Goff starts next year in Detroit unless they ship him out for more picks. Pencil the Rams in for the NFC championship game.

New Lions GM came from the Rams.

I would certainly not pencil the Rams in for the NFC Championship game. Heck, playing in the West, I wouldn’t even guarantee a Playoff spot. If the 49ers get a quarterback and get healthy, they’re not guaranteed to be better than anyone in their own division.

Then the Packers will still be good, the Bucs will still be good, if the Saints get a quarterback they will still be good. Stafford is good and makes the Rams better. But I don’t think he takes them from a 6 seed and makes them a machine.

Stafford out of Detroit is going to be a revelation.

I think the Rams will be better with Stafford, but I never viewed Stafford as a guy who would be elite if he were out of Detroit. That being said, with that defense I can certainly see the Rams taking that next step. They were only one step away from the conference championship this year so that's hardly a preposterous notion.

Two 1st round picks sounds great, but a huge difference between top 5-10 pick and 25-30 pick. These are 2late 1st rounders and a late 3rd. Plus a very average (at best QB).

My opinion is a win for the Rams. Got rid of Goff contract and can re-work Stanford’s to open cap space.

Stafford gives the Rams a shot at the Super Bowl. Lion are into their latest rebuild. Win, win.

On paper I think they are definitely better than the Cards in the West. And right now certainly better than the 49ers(this could change with health and adding a QB of their own).

To be honest, barring some significant moves I think Stafford also makes them better than Seattle. They have a massive edge on D. The offensive skill players are about equal. O line is edge to the Rams. Now Seattle loses their heavy QB edge(Russ is still better of course).

If Stafford stays healthy, I'd definitely make the Rams the favorite out West.

Anywhere but New England. Not seeking a reunion with Patricia? Weird.

Is my dislike of the Badgers clouding my judgement? I feel like Jim Leonhard would be an underwhelming choice for DC.

They were talking a bunch about him as an option last week on MKE sports radio, and I figured it was just standard local nonsense chatter like “oh let’s mention the homegrown DC of the Badgers, what a cool story if he went to GB too”. But I agree with you. And I’m not even a Packers fan. Just feel like they could do better than a fairly inexperienced college coordinator

Disagree. Who knows if anyone will be good or not. Lefleur, while he had NFL coachin' experience was a "gamble." Maybe bringing in some young stuff, who played in the League, will be someone the playas can relate to, rather than recycling the old farts, aina?

The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole · « **Reply #1986 on:** February 05, 2021, 12:22:41 PM »

I'm with 4ever. Leonhard is a 3-4 guy who played in Pettine's system so he knows what the player's know. He had a tremendous reputation in the league as a player and will likely be a college coach somewhere in the next couple of years if he wants to go in that direction.

I am not saying he would be the best option. I really don't know enough to know. But I can certainly see why they would be interested.

Don’t fire Pace and give him another year to absolutely obliterate the franchise from the inside. Can’t wait to see what they give up for a dude who was HORRIFIC all season

unnatural carnal knowledge. Me.

There was absolutely zero question Pace was going to do whatever it took to get the best QB out there (in his opinion) so there would be some chance at success next year so that he could keep his job.

Translate: Ownership gave Pace the ability to screw-over the future of the franchise in order to keep his own job. They permitted a culture of individual>team.

There are rumors that the Raiders wanna gun for Watson so Carr would be available. If the Bears were in that sweepstakes, I would get it. I don’t love Carr but he’s played at a high level recently and just had a nice season.

Wentz, for any meaningful value like they are reporting the Eagles want, is just...wow

Jim Leonard to GB? He's the heir apparent in Madison, but I don't see Chryst leaving for quite a while.

CreightonWarrior · « **Reply #1992 on:** February 05, 2021, 10:21:51 PM »

Yikes, Britt Reid, Andy Reid’s kid, hit a couple vehicles, one of which had run out of gas in KC last night. Life threatening injuries to one kid, injuries to another. Admitted to having a few drinks. Not good.

britt has a little history with "stuff" going back to 2007-2008 or so. hope the victims, particularly the 5 year old is ok. if that kid doesn't make it, britt's story is a whole lot different. interesting they said britt's injuries were minimal but he is being holed up in a hospital some where.

odds are still kc -3/56

Dont know much about Leonhard because I do not follow the Badgers. He does seem highly regarded. My concern is if you didnt like Pettine and his system, why would you hire a Pettine disciple who runs a variation of the same system?

He turned down the Packers, so now you know where he has thrown his lot.

Maybe LaFleur doesn’t think the system was the problem. Calls and execution were.

Looks like Packers are going with Rams LB coach Joe Barry, per Demovsky
