Stafford at QB will be able to maximize Atwell’s potential.

Hitting him early when he first comes open underneath, hitting him deep in stride when open, etc…

Stafford is light years ahead of Perkins on points like those and I suspect that Atwell could be a nightmare when Stafford is pulling the trigger. Just like all of our other WR’s for that matter.

I agree Stafford will get the ball to Atwell a bit easier but Stafford won't be able to keep him healthy. Stafford can't "soften" the blows he will take and the turf can be unforgiving even on bigger stronger players.

He will still be taking hits and I think it will only be a matter of time before he is out or playing hurt. I don't want to feel that way but after watching him play it seems pretty clear to me.

#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
