Just wondering where he's gone this season. He looks like he's lost weight, maybe it's that and the different role he's asked to play since Suh came. But he's making no plays and very often looks easily handled in one-on-ones. And last season - I'm thinking of the Cardinals game at Wembley as an example - he was playing at an extremely high level. Curious.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
I've flipped from wanting a pass rusher in the first round next year. After recent weeks I'm thinking they should be looking CB. Peters is 'who knows' right now. Talib is nearing the end Hill & Shields - not good enough at this stage.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
35 points a game should be enough. This D really isn't very good. Peters is the obvious fall guy, but here's a thought - if Thomas is going to kill us by catching 12 for 211 - maybe double team him after a while? It was clear that Peters couldn't cope with him, yet Wade keeps Peters in man coverage with zero help...by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
22nd vs the run, 5th vs the pass. Add the fact that we'd like to keep Rodgers off the field, feed Gurley and Brown should be the gameplan.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
1985 Candlestick. Ron Brown, Gary Green's interception, but more than anything the Niners DBs colliding and the ball popping up to Ellard who just backs into the endzone. Probably my all-time favourite Rams game.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Yup. Zero outside pressure. No one able to turn the corner. They're missing Quinn way more than expected, I think. Wonder if they can bring anyone in before the trade deadline.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Just a thought, we could clearly do with some edge rush help, Wade had Ray in Denver so he knows the system, and he's probably out of there after this season anyway. If Rams win Sunday the Broncos' season will be in free-fall and they may figure a draft pick would help. Probably wouldn't take a high pick to get him.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
He had a perfectly valid sack ruled out for roughing, which it wasn't.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
This offense - despite its many strengths - does seem to struggle in the red zone. Imagine if they had a legit TE target...by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Non-existant tonight. None even targetted, I think. And was Everett on the field at all? Good win, given the lack of preseason work and the rust. Just think what this O could be - especially in the red zone - with quality tight end play.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Joe Curley tweets: Just to head off those “future cap jail” tweets, Rams were $58m under the cap for 2019 per @Jason_OTC. Don’t know next year’s AD cap number yet, but even after subtracting Donald’s $22.5m AAV from that figure, the Rams would have more cap room in 2019 than 20 NFL teams.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
There's a quote from a GM in the MMQB piece today saying the first round this year is picks 1-21. Everything past that point a player could be picked in the first or in the third, it's enteirely dependent on the teams' ratings/needs. If that's really true, you can see why the Rams bailed on pick 23. And also they could get easily get a late first round/second round player in the 3rd.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
They've met with the Oregon LT Crosby several times. Going by your board, I'd not be shocked if he's their target in the 3rd.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Imagine his knee going in week one. Suddenly all bets are off. And who knows if his play will stay at the same standard at his age, A tackle at 23, or asap afterwards, would be a very smart move.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Pretty amazing. I'd put very good money on Snead trading down from 23 now. Start recouping those picks.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
It's a LOT cheaper to get an ILB than it is to get an edge rusher.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
McVay tried to be coy but, in yesterday's press meet, he did say "Jared and Sammy will continue to grow togther"...by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Always enjoy these Alyo. Now we know the Rams are drafting at 23, who do you currently see as realistic targets?by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
NFL Gamepass in the UK. Unsure of the price for the playoffs.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Brockers has been fantastic this year. He probably should've been in.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
If you're going corner with our first pick, who would you target? I'm still hoping they can keep Tru somehow, but regardless I think corner's our main need. Re: Watkins. His lack of targets surprises me. I thought that would change with Woods out but it really hasn't. Feels like something's up there. Regardless, I hope we can keep him from testing the market.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Commentary Sunday said he's been fighting a back issue all season.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Higbee's targets seem to have disappeared and Everett's never really appeared in the first place. Watkins either seems to be limited in his targets by McVay or he can't get open. WR screen and deep post and that's largely it. Reynolds not up to it yet. Wihout Kupp and Gurley's contributions, Goff seems to have little to throw to. Compare that with the eagles yesterday where their receiveby Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Somehow need to come away from next offseason with: Donald, Tru, Watkins, Joyner re-signed. Then needs for draft/FA: CB, whether they re-sign Tru or not. Proper 3-4 NT OLB PLUS a center and an OT they can groom to replace Whitworth & Sullivan. Fingers crossed they believe in Blythe down the line.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Man, every OC the Rams have had since Tavon was drafted has said exactly the same thing...by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
Was at the game yesterday and, for me, Brockers was, if not the MVP, then very close. Playing the best football of his career under Wade. Seemed to be on every tackle of Peterson.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
In his rookie year he at least caught passes from the receiver position. Not exactly Wes Welker from the slot, but he caught some. He's now being paid the second highest wage on the team to run a couple of jet sweeps every game. Can he not run a few routes? Is he really incapable of that? Yikes.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
O-line needs to get way better. Everywhere. Run stuffing ILB. Probably two of them. Depth at corner.by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
'Tavon Austin snap count on offense: 7. Cooper (22), Reynolds (17), Carrier (13) had more. They're still figuring it out. He'll have chances.'by Glyndwr71 - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm excited about what he can potentially add to the McVay offense, but, and it's a big but... According to Over The Cap, his cap number for this season is $14,977,116 - second highest on the team. And for that he's fielding punts, taking three-four handoffs a game and, judging by yesterday, not being lined up as a receiver much at all. Can't cut him. He'd be $19,977,116 in dead money.
