Just curious since I'm a draft guy to how you think that goes. I believe CB2 and O line are the 2 biggest needs. As you know I'm a proponent of round 1 guys stating right away, so IMO that would put CB2 in round 1 and O line in round 2. I could see it reversed if we want to lock in the RG because we seriously need to get Bark back to doing the damage we know he can. Will be interesting to see what Howie does to set up the '26 team for success.

DL is also a need long term. Need to look last one year when drafting.

The best player always has the biggest impact for his career. To me you draft for the career potential... not year 1 need.

CB and O line are career moves,thats why you take them high

If they feel that the BPA is one pf those positions...absolutely.

I really don't concern myself with that now. Even once the season is done... the resignings and the free agency comes first.

Let me ask you... you are a draft for need guy. Which move was the biggest impact... drafting Campbell or Makuba... or not resigning Becton?

We knew it wasn't a big spending season in free agency....but still, cleaning up the cap and signing your own guys comes first.

Or you just actually did exactly like I said and faked words in my mouth pretending it was a quote I made

Yikes

That was a loss. Pure absolute proof how those stat indicators aren’t so perfectly tied to winning.

Dude. You understand how dumb you sound?

Obviously not. Seems like what I’m dealing with is such dumb stuff instead. But I do understand how Mattwill struggles to understand the point I’m making. Mostly because he’s just not open minded willing to even try to consider it. But even that…is based off stupid stuff I face here.

So why don't you state exactly what you are talking about. Because to the rest of the world you look like an idiot every time Matt posts the quote you keep denying.

Say EXACTLY what " this extra BS" is.

Until you do that, you sound like a 4 year old with chocolate all over his face denying that he ate the chocolate cake!

Your communication skills blow! Matt backed up his point with the quotes... you now have to show what you mean. Until you do , you sound like the idiot, not anyone else.

If you don't want to be part of the discussion as an equal, why are you even here?

Where’s the confusion? FL quoted me…but added a whole bunch of his own stuff to it. Fairly basic and simple. I shouldn’t even need to explain or hold your hands through anything…it happened right here in front of all your eyes. How did you not notice it just see it yourself would be the bigger question?

F@lk you are frustrating human being ...condolences to your family and any possible acquaintances.

I quoted what he did exactly after it happened. Said all those directly to the quote he did it on. One post….should have been enough. How is it any of my fault that I pulled up and pointed it out immediately and said all this?

Sounds great….exactly what I did first thing when it happened. So now that you’ve been made very aware that I actually proceeded and handled it exactly like you so much later advised ….what are your thoughts surrounding it now?

First thing I did…which lead to all this. Thank you for what I’d assume would be your support and backing now that you know I did exactly what you suggest.

I think a real conversation needs to be had after this weekend regarding resting some guys if the results basically lock us into the #3 seed.

For me, Lane and Carter would be out until playoffs. Dickerson and Cam rest. I'm getting in work for some backup D players.

The issue is the Buffalo game on their turf in the cold. We know the last game will be backups but what about Buffalo. Does the league frown on that, possibly giving Buffalo an easy win?

Idk...but I'm fine resting guys it the right scenario plays out this weekend. #2 seed doesn't really matter as much as going in healthy

See I’ve mostly been of the opinion of just make the playoffs as healthy and developed/ready as possible(peaking). That’s priority one. Then consider matchups. Matchups can be more important than home field advantage sometimes. Sometimes earning home field advantage in certain matchups is what’s so key. Last season though….second seed turned perfectly into home field advantage throughout with our winning path. So many things worked out so nicely…ask the Rams about it.

So last season has seen I make you think twice about the difference in two or three seed.

But really haven’t had anything to play for …for so long already. That’s been one of this seasons bigger obstacles in fact. Good problem to have in most ways!

Looks like Cam Williams will be available as a BU T. Came off IR last week and is practicing. I just told you everything I know about him HAHA

Don’t think so. I think they just got him the only opportunity for him to be a part of practices. Then he’ll be shut back down. Doubting he’s game ready option. Of course from my couch nothing much I have to actually judge much on.

I'm not looking at rest this week... the last 2 games where guys don't have to even dress is my idea

2 seed or 3 seed Difference matters just how much to you?

Just curious, what happened in the OT game last night? Seemed like the team that took the ball 2nd then had the opportunity to make a decision to win the game. And wow, they won! I'm sure you can spin it to where you are correct and the rest of the world is wrong though. That seems to be your talent.

I give you that is one favorable scenario working towards taking it second.

I'm sure you can spin it to where you are correct and the rest of the world is wrong though. That seems to be your talent.

One scenario…is just that:one. But Seattle had to take the big gamble and risk …score a TD and go for two point conversion. Win or lose. That’s a whole lot…and toughest way to victory. But see now consider our game as well as that OT game. Seattles decision was completey based on what my point was with us. Hurts wasn’t playing to tie. It was score a TD or lose.

Ok capmaster, so Rams scored a TD. Then what did Seattle need to do to win in OT? Because the part I’m pointing out many seem to be not factoring in is: Seattle doesn’t go for two point conversion AFTER scoring a TD(mind you)? They had to. Because Seattle just kicks and ties? They lose.

Rams got the ball first. So which team was going to get that second opportunity to win the game? That’s right, Rams were more than likely going down and kicking the field goal.

So you see capmaster….i do actually think even with Seattle pulling off such a most difficult exception to win in OT….it actually proved my point more than other opposite. Because Seattle was forced to do exactly all that. Seattle getting the ball second in OT left them only one option to victory…the most difficult path. Rams just went about business with so much less pressure(OT NFL divisional game..which is also much).

Majority of scenarios I’d prefer being in the Rams position for sure. Seattle tied it up…they would have been given a second opportunity to win. OT is only ten minutes. This actually is a huge factor….because in our OT and theirs…only three minutes were left. Very easy to educated guess the second team getting the ball in OT wasn’t getting a second chance to win. Only the first team getting the ball in both games could have been given two chances to victory.

Or maybe you could try explaining things specifically and use the exact quote that you thought was not yours?

Why don't you show the quote and explain... is it that difficult? I'm curious do you not know how to do that? I've seen so many of these instances over the years where you refuse to just use a quote and you make it seem like it's a difficult thing to do? Why? Is that the problem you have?

So capmaster you got exactly your perfect scenario working out where second team possesing the ball in OT won. Yet I didn’t see it as making a good case for that approach even then. That team was forced to go above and beyond to do the hardest way to earn victory. Had to score a TD under that pressure…AND successfully convert two point conversion.

I directly pointed it out right when it happened. Acknowledge I’m not perfect making the best most concise point at times. But this shouldn’t have been any factor n this.
