    if not for that two point conversion that was possibly already blown dead, the rams are very likely superbowl champs.

    i’m sad.

    Ernest called Puka a ‘goofy ass’ ?

    in fairness to ernest, puka is a goofy ass….

    ernest was just being…. earnest.

    i like puka though. i just think this is something one has to deal with when dealing with puka.

    I honestly believe there was no good argument for Maye being that close to Stafford in the voting.

    i do think it was close. maybe not quite that close.

    i’m honestly just surprised that kimes chose maye. i thought her west coast bias and slight rams affiliation would sway her towards stafford.

    i think her seahawks bias won out in the end! ha!

    I also think what Maye can do with his legs was a significant point in his favor.

    i wish stafford could run a little bit more. it’s painful watching him try to scramble.

    i’m still a little taken aback that mina kimes voted for maye. i think it was close, but i woulda thought she woulda voted for stafford.

    I have no idea what to make of that.

    below is the clip. it’s a little troubling. if the defense really panicked and didn’t know what to do when they got smacked in the face, then i have to at least question leadership on this defense.

    “It was my fault”- @JaredVerse1

    @Rams pro bowler Jared Verse takes the blame for their loss to the Seattle
    @seahawks. He says a young defense felt a sense of entitlement as the headed into the NFC Championship. Matt Stafford and the offense were everything they needed to be, but the defense didn’t respond emphatically enough when Seattle drew first blood. This one will sting for a while.

    i do think verse needs to show more end product, but i still like him. just not sure he can be the centerpiece for this defense.

    Not necessarily. I mean if you’re going to go that route, common sense would have said never to play the game of football in the first place.

    It’s part of who he is. His rookie year he refused to leave the game with a dislocated shoulder and stayed in to throw a touchdown. Common sense would have told him not to do that either.

    He has a passion for the game that matches his talent. If that’s fading, then yes walk away. If not, then, there is no other consideration.

    true.

    Reading between the lines, I would say that Kelley will have a big voice in his decision. She has already noted that he has made enough money to take care of the family forever and ever, and they don’t want him to sacrifice his health.

    He has to weigh the value of health versus the value of his legacy goals and love of the game.

    common sense would say retire. mvp or not.

    Given his current position as pass game coordinator, the Rams can’t block Scheelhaase from interviewing for offensive coordinator positions. If LaFleur wants to poach Scheelhaase away from Los Angeles and to his new staff in Arizona, the Rams can’t prevent that from happening – unless McVay promotes him to OC.

    yeah that was what i thought. if he is who they say he is, they gotta promote him. i believe they did the same with pleasant?

    I really don’t think its so bad. One of the nice things about having an offensive-wiz head-coach is the OC isnt as critical. McVay can handle the offense.

    i do wonder how much of an impact lafleur had on the running game this year which is the best it’s been in years.

    There’s talk of the Rams pursuing Ty Simpson, the Alabama qb. Not “insider” stuff, just mock draft speculartizing.

    I don’t think it’s a good idea, myself.

    that would be a terrible idea.

    terrell made an impact his freshman year in special teams – specifically as a returner. this kind of profile should definitely be on their radar.

    sorry. that was from when he was in high school.

    terrell looks physical in the highlight videos. forces a lot of fumbles. looks solid in run defense. even saw highlights of him rushing the passer.

    His special teams prowess was equally impressive, averaging 32.1 yards per kickoff return and 15.8 yards per punt return, with a punt return touchdown and a kickoff return touchdown to his name.

    Whether or not they add Lane, they need speed. They can of course add both a speed guy and Lane.

    my main point is it doesn’t have to be in the first round.

    lemon obviously would be a first round pick. but i could at least see the logic because he’d have the added benefit of being a return man. then eventually take over for adams. or maybe he even starts immediately if adams is cut (i hope not).

    but even if the rams need speed, it can be gotten in day 2.

    one reason i would support lemon as a draft pick which i didn’t think of before. he could double as a return specialist.

    but i still like lane. in the later rounds. looks like a mcmillan type out there who the rams were interested in. both did not have elite speed.

    i think a guy like lane would be intriguing. he’d be a second day pick. he’s stood out in the senior bowl so far.

    ja’kobi lane arm length

    Based on official 2026 Senior Bowl measurements, USC wide receiver Ja’Kobi Lane has an arm length of 32 5/8 inches. He measures 6’4 1/8″ and 196 pounds with a 6-foot-8 wingspan, boasting a long, lean frame ideal for winning contested catches.
    Height: 6′ 4 1/8″
    Weight: 196 lbs
    Arm Length: 32 5/8″
    Hand Size: 10 3/8″
    Wingspan: ~6′ 8″

    As it stands right now, my guess is that one pick is a DB and the other is a WR

    This is what I think, too.

    i would wait until later rounds. second and lower. not the first round. unless that player just totally blows them out of the water. maybe lemon is that guy.

    The Raiders plan to interview Seattle OC Klint Kubiak over the weekend and then make a decision on their head coach, per sources.

    As one candidate predicted, “it’s probably (Kubiak’s) job to lose.”

    well. that would be totally awesome. just awesome.

    Boom or bust but he’s built elite units before

    well mcvay needs to give him the horses to do it.

    defense too. draft real talent in the secondary. draft a return specialist. shore up the coverage units. i think drafting real dudes on defense will trickle down to the coverage units.
