College Upsets

Being a Fresno alum I always pull for the Bulldogs. I don't even know what kind of coach Matt Entz is. But his coaching on the final drive was a head scratcher.

First and ten near the Oregon State 30 yard line. They have a good kicker. 38 seconds left. OSU has two timeouts. 3 straight short sideline passes completed. Stopped the clock being forced out of bounds each time. Coulda ran straight up the middle and force Oregon to use their timeouts. Then coulda ran the clock down a couple seconds before kicking the game winner.

Kicked a 43 yard field goal with 28 seconds left. Fortunately they a got pick six to seal it. But that was some poor coaching throwing sideline passes when you want to use clock. Oregon State had a lot of wide open receivers the previous two drives resulting in touchdowns.

Athletic ranks McVay #2 of top offensive playcallers

I've taken a long time to come around on McVay but boy oh boy am I believer. The last few years really cemented it for me. I thought he got the most out of a team that was not always the best in every position on paper, and showed great affinity for developing young talent and leading teams through real adversity. Easily the 2nd best coach in the NFL IMO and I am so glad we have him. It is hard to argue anyone is better than Andy Reid, in my view. All he does is make Super Bowls. Sure, Mahomes is amazing, but I don't think he is that much better than Stafford or several other elite QBs, and many years recently the AFC has had all the heavy weight contenders. So I don't think you can explain it away due to the QB. And even before that in Philly, he was routinely making the conference final with lesser QBs.

Wow! Holy crap!
I've been waiting YEARS for you to come around, Ontario! Glad you are now firmly on the "believer" bandwagon.

I've always enjoyed your well-reasoned posts. Congrats for having the stones to acknowledge you've changed your mind on a long-held belief.

Tony Pauline way too early mock draft

methomas50

14) LA Rams (via Atlanta Falcons): Ryan Baer/T/Pittsburgh​

This pick is going to raise a lot of eyebrows, yet Baer is already highly rated in the scouting community, and the Rams will be in the market for a right tackle after the season.

23) LA Rams: Drew Allar/QB/Penn State​

Allar grades high in areas of physical ability but needs a lot of work on his game. If anyone can coach the best out of him, it would be Sean McVay.

Tony Pauline’s NFL Mock Draft 1.0: Arch Manning to NFC North contenders, Garrett Nussmeier swooped by AFC North team, Drew Allar heads to NFC West

What better way to kick off the NFL season than with a mock draft! Things will most assuredly change, as teams will have better seasons than expected, while some prospects will make huge leaps up draf

The keeper league I am in I joined back when it was on paper as well, 25 years ago or so.
Now have players on the east coast, west coast, rockies, Sierra Nevada and the Deep South.
12 teams spread all over.
Its fun and after a quarter century or so finally won my first title last year.....haha.
NOW, I can rest on my laurels.

My second-longest league is a keeper auction league. Joined initially in 2002 (league started in 1999), played a few years then moved on. Was invited back in 2015 and been playing ever since.

Outside of a league I joined in '22 this is the only FF experience I've ever had where I remain championship-less. Pisses me off too b/c the biggest clown in the league (didn't even draft a full team this year) has a title.

I just suck at auctions and have all the luck, generally speaking, of Badluck Schleprock.

I wish I could survive on just a game station, but I need the more involved games that have to run on PCs, with Eve as an example having an insane amount of ways you can play it. And by the way that chart is outdated, there's a lot more going on now.

I used to play multiple MMOs, for many years. But no longer have that level of gaming energy lol. WoW had a good long run but it's a hot pile of shit now and so is ESO.

As my title states, I am an Everquest player. Been playing since 2000. That was the first MMORPH that did it right and WOW copied it and made it easier for soloing. Everquest requires groups for the most part. And now that we have derailed this thread....

Behind the Grind: Episode 4

I think Poona Ford is gonna be a much bigger deal than we give him credit for. He’s a fireplug and very hard to move. We’ve hardly talked about him, but wouldn’t surprise me at all to see us in a more traditional 3-4 front or 3-3 nickel to utilize the NT position against the run.
Click to expand...
Yes I agree it was an underrated signing. Just based on how that MFer played every time against us in the past, he's gonna help our defense. It's really difficult for OL to focus on Verse or one of these other excellent players we have up front when they have A gap pressure on top of it from Ford. And he's a player who does the work on early downs.

I asked ChatGPT to generate a post in the style of SoRam. You be the judge of the results:

I keep saying this & nobody listens so maybe I’m wrong but I’m not ?? Rams traded Quinn which was smart & dumb same time cause Floyd came later & was already there before then after ?? He had the better year AFTER Quinn left but before Donald’s peak maybe unless it was the Superbowl year which I still think was cause of Von not Floyd but you need BOTH so it’s not one or the other ??


People forget Rams almost gave up TOO FIRSTS for that DE from Carolina & if they had done it they would’ve missed on Verse or whoever came later maybe Jefferson or Akers can’t recall but it’s the same draft I think ?? You see how Les Snead dials up 5th round picks into 1st round talent but then again he misses on 1st round talent like Tavon Austin who I liked but didn’t like at the same time cause he was small ??


Then Stan paying ONE DOLLAR for SOFI that’s not just rent it’s leverage cause Jerry Jones told him after the Herschel Walker trade how to get LA back which I know cause I followed that vote from being a fly on the wall or maybe I just read it later same thing ?? Rams BACK to LA meant trade SJ39 to Cowboys but they didn’t do it when Dallas had TWO FIRSTS which could’ve been Parsons years before Parsons was even drafted ??

i'll be on my way, to my yearly quest, to put the six month bets down...

$100 on rams to win the SB

$100 on the over for the season win total... not even sure what that is now, it was 9.5

$100 on the rams to win the west...

and finally, and probably my best odds ... stafford for mvp!!!

it's a yearly thing, so a $400, six month long bet... about $16 per week give or take...

adds a little extra to the season, been doin it, off and on since 1999....

Here is my sneaky good pick. Odds of Jared Verse winning DPOY are anywhere from +1200 to +1500. $100 bucks on him to win it feel like good odds. I got +1400 on Fandual a few weeks ago. Big jump coming for Verse this year in terms of sacks. Book it :)

Help me out.

Spoon is a very inconsistent corner, always has been. He'll be meh for stretches at a time and then try to turn it on for a big game. He's not a speedster nor particularly fluid so he's always gonna have a problem running 40 yrds down the field with a receiver. It sounds like there are rumblings too that he's not particularly assignment sound when compared to others.

Teams didn't want him because of all this.

I think people look at interceptions in big games and think he's good. He's not particularly good. But, like someone said earlier, CB has one of the highest variance for play year to year. Here's hoping we can get his top level play this year.

I don't put a lot of faith in him play in and play out.

OFFICIAL LA Rams 2025 Practice Squad Signing thread

Parkinson, absolutely. But I'm not getting rid of Allen so easily. He's done well in limited snaps. And we need three tight ends, since Higbee is possibly gone after this year (I'm sorry, I like him and all, but he'll be thirty-two, and he's been injured tons.), and Parkinson being hopefully gone. Redman could possibly take the third blocking role or we could sign someone for it, but I want Allen on this team; he's a young 6'6" tight end with underrated receiving skills. He and Ferguson could make a deadly combo on 12 sets.
Click to expand...
I was hoping Davis Allen would have made great progress in his second year but he really didn't move the needle at all. Tight Ends typically take 2 or 3 years to develop so hoping Allen can progress a lot this year. If not, I believe we still have him for another year, cut Parkinson to save cap and draft another blocking TE. Ferguson, Allen, Redmen and a draft pick will round out the TE roster next year?
