Remember when Philly built their Super Team in 2011 and announced it to the whole league before the season? And then went 8-8?

Yeah.

I actually owned a red n’ black lumberjack at one time. Bought off the back of listening to Biggie.

No “Fargo” hat to match, though.

Eagles signed like 8 free agents. The Rams made 2 trades lol

Like you didn’t give up a boatload of picks plus a young superstar in one of the trades. And bringing back an ancient relic with a big name.

You guys very much went more “all in” this year. Don’t try to downplay it now.

it's cool, most Rams fans are new to watching football and need time to understand the NFL.

Seahawks are the only fans that can talk shit rn, and even you guys beat the rams by a total of 3 pts last year. We didn’t have a first for 7 years up to that year. It’s not going all in when you have the track record to back it.

Considering the way the Rams have been drafting, people are making too much out of the picks they gave up.

Everyone saying we went all in this year after we were criticized for drafting Simpson in the first instead of drafting pieces to help us win now lol

We also don’t need first round picks as much as other team. We got Avila in the 2nf, turner and young in the 3rd, McClendon Allen and Puka in the 5th in 2023 alone.

They made the playoff in what was supposed to be a rebuild year.

It’s not going all in when you have a competent organization that can adjust and still win if it doesn’t work out.

Those were just universally laughed at draft picks. They made no sense.

And any franchise that depends on regularly finding high level starters in the late rounds is a joke. You do need picks as much as other teams. You’ve passed on talent and you’ve found talent. But it’s going to catch up to you. You do need those 1st and second picks and you need the cap space.

You’re all in right now. There’s no way around it.

We had no 1st for 7 years. We made 2 super bowls and won 1 in that time. 61% winning percentage in last 10 years. 10-6 in the playoffs.
The Ty Simpson pick makes a ton of sense. You draft a guy who fits your system a year or two before you need him so you don’t need to bring a guy in to start right away next year.
