There is no doubt about it. I constantly read articles like this suggesting the same thing. Seems everybody knows this except Rams management and coaches.

27, winning cures all. Those guys are winning right now so everyone speaks highly of them. Go back a year and talk about what people think of Phil Rivers and it wasn't the same story.
Perhaps the article should have read that teams with QBs that are playing great. You can argue semantics all you want 27mtr, but the fact is that a great QB (playing great) is the single most important ingredient in a winning franchise. Defense is good, and a running game is wonderful, special teams, yada yada. After all, it is still a team sport, but like it or not a great QB defines your team more than any other position. And unfortunately the Rams haven't had that since Curt Warner was here.
I would really love to see the Rams take Bridgewater if he's available, or another high profile QB like Bortles, and then just trade Bradford for what we could get. I would be secretly (in case a trade didn't work out, since Bradford appears to be as fragile emotionally as physically) shopping Bradford for hopefully a 2nd rounder, or possibly a 1st round pick if there was anybody gullible enough (Jacksonville, Minnesota, Oakland, etc.) I sincerely don't believe we will attain championship level with Bradford, and will waste the talent we already have waiting on him to evolve from the fundamentally flawed QB he is now. And you're right, it could be a lot worse. We could have Christian Ponder, or Jake Locker, or Mark Sanchez etc. But keep in mind that if we had another mediocre QB, we'd be paying him mediocre money as well. Not the huge amount that Bradford is getting (and certainly not worth) that is curtailing us from investing that money into other areas of need. I was on the fence about Bradford for 2 years. I've now officially become a Bradford dissenter. Until he shows me definitively that he can stop making fundamental mistakes that should have been corrected by year two, and step up and make the team around him better like other QBs being paid like him, I will continue to deride him and his supporters.
no one is taking Bradford and his bloated contract sorry, not to mention he's still injured. If he was somewhere in the 10mil range I could see it happening.
You know actually I hope some one does trade for him. I hope NE goes out and gets him he sits the bench next year Mr. Brady shows him the ropes. Brady retires next year and Sam comes in and breaks all of his records including SB wins and appearances. I know it's never going to happen but be careful of what you wish for.
Really guys I'm sick of the "lets cut/trade Bradford" talk. Not saying you can't express your opinion but just come to realization that IT'S NOT EVER GOING TO HAPPEN. I'll agree if he doesn't have a good to great year next season then yes the Rams FO will have to think of moving on. But lets just keep it at that for the moment.
I would also say 5 of those teams have Elite QB'S. 3 going to the Hall of fame !! they don't grow on trees. the niners and Hawks have elite punishing Defenses.
Don't go there Zeke. Calling somebody a sheep is similar to calling somebody a name. Yea SJ76 won't be offended but if you receive a similar response to one of your posts where he calls something you assert as retarded will you not be offended? You might not be but others may be and then were down that road. Get your head out of your ass for a second and think before you post. And I am not defending SJ76 because I like him or whatever of that shit. I have already told him the same. It may seem harmless but this is the kind of thing that starts another round and I am nipping things in the bud before we go there. If you want to post this, go to the penalty box with it. Capeeche?
Yep Zeke has it right.
