Now that Farve has turned down the Rams. A few candidates..

Now that the Rams have been turned down by Brett Farve, here are a few QB's they could go after for the remainder of the season.  (The real reason Farve turned down the Rams.  No John Madden to say his name ever five minutes! :D )

 

#1) Archie Manning:  I guarantee that Archie would fill the seats in whatever stadium the Rams went to.  Who knows, maybe Peyton and Eli can give him a few pointers.  So, he hasn't played since the 83-84 season.  The NFL is a passing league now. 

 

A look at Archie's numbers:

 

Quarterback for the New Orleans Saints (1971-1975 and 1977-1982), Houston Oilers (1982-1983) and Minnesota Vikings (1983-1984).

Led NFL in Pass Attempts (448) and Completions (230) in 1972.

Ranks 46th on NFL All-Time Pass Attempts List (3,642).

Ranks 47th on NFL All-Time Pass Completions List (2,011).

Ranks 56th on NFL All-Time Gross Yards Passing List (23,911).

Ranks 78th on NFL All-Time Passing Touchdowns List (125).

Ranks 38th on NFL All-Time Passes Intercepted List (173).

Ranks 11th on NFL All-Time Times Sacked List (396).

Ranks 8th on NFL All-Time Yards Lost List (3,092).

 

#2) Kurt Warner: Won 2 NFL MVP awards.  MVP of Super Bowl XXXIV.  Last played in 2009.  He's play for the Ram before as well. 

 

No way am I bringing up Vinny Testaverde's name.

    • It's going to take time to really evaluate new ownership. I still have some hopes that they can get us past the curse of the Jordan years. We got screwed over by the league with the lottery yet again, nothing in this draft was ever going to make people happy after that happened. 
    • The Hornets were screwed when they lost out on the #1 pick. Outside of Cooper Flagg this was a terrible draft class full of risky prospects and red flags. Kon Knueppel likely won't ever be a superstar - or even a star, realistically - but he can be a solid contributor for a long time in the league. That's actually more than I think will end up being the case for many of these players.
    • I guess we should disregard what all these places say about our draft? And just trust you guys on this board? And as far as the Mark Williams trade, most places are saying we got the much better end of that trade for what its worth to yall. Bleacher report has Kon a "B", BR has him C+, Fansided A-, NBC Sports overall draft an A-, Sports Illustrated overall A-, MSN has Kon a B+, Yahoo Sports has us at an A- overall. Here is what ESPN posted:  Post-Draft Analysis Knueppel's well-rounded perimeter game and terrific 3-point shooting ultimately won out in Charlotte's decision process, with the Hornets attracted to his fit with their current roster and his long-term potential. He should help stabilize their perimeter minutes immediately, with his dependability all season at Duke a major selling point. The Hornets were thought to be exploring moves here, but were content to simply grab their guy and move forward. This is a strong match that should pay off right away for both sides. -- Jeremy Woo
