    I wonder if Talib and the RAMS would entertain a move to FS after this year.

    I am in total agreement with your draft philosophy

    Short shuttle and 3 cone times for DBs (and WRs). Love it!

    I like both DB selections.

    They moved up for the RB to have their pick before they started coming off the board, so they must think his upside is great. Certainly superb in yards after contact which is impressive.

    The tackle they picked is shorter, but has good feet and long arms and a heavy punch. Could make a good guard and potentially RT or swing backup tackle.

    Couple things on the net say he ran hurt on the 4.79 and has run faster previously.

    Received good value for it imo.

    That is a low price tag. Rams must really think little of his potential to let him go for that much.

    I think it is 50-50 that they trade down. With this front office, I trust whatever they end up doing. 🙂

    One good guard and, imo, another developmental tackle who can start out as a backup tackle/guard.

    I believe arm length and functional strength (as well as smarts and nimble feet) are more important than height and weight, particularly at center.

    The rams are taking risk at their oline imo, more than any other position group. I’m sure they have a plan to promote from within, draft and pickup folks late in free agency.

    Only 1 million for quarterback of the Bortles caliber is an absolute steal Imo.

    in reply to: Rams sign Clay Matthews #99122

    I think Mathews played both inside and outside last year.

    If Mathews and Weddle have anything left, this could be a fun defense.

    I think the Rams got to be out of money after this one.

    Need probably one more cheap dline and one more cheap backup oline. I think. That’s about it. Plus draft some backups/groom for future years guys in the draft.

    Given the probable price tag, I’d say it would be a great deal. I believe he would be a significant upgrade from Mannion and when he departs in a year (likely imo), Rams could earn a comp pick.

    Might actually be the opposite. Plus they could flip roles to disguise coverages.

    He would be a pretty large gap filler on fourth and one!

    I figured they would keep him regardless but for sure if Whit had retired.

    Very resilient fellow. Glad he got to go to the Super Bowl with us.

    They had to a figured that Fowler had more positional value. Plus, they obviously know what they have on their practice squad. Plus I think they draft to offense of lineman one early ( first three rounds ) and one late

    $14 million, I consider that a bit high, but it is just one year.

    I’m looking at Michael Brockers to be traded or cut. Me thinks the reason Brockers has not been cut, is the Rams may have some trades to evaluate. Just a thought.

    Could happen, but we only have 5 defensive linemen. I am probably more for keeping Brockers than most.

    I agree with you as he can play nose.

    Rams are a FA destination!

    Good move on their part

    The next one we are waiting on is Michael Brockers to be cut.

    I think they will keep Brockers. He can play nose or DE.

    Sign fowler if the price is competitive .

    Let Suh walk and sign brockers and put them in those tackle.

    Sign Fowler or some other edge rusher .

    Keep peters this year and let him walk after.

    Extend talib with the intent he moves to safety when it becomes appropriate.

    Sign shields with the believe that his second and third your back will be even better than this first. Probably sign hill as the third or fourth quarter back depending on price.

    I think it takes all three main WRs to make the offense hum. With all three, who are somewhat but not completely interchangeable, they can do enough to maximize the gifts and diminish the shortcomings of each.

    Johnson, in this offense with the current players, is a decent #4 and okay(ish) #3. Better than I feared he might be at the beginning of the year, but if he was going to be “good”, I think we would have seen more by now. Paired with a true #1 WR or in a different offense he might be better.

    Cooks, woods and Kupp are a great threesome imo, they just all three need to stay healthy. If one goes down they need two TEs who can play and then go heavy to maximize their chance to win.

    We should have run more.

    We should have run Gurley more.

    A few toss sweeps or a couple more jet sweeps might have helped.

    Kupp, if healthy, changes this game.

    Defense played phenomenal.

    Cooks missed catches were tough catches. Would have been good if he’d been able to come down with one of them.

    Oline was enh.

    Goff played like the youngest QB to ever play in the super bowl. Still could see the talent.

    I’m glad they played in this game. I hope they get the chance to play it again next year or in the next couple.

    officiating wasn’t better in the past…….. it was less scrutinized and reviewed with technology that is outdated…….. today’s video HD technology and camera angles gives us views we never had in the past… it doesn’t mean that officiating is worse today than it was in the past… it’s most like better….

    BTW, the Saints were not flagged for a penalty until there was 5:39 remaining in the 3rd qtr…. New Orleans ended up being penalized only 3 times in a game that had more than 4 qtrs of football…..

    The perception among most fans has always been that the refs aren’t very good. I never agreed with that assessment but I would like to see replay applied to penalties. The important thing is getting the call right, no matter how that happens.

    I’m not sure about that. I think the flow of the game is moreimportant than getting more calls right.

    I personally believe human error is part of the game and that’s okay.

    It would be very poetic for a Rams ~10 year dynasty to begin with defeating NE in Brady’s last super bowl.

    Reynolds impressed me too.

    yes. absolutely. and everett also made at least one big catch that i can remember.

    Anyway for me the biggest thing was Goff with Gurley struggling early and a lot of drops that should’ve be catches he brought his team back and won it on the road in on of the most difficult places to do that.

    yeah. this is a milestone game for goff.

    now one game left to see exactly how we look back at this game by goff. but still a game where he grew up a little bit.

    Agree 100% that this was a growth game for Goff. He didn’t get rattled, played well with a limited running game and had clutch drives at the end of the half, end of the game and in overtime.

    Well played tough game by both teams.

    So happy the Rams won!!!

    Yes, there were some missed calls earlier in the game, but I don’t think there were many blatant missed calls.

    The pass interference by NRC was blatant.

    Doesn’t take away from the win at all imo. Great game by both teams. Don’t think anyone got hurt which is huge.
