Matt Stafford Traded to Rams

[Bearrister]

Yeah this was all so quick. The Goff-McVay relationship soured so suddenly. Full speculation mode - I suspect something must’ve happened between the Seahawk and Packer playoff games. I’m sure there had already been some sort of build-up, but something must’ve happened that week that pushed things over the edge. Thus the sudden and swift move to dump Goff - both in terms of throwing him under the bus and trading him so quickly.

Silver on NFL network is so sad it's painful and basically destroying the rams in a professional manner.

Fuck you, Snead. Fuck you, McVay.

The fact that we couldn't get at least a second coming back. Damn man.

We need a QB Vent Thread

Fuck the blue font.

Let's do this.

Day 15 of this migraine and now this????

He's always been close to Goff it seems, you can tell.

I will say I am intrigued to see what Stafford can do outside of Detroit. But man. We got bent over.

He can get his shoulder separated in another city.

 

[Ram_Rally]

Yes - Stafford >> Goff at the moment. But with that age, injury history and the picks... i don't know. Straight up plus two seconds would be ok to me. but we got robed.

If we win one Superbowl it'll be worth it

 

[JRobinson]

Two firsts and a third for Stafford ....wow

So long to your guy.

 

[Memento]

Again (in all caps, so that you can see just how utterly pissed I am): FUCK YOU SNEAD, FUCK YOU, MCVAY, FUCK YOU DEMOFF, FUCK EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS GIANT ELEPHANTSHIT TRADE!!!

 

[Angry Ram]

Fuck them picks...

I'm telling you guys Goff wasn't putting in the work. You can see it in his game. I'm not saying he's distracted but he's clearly not the same guy he was in mcvays first and second year.
Right when teams figured out mcvay was telling Goff what defense he was looking at before the 15 second mark. Teams changed and made Goff make that call. Obviously he wasn't cutting his play showed me all I needed to see the last two years. You guys might hate the trade but the Rams obviously felt that goff wasn't gonna cut it. And for once I agree w them

It had nothing to do with replacing Saffold and Sully with two rookies and a castaway at RG, right? Not to mention Gurley and Cooks being shadows of themselves?

I hope I'm wrong. But I don't think this move will do much, other than get Goff off our books for 2022. Stafford will be a FA, too. And we won't have a first until 2024. Good lord.

 

[Mackeyser]

Yes, but this was too expensive. The other upside is that we cleared a little salary cap space and we can ditch Stafford painlessly in 2023 if he doesn't work out. Not thrilled about this trade, but it does put us in a more competitive position next season.

HOW???

The only way to fit Stafford under the cap is to really do damage to the fucking roster now.

 

[NJRamsFan]

So long to your guy.

This was your first reaction? we made a huge trade and your first input is to reiterate that to me personally? Are you okay?

[Faceplant]

I am having a hard time breathing.

I have always liked Stafford. But oh my lord.

Why do I feel sick.

Not a good day to stop sniffing glue.

Yeah. This feels weird bro. I can't even make sense of the compensation, much less handing over Goff with it....

 

[Memento]

They gave up two fucking first round picks for a shitty older quarterback. Bullshit, I say, BULLSHIT! I'm done. I'll give my attention this offseason to the St. Louis Cardinals, who actually KNOW what the fuck they're doing!

 

[Gandalf]

WE just got bent over and stuck to hard, So much for any respect I had for McSnead. It saves future cap money, but at hell of a fucking price. That deal was something you give up for Watson. They must really hate fucking 1rst round draft picks.
We need a new GM.
