Over achievers and underdogs all day for me...
Greg Gaines, Nick Scott,
..... and in their own amazing ways, Kupp and Donald.

But Matt Stafford???
Some of yall know I personally liked Goff and hated to see him go... but Matt Stafford epitomizes what I think of as a pure fuckin' gun slingin' natural and the quintessential badass Quarterback.
He did shit this postseason that I don't think ANYONE has properly put into context or really acknowledged for what it was....

I root for Bobby Wagner and the mission he will be on twice a year when we play the Seahawks.
I root for every rookie to make an impact.
I root for AD the be the first player ever to earn 4 DPOY awards.

Slam dunk AD for me.

I will wear his jersey for the rest of my life. I was a Jack Youngblood for many decades and never thought a player could take that one off my back.

Jack is very special to me but AD I really felt deserved the ring in his career. Everyone has a ”GOAT” and THEY are all respectful players with emotions aside.

I could be drowning in subjectivity but I have always said I loved football a smidgen more than I love my RAMS. I have never witnessed one player, in a position that the entire side of that line is supported to dominate a game all on their own. A QB in my eyes has 10 players supporting them by design. Not AD. He plays his game and it makes 10 others get big contracts on other teams that don’t ever seem to pan out their pay day.

AD is the GOAT of any generation. I hope the RAMS build a statue of him at SOFI.

He is the best player of all time. He was that before the ring, The ring just made it in stone.

GO RAMS!!!

Brandon Powell....The return game and special teams was so bad before they finally activated him and it seemed with one kickoff return against Jacksonville plus the punt return against the Vikings, he single handedly turned around the special teams.


That was definitely a "holy shit...did that just happen" moment!

Last season it was mosty Kupp.
When it was becoming clear he just might have the greatest ever season by a WR I just wanted him to do that.
And he and the team did.
The only way it could be bettered is for a WR to win the league MVP (which he was robbed of) as well as beating all his numbers and winning the SB & SBMVP.
I don't know when that might happen.

On the other side, when Von joined the team, it was all AD and Von hype. Rightly so.
However, I wanted Floyd and Robinson to make their mark.
Floyd played well and Robinson was superb in the post season.

I have been saying best pass in SB history but I also fell all considered best pace in NFL history. I have watched in pure amazing this play a hundred times.

I might even be obsessed with this play.

GREAT video share. Thank you.
I really need to read what I write.

Good lord.

Found out trying to clean it up there is a 60 minute time limit to do so. Fair enough. DOH!

AD for years now. He has changed the way I watch our defense when he is out on the field. I find him before every snap and watch him through the first second of the play.

Hard to not pick AD for me.

Every Jersey I have ever owned has had an immediate tragic ending. Got Faulk, (injury) Warner (Thumb), Holt (Injury), SJax (hired spags), Bradord, Gurley… so I stopped buying them because, well, I’m a jinx…

But then two years ago I got an autographed AD Jersey as a Christmas gift, I loved it but it terrified me…Still, I framed it, and hung it up on the wall and now The Rams are champs. He broke the curse. He’s my pick







Also, Cooper Kupp

Is there a Ram you don't root for? I root for all of them. If you can't do that you must not be much of a Ram fan.

Exactly. This line of thinking is what gave us the internal divide about our former QB

In an interview with him and his wife, Stafford said kidding of course about himself, "What's not to like". And I have to agree with him.
What I really like is, that he came to us with so much to prove and so much pressure and he came thru like it was nothing. Even during the 4-game loosing streak he didn't change one bit. I am not sure I have ever seen anyone so clutch in my life. I am not just talking on the field. In interviews in the locker room this dude never acts like anything affects him. Supremely confident and made so many eat their words. I can't wait to see act 2. Sincerely though, have you ever rooted for a team with so many good people on it?

I find Stafford easy to root for.

He is still somewhat disrespected out there. You see it in rankings. He is easy to root for because he is proving a lot of people wrong, and he seems likeable.

Its probably the disrespected angle that make me root “extra hard” for him.
