darin3 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Rams' GM doesn't buy it... But stranger things have happened. Got his ring, going out on top. I don't think I buy it either. The NFC is going to be winnable yet again and there's no reason to think the Rams wouldn't be the favorite in the West and probably the NFC as a whole.

stevegrab Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 I heard this mentioned leading up to the game but missed the source etc. Seems very unlikely, he isn't old and washed up, but maybe he wants to go out on top and with his body in good shape. This guy thinks its about the money https://sports.yahoo.com/aaron-donalds-retirement-talk-feels-more-like-a-message-about-his-underpaid-contract-with-rams-071840350.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millworkguy Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 The sideline reporter said it during the lead off to the game, and when asked about it after the win, he commented something like , let me enjoy this will you. I hope he doesn't retire and they try for 2, but glad both he and Stafford got their rings (as much as I wanted to see the Bengals win it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonster Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 He said some funky things earlier in the year about his body not healing as quickly as he used to. But obviously still a monster. Maybe he can check in to the TB12 clinic and if the Rams can retain their talent he may sign up for round 2. I don't know what the Rams contract/cap situation is. I wouldn't be shocked if he called it quits. The man is a monster, likely trains like a monster and probably doesn't want to be less than dominant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is literally making this forum unreadable. Please just stop. Not to speak for everyone, but I'm guessing we all feel the same.

darin3 Posted June 7, 2022 Author Share Posted June 7, 2022 2 hours ago, LordOpie said: the problem is that LC finds this entertainin. Steve does not find this entertaining, but he is incapable of allowing himself to be misunderstood or misrepresented, is that "ego", "esteem" or something? Not sure how you'd define it, but he cares a lot about how people view him. So, LC won't stop because it's funny and Steve cannot allow it. He's unable. Excellent point.
