Participanti just find it hard to believe that folks think that Goff is not capable of winning a Super Bowl in LA. He was 2 dropped passes by Brandon Cooks to win it 2018.
He and his 9 fingers pulled within 7 when his number 1 defense turned to Swiss Cheese in Wisconsin. Goff and the Rams beat the shit out of the current NFC Champion (TB) in their backyard. He’s more than capable to win…..
He and his 9 fingers relieved Alfred E Newman (wolford) in Seattle to keep the Rams alive this season. Does any remember Wolford’s scramble prior to the one he got hurt where he slid well before the 1st down marker on 3rd down?… If Goff did that, folks would still be hammering him. Who made the decision to start Wolford over GOff that game?
the question is, …is McVay and his gambler Les Snead GM capable? He’s a fucking choker, curled up in the Super Bowl before the coin was even tossed sucking up to Billichick like a school girl…… He didn’t prepare his team for SF last year and got eliminated.
You can’t pin the last 2 seasons on Goff, but you can pin it on his contract that impacts the roster and draft… who fault is that?
BTW, is anyone concerned of the current coaching exodus???? Why is that happening?

ParticipantHe signed up Snead and McVay, and he gives them the tools they request. Look around the league, and take a look at some franchises where the owner meddles. Look at the decades of BS endured by the Al Davis Raiders and Jerry Jones Cowboys, and so on.
Sometimes it’s OK to meddle….. Fords gave Matt Millen all the freedom in the world in Detroit.
I think Les is in way over his head… he’s like a degenerate gambler trying to play catch up on a Monday Night Football game bet to make for his Sunday’s losses…
He’s gambling the future on an old horse at QB when he had a more than capable QB who was combat proven to win huge games.
BTW Jerry Jones and Al Davis have 3 SBs each and despite a recent lack of success on the field, they have the 2 best brands that the NFL has ever had…..
Rams are in a world of shit if Stafford gets hurt behind his 40 year old left tackle.
I think the Rams should’ve waited 1 more year with Goff to rebound from his 3-4 game slump from this season… after all , it was a COVID season…it was weird for everyone….like Goff said in the article, he’s resilient…. that showed in the NFC Championship game. I’m not sure a QB like Stafford could’ve won that game under the same circumstances, not many QBs have….
Let’s hope that Stafford doesn’t have the same choke gene that his childhood buddy Kershaw has… it took a ******special 44 win baseball season for Kershaw to finally win.

ParticipantHas Detroit been good at ‘anything’ in the last decade?
Wonder why they have sucked for so long
at so many things.w
vDetroit Tigers were a perennial playoff team in the 2010’s with Jim Leyland as manager. Justin Verlander was one of the league’s best pitchers
They made the WS 2012 and were favored to win, but the Giants beat them in 5 games….
Pablo Sandoval hit 3 HR’s in a WS game… only Ruth, Jackson and I think Pujols have done that.
2 of the 3 HR’s came off Justin Verlander
joemad
ParticipantMike Silver’s article reads to me like the work of a guy who has a preference for Goff over McVay on a personal level.
————
Yeah, i thought so too.
w
vi think anyone that leads any type of organization could see that McVay and Les lack basic leadership skills in managing personal and this issue….
Forget the basics of negotiating a deal…..Not only did they tip their cards on Goff before the season ended, they handled the whole thing in a very stupid manner…..
bottom line net = Goff cost them 9 1st round picks, plus $22M on a contract they initiated 18 month ago….. This GM and coach is fligging mud at Goff’s rep to cover up their own inability to manage a cap.
And folks wonder why there is a coaching exodus from a team that plays in a highly desirable place to play that is on the cusp of winning a conference title with their 33 year old savior from Detroit……something is not right in that coach’s locker room and front office…..
Making these crazy high risk deals and forfeiting the future is unsustainable. It’s going to come up and bite the Rams in the ass. Goff, Gurley, Donald, Brockers, all 1st rounders that helped this team reverse 20 years of losing.
a 7 year span will pass where the Rams will lose out on the top picks from college, Youngblood, Dickerson, Harrah, Pace, Kent Hill, Todd Lyght..etc…that caliber of young talent is off the table……
We can only hope that teams with 1st rounders pick the Tavon Austins and Adam Archuletta’s of the world through 2024….
joemad
ParticipantThat’s a ridiculous trade.

