    Do you agree with Luke Willson?

    Excellent analogy. My son does his own work on his track car, and it spends more time broken then it does running well. When track day hits on a day that he has it running optimally, he blows the doors off of most people. Problem is, everything has to be perfect for it to run optimally. Too...

    The bears game is pretty much meaningless

    A scenario that is nowhere to be found in your OP where the Rams go 0-2.

    Rams and Seahawks can be tied after week 18 after applying 6 tiebreaks

    Seahawks don’t have to win Thursday to make the playoffs. They just have to beat the Rams, and have the Rams lose to the Cards.

    The bears game is pretty much meaningless

    Sigh. Why is this so difficult to understand? If the Rams go 0-2, we make the playoffs. It doesn’t matter whether we go 1-1 or 2-0, we still make the playoffs if the Rams go 0-2.

    That final interception was on DK

    That ball was perfectly thrown. It's in the air before DK makes his break, and it lands exactly where DK should be, if he makes the correct break. His body would have and should have been between the ball and the defender, if he makes the correct break. The only reason the defender has a...

    Geno Smith

    I hope they bring Tommy Mellott in for a look. It's a bad year for QBs, and I wouldn't waste any picks before the 5th round on one. 2026 looks a bit better to me. Would be nice to be in a position to trade up an take Manning.

    Isn't being the best non-playoff team wonderful?

    I’ll say this about John. If John is responsible for the many missteps we’ve had in Free Agency, and the draft five plus years ago, then he needs to go. If those decisions were more Carroll’s doing, and the recent draft successes were due to John taking the reins from Pete, then he should...

    Isn't being the best non-playoff team wonderful?

    Holmgren was Executive Vice President of Football Operations, GM, and Coach. Carrol was Executive Vice President of Football Operations (above GM), and Coach. Schneider was/ is GM, now with Coach Macdonald under him. Carroll had final say when he was here, though it was a collaborative effort.

    The bears game is pretty much meaningless

    If the Rams lose both games, then the Chicago game doesn't matter. If they beat us, the Chicago game doesn't matter. The only scenario where the Chicago game could possibly matter is if we both win week 17, and then we beat the Rams in week 18 In that scenario, in order for the Chicago game...

    The bears game is pretty much meaningless

    If the Rams lose to the Cards and the Hawks, they will be 9-8. - If Seahawks beat both Bears and Rams, they would win the division at 10-7 - If Seahawks lost to the Bears, but beat the Rams, they would win the division, based on win percentage in division games. In the scenario that Rams beat...

    Who do we bench/start?

    It was the Bills needing to lose to both the Jets and the Patriots plus the Bears needing to beat the Packers that made me overlook this possibility. I could see the Dolphins beating Browns and Jets, and Broncos beating Bengals. Unlikely Broncos beat KC.

    The bears game is pretty much meaningless

    It would be a good chance to try out some things, be it personnel, schemes, maybe see what running the football looks like...

    Drafting a QB in Rd1

    Problem is, we will be drafting right around where we were last year. Potentially even in a worse position. The last QB taken before our first pick was Bo Nix at 12. We would have had to give up a lot to move up 4 spots to take him. Even more for Penix at 8. Unlikely we could have...

    Geno Smith

    The question becomes, what to do with the 25 million they would "save" by cutting Geno? You have to do something with it to make the team better than it would be with Geno, either now, or in 2026 or 2027. Justin Fields (who would be my FA target) isn't taking 25 million APY, but you could...

    Who do we bench/start?

    Rams beat the Bills and Vikings while the Hawks biggest wins were against the Dolphins and the Broncos. How do you see SOV favoring the Hawks?

    Who do we bench/start?

    Nope. flv2 is correct. We do not have to win out. The Rams have to lose out, and we would own the tie breaker of best win percentage in division games. If Rams beat Cards and we beat Rams, Rams have the tie breaker based on strength of victory. The Chicago game has no effect on whether we...

    Geno Smith

    Personally, I think Geno will never return to the form he seemed to magically have when his career was first resurrected. And I believe the reason for this is that he needs his quarterback whisperer to center him, and get him out of his head in the big moments. (This is not suggesting we...

    Geno Smith

    Ignored? We’ve drafted 23 offensive linemen since 2010, and signed at least 6 free agent offensive linemen since 2017. Yes, we need to be better at selecting good ones, but it’s a league wide issue. Very few teams have a hit rate above 20% on offensive linemen.

    ET3 Wife Charged for Stealing His Money

    He is still a HOF lock. He and Wagner are the only locks from that team, but Russ is getting close.

    Isn't being the best non-playoff team wonderful?

    This is what I would do. A young, vibrant team, making a deep push, and packing the stands, in 2026 or 2027, would be much more valuable.
