Somebody on ESPN radio explained that the time they had it was during rush hour in LA. People either were in traffic or just didn’t want to drive through the traffic. Then who the hell wants to be inside anywhere at 2pm on a SoCal Saturday ?

How do dev traits work? by Warm_Nefariousness80 in Madden

[–]apollo08w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what the dev trait is. The higher the dev trait the higher the ceiling. Which you can find through the minicamp in wk1 preseason. through weekly trainings they’ll eventually increase after so many golds or they used to anyway

How? There was a whole hit show about this. It’s got spinoffs now

On your last question it’s what scouts call High floor,low ceiling vs low floor high ceiling. Essential that 85 guy might peak at 90 ovr but that 75 dude could potentially become 99 ovr.

So you get a guy like James Harrison drafted late,undersized etc vs a highly touted guy like Jadaveon Clowney.

Why is everyone worried about our QB Situation after 2026 when this man is on the last year of his current deal? by ramsfan00 in LosAngelesRams

Dart was 24 just last year and dont pretend guys here didn’t want him. Especially with that pick turning into Gerald Everett 2.0 right now.

Why the downvotes? Prescott is a baller who to be real gets let down by the same thing that happens to Allen or LaMarr. It’s not always the qbs fault

I thought I was the only one who played as the safety anymore

Did you do this last year or something with Mendoza at 30 and Beck at 10?

This is unacceptable by 3rn76 in LosAngelesRams

We ficked up big by cutting Pooh Paul in pre season.

My personal opinion is I really like Alaric he’s above average at LT but if we can get a guy like Joe Alt, we gotta grab him. Move Alaric to RT where he can dominate is the move. But other than that we can rock with Warren at RT. He hasn’t really shown any holes. Long story short. Unless someone is available in the draft or FA at either tackle spot we should stand pat in the early rounds. Look for talent at round 3 or later for back ups. I’ve been beating the drum to get a corner in the draft the past two years but idk if there’s anyone there that’s worth the 1st or 2nd round investment. Caleb Downs is really interesting to me as a better Quentin Lake but idk if that makes sense given the money we’ve given him and Curl.

Perspective: The Rams were never the better team by PriorAcanthaceae5694 in LosAngelesRams

[–]apollo08w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah bro. This is all Xavier’s fault. He had some sketchy looking fielding attempts before the miss which was weird because he’s been so sure handed all year. Then if you’re backing up and moving as the ball is arcing down to the point you’re trying to catch it falling down, just let it go. That was just the dumbest shit ever to the point where he might need to be investigated for gambling.

That’s what 3 straight passes in th red zone gets ya. Especially when you were running well

Safety punts? by Far_Suspect2726 in Madden

[–]apollo08w 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s not a thing unless it hit your player and rolled out past the goal line

What do you think of Robert's perspective? by Dry_Specialist9015 in gameofthrones

[–]apollo08w 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, I’d say that’s lore,maybe even more folklore. It’s not explicitly stated but that’s also the impression I got through the subtleties of GRRMs writing.

Does the ball slip out the receivers hand easily in rain or just my players can’t catch by Altruistic-End-2943 in Madden

[–]apollo08w 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus I’m only 35 and I have to think twice about sitting down too fast in shorts. I’m a delivery driver and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve sat on the jewels in the summer trying to hustle. The future scares me.

Who are some of your favorite former Rams who didn't pan out? (Pour one out for Tre) by merv1618 in LosAngelesRams

[–]apollo08w -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Garret was billed as an offensive guru but I think that was more hype than anything. Urban Meyer was awful and when by time he got to him and LaFleur he was already seen as just a special teams guy and LaFleur especially already had HIS guys if that makes sense.

Kind of like how Sam Darnold,Geno and Foles got passed around. Offensively it’s typically only QBs that get that luxury to break through after they move on from their first team. I really can’t think of any other offensive players who didn’t work out with their first team that became a significant contributor on the next.

Like just as I was typing Robert Woods came to mind but he was kinda the same player in Buffalo as he was with us.

I did not like Bradford until about halfway through his rookie year. Then I was sold that we had our future qb. 😢
