While Snead & McVay are celebrating, Von Miller is on a flight, ... and Whitworth, Stafford, Kupp, Donald, Floyd & Ramsey are kicked back enjoying a couple cocktails and a moment of extreme happiness.

Me, I'm ...

When I informed my wife of this move she stated, " Every team the Rams have left to play just S### their paints"!

When I told my wife the Rams acquired Von Miller to play with Aaron Donald, she said ... 'Who's Aaron Donald?'

LOL. That's what my wife would probably say. Or more like, who are the "Rams"?
my wife when hearing we got Miller for less than 100k a game " who does Snead have pictures of "

Think we resign Miller for another year and Stafford for 3 years after this season.

For sure, people thought Ramsey would walk for some reason too. Why? They dont want to live in LA and have a chance to win Super Bowls? People dont think Von wants to play next to AD?? To me it's a no-brainer he resigns for at least one more year, maybe 2.

I’d rather have the picks based on Miller’s play this year
He has 4.5 sacks and 30 pressures across 6 games. He was hurt in the first half of the Cleveland week 7 game and missed last weeks Washington game.

Project 4.5 sacks and 30 pressures in 6 games across 16 games. Then add the Donald factor.

The more the aftershocks settle from the initial breaking news, which felt like a crack in the fault of the NFLs power structure, the better this looks.
And it never looked bad.. just somewhat unexpected.

Structurally, this isn't just a home run... it's a GRAND SLAM home run.

Part of the reason Von Miller's stats changed after the first 4 games is that he was asked to go into coverage more than at any other times in his career and one of my BFFs who's as much a diehard Broncos fan than any of us are diehard Rams fan has been furious about how Fangio has been misusing Von Miller this year.

Why is this structurally a GRAND SLAM?

1) Von Miller will be part of a rotation

2) While his focus will be pass rushing, his ability to contain and cover is substantially better than Lewis who I love as an up and coming player and Hollins when he comes back.

3) As my BFF Bronco fan admits, our Sports Medicine team will be a substantial boon for Von Miller. He admitted that no team in the league gets better production from its veterans than our Rams.

4) Von Miller has been in the Fangio D for awhile, so he only has to learn the Morris hybridization of this D which shouldn't be too hard. Unlike our previous Defensive scheme changes or alterations, our D wasn't awful while it got situated in the scheme. What this means for Von Miller is being able to hit the ground running.

5) I think no team embraces new players better than we do which will help what seems like heartbreak for Von Miller. He said from an open car window as he was leaving the facility "He's a country boy. He raises chickens and legit got an Ag degree. That said, I think once he's here, he'll love it and be productive from day one.

Goff fanboys now are complaining about the Von Miller trade and Snead throwing away second-round picks.

Stop being a fucking troll.

Nearly everyone here is happy about the trade and you want to divide on the one thing we are United about.

If we are going to try to win a Super Bowl then we might as well push every last chip in.

Cool. I'm sure neither of the, I dunno, maybe 2 people out there that you're referring to would mind if you showed us what they said.
