    Kick some tires

    Do a web search for an Urban Dictionary and the meaning of 'Raw Dog' or 'raw dog.' Here's the 'safe' definition and probably why this banter is allowed by the moderators. https://www.merriam-webster.com/slang/rawdog Do the same search as a slang term...

    Undrafted Free Agents

    That's where most centers have a tire to kick. Around their center.

    PJJ is looking for the big bag with his upcoming contract. Here's his stats in 2025: https://www.pff.com/nfl/players/paris-johnson/129749...

    Kick some tires

    LOL. I'm surprised that you are the only one calling me out for mentioning Jonah Williams. He went from being a #11 pick to the Bengals in the 2019 draft to now being a discard among Card fans. He is a player who had his promising career waylaid by his numerous injuries---before he even took...

    Is it me or was the Ty Simpson pick….

    Unless the Rams know Stafford may not be around for the full season. Will he decide to retire over facing long-term injury to his back? He's got a HOF resume already. Jimmy G is reported to be thinking about retirement. Simpson would be the starter, not the backup and not the QBOTF.

    Is it me or was the Ty Simpson pick….

    Here’s the presser with HC Sean McVay and GM Snead that has everyone evaluating what was going on with McVay: On second look, I think McVay is pizzed because Snead is revealing too much of the internal thinking/plotting that went on behind closed doors of the Ram’s draft process. Also, note...

    Kick some tires

    Cards still need some talent at the RT position. Taylor Decker asked for his release from the Lions—he had a down year. Wonder if he is reading the future and looking for a payday from a needy team? Cam Robinson was on the radar . . . Jonah Williams took a beating with the Cards last year...

    CC to the Ravens

    True for the Hall of Fame bust. Name, position played, and head.https://cdnph.upi.com/pv/upi/cd15a59fbbce195621387c5f462f8c0c/NFL-HALL-OF-FAME-ENSHRINEMENT.jpg During the Induction speech, player will list everybody, every team, important to his lfe/career. (Warner's speech is on Youtube.)

    Why JG and DP were fired

    There's an interesting twist---that JG was not the one to bench KM. JG did put forth public suport for KM---until he didn't. He might have been forced into both. The plot thickens. LOL. Do you have any guess as to why JG and DP were removed from the employment roll but others like DC Rallis...

    CC to the Ravens

    Fan favorite and future HOF Calais Campbell is going back to the Ravens. I wanted him back here to put the finishing touches on his career in Cardinal Red. Believe he still showed plenty of value along the DL. Wonder if the Cards had any interest...

    Why JG and DP were fired

    The Infinite Jest is the need for a starting QB that will twist teams into bizarre contortions to get one. Case in point is the way Rogers is jerking the Steelers around as they await his decision. Steelers are a team with an amazing legacy of success and SB titles, yet they are bowing down to...

    Why JG and DP were fired

    So, you don't know. You think maybe it was because JG ruined his trade value by declaring JB would start even if KM was healthy? quod erat demonstrandum

    Why JG and DP were fired

    How do you know that? Are you in contact with the entire league and they provided that information to you?

    Why JG and DP were fired

    Any thoughts as to why JG and DP were fired (or not renewed) and DC Rallis is still on board? Was Rallis following JG's mandate on how to run the D OR was Rallis given leeway to make the decisions on D?? My impression---at least on game day with JG on the sidelines with his headset---was that...

    Why JG and DP were fired

    When that happened, I recall a debate as to what impact it would have. I'm not sure if JG's anger cost him the locker room---have you seen any player comment that came out against him for his public display of anger & aggression vs. DeMarc? I haven't. There were players gathering around DeMarc...

    Why JG and DP were fired

    They are equivalent. Especially when you are the one who has not been renewed.

    Why JG and DP were fired

    That's the puzzle that bumps the changes to the coaching staff beyond the 'Occam's Razor' rationale of accepting the 'simple' answer. The 'simple' answer would have been to fire the entire staff and/or not renew them all (and even MO if we want to get real). Why did DC Rallis get to stay? I...

    Why JG and DP were fired

    If a contract is not renewed---isn't that the same as being 'fired?.' In either case, he's out the door.

    Why JG and DP were fired

    Do you have a source for that comment---it would help make my point on why JG was fired.

    Defending the Defense

    Injuries to key D-players started early on in preseason camp and just continued into the season. Even before the first preseason game, the red flags were waving outside the MASH unit and continued across the season: https://burncitysports.com/2025/08/01/cardinals-injury-cautious-preseason/...

    Why JG and DP were fired

    Why JG and DP were fired---speculation as to why it happened. (1) MO/MB wanted to maintain KM’s potential trade value. When JG came out and said that JB would start even if KM were healthy, that sleight-of-hand to have KM presented with value went in the trash can. Teams took note of what the...

    Who are these guys???

    I never used the word ‘poach’ to describe what the Ram did prior to the draft to both recruit Simpson and to keep their interest in him secret. Not sure how you are using the word here or how you got the impression that I (or others) were implying that the Rams ‘poached’ Simpson. He was not an...

    Who are these guys???

    Why not? Our new HC just came from the Rams. The Rams know ML's appreciation for Simpson since he & the Rams FO had him as a target. Recent comments about the Rams/Simpson had him under the Rams radar since last year. Rams could have traded down from their #13 and got a needed WR and Simpson...

    Who are these guys???

    That's nice that you had a thought.

    Who are these guys???

    You wanted to know why I thought the Cards were going to have a 9+ win season. I gave you an answer---and you are complaining that I didn't answer your question??? Bet my answer was the first book you have read in a long, long time. Waiting to read your 'book' on why you believe we are at 4.5...
