Maybe time to cut Wolford some slack.
VeteranRamFan gave us this report on Wolford after attending most (all?) of training camp [
ramsrule.com] :
"QB: Stafford, Wolford, then anybody else. Wolford has had some valuable experience this camp running the #1 offense. His arm strength has improved witnessed by two or three deep balls to Atwell. Goes through his progression well. Oh, he’s had his bad moments but overall, marked improvement from last season."There have been similar reports from other Rams fans who attended camp. It's been a long time since I've actually seen Wolford so I hang on every word these fellow Rams fans say. (Just wondering: maybe you've seen him in camp, too?)
No "cutting of slack" from me AlbaNY. Camp reports mean very little to me. Without real hitting, tackling and players only going half speed I am not sure how much anyone can really judge a player.
IMO, and this goes for Tutu as well as the Wolf, it's easy to look good at "practice", now show us you can do it at Full speed with live tackling and other players trying to take your head off!
How many of The Wolf's "great camp throws" were completed because the D wasn't really pressuring him?
How many of Tutu's catches would have happened if he would have been "jammed" at the line like a real game when other players are going full speed and are getting paid to stop him?
Practice is a low measuring stick when trying to judge if a player can really play in the NFL (or any league) at full speed. It just is. The last time we saw both Tutu and The Wolf in REAL games, they both looked "less than impressive" to put it nicely.
Practice??? We talkin about Practice?!?!?!
#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
