K-9

Pro scouts and GMs had Allen pegged as a first round pick; pretty much after his sophomore year at Wyoming. The arm talent and athleticism were readily apparent to everyone. You are spot on about the know it alls here and in the twitterverse , though. They just couldn’t see past his completion percentage and the occasional wild throws.

Starter or not, I like the idea of 12 personnel with Motor, Kroft, and Knox on the field with Diggs and Brown. Hope we see more of it.

Twitter analysts. Enough said.

The rumor is that it was the Cardinals who leaked those tweets.

I heard John Facenda’s baritone the entire time I read that.

If Allen is an “anomaly” for breaking out in his 3rd year, then what is Aaron Rodgers, who broke out in his 4th? PFF and others don’t seem to grasp that players simply can’t be shoehorned into their stat models.

Like they did when they gifted the Rams with a non-call at the end of their playoff game with the Saints two years ago. No biggie. It only cost the Saints a chance to go to the SB. Screw the Rams. Maybe they should have stopped us from converting on a ridiculous 3rd and 22 that kept the drive alive. Maybe they never should have put themselves in a position to lose that game in the first place.

Fit it up, Leslie!

I just hope teams keep on “making him play quarterback.”

I’m reading it while curled up with a cup of Irish mocha mint.

Yep, like the play in question. Maybe going to full time refs would help. It’s tough going from being a claims adjuster during the week to a ref on the weekends.

Right behind Darnold.

Crap call. NFL refs continue to lose credibility with every game. Absolutely the worst of all pro sport officials.

Not zero; but it’s a number less than five.

You can count on less than one hand the number of QBs in this league capable of making that throw.

All due respect to Robert Woods, but the Rams are the LAST team to be complaining about a PI call at the end of the game given what occurred in New Orleans in the 2018 playoffs that denied the Saints a chance to go to the SB.

Who is evaluating the high ranking executives that are evaluating Gase? And who is evaluating those evaluators?

Yep, and the buses are just about full.

Per the bold text, can you cite all those “bad, head scratching, and crippling plays” that almost cost us the game? I saw a bunch in defense, though.

Why was it undeserved? Good thing we played two halves then, because the 21 points we scored in that half sure came in handy. I’m pretty sure we deserved those 21 points, too.

Not small, but he’s frail. I mean the refs can actually see his camel toe thru his uniform pants.

Hyde and Addison both came back.

Like I said previously, even though it couldn’t have been a horse collar because of the rule about being in the pocket, I wonder if unnecessary roughness would have been called if Allen was a smaller, frailer QB.

It’s exciting for sure. But there will be some clunkers. And our D will HAVE to win those games for us.
