Not that I want to give the FO too much credit but to he honest I think CMC was extended because he’s a special player period. Not because he plays RB. He has HOF talent. CMC really needs more looks at WR. I agree with you that our philosophy historically has become a little dated but I also think the execution of that philosophy had faults. Keuchly was the GOAT. Having that kind of field general is priceless. He was our cheat code that kept our defense competitive when they had no business being on the field some years. QB is absolutely essential. A clutch one at that. But most SB teams with great QBs also have positions sprinkled with players that have overwhelming talent swinging the balance in your favor. So I don’t think keeping CMC was the problem so much as it is Ron and Rhule running him into the ground .

When we bring back Cam.

He literally outgunned Drew Brees in the 2017 playoffs. If Devin Funchess wasn't trash, that's another signature win and playoff run. He was on his way to eclipsing his 2015 season in 2018 before he was hurt. And I'm not one to harp super hard on stats because plenty of QB's padded their stats with checkdowns to look better than they actually were (Teddy Bridewater, Drew Candyass Brees) but when Cam was finally given safety valves in 2018, the media was all the sudden crowning his ass. Does that mean he was actually better or the opportunity for efficiency was there? I think you can make that argument for a lot of players. Cam could make all the throws and is the best passer this franchise has ever had. He just played the game like Brett Favre with legs, and that was what was best suited to him. If Matt Ryan had Cam's athleticism then he wouldn't have the stats he has either. Cam's greatest weakness was Ron Rivera leaning on the RPO to save his own ass when he as about to get fired. We should have kept going where Chud left off. Let Cam sling the ball over the field with his cannon. Ron learned he could just use Cam to convert 3rd downs and extend the primes of Williams and Stewart by eliminating the match ups in the ground game and serving his ball control offense. We ran the ball on first and second down more than most of the teams in the NFL during Rons tenure. We frequently put Cam in 3rd and long/miracle scenarios. He deserved a better coach.

Did you say the same of Delhomme when he selfishly tanked the franchise with multiple INT games for two seasons. Not reading the field with shitty mechanics. Just because Cam could run doesn’t mean he had to prove to anyone he could play the game like an average athlete. He literally carried the offense to 15-1 with scrubs with multiple freaks throws and clutch moments. And sometimes when your 6-5 240 and a sub 4.5, the smart play is run for 5 yards and a first then to trust Devin Funchess to catch the ball. If you look at way the Rivera the offense was ran and the statistical breakdowns of our play calls, we actually put Cam in very hard positions to succeed and more often than not he made it work. He was excellent in 2017/2018 before his shoulder got crushed.

WR missed his mark.

This is going to OT bare minimum

They’re about to set Burrow up for his Brady moment.

What happened to the first 5 yards rule?

Rams can run the ball if they want

Gotta call a spade a spade. That was a god damn trash holding call.

LA has to go for it

Gotta respect going for it but damn that might cost them edit: my bad I’m blitzed

Oh poo that doesn’t look good

Cooper Kupp is no Steve Smith

Two Kings Casino = If Walmart had a Casino

Damn man. Seems like Rams know they’re losing momentum and know they can’t do anything about it.

Rams gotta get their poo together

I mean if they can take a SB from Cam they can certainly give one away. Im actually rooting for the Bengals but you can’t deny the media is cucking for Burrow right now.

NFL orchestrating Burrows career right now lol

Wow Rams are gonna lose lol

Wow Rams got screwed there

Anyone else feel like this half time show is a little awkward? These are early 2000’s acts.

Wow Stafford might have just blown this game.
