Exactly why I hate the talk of starting out slow and Stafford would get rolling after a couple of games.

It takes one week like this, and it makes the loses even worse. Even "easing" Donald back in was questionable to me, he should've been out there from the beginning or not come back at all.
 
Exactly yet all I got was well we don't use a 3rd WR much.....we will need to now..... fucking son of a bitch! Fuckin year keeps getting more brutal. Did they put a substation near our stadium?

You seem to be under the impression that there is no salary cap, and that the Rams should have stars that are 3rd stringers and are willing to sit on the bench until an injury occurs.

Never try to build a super team. It just brings bad luck. Happened with the Eagles when they tried it and now it’s happening with us.

Trade Parkinson and BY and anyone else who you can get value for. Get some decent picks.

Then, depending if Stafford retires or not, move Garrett in the offseason assuming you get great value. Blow it up and add some youth. Build around Simpson if Stafford hangs it up.
 
it sure is looking bleak. I hope the team can man up and show some mental toughness. It is now or never. If this was a game, this is where Stafford finally says fuck it and starts slinging it. Maybe he can get the mentality going 100% of the time. It really doesn't have to be over. The team just needs to stick together and fight. Lets Go Rams show the grit. The season is not lost yet.

I can still see McVay making him a healthy scratch.
McVay can never bring himself to make Tutu a real part of the plan. Just like he couldn't make 13P a real part of the plan. Only when he is forced to by injury does he make real changes that always seem to be wanted around here and then the injury happens and he makes the move and the team is better off. Maybe it happens again. I wonder what 13P looks like when Tutu is the Receiver?

Yeah he’ll roll with the lunch pail JAG’s who know the playbook, love football and can block. This team is full of those guys.

This was an excellent draft strategy in ‘23 and ‘24 to rebuild on the fly. They should have pivoted off of that the last 2 years and brought in skill guys with a lot of upside and playmaking ability.


Two elite playmakers on offense. Old Stafford and Nacua.

Unlike baseball and basketball you cannot buy a championship in the NFL. It has been proven time and time again and it's been proven again this year. Why teams try to do it in the NFL baffles me.

That sounds like a solid formula for another 13 year stretch of missing the playoffs.

TuTu at least has speed and can stretch a D. And he's a better WR IMO than Whittington or Mumpfield.

I have no idea why McVay wants him on the roster if he's never going to use him. Makes no sense whatsoever.
 
Just got the bad news.

McVay will be forced to change things up,

He has to allow Tutu to step up. Parkinson and Higbee are healthy, at least for now. Whitt and Mumpfield have to step up to.

He can still go P13 with Allen and Puka with the other TEs. Change it up with Tutu, Whitt or Mumpfield replacing a TE.

it would be hard to bring someone in because of the complicated offense and calls.

This could get McVay out of his comfort zone to create new plays and change up the play calling. Time for everyone to step up.

You seem to not be able to be read and the gif doesn't help you lol. Not once did I say have a star waiting in the wings. I was simply talking about investing some higher draft capital in delevoping a WR with some good athletic traits vs not even trying hard to. 3rd WRs don't have to be stars ya know....Not even sure how this approach isn't affordable but yeah keep posting shit that makes no sense, its your right after all I guess lol. Maybe instead of drafting Klare for example, they could have invested in a WR with some athleticism and possible upside. We have an older WR in Adams , that actually hurt his hamstring last year too and Puka who plays with an physicality that can lead to an injury. Instead they drafted CJ Daniels (very late in the draft) who hasn't even been active. Pretty dumb to not invest better in that position as Mumpfield and Whittington aren't anything special as well.

Just based on what I have witnessed this offense is not ready to play football after the opening kickoff, is that on the players or the coaches?

I hope you're right that someone will step up but McVay has had so many years to get Tutu involved so I don't see it. Whittington isn't really any good and Mumpfield hasn't impressed as well. There's a reason these last 2 were drafted so late, they really don't have any elite traits. Teams are going to be doubling Puka all they can. We need Ferguson back and should look to add a vet that is solid and doesn't cost much. Unfortunately like kicker, I'm sure the pickings are slim.
