The Rams were pretty good with a decent Goff.

The Lions sucked consistently with a much better QB than Goff in Matthew Stafford.

They switch and the Lions still suck while the Rams are better than they were with Goff and Stafford looks like he's a kid again.

Von Miller may be in the twilight of his career, but let him play situational downs opposite Aaron Donald and he'll have an immediate impact.

hopefully people will realize you can’t just plug in a good QB on a garbage team and franchise and expect results

but they probably won’t

Stafford made the right choice taking the Rams over Carolina.  Von Miller to LA is crazy. That guy totally beat the sh%t out of us in the SB and now he is with those two monsters.

L.A going all in and the Bronco's fans must be sick with this trade. Definitly the favorites to take it all now.

No, Rivera & Shula totally beat the sh%t out of us in the SB by not blocking him over and over again, while calling developing plays that took longer to develop that the QB had to throw.

They have a bleak, bleak future. My goodness. No first rounder until what? 2024? And just traded another 2nd and 3rd. They better win a Super Bowl these next few years, or that franchise will be in shambles.

Nah man kinda like the Lakers they’ll always be a destination free agents want to go to they don’t need draft picks as much as franchises like ours do. As long as they hit on their later round picks and they do an outstanding job of that mixed with good trades/free agent pick ups they’re going to be more than alright. Super interesting (to me) how they build their roster.

Great point. Certainly seems like the exception and not the rule. I think Miami could pull this off but Ross runs a terrible organization. I don't think anyone else could pull this strategy off and be as successful.

As much as I can't stand Von Miller as a football player, the Rams look like superbowl contenders to me.

They do, they do, but right now a lot of teams in the NFC look like legit contenders (GB, Tampa, Arizona, Dallas). The way injuries are hitting the league right now, any one of those teams could falter before the playoffs.

This is a weird, weird year.

For sure it’s definitely not a strategy most any other team could pull off.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
