The thing with those 2 is a matter of leverage. You could not really franchise tag either player because of how the tag worked. You can easily tag Flowers. If anything the tag for WRs is a massive discount right now compared to what he will get.

Half the penalties in football are because someone might get hurt doing it. Pretty much every RTP falls under that category as do most of the rules about tackling. Every sport has a penalty for dangerous plays and for soccer getting the cleats at the back of the leg is one of the more dangerous...

Your example highlights that analogy. If you are Messi (who should have gotten a red) or Ronaldo (who got special treatment) or a country that FIFA wants happy then you have one set of rules but if you are not in that camp you have another aka you can body slam Lamar but if you brush Mahomes its...

Yes but there have been a LOT of bs red cards over the past 60 years (like a LOT). If none of those were corrected then it doesnt feel like the right decision was made. It feels more like watching them throw a flag for RTP on Mahomes for brushing against him when we watch them powerbomb Lamar...

I only think its stupid because its the first time this has been done in over 900 world cup games and over 60 years. This was not the worst world cup red card in over 60 years.

Or all of the options are terrible and so they trot out Bateman by default because he is at least a WR3 level player and none of the others have even shown that yet. I would rather one of the younger guys beat Bateman for WR3 then just accept a gaping hole at WR2 because "maybe one of the young...

They are a super team. I would stack their roster against every super team in the salary cap era. +350 means you think they are about a 20-25% chance to miss the playoffs in order for that bet to be even odds. Last year there were 2 teams in the NFC that were clearly the top 2 in the Rams...

I mean I dont really feel watching the Ravens spend 3 firsts to find the next Flowers again and have the other 2 being a number 2 with injury concerns (not his fault) and an overhyped number 3.

I mean logically if Stafford plays 5 games the Rams are still 75% to make the playoffs because the rest of the roster is so overwhelming. That bet needs to pay out at +800 for it to even be a bet worth considering so at +350 it is terrible odds. To say the Rams are 90% to make the playoffs is...

Its terrible value even with normal injury luck. 2/3 of QBs made 10 starts last season. The ones who tend to miss time played behind far worse OLines than the Rams have (who most likely have a top 5 OLine). If Stafford is in that 2/3 camp you lose and lets pretend that its equally likely that...

The entire reason you debate over a backup QB for a contender is that scenario I am listing. The only reason they matter is if your QB misses a month (possible as only about 1/3 of QBs play all 17 games/16 games and rest last) and you need to stay above water. They dont matter in terms of...

It doesn’t matter. Every single team you listed is irrelevant and not a playoff team with their backup. It doesn’t change the fact that every contender is irrelevant if their starting QB goes down. The only interesting conversation is which team is most likely to go 2-2 if their QB has to miss...

What contender is not a QB injury away from being irrelevant? At least the Rams have a freshly drafted backup plan which is more than every other contender can say.

If the first is in the mid 20s I will be shocked. I don’t know how the Rams are not overwhelming Super Bowl favorites right now.

I mean the fact that the few times they do pick they hit homeruns would almost suggest they should covet them more than other teams but it does sort of work for them. Also considering Stafford only has a couple years left they should go all in now.
