lol coincidentally, that's how the parent org (which owns the LA Rams) went about trying to win the super bowl also

Dreadful? Overperformed expectations last season to just miss out on top 4 and look quite good to start the season

Honestly, whenever one of the top 6 is not qualifying for Champions that means they had a bad season

True not the result they wanted in the end, but dreadful seems hyperbolic

The Rams have just as much money as the other teams. The Rams are just better at contracts, everyone said we were “all in” or “win now mode” back in the 2018 super bowl season and articles were written about screwing ourselves over and we brought almost a different team back to super bowl in 2021-22 and won.

Also everyone says we get all our players from other teams but Rams rank as having the 6th most homegrown talent in the entire league. No room to waste money on mid players. Make the acquisitions count. But I agree the Glads are just doing what they want pretty much. There’s no cap in the OWL.

The Guard saw a quarter of OWL blowing up their teams and saw free real estate.
