How could anyone ever think it was?
His perceived loss of speed early in the season along with his fairly expensive contract had people saying he might be a cap cut along with DMac.

Both - there were people on here who complained mightily about drafting a RB, his knee issues, need for defense etcI don’t recall the pick being panned. Do you mean by this forum or the idiots on the radio?
There were people here who panned it, but it was mostly the same people who pan every pick. Plus Bill Simmons for some reason, who--it can't be stated enough--is an insightful basketball guy who knows nothing at all about football.I don’t recall the pick being panned.

Never a chance of that.His perceived loss of speed early in the season along with his fairly expensive contract had people saying he might be a cap cut along with DMac.
Belichick’s disciple, may have taught the master something. Maybe.I think part of the credit has to go to Matt Patricia who showed with his Lions how the Quarters defense could be effective against the Rams.
I keep hearing about how it was all Flores' doing. Not much credit going to guys like Gilmore, Hightower and Van Noy.
How Flores was a defensive guru with this team by playing more man and going away from bed don't break, but than I remember how his defense couldn't stop KC's offense.
Or is it on Goff and Gurley's lackluster performance? Or that Goff might've had the worst statistical performance for QB in the Super Bowl,
Did you at least insist on an escape clause?I have a theory...sometime wayyy back in June of 2001 when Ray Borque returned to Boston for a rally on the steps of Faneuil Hall with the Stanley Cup he won with the Avs...some Boston fan told to himself, "This is our only championship since 1986....unacceptable!"...then that fan decided to sell his soul to Satan in exchange for 12 championships and counting......
The Rams play dirty on D. Every tackle is a head tackle designed not only to intimidate the offensive players, but to hurt them. They did not deserve to win that game, and I can sympathize just a little more with New Orleans about the loss the previous week. Glad our guys were able to overcome their aggressive, borderline playing style.
