    Robert Woods was an All-American sprinter in high school.

    That's high school. 4.5 guys are crazy fast compared to high school competition but they don't take the top off NFL defenses. Marvin Jones is probably the fastest of the Lions and Rams starting receivers, and he's still more than a tenth of a second slower than a Brandin Cooks.

    Jones/Golladay being faster and more suited to running downfield routes the hashes Woods/Kupp/Jefferson, it seems the Rams receivers are better suited to Goff and the Lions receivers are better suited to Stafford. Based on the QBs, I could see LA making yet another splash move to bring in a big/fast #1 type WR for Stafford, reducing the roles of the WRs they already have, and Detroit opting more for a cheap limited-use speedster to be mostly a decoy. However cap-wise LA may have to settle for a decoy type as well.

    I think Stafford is going to the team with the better def, I’m not sosure thy have the better players on offense if Golladay does indeed stay.  

    I agree the Lions have the better offensive supporting cast. It's relatively close though. Whereas he's going from arguably the worst defense to the best defense.

    So simply based on ff, I think they’ll end up avg about the same points per game , I’ll probably have a better shot for Goff, because I draft qbs very late, and wait for a good one to come around. 

    Yeah fantasy wise this trade is likely better for Goff than Stafford, assuming Goff has a clear hold on the Lions starting job come FF draft time.

    All they need to worry about is making a great Dynasty mode because that’s what the majority of fans love about the game. 

    Back in the day (one of the last versions of the game), we had a small online dynasty league, 6 teams I think. We all picked CUSA teams and played a few seasons. Each head to head game had a playoff feel as compared to the usually-easier games vs the CPU. Was pretty competitive and a blast.

    You might want to just watch some of her videos and read her posts (although some have been deleted). She should have never been elected. The people in Georgia must be proud.

    I guess that's too hard for some people. Just like Trump, it doesn't take the media to understand how crazy they are, just listen to the crazy shit they say in their own words.

    Not sure about the phone, but on the iPad if you refresh the page, you’ll usually get a clear editor link in the reply box. 

    Try actually replying though. 

    1. Hit Quote (quote appears in the reply box)

    2. Refresh the page (quote disappears from the reply box... or so it seems)

    3. Put your cursor in the reply box (quote reappears! wtf mike)

    Same result on Android/Chrome, PC/Chrome, and PC/Edge.

    P.S. Take it to the fftodayforums on your iPad thread!

    I assume your point with posting those tweets is that Dems have the Senate now. Only 41 dissenting senators are required to prevent a vote via filibuster, so Democrats now having 50% of the seats + the tiebreaker doesn't help get it done if Republicans still don't want it.

    If you can get a number 2 and his contract moved you do it for sure. 45 million over 2 years is about mid range for what starting qbs are paid right now so you might wanna keep him. Goff and Stafford are not far away from being the same player at the same pay. I think the lions should trade their number one this year for a 1st and a 3rd in 2022 or 23 and flip goff for a 2nd if they can. If not ride him out and stack draft picks by tanking and selling off any player that has value. Total rebuild . 

    I agree that they should flip Goff if they can.

    To the point of your first couple of sentences, yes Goff at his moderate starting QB salary gives them a few wins over a backup-level replacement this year and next. Is that the right thing for the team though? Considering the shape of Detroit's defense, it seems like their short-term upside in terms of wins is what the Raiders were this year, i.e. win 8 games with an above-average balanced offense, and end up with a mid-1st round pick. The 1st rounders they'll get from LA will likely be very low in the round, so if they want real draft capital they'd be better off downgrading further at QB and finishing in the bottom 10 of the league this year.

    I read the thread title and thought you wanted me to call you up and read you threads over the phone instead of taking the time to read them yourself.  I charge $50 per hour for that.  I'll subcontract the work out and you will get a call from a call center in India where a man with a thick accent will read you rusty phrases like  "Clownzo Lickspittle"

    I do not want civil war propaganda to poison my brain by hearing it aloud.

    Sweet, the [b][i][/b][/i] trick still works!

    So I haven't been around in years until recently, not used to this new forum software. How the f*** can you delete a quote box when editing a post that you're typing on your phone? I was in a thread that I wanted to reply to, accidentally quoted something, couldn't get rid of the quote. Even if I backed out and re-opened the thread that quote was still in the reply box. Had to go use a different device to type my reply. S***'s ridiculous!

    All I care about is how does this affect Cooper Kupp in dynasty!

    Kupp seemed like a perfect fit with Goff at first, and had his best year in 2019 when the Rams OL was decent but no longer great, Gurley was hobbled, and Cooks was opening up the defense vertically. Notably Kupp was injured during both the 2018 and 2020 playoff runs, which I think hurt Goff's play in big games a lot, and hence Goff's reputation as well. (If the Lions give him a chance I think Goff will do well with Golladay/Jones/Hockenson/Swift, even though those receivers are a bit more vertically oriented than what he is used to working with.) With Kupp, Jefferson, and Woods all being very similar receivers, and Reynolds being a UFA, I wouldn't be surprised to see the Rams bring in more of a vertical threat to take advantage of Stafford's deep ball. Considering the Rams' dominance defensively, Akers' emerging as a star in the run game, and not Kupp not being a great fit for Stafford, I fear Kupp is going to be under-used in the near future. And if so, with his salary, I think we could see the Rams moving on from his contract before the 2023 season, maybe even before 2022.
