Turf Show Times on Ty Simpson
From the article
Ty Simpson delivers a TD strike to Brennan Presley. Few were willing to acknowledge the possibility that Matthew Stafford would decline late into his 30's. Simpson would have fared better on the QB sneak than Stafford. It may be worth activating him on gamedays and preparing a red zone package in order to take advantage of his mobility.
STACKED’s take
Simpson's mobility and red zone package potential offer value if Stafford's decline accelerates.
Simpson, the Rams' rookie first-round QB pick, delivered a TD strike to Brennan Presley and is positioned as a potential contingency if Stafford declines faster than anticipated. The source argues Simpson may have fared better on the QB sneak than Stafford and suggests it may be worth activating him on gamedays and preparing a red zone package to take advantage of his mobility. The Rams saw Justin Fields score his first career touchdown in 2021 in a similar red zone package role, establishing precedent. Simpson's selection was primarily about 2027 and beyond, but the team may need him sooner if Stafford hits the performance cliff. Any experience Simpson gains this year will pay dividends moving forward, and the Rams' draft strategy suggests they were preparing not just for Stafford's eventual retirement but for the possibility that the quarterback cliff came unexpectedly.
