Lack of control and direction. Hell, Roger's has more influence then most of the staff on a team owned by fans. Nothing about that leads me to be optimistic this doesn't underwhelm. It is goofy and dangerous. His ego has been a known thing. That makes it also incredibly stupid and avoidable. For Love? Just dumb on so.many levels.

As far as the terrible choice vs terrible job, we will find out soon because if he keeps making bad choices it will confirm he is also doing a terrible job.

That was what I understood, I am just waiting for actual confirmation through actions. My response was more tuned to the other poster that doesn't understand you can evaluate more than just the guy in charge.

The fact he said he has no regrets should be enough to fire the guy for doing a terrible job.

Yes Rhule is the HC and all signs point to him having control to some degree. He still has people working under him that can be analyzed.

Im encouraged by looking around. I'm concerned we are on the cusp of doing something incredibly dumb that will result in another wasted year or years.

Stafford is the peice that gets a playoff fridge team over thr hump or new staff hired. We are not even a fringe playoff team and trading for an old QB vs finding a young on to build around is my concern. Maybe that's how this will go, I just think it's a crap option.

I'm not concerned with what they netted when Hutney was involved. If this guy thinks a 30+ QB is the missing piece to this roster then I feel confident saying I have serious ongoing concerns about our new GM. Different circumstances and it would be a viable option, not with ours.

Fritters not looking very good so far. This would have been a massive fail for us. I don't have an issue with exploring options but the #8 for Stafford with our roster issues is concerning approach to roster building.

That's very disappointing to hear. It's gross like ketchup on a steak.

I agree. Not sure about which post you are referring to in regards to aging well. The Rams are dealing away 1st to get to a SB. The Seahawks trade back and go for volume to get a SB. Both look like viable options but when done regularly it's a little suspect.

I'm not convinced Teddy is on this team regardless next season. There are plenty of other backups we could have starting as a long shot to do something more with an opportunity.

It's a talented roster for sure. I was just notating that they have leaned towards a gamblers approach in recent years and that's fine sporadically but not something I would be happy with they way the Rams roll with it.

Yall are discounting the risk the Rams are taking. They are also dumping their last drafted QB. I don't want to take the Rams path, seems like a lot of unnecessary risk. If Stafford went down with an injury this can blow up in their faces. KC spending 2 first and a 3rd on Mahomes, yes please! I just like the KC approach more. Some drafting, some dealing pucks for players and some free agency acquisitions. This approavh and its well roundedness vs the Rams all in gamble, I would choose KC all day.

To me the relevance is that there can be droughts. If you see a franchise QB, jump on it. If you see a franchise LT, jump on it. There are still options and sometimes the best option is still garbage. All that is huge.

Nasty drought there for a few years. We lucked in with Cam. Since 2017 that has changed. Watson and Mahomes in the 1st, yes please and thank you.

I am so glad we are not a part of any of this.

Very random and weird but not in fun ways.

Hopefully it is like what we did at GM, look at everything but this time we can low ball with a minimum offer and fill a 90 man roster. I don't want to linger on what happens if we can't get a good QB this offseason.

Sadly that's probably what the Texans are thinking right now, at least the owner and his pet goober.

I get why Holmes would see it that way, you make a great connection on why this could happen, it just doesn't look like a very good path to improving by trading for a worse QB with a worse contract. This just looks like a win for the Rams and the Lions one step back under 'new management'. If I was a Lions fan, I would see this as a huge downgrade.
