QuoteJimYoungblood53 Quotezn QuoteJimYoungblood53 So, is that thinking too much or thinking wrongly. In year 3 a disguised coverage shouldn't fool him, should it? Why not? Why do you think that Brady just had his first post-season game without a TD since, when? Because Wade fooled him a lot with disguised coverages.

QuoteHow long will Jared Goff be the Rams’ quarterback? Well the average for a guy of Goff's talent level is about 12-15 years at least. Rivers and Roethlisberger are still playing after being drafted in 2004. Brees was drafted in 2001. Rodgers in 2005. Flacco and Ryan in 2008. So that's a range from 18 to 11 years .

QuoteRamBill .........is knowing just how difficult it is to just make it to a Super Bowl....so many things have to go right for you....minimal injuries, the ball bouncing your way, calls going your way.

QuoteRDU He seemed to be ok with a couple of those bursts. Yeah and then if it flares up that goes away. Gurley said it himself a few weeks back. “I could’ve played,” said Gurley, who has scored a league-best 21 touchdowns. “But who knows how long I would’ve been able to play.” That is, as we've known all along, he can look good early and then it flares up. ....by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteClassicalwit I remember Gurley getting tackled late in that first game and, if I remember correctly, he landed kind of awkwardly on one leg. It concerned me at the time but he seemed fine. Looking back, I wonder if that was when he sustained an injury. It's not an injury in the classic sense. Nothing is broken or torn. He says it started in the Oakland game and no one play or action diby zn - RamsFootballFans.com

QuoteMamaRAMa Rams lied about RB Todd Gurley’s injury. And the media did nothing to push back against it. For two weeks, the Rams and Gurley himself insisted he was fine. He wasn’t.

QuoteRamgator Bothered him most of the season. You got that as a rumor, presumably indirectly from a player. Players are not likely to know more about this than the medical people. And of course since the Rams publically said it was a knee, they would be openly lying on injury reports if it wasn't.

Left knee initially bothered Rams’ Todd Gurley after season opener Lindsey Thiry Dec 27, 2018 THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay said Thursday that Todd Gurley’s left knee hasn’t just bothered the star running back recently.

Quotedzrams QuoteJamesJM not discounting their running game at ALL... but they won because of Edelman and the best D coverage I think I've ever seen in a football game. 13 points is nothing to brag about. I don't believe that's why they won ...at all. Remember we're talking about great coaches who outcoached our Rams.

Quotekw13 could he have a medical condition? or a bad back or a fractured rib or something? because he says his knee is fine so maybe it is something else? he seems to be able to play, just not take the load.

QuoteJamesJM won't argue it. so explain CJ's absence? Not trying to be contrary... I promise, I just don't understand. He's not 100%. That just means he can be effective sometimes but not others. It's a "play it by ear" thing. There's pain, and inflammation, but no structural damage (the MRI confirmed that). Sometimes he can play with it, other times less so.by zn - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotewaterfield but i wish the Rams would simply confirm that so that all the speculation (i,e, he's a mental case) would go away. And of course that is what Dylan Hernandez's article in the L.A.Times said. But naturally everyone put the writer down for not knowing anything and blah blah blah.

QuoteLos Angeles Lenny What is up with Gurley, is he hurt or did he lose confidence or is he a mental patient. It seems pretty clear. He's not 100% and the knee goes in and out of being a problem that prevents him from taking the field. Not being 100%, though, does not mean he qualifies as injured.

He has sure hands and rarely gets tagged with a "drop"...but on contested plays where he has the ball in his hands......he can get stripped. He won't. Never has.
