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.

https://www.si.com/college/2023/11/23/colorado-deion-sanders-says-warren-sapp-will-join-coaching-staff

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.

      Okay, now face the facta guyd

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
