Now would be a great time to WhatsApp call a few Rams players to see how they’re doing. Going back to sleep on flight can be very difficult, better for them to sleep at the hotel on arrival

I think it fixes everything wrong with the current format:

1. The “team sprint” is a constructor focused event, only affecting constructor standings. Every team selects only one driver to race, so it’s a ten car race. Right off the bat this creates drama - will teams choose their best driver? Will they alternate? Which one gives them the best chance to win? It will be interesting, and crucially differentiate from the actual Grand Prix.

2. The race itself is a 15-20 laps sprint. Points for top 5 finishers only count for constructors standings. So it doesn’t affect the driver championship, and no accidental crownings. But huge stakes for mid and bottom teams to compete and score constructors

I mean it’s week 5! Save some of that for after you actually win something. I’m kind of glad this went down because we needed a reality check.

So after Seattle thrashed NY on Monday, I was thinking that the 4 opponents we beat were actually all pretty bad in hindsight. The Steelers and Giants look totally out of it with problems all over the place. The Cardinals are feisty but a lock for last in the division. Basically the Rams were the only borderline playoff team we beat.

Obviously great to be 4-0 regardless, but are we in for a rude awakening against the Cowboys - in terms of physicality, scheme, pressure? Will not surprise me if we suddenly start “slow” and spend the rest of the game playing catch-up. This is gonna be a really great test for us
