It’s Way early, I know, but I feel like sharing my vibes about this Ram team this season.
So here I go way out on this limb…
Rams O is gonna score some points this season. They will catch some teams unprepared early on, I think.
Stafford is healthy and looking super sharp plus he has weapons everywhere this year.
RB room will be a team strength this year and Akers will have a career year.
Rams OL will finish in upper half of league this year, maybe better, with an emphasis on physicality.
Rams OL will look like this come opening day:
Jackson
Avila
Shelton
Anchrum
Hav
Everybody else is competing for swing or backup positions.
Hopkins will likely be a pleasant surprise this year.
WR pecking order will be Kupp, Jefferson, Nacua/Atwell/Robinson (as a rotating 3rd WR corps indefinitely), Skow will be 6th and final WR on the 53.
Ernest Jones will have a breakout year and possibly Pro Bowl mentions.
CB starters will be Witherspoon, Durant, and Tomlinson and they will improve weekly and be a team strength by November. Gonna get lots of ints along the way.
Fuller and Yeast will be starters come opening day but that might well change as backups progress. IOW, Fuller may lose his starting status by mid season.
Ethan Evans will make the Pro Bowl as punter.
Rams will win 9 games, maybe more, and McVay will be selected as Coach of the Year.
Thoughts?
