I'm honestly surprised the bottom didn't fall out before they won it all. There are good lessons to take away from their model, but they also got extremely lucky

Follow the Rams model and obtain OBJ.

I care about not winning a SB the last 27 years!!!!
Don't all fans?
And, nothing is guaranteed this season or next.
C'mon man!
You have said that they will never win with Jerry as the owner. I disagree, they have a shot this year and next. You would also care if the Cowboys were as bad as the Rams are now.

Hard to see them winning with Jerry based on the last 27 years, but it's possible.
Not sure how the Rams fit into this discussion?
No one likes to stink.

Eagles Seattle and Chiefs absolutely fleeced teams that tried to copy the Rams model. Hate that they were able to squeak out an SB before they fell apart just one year latter.

Oh man....I. just realizing a horrible possibility:

Philadelphia Eagles end up with #1 overall pick, and the LAST pick in the first round.

I can't handle that possibility.

Yeah I'm shocked they won the ring before it bottomed out. No depth, traded away all first rounders....

Too many individual player incentives for teams to actually tank. In fact, too many players.

I can see a team in eh NBA tank, they have a total of 12 players, 5 starters. In the NFL, it's 22 starters, 56 total players?

Rams ain't got a 1st pick for approximately 5 years. Hahaha
The price of selling out for the ring, at least they got a ring last year.
Take a look at the Broncos and how they sold out big time for Wilson and get nothing in return... lol
The Donks thought they could pull off another Peyton Manning type move, but this time they walk away like chumps shaking their heads on that deal.
Pete dealt off Wilson at the perfect time.

they got super lucky…..they almost lost to Tampa…I don’t think they would’ve beaten Buffalo or KC had that been the SB matchup for them. I really thought they were only the 3rd or 4th best team last year but that’s how it goes, just need a hot and/or lucky streak at the end

Actually yeah you’re right. It’s not like they were even the best team last year.

And funnily enough, one of their big time trades almost lost them the game, but they were lucky that they drafted an all time great player in Aaron Donald.

Ramsey got torched by Chase, and if not for Donald, Burrow would have probably had a TD on the 4th down call.

The Rams got their SB, but now the bill has to be paid. With cap and fewer draft picks, it could be bad for them the next couple of years as well.

only if they win big , get in playoffs and do good. Really at least get to champ game or SB.

i don’t think so. they didn’t really mortgage their future (aside from losing a first for tampering lol) they just accelerated their rebuild.
