  1. No team has ever done the Rams model consistently. Ever. This is unchartered territory. As for the “model of drafting well” … There is no model of drafting well. You can create a model of drafting, but you can’t a guarantee that you will do it well. You can’t guarantee that the picks will be good. Even good GM’s can’t expect much more than 50% of their picks to be successful. Lets look at Beane’s draft picks: - Oliver (TOP 10) is somewhere between mediocre and above average. Jeffrey Simmons, who is an absolute monster, was taken around 10 picks after him. - Epenesa (2nd round) is practically invisible and is a routine inactive - Ford (2nd round) is horrible - Moss (3rd round) has 5 games this year where he averages 3.4 yards per carry or less - Singletary (3rd round) has the field vision of a 90 year old - Gabe (4th round) is invisible AND dropped a potential game-tying catch last week. - Fromm (5th round) isn’t on the active roster - Joseph (5th round) isn’t on the active roster I could go on, but what’s the point? Even Beane’s GOOD picks are not great. They’re not dominant. They’re not “special”. I would trade ANY of those players for a few quality linemen. .
  2. that sounds more about the line than it does about that duo.
  3. Since when is 3 game changers needed on offense to win? That is an extremely rare luxury.
  4. Yeah I don’t understand the premise of this thread at all. What did he want them to do? Kick the field goal on third down? This is revisionist history through and through. No NFL coach is not pushing for a TD on that drive.
  5. My vote would be for Beane. I think he values his draft picks far too much. It was clear that our run game and offensive line was not up to standards prior to the trade deadline and he was not aggressive enough in finding talent to fix that. I favor the Rams model of trading draft picks for proven players, rather than taking 50/50 (or worse odds) in the draft. I would much rather have a solid offensive linemen or two than a 1st or 2nd round pick in 6 months after another no-SB season.
  6. When did McD not swallow his pride and take the three?
  7. What the Rams are doing right now to slow down the Titans pass rush is genius and I hope the Bills coaching staff is watching.
  8. We shouldn’t need this type of post against a 1-6 team.
  9. Ideally you don’t want your quarter of a billion dollar QB running there when a receiver is open.
  10. The frustrating part of today (for me) is that for the first time in quite a while I realized that coaching is a problem, and that is never a place where you want to be.
  11. The world isn’t a time loop. We are not re-enacting the past.
  12. SingleMoss have less than ideal field vision, but who is going to be successful with the line we have right now?
  13. Three bad weeks. Pitt, Mia #2 and Jax.
  14. I find these non-automated but they say they’re automated responses so interesting. What is the story with these?
  15. That’s because he was hurt. When looking on a per-game basis, he was 3rd in targets - behind only Kelce and Hill. Chiefs we’re 9-0 when Sammy was targeted 3 or more times in a game. They were 5-2 when he wasn’t. .
  16. That tweet makes it sound like a protocol issue more than a positive test, no?
  17. I can’t figure out if you’re describing Rich Stadium or Lambeau Field. People have signs that say “park and pee”? And the closer you get to the stadium, the prices go up? You dont say!? Certainly don’t see that on Big Tree & Abbott every Sunday. (I’m just kidding, that’s ALL you see). Maybe you haven’t been to the stadium since it was built in a cornfield in the 70’s. “You sound like a one trick pony who hasn’t seen enough to evaluate various options.” I can just about guarantee that i’ve been to more stadiums than you have. I went on a road trip where I went to nearly every stadium in the NFL recently.
  18. You just described Rich Stadium lol. PS, if I had a dollar for every time you posted “I used to live in X” …
  19. My suggestion - Dont take these grades seriously. They're done by a guy that was a radio producer 5 years ago. I don’t blame him for trying but I have no faith that he actually knows what he is seeing.
  20. I think Allen is vaccinated. I don’t see him in a mask in any photos of him in the facility, which is a requirement of the unvaccinated.
  21. Didnt miss a field goal in 9 of his last 10 games.
  22. Highlighted portion of the post you quoted.
