    The Rams are presently at $3,669,000 for their QBs (Foles, Keenum & Davis), which is fourth lowest in the league. At $43,620,156 for the total offense, no team in the league is currently spending less for their offense. By contrast, we are paying almost as much as for the entire offense as we are for just the defensive line ($43,479,272).

    I am not a big fan of bargain shopping on QBs. It would seem to be an important position to invest in so I would support another QB in the mix, just in case Foles winds up being a one year investment.

    According to http://overthecap.com/calculator/st-louis-rams , if you cut Long and Wells and trade Bradford, we wind up with $25,984,097 in 2015, $70,115,005 in 2016 and $108,294,157 in 2017 for available cap.

    So after spending about $1,542,000 on Foles and setting aside a few million on the draft, who we buying with the remaining $21 million plus on? Better not be saved for stadium cushions in LA. I am hoping they get busy (and productive) in either new signings or get busy with contract restructuring/extensions (FA16: Brockers, Sims, Barron, Zuerlein — FA17: Chris Long).

    Thanks guys.

    Had a great day and look forward to the new year. From a Rams perspective there is no where to go but up right? right?

    All I want for my birthday is a Rams post season appearance in 2015/16. It has been far too long at 10 years running now — the fourth longest active drought behind the Browns (12), Raiders (12) and the Bills (15).

    Technically, couldn’t the Rams still finish ahead of the 49ers and thus alter their 2 games determined by place? (Washington, Tampa Bay would flip to Giants & Falcons likely)

    I had setup the entry forms do the next several weeks are available in advance at the Rams Huddle Pickem page.

    I do not have a utility to add other peoples scores, but may be able to hack it JoeMad since you did send them in advance.

    I agree on the backwards thing Dak… darn plugin was built for Soccer (e.g. the other football) and those darn Europeans do everything backwards. 😉

    In looking at the last 30 Years of Rams…

    • Better than Spagnuolo, Linehan & Knox Round 2.
    • On par to slightly better than Brooks.
    • Not at all as good as Martz, Robinson or Vermeil.

    The division has returned to the difficulty level of the past (Linehan and Spags blew the opportunity to capitalize on a weak division), but the biggest concern to me is there has been no growth in output. You could point to improvements in play last year over his first season, but the outcome was exactly the same. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we were 6-7 wins this year and I am not sure if I will ever see Fischer coach a 10+ win Rams squad.

    So all that said 6.28318530718, or 2x pi.

    Final results for Week 2 are in and PA Ram fended off an early run by Zooey to hold on to his two point lead for the season.

    Full Results can be seen here on the HUDDLE PICK’EM page.

    The Week 3 Entry form is available. First game is Thursday Night.

    I just want to comment that Zooey seems to have made a late run but certainly the best man won.

    I think we can all agree with that.

    I just wanted to comment, you were the only “Rams fan” to pick the Vikings. Just sayin’.

    Oh I agree there are reasons, just not reasons I am looking forward to seeing week in and week out.

    After today’s performance, I am fairly convinced we will be experiencing the 12th consecutive season where the team does not post a winning record. That will be three seasons longer than the previous streak at 9 seasons and has to be right up their among all time streaks

    It defies statistical randomness and is only more frustrating when the baseball team you support (Mets) just wrapped up their sixth straight losing season, one season short of their record streak of seven seasons.

    RamsMaineiac needs some wins. 🙂

    In a related story, ESPN is reporting that Rams players are are growing angry with Greg Robinson, as his deuces have resulted in clogged crappers three times this preseason. More on this story in the 10 o’clock report.

    I said the same last night, in full sarcasm mode, when I thought it was a much less serious injury. I am disgusted and disappointed by the fact that sarcasm has become reality.

    In such a competitive division, this is a season ender for the team IMO. As it was, Bradford would have had to have had a superior season to give them a chance. I see no way that Hill magically become a great QB after enough seasons to show he is average at best.

    Another wasted season and the accompanying purchase from DirectTV to make it a financial waste too.

    What caught my eye on this article was that he rated the NFC West teams 1, 3, 10 & 11. If his perception is anywhere near reality, that is a hella division to play in.
