Watch he plays magnificently in LA 

I mean McVay is one of the best play callers around and he has one of the best WRs.  I wouldn’t be shocked if he wasn’t the ultimate trainwreck.  

we really don’t do offense. 

I mean Baker sucks.   But he might not be as bad some expect.

Kupp is still out with an injury and may get shut down for the rest of the season if they are out of playoff contention.

Baker extends the playbook, if you think about it.

"Third down punt" is a new play.

Instead of getting grounding calls by throwing it out of bounds from the pocket, just drill the DT in the knee cap with a pass.

I was going to think of a third play, but the first two were not funny, so I am bailing.

On Tuesday afternoon, word emerged of the Rams claiming quarterback Baker Mayfield on waivers. Linebacker Bobby Wagner met with reporters after it became clear that Mayfield would be playing for the Rams.

Wagner’s responses, or lack thereof, were intriguing.

What’s his reaction to the news?

“Anything to help the team,” Wagner said.

What does he know about Mayfield’s game?

“I played against him once or twice I believe,” Wagner said. “Like I said, anything to help the team.”

What has Wagner seen from Mayfield in his career?

“I’m not trying to talk about all that,” Wagner said. “Like I said, anything to help the team, so let’s move past that.”

    • I'm left with two possible conclusions here. One, Reich just saw a sucker in Tepper and hit him up for a check to ride into retirement on. Two, Reich took the job expecting a different QB to be the pick probably through his influence of the draft process. He and Bryce seemed like a major mismatch from the get go. Unless he was just looking for one last payday I really don't think he would've taken the job if he felt like Bryce would ultimately be the pick. There was a lot of talk about Reich always preferring QBs with good size and big arms. Now granted, all else being equal who doesn't? But it was always talked about that Bryce was basically the physical antithesis of what Reich had historically preferred at QB. Hell, maybe it was a little bit of both. I can get this newbie owner to give me a pile of money based on my experience because his woefully inexperienced coach flopped horribly and then hopefully I can influence the draft process to get the QB I want. If not, oh well. At least I got paid! LOL
    • I don't think it's very accurate at all overall IMO. I just think back to the Cam era. Madden had to incorporate read option in order to even begin to replicate the Panthers' offense but there were only a handful of read option plays in the playbook. Realistically, I bet at a third of our passing plays in those days involved some aspect of read option and a third might be conservative.
    • Well that's the problem. What's "good enough" at this juncture? Have we not learned anything from our Carolina Panthers in this area? I don't see us getting a proper return value right now with the rest of the NBA knowing our predicament. Look at what the Pelicans have dealt with in relation to Zion. The best path is to revisit this next year where there is a high probability his value will increase with improvement under Charles Lee. The biggest variable is the question of how much he will actually play. We just have to wait and see. I know one thing. The NBA better give us minimum another top 3 pick.
