I completely agree…but I was hearing late firsts or seconds for him.  Naw.  It really doesn’t bother me paying him.  He is our best player by far right now.

These guys can’t draft either.  Keep him

Late firsts? That was only from the people trying to act like it wasn’t enough. The Rams current pick is 7. Had we decided to rebuild (could have had pick 15 in this past draft for Moore) and wait on a QB until we had some talent there we’d have Corral leading us to pick 1 and pick 7 for Burns. That 2023 2nd we had in our hands for Burns could have been a solid TE at 36 or a small trade up. The 2025 Rams pick is also likely a top 10 pick IMHO. Adding in the $30M a year in cap space for FAs and we could have been set to actually plug in a QB.

Also, pick 7 in a mock on Tankathon is in the middle of 3 OTs, 3 edge rushers and Brock Bowers. Pick 7 could have been a legit LT to move Iky or a Burns replacement. Oh well, I guess it’s better to be 1-8 with little hope than a much more talented team with a bright future.

It didn't make any sense. But the really dumb part of it was blowing a timeout for it. When the play clock was running down, just take your delay and kick the XP. Don't double down on doing dumb stuff.

As a Clemson fan due to my son, I was laughing. My youngest and I watched the game and it made no sense at all. The only benefit was that if Clemson scored a TD you are technically two 8 point TDs away from tying. The problem is that if Clemson scored another TD the game’s over because Clemson would take a ton of time off the clock to score a TD. The timeout was just even more idiotic because then you couldn’t stop Clemson on 3 and out without losing a bunch of time.

I feel like I’ve seen that going for two way too early a bunch lately and almost every time it didn’t work and it just put the team behind more.

If that ends up being Caleb’s last college game, he’ll still go top-5 overall if he declares, but that caps off such a disappointing season for the guy. 

He’s got damn good skills but man, what a dud this year was for that whole program. His attitude blows too, very entitled guy who can easily get framed as a “villain”

Here comes the first showdown between Coach Prime and Colorado.

There is NO WAY Colorado is going to quietly go along with this given Sapp's complicated legal/employment background of sexual harassment, assault, domestic violence, soliciting prostitutes, etc. That's gonna be a very tough sell in Boulder.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
