🚨 🚨 🚨
AD is B-A-C-K: #Rams star Aaron Donald is coming of retirement to play for his old team with a 1-year, $20M deal with playoff incentives up to $30M, per me and @AdamSchefter.
After two seasons away, Donald will play alongside Myles Garrett in a star-studded D-line.
Everyone jumping to a Puka suspension… but the Rams didn’t have anyone at WR 3-5 they truly trust and no one let take the top off the defense.
He may only make two catches all year, but he can be out there all year.
I don’t think these are related. #Rams
The Rams are the fucking best man. Go win a Super Bowl and do it in your $5B stadium, again. Leave no god damn doubt.
The balls on this team. SO INCREDIBLY FUN.
With the Stafford & Higbee replacements in place… hopefully… the #Rams have to be thinking of using 2027 picks to bolster the 2026 roster (WR) thru a trade. That’s the only thing that makes sense. That and they want to resign Verse,
Fiske, Young & Turner.
Am I crazy for thinking the Rams need to trade down in the first to ensure it has the ability to at least make a realistic offer for Arch in 2027?
Is it even possible? Maybe not with where #Rams are drafting, but let’s say 13 & 29 in 2027 and a 2028 first - plus whatever else.
The #Rams must trade or use FA to fill in gaps for 2026. Those draft picks must grow into whatever it takes to get Arch Manning in the 2027 draft. (Unless Burrow becomes an option, then those picks are to be used for him)
How silly. This takeaway is a joke.
Both teams were gifted TD’s.
Only one gave up 3rd and long consistently. Only one played those 3rd downs as soft as possible.
Only one had DE’s disappear.
Only one had three LBs covering no one on the Bobo TD.
I can keep going..
Snead, McVay and Shula pissed away an MVP season from a 37-year-old QB.
Completely ignored secondary.
DE’s have been ghosts for months and still played soft coverage on every 3rd down.
Special teams disaster… what a shit show it’s been for two months now. #Rams
His indifference on home field… his and Shula’s insistence on soft coverage on every 3rd down…. They were gifted a TD and so were the rams on the Taunting call. His philosophy and the FO deciding not to acquire any secondary help was way more costly.
The secondary sucks, but the defensive line failing to pressure Darnold is just as big of a fail, and it causes the secondary to have to defend longer than it should. Also, the bend but don’t break coverages only work when pressure is applied. It’s a much bigger problem. #Rams
It could be 3rd and 47 and Seattle will get it with this soft ass coverage Shula and McVay have called all year. It’s embarrassing when the QB isn’t being rushed and isn’t making mistakes. #Rams
This defense. Let’s put a LB on the best receiver in football this year jot named Puka. This is a f’n joke. This secondary and play calling. can’t stop anyone. #Rams