Participant2020 was a lousy year for everyone and I’m grateful that most major sports brought some type of normalcy to my life. I didn’t realize how much I missed listening to a baseball game on the radio until this past summer……….. but of all the major sports, the NFL and the Rams gave me a much needed routine to my life on Sundays…… the Rams 10 win wasn’t the best icing on the cake, but at least it was some icing and not a 6-10 season that most people predicted….
After the win in TB, I thought the Rams might go all the way or at least make it to the conference championship…
Special teams, especially punt coverage and punt returns sucked.
Although the defense was great, I don’t think it was elite.
Rams offense was OK, ALL NFL QBs have off years, I’ll take 10 wins with a QB that many believe had a bad year, sometimes that happens when your left tackle misses 5-6 games…
in addition I think Goff got too much criticism….but I think that’s the nature of the current COVID and political trash climate to post bullshit on social media boards…most of these losers are just craving attention……that is not directed to anyone here…

Participant“If I’m RAM’S GM Les Snead and my 2 biggest deals are Todd Gurley, who is no longer with the team, and $100M guaranteed to Goff, I might be considered to be GM of the RAMS AT THIS MOMENT”
start at :34 second mark.
joemad
Participantyeah, McVay has been a dick recently, i kinda suspected that ever since their special teams coach left for Dallas last year…not sure if stemmed from the failed fake punt deep in their territory vs Seattle last year where McVay chewed out Fassel on the sidelines when it happened.
But Cowherd makes sense too ….big fat contract from player friendly contract to the unassuming QB.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the new GM connection in Detroit will take Goff for Stafford……..I’m not a big fan of Matthew Stafford…..that guy throws a lot of picks.
I hope they work it out and Goff stays…. I like Goff a lot.

I think KC wins big.

ParticipantMcVay is pissed and frustrated he can’t beat his former assistant buddies… …both Shanny and LaFluer have eliminated McVay in back-to-back seasons.
I hope he doesn’t lose Goff.
joemad
Participantthat’s too bad he’s gone, but that’s life in the NFL, i liked him especially in the 2nd halves of games.
Rams Defense was # 1, but every year the NFL has a team that will rank #1 at defense, but that doesn’t mean that it’s a Steel Curtain, Doomsday, or Ray Lewis defense
This defense allowed Nick Mullins to drive the field to win a game.
This defense couldn’t stop Buffalo, 4th and fucking 10!
This defense couldn’t extend the Jets losing streak.It was a #1 defense, a great defense but not elite.
If McVay and the Rams can replace a legend like Wade with something better, I think he can find someone capable to replace Staley.
joemad
ParticipantI hope McVay remembers that the road to the Super Bowl is through a wild card game in Seattle, that tore 99’s ribs, and through Green Bay when you lose to the Jets, Dolphins and to SF twice in the regular season…the 4th and 10 last second failure in Buffalo didn’t help either…
It was good to see them continue to battle today but the margin of error to win is slim when playing a playoff game in Green Bay against a team coming off a bye….
I still love this team, most people predicted a 6-10 season…they were much better than that.
Can’t wait till next year….

ParticipantIt really only matters as far as the Chat room goes, but I prefer to be in Chat and in real time.
i understand… i’ve been at both ends of the time warp spectrum in the chat room… I’ve been 15 seconds ahead of the chat and up to 2 minutes behind depending on how I access the game…..it’s miserable when you’re that far behind…. i read the loss in the Chatroom vs the Jets when Gore and NY grinded the clock 2 min before I watched it unfold on TV…i got to experience the misery twice, but I still somewhat hoped that outcome on TV would be different…..

ParticipantBill Plashcke is an idiot.

Participantif Wolford starts, i think the Rams will lose. I’m not even sure if Wolford is worthy to have a spy on him to cover for his scrambling…..i think Seattle will smother him.
If Goff is good to go with a feasible thumb, I think the Rams win big.
joemad
ParticipantRams play in Seattle?
