His salary is already priced in for this season and the jet sweep fakes do get the D to adjust a bit which open up lanes both the running and passing games. That said, if a trade frees up cap space it could be used to resign other players. Tavon's base salary is 3.5 million so a trade next week would save about 2.7 million. He also has a roster bonus of around 11.5 million. I am not sure if thatby The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
Their model had the rams in 29th in their Elo ratings prior to the season and predicted to win 6.0 games (their model is based on 100000 simulations so can get fractions of wins). At that time the rams were ahead of Cleveland, SF, and Chicago. After week 3 (minus Monday night), the rams are up to 23rd in Elo and are predicted to win 7.1 games. Keep in mind that the low rating is partially based oby The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
Clearly things will get harder facing Seattle (twice), Houston, Jacksonville, and Arizona (twice) later on, but I think everyone would have been thrilled with 3300 yards, 24 tds and 12 picks.

Did you mean Kupp (Coop could be Cooper) and Everett?by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
I think there was a deep pass attempt to him late in the game. Not sure if it was just a throw away though as it was significantly over his head. Perhaps the issue may have been the route run or the fact that Tavon and Goff have not had a lot of opportunities to get on the same page.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com

He seemed to flash every time I went to practice this summer.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
He needs to get more arc on that throw. I went to three practices and at least twice in notes I have pass to Higbee too flat. So this seems to be a repetative problem.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
The reason he is so wide open is that Kupp was catching everything in the first half of that game. On that play Kupp and Everett are running up the middle, Kupp curls back and Everett keeps going. As Kupp already had a TD and 3 or 4 other catches by that point in the game, both the LB and CB move to cover him and leave Everett uncovered down the seam. If the throw goes his way, it is at least firby The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
I am thinking 8th round (my brother is also a rams fan and in my league). 2 Wrs, 2 RBs, TE, maybe QB, RB/TE/WR and then Kupp onto my bench.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
(On if any players are helping him become more comfortable learning the offense) “Yeah, (WR) ‘Coop’ (Kupp) does a great job. If I don’t know anything, I definitely look to my right and he’ll signal something out to me. He’s definitely been helping me.” I know that for every WR this is year 1 in the offense, but I am impressed with the fact that it is a rookie that Watkins is turning to as opby The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
I was a big fan of L'lorens in the few times I went to camp. He played against the 3s and then 2s, but always seemed to make things happen. He looked good in game 1 in the 4th but I am not sure if he even got on the field in game 2.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
Already have DB Michael Jordan and now add OLB Willie Mays! We should be looking for a edge rusher named Wayne Gretsky.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
Last year Keenum finished the 28th out of 40 QBs in yard/game at 220. Goff was 39th at 156. An average of 250 would be at 17th-18th (middle of the pack for starters). I have to assume that this year Goff can do better than Keenum did last year. So if we pencil Goff in for: a) 225 yards a game average (5 more per game than Keenum averaged and 80 yards more over the course of a full season) and b)by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
the raiders feared Kupp. Now not enough to put their #1 CB on him or rotate a safety his way, but both defenders went to pick him up based on how much of an impact he had prior to that play.by The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
Kupp's TD had no one around him. If you look at the pass to Watkins at the endzone, Everett and Kupp go over the middle Kupp curls back, and Everett goes up the seam. The both the corner and a LB go towards Kupp and Watkins runs free, a lofted ball would be at a minimum a goal to go situation, if not a TD.

The rams' first two drives led to a TD. The colts' first two drives lasted a total of 6 plays (two three and outs for 13 yards). That was their total first quarter production. They had 96 yards of offense in the 2nd quarter in three drives. In the third they also had three drives and two of them were three and outs. They had less than 50 yards in the quarter. Through 3 quarters, they had less thaby The Professor - RamsFootballFans.com
