Stafford did all he could on that last Philly drive. So its insane to say he couldn't get it done. His rookie center blew blocks on back to back plays that killed those plays. So to specifically call out Stafford is just dumb.
Probably its more like if he stays healthy he wants to keep playing. However, at his age any significant injury likely makes him hang it up. Thus, that's why its year to year.
You could ride Love like a ten cent pony.I'm thinkin a guy like LOVE would help these Red Zone season-enders...
I completely agree, with your it's a 'Team Game' point ... and I do not think Stafford has been perfect. However, in all ten post-season games has has played in as a Ram, I think he has been exceptional.
I don't disagree but for some reason the offense can't get it done in the red zone in the last couple of minutes in each playoff loss.
.
3 great weapons at WR could help that without having to trade up. Tyson/Lemon/Cooper, Can't cover them all.
And, I do not disagree with the above statement. Hell, it's Factually Accurate.
However, I think about those three playoff losses ... More than any normal person would or should!
In Detroit (2023), I think there was contact and defensive interference on that third-down pass to Nacua.
The Rams punted on 4th-and-long and backed-up the Lions to their 13-yard-line but the Defense failed.
In Philadelphia (2024), Limmer and Dotson had a huge Brain Fart on a play that was an easy 1st down and maybe a touchdown. Once again, the Defense failed that day.
In Seattle (2025), the Best Defense in the NFL stopped the Best Offense in the NFL at the most crucial time.
However, the Rams' Defense subsequently failed to get a stop.
All, I am saying is that I could not have asked much more from Stafford and the Entire Rams' Offense in those three games (except ... maybe ... for Limmer and Dotson to ... at least ... TRY to block Jalen Carter). Whereas, the Defense failed in each of those games.
I dunno where this convo started, but I've been thinking about how great the rams might be if they full on invest in the defense. Another corner with inside/outside flexibility like Mcduffie or a legit inside linebacker to go next to Landman. Maybe even both. Like the 2020 Defense, but with better overall offense to go with it. Imagine a Mcvay offense you can't stop with a Defense you can't score on.
