A few observations upon further review...
This Ram O is something else. Had Ficken not missed the FG, and Goff and Gurley not turned the ball over deep in Charger territory, we would have hung a minimum of 44 points on the Chargers, and maybe as many as 52 if they got the 2 TD’s. Think about that...
I would hate to be the 4th WR trying to crack this starting lineup.
Our OL has been simply magnificent. And we all know that it all starts there.
Watching how rare it is to see a failed 3rd down conversion, 4th down attempts make more and more sense to me if on the opponents side of their 40 yard line.
Could it be that our TE’s are becoming a part of our O? Lol.
Should we consider giving Goff the nickname of “Joe Cool”? This kid is impressing the hell outta me.
Edge is our Achilles heel on D, no doubt about it. Ebu ain’t exactly lighting it up and the other side looks like a bunch of JAGs. Wade is rotating everyone but the water boy on the other side looking for a spark but it just hasn’t happened yet. Hoping for something from Obo, but who knows when or if there? I fear that it won’t be fixed until next offseason via FA or the draft. Will an edge player be BPA at #32? (See what I did there?) Draft guru input most welcome about this position.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if they had found a Blythe, Shields, or JJ steal at edge via FA, trade, or draft? Wishful thinking, I know, but it seems like the only non success by this regime lately.
Okay, I’m just gonna ask it. Is Barron toast? He’s now missed 4 games, y’all. Are they hiding something?
Well, the injury bug has returned in full force.
Barron
GZ
Cooper
JoJo
Talib
Peters
Easley
Are you KIDDING me? And with 13 games still left in the regular season? All on D or ST, mind you. C’mon...
Guess the O is gonna have to step it up to 40+ points per, lol.
D played an excellent game in the first half, but they were giving up too many chunks both passing and rushing in the second. That’s gotta be fixed.
Hav is looking like an excellent extension, huh?
The Shields signing is looking like a stroke of genius.
Barring devastating injuries to key players, I see no reason why these Rams should not go deeply into the playoffs. And emphasis is on DEEPLY.
Bring on the Vikings. We owe those mofos going back over 40 years.
