Weddle and his loyalty

[GoodBadUgly]

Weddle won't divulge Ravens' secrets to Rams

Rams safety Eric Weddle, who played the previous three seasons in Baltimore, won't be sharing any insights about his former team ahead of Monday night's game.

Tell me brothers. How am I supposed to feel about this?

Right now, I'm conflicted to say the least.

 

[ninedeuce]

This bothers me. This bothers me greatly. The tiniest piece of intel could be the difference in a playoff spot.

 

[socalrams90]

Yeah I’m pretty sure the checks he cashes have the word “Rams” somewhere written them.

What a joke. Guarantee Peters is singing like a canary and I’m still convinced Suh was the factor in our loss to the Bucs.

Screw Weddle and his “loyalty”. Should’ve stayed there.

Flacco is a statue on the pocket.....that was his tip.

 

[PhillyRam]

Meanwhile Marcus is singing like a bird in Baltimore.

 

[VegasRam]

Seriously?
I kinda like his stance.
But if you you think he’s not setting the D based on his knowledge, you’ve never competed.

 

[FaulkSF]

I don't think he really needs to say anything on the defense. The coaches have the all-22 and see the Ravens play mostly zone, and man-off coverage to please Peters. Does this remind you of anyone's defense? It should.

Martindale is the same guy who has coached the Ravens last year. When Pierce or Williams take a breather run the ball as long as there are more blockers than linemen.

They know Harbaugh is an egotistical A-hole who is not above running up the scoreboard and tossing in trick plays to do so in the preseason.

I think Wade is well aware and knows what he needs to do.

 

[TomMack]

Sounds great Eric....but who’s paying you now.
I agree let’s win it on the field. But if we lose your officially on my shit list.

But what about that linebacker, Kenny Young???

 

[Cjcinec]

I think your loyalty should be to the team you’re currently playing on especially when the Ravens basically let him go. If you know what’s coming and you don’t let your teammates know then you’re not being loyal to your current team. Either way I’m sure Baltimore has changed some of their signals and even if you know them you still have to stop the play. Film study can only do so much so it still comes down to execution. Rams have two former Ravens defensive players and the Ravens have Peters. I’m sure Peters remembers the Rams offense from practicing against them for a year and a half. I don’t think it will benefit either team in any special way. Bottom line is which team executes their game plan successfully and makes the plays will win. Weddle should just help Wade as much as he can and not advertise it.

i say is a smoke screen...

Exactly he wants to win. Hes gonna do whatever it takes

 

[fearsomefour]

But what about that linebacker, Kenny Young???

Forgot about him.

 

[ScotsRam]

There is nothing Weddle can tell anyone that they dont already know. It's all on the tape.

 

[Dieter the Brock]

Well if he doesn’t tell us all he knows.....

 

[tempests]

He's said this all along. People asked him about it in the offseason and his answer hasn't changed.

I don't put much stock into intel gleaned from other places. Teams are surely aware of the possibility of their former players trading secrets and protect themselves accordingly.

 

[OregonRamsFan]

Mind games. That’s all.

I caught Golic and Wingo discussing this on my drive in to work this morning. Golic said he sang like a canary with the Dolphins ahead of his upcoming game against his former Eagles.

I do have to question the levels of my own hypocrisy as I processed the subject topic. You see, I caught the Golic and Wingo discussion half way through the segment, and missed some of the context. ….Kept hearing "Rams/Ravens"....."he" won't give secrets on former team....I figured they were talking about Marcus Peters. And that made me feel pretty good about that guy. I bought into the "loyalty" part.

Now I get to work, log on to this site, to catch more of the details, and realize the script is flipped, and the segment was about Weddle. All I can say is: What a fucking douche bag!

I'm chuckling now. This actually sums up my entire lifetime fandom with the Rams.
Bad call benefits the Rams in a win?...oh stop being a cry baby.
Suh...Dirtiest player in the league. Joins the Rams? now wait a minute, Suh's a stand up dude.
Running into the kicker? Taunting? Unnecessary roughness? Tuck Rule? Both feet down?
100% of the time, I see the 50/50 calls through my homer goggles. 99% of the time I see the 10/90 calls through my homer goggles too.

I digress. Yeah. Weddle is being a douche bag.
A douche bag that is going to lead our defense in a shutdown performance and a victory over the Ravens.

In closing:
Weddle Rocks!
Go Rams!

 

[DrRage46]

Fuck him

 

[badnews]

Yeah I am not going to knock Weddle for his position.
If the Rams coaches and players can't dissect the film then make and execute a functional game plan without hacking their codes (stealing signals) and using their private data (insider knowledge), then so be it.
The Rams are perfectly capable of winning this game without having seen the Ravens cards...
