December 28, 2021 at 3:05 pm in reply to: Stafford not playing at Super Bowl level (Article 12/27/21) #135022
wvParticipantLook at the Yards per pass attempt, fwiw.
QB stats:https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/player
—I’m wondering how that 8.1 yards per attempt compares to
Goff, Bradford, Warner, Bulger…Just curious.
On the INTs, some of Stafford’s interceptions are among the
WORST i have ever seen from a ram QB. I mean some of them are just WTF-INTs.But for the most part, Stafford’s stats are top-5.
So any fair analysis of him, has to account for the top-5 overall stat part,
as well as the occasional WTF INT part.w
vwvParticipantSteve Young is funny in this vid. Stick with it, he tells himself to shut-up.
==========wvParticipantI want no part of playing the 9ers in consecutive weeks.
========
My preferred super bowl run would be thru:
49ers
Cowboys
PackersPatriots.

wvParticipantI still remember that game where Lamar Jackson made the rams look
like one-legged keystone cops. It was a massacre.I havent followed the ravens much, but i guess Lamar is still fighting
an ankle injury. So, even if he plays, I suppose he wont be the
player he was on the night of the massacre.Ravens are always tough, hard-nosed team though. I’m glad the Rams finish
up against two tough teams. I wanna see how they play against the Ravens
and 49ers.wvParticipant…so i was watching that vikes vid above, and the two talkers
were ripping kirk cousins to pieces for a couple of minutes, blah blah blah cousins
etc — and then, they mention as an aside:‘maybe that cracked rib affected him’
Ya think?
w
vwvParticipantVikings are 2-4 when they are Plus-2 or better, in the turnover ratio.
Thus, McVay and Stafford had the perfect game plan.
===========
wvParticipantwvParticipantOnly saw the highlights so far.
Stafford is a bit of an enigma, aint he. The reason I suspect
‘part’ of the problem is nagging-injuries is because of that deep throw
to Van Jefferson that was underthrown and intercepted. Why the underthrow?
Stafford has a cannon. He made that exact throw not too long ago for a TD.
I’m not saying all his issues are reducible to injuries, but i suspect
thats part of it. Ah well. He’s had four clunkers I’d say, and eleven good games.Gotta hope he aint bad-stafford in the playoffs.
Defense, Sony, kicking-game — team is looking like a solid playoff team
now.We are blessed.
w
vwvParticipantAnd a Happy 2022 to everyone
w
vwvParticipantDunno if this has been posted. But Marshall was pretty funny in this:
wvParticipantBREAKING: Fournette is out for the year. TB just took a hit.
=========
Fournette and Godwin out for year?
Thats huge. Both are such physical, heart-and-soul players on that team.
I’d be very surprised if the Bucs can overcome that.
w
vwvParticipantPFF Fantasy Football@PFF_Fantasy
Cooper Kupp is on pace for 1,973 receiving yards this season
That would break Calvin Johnson’s single-season NFL record of 1,964 yards Flushed face
===============This kind of statement infuriates me.
They play 17 games this year. Calvin set that record in a 16 game season.
That fact should be stated every time someone starts yapping about
a ‘record being broken’ this year.w
vwvParticipantDline is gelling.
==========
Edit. I thought you wrote “Oline” so i responded as if you said Oline.
Which you didnt say 🙂I hope so.
But i also think its equally likely they just havnt played
a DLine in the last 3 weeks, as good as
the Titans, Packers or 49ers.I dunno.

