For example if darnold got in to few bad games Former Lions QB Matthew Stafford Could Land With Familiar Team
it’s the vikings
they’ll probably give darnold a 3-year extension
The dude is 5-0! He has a great TEAM around. Wait till he starts feeling his oats. That’s a very good QB. Look at the teams he’s been on.
Don’t think for a second he’s not a capable NFL QB with everything he needs to win around him.
This is going to be a brawl with the winner taking first place in the division.
Yeah he has a hot hand. If he keeps it and gets them to the playoffs? Duh! Of course you lock him up, and make your rookie take the job away from him.
Last week it was miami…this week its minnesota…next week it will be…
did you see the accuracy grades on him? On those terrible teams he tended to start of hot like minshew and then teams adjusted to his tendencies and he became pick city. Maybe he’s grown. Certainly now has a better team around him. Still feel like Darnold is a bottom half of the league QB.
Content about content is the worst kind of content. One person’s bullshit compounded by another person’s shitty take on that bullshit.
I didn’t think he was a capable college QB but I just assumed that was my anti USC bias.
It was. I had him the best QB in the hat draft.
Let’s not forget they have 1st rounder JJ McCarthy waiting in the wings. That alone makes any move for Stafford highly unrealistic.
Why do people think the Rams are looking to reboot? I think they believe they are an upswing team suffering from bad luck. Presuming Staff can stay healthy and play well for a few more years.
Yeah, I don’t know. Content creation I suppose.
An upswing team with the loss of most of that Superbowl defense and O-line?
They were an aging team that hit their pinnacle and now have to reset for the future…but if they could get everyone to stay healthy and add some defensive pieces, they could be good again…a lot of ifs though.
Stafford’s hall of fame chances are decreasing and weren’t great to start with. That’s about the sum of it.
Says who? Even if it’s what we believe, they’ve certainly never operated that way.
Is that what your think or what your think the Rams believe?
Bc I feel pretty confident that the Rams think:
A:) they’re passable at OT and Uber-elite at IOL when healthy
B:) they hit on four DL in the last year and a half and are some seasoning away from being dominant upfront.
They need a corner or two but it’s a great draft for that. I think they’ve always been okay with replacement level LBers.
I think they believe if they can punch a ticket this year they’ll be a threat if healthy and that with one more plus draft they’ll be one of the NFC contenders for the next few years if Staff’s health hangs in there.
Oh, I’m sure the Rams thought before the season that they’d be a decent team and could make some noise. Especially after hitting on Puka last year, if Kupp could come back with Kyren, that’s a pretty good threesome of playmakers. But I’m just talking that when you look at the Rams, they are 30th worst in Cap Space and lost Aaron Donald, Ramsey, Leonard Floyd, Von Miller, and whoever else was on that Superbowl defense.
I don’t know about hitting on the 4 D-linemen, I think that’s a bit presumptive. They struck gold last year with their 2 DT’s but playing next to Aaron Donald never hurts. I think Kobie Turner is doing well this year again so they might have hit on that one. And I liked Fiske and Verse but they’ve combined for 2 sacks so far this season…but they are rookies so we’ll see. Byron Young did great last year as a rookie and has 2 sacks so far this year.
Stafford’s health has been a question mark for a long time. He’s tough as nails but kind-of injury prone…although he tends to play through them but the injuries do seem to effect his game when he tries to play through them.
Again, if the stars align and those guys can stay healthy, they’d be tough…but all those guys seem to take their turns with injuries.
This I agree with. And if they do end up resetting again this, and their pursuit of his replacement, will be why.
May be they will trigger the trade next week ,stafford has to come one more time to Ford field
Not likely to happen unless a future playoff game.
