He's such a competitor that he couldn't go out with a loss.
No way he's fully recovered physically from last season but probably made his mind up the day after the NFC Championship loss that he was coming back.
First ballot Hall of Fame material right there.
 
Great news at the awards show - didn't expect anything from him there about next years plans. Doubly great because now we don't have to fret about him coming back for a month or two! McVay looked surprised too - I wonder if he knew or found out at the same time as everyone else?
They were just in Cabo together and Stafford said he had already been thinking and talking to his family about continuing to play even before the season ended. I'm fairly certain his future was something they had (did) discuss prior to tonight and McVay had a good idea of where his head was at - they have a great relationship and mutual respect for each other. Can't imagine Stafford wouldn't have let McVay and Snead know before announcing it tonight.

Or, Matthew wanted to also surprise his buddy with the news.

Excellent. He gives the Rams the best chance to win the SB next year and coming back gives the team more time to arrange a successor.

Like, oh, I don't know. Joe Burrow.
 
Count me in for F them picks 2.0
Ships some premium future picks for a pro bowl CB. Like Two future first (Ramsey deal).
Beef up that defense with some star players. Move up for Caleb Downs type moves.
I don't see us in a desperate situation where we have to mortgage the future that much.
The Rams have the maneuverability within their current cap space to acquire major upgrades at the positions of their choosing, whether that's at CB, WO, LB, edge or at OT.
I think it would be smarter to get some positions upgraded such as OT , LB and maybe even a WO or CB through FA.
We have the cheese and the team moxie to do it. Great players actually want to play here.
Our first 3 picks can then be used to fill in the remaining skill position holes and also get younger, at a lesser cap hit, then take the BPA to finish up the draft.
