why is there not a whisper...

[sloramfan]

about the stafford trade on the la rams site???

is it out of respect for goff?...

was hoping for some kind of press conference or something...

they cannot possibly be that slow at coming up with something for us fans to soak in...

waiting all day, and still pissed in slo...

go rams

Yes this is an outrage. Somebody get to the bottom of it now.

 

[Merlin]

And I agree it seems weird. Figured there'd be more hoopla.

 

[AvengerRam]

Better?

 

[Loyal]

I heard that they agreed to make it official on the 18th? Maybe the rams wanted to make sure they cleared enough cap space?

 

[ProGen]

Because he has clearly been brought in to back-up Wolford...and they didn't wanna make a big deal about him joining the team.

I believe for the most part it has to do with the tampering rules. They have to wait until after it is tampering to talk about it officially. That should be very soon.

My sources tell me The Stafford deal fell through due to failed physical.

Unfortunately the Kool aide party is over.

 

[PARAM]

Yeah, I know, when is the presser????
I want to hear the thinly veiled promises, confident projections and bursting pride.
The "we finally got our guy, so you know what comes next!!!" delivered, of course, with a helping of McVay humility.

There's only a farewell article to Stafford on the Lions site. Nothing about Goff. I'm sure they'll kick off a coordinated announcement.

 

[Allen2McVay]

This is a tough crowd.

Ya mean the Howling Wolf > Matt the Gunslinger? Will we have a showdown at the OK Corral to determine the Starting QB?

Imagine being Wolfy right now... Knowing that you screwed your big shot to start a playoff game by running like a dumbass into the teeth of the defense and getting knocked out. I mean taking more idiot head shots after taking like 5 huge ones vs Arizona the week prior was a special kind of fucking stupid. And now not only does he see them bring in a new starter but he takes his number too.

I just find the whole thing kind of funny. Ironic too given how smart the guy reportedly is. So smart but stupid enough to fuck himself out of an opportunity that rarely comes for someone of his talent level.

That is a little harsh, Merlin. I know when I played sports, it was always 100% every play. It is just the way I am wired. If I get hurt, I get hurt. I am thinking about that game and that play. I don't think I could have played any other way. I could get hit by a bus tomorrow, so I am going 100% today. I hope that doesn't make me a dumbass. LOL.

Not to mention the fact that it was an illegal hit.

You're right it was harsh. But watch that Arizona game dude. He took shot after shot after shot directly to his head. Kept getting up too. But during that game and afterward what we discussed here was how he needed to be mindful of that.

Cut to the biggest game of his life and what does he do? Yeah. So I know it's harsh but it's true. IMO. Sometimes truth is harsh.

No, I get what you are saying, I just know, that I wouldn't be able to turn it off. Plus, who is to say that if he isn't playing 100% balls to the wall we will even win that game and make it to the playoffs? He certainly couldn't have known it at the time.
