    He was even worse in the Packers game than in the Panthers game, and he was pretty fucking horrible in the Panthers game. Shit coach.

    With the Rams moving back to LA ... the world just got a whole lot harder for the other 3 teams in the division.

    Phoenix has some money now, but LA will get a whole shit ton of cash ... and will attract good talent. And it will likely come at the expense of Arizona.

    I was shocked, shocked I tell you, to see how many times the LA Rams played in the NFC Championship game back in the day.

    Pretty sure there's a hard salary cap in the NFL, even in LA. As for attracting good talent, high state income tax ain't such a draw. Whether the Rams are in LA or St. Louis has no impact on the division.

    Who's their quarterback? Until that's solved, all the move does is make their opponents travel time shorter by two time zones.

    He's definitely better than Whisenhunt and Fisher (that's not saying a lot), but he's not a shit coach.

    The Reid comparison might be apt.

    Everyone wants to be in LA, it's what they want.

    Way too early to say Arians is Reid 2.0. I still think he's a damn good coach. If I'm choosing between the two I'll take Arians rather easily, and I don't hate Reid.

    Those last couple games definitely weren't hbe though.

    LA fucking sucks and half the roster will have FBA by the 2nd preseason game.

    St Louis is a dreary, raysiss, post-industrial skid mark on the Mississippi River; I'm sure the players are just fine with moving to LA, and the beaches, ass, and sun that that entails.

    There is. Which is why he is probably a pretty good coach. He set out to take down the Hawks and win the West and he did. He kicked their ass at QWEST. He's annoying and arrogant.

    But he kind of won this year

    If what happened to Arizona is winning, then I don't want to win.

    The Seahawks are hardly the Steelers. For most of their history and championship game loss would be a special season

    Actually I think the Seahawks/Cardinals season played out similar to the Steelers/Bengals season. The Bengals won the division sure, but everyone knew Pittsburgh would embarrass them in the playoffs and they did.

    The only difference with Arizona is that they drew Green Bay instead of Seattle. Seattle would have creamed them like Carolina did.

    no he didn't. He won the meaningless regular season championship and then lost in embarrassing fashion to the same team the seahawks lost respectably to. The only reason he made it to the NFCCG is because the packers fucking suck.
    I'm not a moral victories guy but push at best

    We're comparing losses and 2nd halves now?

    My point is the Arizona season is as good as all but 3 in Seattle's history. Saying I don't want that shit season is FS

    This is all true, but hypotheticals suck. 13-3 > 10-6. NFC Championship game > Divisional round. For all intensive purposes Arizona 2015 > Seattle 2015. Even if we know Seattle was the better team.

    Seattle is a better team than AZ when playing at their best, problem is that the only do that about 1/3 of the time in 2015. Seattle essentially lost in the wild card round to a team they trounced in the regular season. Consistency is part of the deal. When you score 0 points in the first half of 2 playoff games you really have no argument that you are better than anyone.

    I like to forget about salary caps. It's what I like to do. The NFL isn't the NBA where the player will take less Money to play in Mia or LA. In the NFL a player goes to the team offering the most upfront scratch. There is no second criteria.

    NBA players don't take less money to play in LA because the taxes suck. They will in FLA.

    my point is if seattle had gone into arizona in january no doubt they would have won.
    Both seasons ended the same way, I don't really care who lasted longer and won the meaningless regular season title.
