    Yeah, but easy schedule or not, they beat who is in front of them.
    We had the same easy team they just beat. Stroud tried to give us that game and we blew it badly.

    Vrabel turned that team around but the refs still seem to favor them during certain game situations. It’s been that way for about two decades. I would love to see Denver somehow come through or have either NFC team beat them in the SB. Watching Kraft hoist another Lombardi while nut hugging Gooddell would be absolutely sickening to me.

    I dont think anyone is beating Seattle but wouldn’t surprise me either if NE does. Assuming they dont meltdown against Denver next week.

    Pats are positioning themselves to be a top team again. When they bolster that WR room, going to be even harder to beat them.

    Stroud was ass.. I wasn’t a fan of him coming out simply because of the history of Ohio State QB’s in the NFL.

    He defied this his first year but my goodness.. he has regressed every year. His decision making is terrible and he is waiting for guys to be college open.

    Is something wrong with Chubb? Only 4 carries? Seemed like he would be a better option after the starting RB went out for a while.

    Can Stidham be the next Foles and Hostetler? Denver has a good D... but offense will have to put up some points. Would much rather Broncos represent AFC in Super Bowl than Patriots.

    it's not Ryan, but CJ sucks, he really does.

    they have a big decision to make soon....

    I would have benched Stroud at half time, that is for sure

    Stafford and Co. CAN beat SEA - they outplayed them in early DEC, the just LOST on some really fluke stuff.

    Darnold can choke any time and any where....

    Yeah the rams can win...they were up 30-14 in Seattle in the fourth quarter before losing in overtime by a 2 points attempts by Seattle...It was a coin toss game

    I think Stidham just has to run the plays Payton calls. Not saying it's a plug and play situation. But it probably won't be some difficult situation if he can execute the plays.

    Any given Sunday but the Rams have not been good in their last 6 games or so not counting a couple bottom feeders at the end of the year. They are squeaking by game after game, which there is something to be said about winning close contests but if not for Williams INT at the end on what was miscommunication between he and Moore, Rams lose that game.

    I am with you on Stroud. IMO, he does not fit the football culture ( not Spartan enough which has nothing to due with Michigan State! ) and is overrated as a passer. He scored very low on the wonderlic. A different cat who keeps his private life secret. The NFL has the book on him as a passer. He was great as a rookie though.

    " The test, which replaced the Wonderlic for NFL testing, "scientifically measures an athlete's game-speed cognitive abilities down to a millisecond level."

    Stroud took the test multiple times and scored the lowest of the 2023 quarterback prospects, with 18 percent out of 100. The low score could be a red flag to some teams as they finalize their draft board and may lead to some questioning whether to take the prospect."

    OSU's Ryan Day is a modern day QB whisper and can elevate OSU's QB's play.

    What is your opinion on Howard? He was a OSU QB who really shined in his last four playoff games.



    Judge Chubb next year. He was injured this year ( Rib ) He was badly hurt in 2023, requiring two surgeries. I think he is done being an NFL starting back.

    But they are still alive....Their game in Seattle in december was a coin toss game and the rams have the number vs Darnold since last year...I don't said the rams will win but they have a shot....

    I guess when a team loses in the divisional round 7 straight times, the fans will want to replace the HC? It can't be that each game should be measured on its own. When your QB throws 4Ints in the slush it comes down to coaching.


    Or.... maybe because he punted down 12 with 3mins left in the game.


    Just can't seem to get the green to work for me.

    Stafford is a gamer, they always have a shot with that guy.

    True...He had a bad game in the cold in Chicago but he is still a great QB...I think he will be in the HOF,not his fault if Detroit was so bad when he was with the lions

    And McVay is a very very good coach. Always game prepares and puts his players in a position to win.

    Nahhh. You can't pull your starter. That's a lose lose situation.

    Stroud looks rough out there. He'll start next year though

    Rams defense impresses me... they don't have any real SuperStar's like Donald, other than maybe Verse. If Steelers hired their DC... I wouldn't sh!t the bed.

    One of the lowest paid defensive units in football. Rams are opposite of the Steelers, they spend all their money on the offensive side of the ball.

    Despite what the Irish Cream says, Shula has done a good job.

    Going to have to disagree with you. The other guys on the team mean more.
    The defense played their heart out all year to have somebody ruin it for them. Pull him
    try another player couldn't hurt at that point.

    Stroud should be permanently designated to NFL back up QB role from now on. His performance was abysmal at best. Still can’t believe he played in the second half. He was terrible for two full playoff games in a row. Too bad the Steelers were worse.

    No coach will win with an Ohio State QB. Stroud once again proving the norm of OSU QB's sucking in the NFL.
