One teams trash is another teams treasure. Vons been a JAG since 2015 playoffs

Like a rental trade in baseball.

Win the World Series and the return is meaningless.

5th would have been the best they could have gotten.

I hate to see Von go. But it’s a relief to me that we did it, for the reason you just mentioned. I hope a few others follow tomorrow. Maybe we only win six games, instead of seven or eight. :rolleyes:

I think calling Shurmur’s offense and game planning could fairly be called pedestrian at this point.

Just seems defenses have been able to really key in on what he’s trying to run. Denver has one TD on an opening drive in the last 26 games or so. That’s just disappointing no matter who you are as an OC. They don’t seem to play with a sense of urgency or creativity in their play calling.

Defense has a number of objectively quality pieces and the investment in personnel has been made by the front office but injuries have played their part to make that side of the ball a more significant challenge than it might have been.

Fangio has to see the writing on the wall. Either he’s getting neutered and firing someone this off-season as a sign he’s turning the ship. Shurmur makes a fitting sacrifice but I suspect he’ll be canned and the search will be on for the offensive minded HC to take over and be part of the conversation on where the organization goes for the next qb.

But that’s just my take. Certainly, reasonable people can disagree.

Just reset the entire staff... Fangio is a good dude, but he's not a HC. Shurmur is just terrible, the game passed him by a decade and a half ago.

I'll take Fangio as our new DC, please fire him. :D

Not much? Seems like quite a bit for what may be a half-season rental. He'll be 33 before the start of next league year so will the Rams want to re-sign him beyond offering a 1-year deal?

Late-in-the-round picks or not, they are still top 100 picks, and they give you some solid players. At some point, they need to stop trading all of their resources and start drafting players or they'll have a massive decline in the near future.

Fangio may be in that Monty Kiffin/Wade Phillips mold. Good DCs that can’t make the jump to an effective HC.

Is there a tie between Reid and Fangio?

Yes. Reid raped the guy the last four times they met.

Oooooof. Mule Tool Fool got hoodwinked

Say, what happened to all those picks?

I see this thread bumped and assume he's been arrested.

We all know we would have wasted them anyway, so what difference does it make?

I suppose we wouldn’t have the 60 million dead money hit, but we probably would have wasted the money too, so NBD.
