  1. Win-wins are great. I love it pushing the Rams up the draft board. Really depressing how limited our coaching was and is.
  2. The first time I looked at him going into that draft I couldn't belive the ducks he was throwing in college and the people saying he was a legit QB prospect. It was mind boggling. The ball came out like it was launched by a wet noodle. It was unbelievably bad but we also went after Little and his film was terrible also. Hurney really had some beer goggles on at times.
  3. Yeah it just changed in 2020. IDK, the pro-bowl has fan engagement involved (maybe 2/3rds?) and the AP 50 person panel decides the individual awards. Maybe customer involvement gives it more credence then a faceless panel of 'experts' to the player's union? I don't pay attention to either anymore personally, just jaded from the NFL's marketing bs and not winning for so long.
  4. I don't see any. Pro bowls can gets a different 5th year option amount in the new CBA, but not as an alternative. Link 3. First rounders selected to the Pro Bowl on the original ballot in any of their first three seasons will receive a fifth-year salary equal to the transition tag of the player’s fourth year. 4. First rounders selected to the Pro Bowl on the original ballot in more than one of their first three seasons will receive a fifth-year salary equal to the franchise tag of the player’s fourth year. So no, it has no value other than recognition. Given that Pickett is the favorite to win this year odds wise (Link) I would raise the question if it has any value beyond a participation trophy at this point. Edit: some reason that site just updated and Pickett is now 7th in odds.
  5. He can throw a football so even if he bust he is 100% better than Clausen who had trouble throwing an NCAA ball lol.
  6. True but it's also a decent strategy if there is a good plan in place. It all matters who is pitching it and Fritterer doesn't get the pass from me at this point. The rookie brought in would be key, IMO, more than the bridge QB who shouldn't be more than a short bridge. I still want to see any rookie starting by the end of the year regardless, good or bad get in there and show what you have been working on.
  7. I wish we would completely purge all of the Rhule and Hurney people and go in a different direction. I'm still hoping for a consultant to be brought in because I don't believe in Fritterer without help and direction. Steichen looks like the prize this offseason. I'm still skeptical of Johnson and Waldron.
  8. There is, they just found a great manipulation that they overused.
  9. Loomis was a stud but the bill came due and it's crippling...love it. It's a short term strategy and they thought it would go forever. Say it with me 'there is no cap' lol.
  10. Playing the constant victim and being 100% ridiculous should get you a Huddle award. You have earned zero respect and will get it so maybe just ignore me and I'll keep ignoring you moving forward?
  11. 100%. Ellis also mentioned that. Either way we are lucky and should be excited moving forward. Year 2 is a big one with a full NFL offseason not full of all the draft stuff.
  12. Keep being a spaz. It probibly helps distracts from the hook in your mouth. I said zero negatives about Ickey, very opposite. Probowl is a popularity contest and can be a joke. The fact it triggered you is just amusing. Same guy new name lol
  13. It really doesn't matter. Him being a stud at LT does. Just celebrate Ickey and stop caring about popularity awards.
  14. I would be happy with a regular pick for a QB in the 1st, no trades. It's never perfect but the odds are a lot better. I wouldn't mind a miss but a low ceiling guy like MJones or Pickett would be worst case scenario for me. If we miss out on in the first than draft one later and be prepared to draft one again, just like we should do after Corral last year. Keep drafting QBs until we get a franchise QB, ok or servicable is not a reason to pass on a potential upgrade.
  15. It get it, it's unconfirmed but others have already joined him so it's reasonable logic. It's crazy they hired him without Snow given their history. That guy must give amazing interviews with these people lol.
  16. What was the word? I looked real quick and nothing. Is he still going to coach? Either way that is some heavy info for Rhule and I find it hilarious.
  17. Coaching is the top issue for us and will determine if it's even worth arguing about what body plays QB moving forward. The Rams got a SB so the trade still was worth it.
  18. That is a two way street man. Sam is just a bad QB and has been since school. Nothing has changed there. I couldn't imagine being tied to a QB like Sam after climbing to the top of my profession. In these cases they were all terrible so it's just a puddle of sad outside of bank accounts. Maybe he could revitalize his career but he needs sometime in a non-dysfunctional place to be a backup for a little bit with a good offensive staff in place. I just personally don't see it with his issues. Other than his splash plays, there isn't a lot of positives in his game.
  19. Yes but I'm exhausted and it's hard to care after the last 4 years. I hope this game gets us the new coaching staff we desperately need next month.
