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.

      This guy pre-draft was saying he could take or leave football, and he seems to have been playing with that mentality ever since lol.

      Time to Start Roughing Out the '26 Draft--Needs and Pecking Order

      By BritishPanther · Posted

      Agreed, another safety would be nice. Bud Clark, TCU, is one I would like to see us take a flyer on later in the draft, if he stays healthy and we don't take someone earlier. I just really hope we draft a solid C this year. Tired of seeing us cycle through average to below average players in that area.

      Downfield Disparity

      By carpanfan96 · Posted

      Bryce doesn't like throwing into the middle of the field unless the play broke down or it's set up to give him a passing lane.  So because of this issue, most of the passing offense has to be outside the numbers towards the boundary. So you see him throw a lot of dump offs, swing routes, short side out routes, comebacks or deep balls outside the numbers using the boundary as protection of an interception.    Pretty easy for a NFL defense to see this and scheme against it.  All you have to do is run a shell cover 2 deep dime, LB plays a hook underneath, take the flat away with a blitz/flat zone option for the two inside DB's, outside two DB's play hook zone underneath and carry anything deep.    Pretty much what NO ran to take away Rico while also limiting What Bryce can do as well.