wvParticipantI’m imagining a super bowl where Mahommes is up against Brady,
and both are on the covid list a day before the game…w
vwvParticipant“…and also still expect to get second-year back CAM AKERS active in time for a playoff run, if not sooner. McVay told The Athletic in October that Akers (who tore his Achilles when working out off-site before training camp) was on track to make a postseason return. He may actually be able to at least return to practice in some capacity in the weeks prior to any postseason run…” J.Rodrigue
===============Damn. Thats inter esting.
w
vwvParticipantMatthew Stafford seems like the LE model of Jared Goff. He’s better, but they sure look alike in their inconsistency. They both make these amazing throws sprinkled with WTF throws. That first INT Stafford threw was terrible..
===========
Several different views of M.Stafford on this lil board.
Joemad thinks he’s worse-than-goff,
you think he’s Goff-LE, and
wv thinks he’s a top-5-QB.I dunno. I cant explain that 3 game stretch where he was bad, except,
maybe he was fighting off some nagging injuries. But i dunno.
He sucked for three games, though. But the other 11 games? The stats
are top-5. And lately, without Robert Woods, which is a huge loss.I think we ALL agree the key to the season now, is the running game.
Give Stafford a running game, and the rams are very dangerous.
The whole personality of this team changes. I mean for three solid weeks
they looked like wimps. A finesse team. Easily bullied by the Titans, 49ers, etc.McVay had to have seen that, and figured out they need to pound Sony Michel
and regain some semblance of power-strength-attitude.Now they look like a playoff team. They look tougher. More like New England.
The Hollywood team looks more like a serious football team.It aint about Stafford. Its about run-blocking and a guy named Sony.
Not quite the media version of the ‘star-studded’ rams.
w
vwvParticipantCards based on division record (4-2) vs Rams (3-2).
========
So if the rams beat the 49ers and end up 4-2 in the division,
the next tiebreaker is ‘common games’.w
vwvParticipant=============
How does the NFL break a tie within a division?Head-to-head record.
Best win percentage in games played within the division.
Best win percentage in common games.
Best win percentage in games played within the conference.
Strength of victory.
Strength of schedule.
==================wvParticipantOnly saw the hilights, but it looked like Stafford has learned
to just take the sack and not go all gunslinger under pressure.If there’s any optimism in wv-brain its because of Sony Michel
and the run-blocking. Imagine playing in Green Bay in January
without a hard-nosed running game.I thought the Rams would lose this game, so, Im quite pleased.
Who is in first place now, Cards or Rams?
w
vwvParticipantMan, in the biggest game of the year for the Browns,
they had to play without Baker Mayfield and Case Keenum.Lost by two points, i see.
This season may need an asterisk. Or one of them spiky-covid-spheres.
w
vwvParticipantThese cards leave me speechless. I love em. But…omg. Scroll down to the ‘dead birds for luck’ cards.
=========I fucking live for unhinged Victorian Christmas cards. Some years I just share the terror with friends, and others I choose to spread the chaos. This year I pick the latter.
Let’s start with the truly inexplicable.

wvParticipantThe Lions could easily be in the five or six win range.
It will be interesting to see what they do about
their QB situation. What do they think of Goff?w
vwvParticipant=========
Rams24/7@Rams24_7
With 1.5 sacks on Tuesday AD will pass Warren Sapp in career sacks. AD will amass in 8 seasons what Sapp did in 13 & he was a first ballot HOFer
==========A lot is written about AD, but a lot of it compares apples and oranges,
or DTs to DEs or LBs, etc.This message above, says it all, though. Sapp is often considered
the best DT of his generation. A human wrecking ball.
AD should not be compared to edge rushers.w
vwvParticipantBucs and Cards fans have to be in shock this week.
Packers and Chiefs are the onliest teams
that look reliable at this point.w
vwvParticipantI like The Matrix, a lot.
Matrix II was so bad that I believe that The Matrix was kind of an accident. Matrix III got such bad reviews that I didn’t even watch it.
Then I watched their TV show, Sensate8, or whatever it was. Started off really interesting, and lost its way.
Seems like these sibling directors have really great concepts that exceed their storytelling reach. I dunno.
And am I wrong that Keanu Reaves was a JOKE a few years ago? Like…terrible, terrible actor stuff, and now seems like he’s a saint.
Media garbage, man. Don’t know.
=============
Yeah, I think the John Wick movies saved Keanu. For whatever reason,
they were super-resonant to a lot of movie-goers. And it was not
his acting that made them popular 🙂Ive never known what to think of this, btw:
trans-matrix:https://www.gscene.com/arts/lilly-wachowski-confirms-the-matrix-is-a-trans-allegory/“…Director of popular 1999 film The Matrix and its sequels – alongside sister Lana – Lilly Wachowski has recently confirmed that the films were always meant to be an allegory for the trans experience. She told Netflix that when the film was produced, the ‘corporate world wasn’t ready’ for more explicit queer movie narratives but continued ‘I love how meaningful these films are to trans people. I’m glad that it has gotten out that that was the original intention.’
wvParticipantDecember 16, 2021 at 12:55 pm in reply to: setting up the Seattle game (us, the press, twitter) #134697wvParticipantI cant picture the rams beating the seahawks without
Jalen Ramsey covering that big WR of theirs.Some of the talking heads i actually respect
focused on Sony Michel this week. I agree. Think they need
to toughen the F up, and pound the ball more.w
