Furthermore, it’s happening in the same season where they’re going to be playing a game in Australia and then coming back to prepare after putting their bodies through two extreme time changes. Sometimes I hate the business of the NFL.

    In fact he may have the best legs of any decent starting qb they’ve had since I first started watching them. Not a Vick, but good enough.

    Yeah, i stand corrected on the mobility thing. He’s in the Purdy category as far as running. He’s actually a bit faster than Purdy according to 40 times.

    Though, fwiw, the analyst in one of the vids i posted up there said Ty was not very accurate when passing on the run.

    Chris Simms on the topic of Simpson throwing on the run (from his podcast on this year’s QB class):

    “…you know, the backyard plays, he’s really damn good at that. Escaping from the pocket, like legit ability. And then the ability to not only throw the ball really well on the run, but also can do that I’m running the full speed, and then let me get straight and like pop my feet real quick and make a more advanced throw. And can pop his feet and get it in the position again.”

    He signed with Vegas.

    Just as well. Having two rookie receivers with the monikers E.J. and C.J. would show a lack of foresight and reflect poorly on the organization as a whole.

    I guess I understand every pick they made, so I’m not heartbroken by this draft. The Simpson pick in particular makes it more of a wait-and-see Rams draft than any other in recent memory. I had been hoping that they would have taken a receiver like Brazzell in round 2, but I get the need for a TE for this year and the future and Klare is a good one. I also wish that they had found a punt returner as well. I’m still not in love with Xavier Smith in that role.

    I also include McDuffie being part of this draft (next year’s too), and I love that pick.

    I see they also signed WR, EJ Williams from Indiana. He’s taller with decent straight line speed. So far Williams and Peterson from Wisconsin are the players that I’m at least somewhat familiar with. I like them both. I could see them making the practice squad this year.

    EDIT: actually, I’m not sure if Williams signed with the Rams, might a Raider. Wait and see I guess.

    I don’t understand what that description means by “lack of size.” A person who weighs in at 327lbs is not usually lacking in size, not even if they’re a nose tackle in the NFL. He does have noticeably short arms though. I like it when the Rams draft DTs though. I hope he sticks around and becomes a space eater.

    Both Seattle and San Francisco fans are happy about the pick. Radio people in NoCal are very pleased.

    I was listening to PFT Live this morning and Chris Simms said the same thing. He is friends with Kyle Shanahan and mentioned that Shanahan said he was bothered/worried by the fact that the Rams had the 13th pick were going to add a player who would be immediately impactful to an already good roster.

    I agree that the pick makes sense though. I was hoping that the Rams would get a QB in the first round the year that they took Verse. I thought Stafford only had a year left back then. If they are picking late next year, it will be tough to find Stafford’s heir apparent. Hopefully Simpson doesn’t have to see the field this year.

    Ross Tucker has several pre draft discussions about Ty Simpson. Cosell mentions McVay specifically as part of his talk.
