Matt Stafford Traded to Rams

[NJRamsFan]

I take a different approach, I wish them all the best just not against the Rams, but as careful as I am to agree with anyone from the Garden State, well, fucken aye!

I think it’s just my way of emotionally separating from the player. I loved todd gurley and part of me was terrified he’d put up 20 tds this year and we’d have lost him.

I had to root against him just like I do Goff because I’d rather our FO be right and me be wrong because their decisions are the ones that get played out on the field mine mean little to nothing.

I love the trade. Two first rounders are late. Ok. I can deal with that. The guys find value deeper in the draft anyway. I would have liked to have got some late round picks back for it but I do get that the contract being traded off the books is a big deal.
Quarterback for Quarterback I love what we got here. Stafford is gonna be an absolute weapon. I know he's had injury concerns the past few years but theres no reason he can't play 10 more years like Rodgers, Brady, Brees.

I just hope that he can last behind our O line and with no one to throw deep to in 2.5 seconds or less!

 

[NJRamsFan]

Fine! I'm taking my ball and I'm going home!

Everyone knows you stole that ball...

 

[I like Rams]

Welcome to the Most DIS-LOYAL/DIS-HONEST franchise in the NFL- Your Los Angeles Fucking Rams!!!
1) Todd Gurley We Love you-JK Bye
2) Brandin Cooks We Love you-JK Bye
3) Jared Goff We Love you-JK Bye
I wonder how current players like Kupp, Woods, Higbee etc. feel about the bs McVay has been feeding them about there is no I in team etc. etc. How can you continue to trust your coach and GM after all this.
No first round picks for 8 seasons. Over the Cap! How Les Fucking Snead has a job still is unbelievable! He must have something spicy over Kroenke not to have been fired today much less 5 years ago. If McVay didnt luck into Wade Phillips and Brandon Staley and coach Fossil the Rams would have been barely an 8-8 team in his tenure. His offense has been figured out pretty much since the end of 2018. And its been scapegoat time the past 2 seasons. If we fail to meet expectations in 2021 I wonder who will be the scapegoat then? Donald? Ramsey? Stafford? Lol. What a fuckin joke this has become. Niners fans are laughing at how dysfunctional our franchise has become again. Im beyond pissed. I see Snead taking trade advise from casual fans over on the Rams-Reddit group

How did McVay "luck into" Phillip's and Staley? Hes the one who brought them on board.

I’m so excited to see what Stafford and McVay can do together. What are the rules at this point? Is Stafford allowed to get a playbook? Are he and McVay allowed to start working together yet? I know the off-season has built in limitations and this trade isn’t even official until March.

It's about the winning and nothing else - loyalty

Oh I won't be a fan for a different team I just won't watch football period if I can't get over this.

It's going to be a long long time before I can even think to get over this.

Not watch football? Yeah like I said that would never happen to me.

Are you going to read books or something?

 

[SoCalRam78]

Just watched stafford highlights from last year. More mobile in pocket. Laser arm. Shorter windup. Makes throws Goff just couldn’t or wouldn’t. This on a terrible team.

stafford actually has the traits of a number 1 pick.

I believe Bill Belichick has already sent Stafford a copy of our playbook and all the video tapes of our practices no worries.

 

[Ellard80]

Ill tell you one person the trade is good for - without a doubt.

Stat Padford - he went from a loser to an ultra competitive HC and team that has been in the playoffs 3 of 4.

 

[den-the-coach]

It's going to be a long long time before I can even think to get over this.

Yeah, I remember as young lad that felt that way in 1973, the Los Angeles Rams had traded the God Roman Gabriel to Philadelphia and had acquired the portly, balding John Hadl from San Diego, as a seven year old, I was crushed and I actually had a castoff jersey (all you can get back then) with number 18 on it.

I was convinced there was no way I could root for the Rams with a bald Quarterback and didn't even know who the new Head Coach was and then they won their first six games plus won the NFC West with a 12-2 record and I was just fine.

 

[Barrison]

Welp after sleeping on it, I'm over the initial shock and ready to ride on the Stafford train. Let's go get that Lombardi!

 

[NJRamsFan]

Stat Padford

Come on now don’t do that. You and I didn’t like people calling Goff Goof. Matthew Stafford is our QB now.

 

[Ramit]

See my responses to NJRam

The no look part I agree with but throwing between defenders was something Goff did on a regular basis when he had time.

Ok. You are correct; however, the point of that video is not the throwing in between 3 defenders. It is having the skill necessary to not only look them off, but also complete a precision no look pass that is roughly 15-20 yards deep on a rope. Look at the defender furthest right in the video. That guy was actually moving toward the ball and didn't even attempt to make a play on it because he didn't expect it.

If they really feel like Goff isn't the way forward, is it more disloyal to keep him or get rid of him? If they think making the playoffs is going to be a struggle with Goff, is it more disloyal to let him hold back Donald and Ramsey or let him go and try to get better?

I don't know if you've ever had to make those decisions at work, but in my experience people usually get it and they can mostly see it for themselves.

I don't really agree with the trade, but I'm not in sync with the cap, the players, the plan, etc. I'm ready for us to suck, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if we do well.

EDIT: More tpyos

Dont shed a tear for Goff. He handles losing very well. Doesnt get emotional after a win, doesnt get enotional after a loss.

He fit right in Detroit.

 

[Seth Griffith]

Just saw that post trade the Rams SB odds went from 18/1 to 13/1

 

[RaminExile]

I just hope that he can last behind our O line and with no one to throw deep to in 2.5 seconds or less!

The only real problem is at center. We got ABUSED there.

 

[Ellard80]

Well for 1 - Stat Padford is about 1000 times more clever than "goof" they aint even in the same universe.

#2 = its a joke - ill be cheering on our new QB just like any other.
