QuoteJimYoungblood53 and maybe Day can spedd Brockers, some Yeah, well... The Rams signing Robinson in the first place told me all that I needed to know about how they felt about Gaines and SJD coming into the season (particularly against the run). Assuming the 8-game issue is correct, though, I believe that most of our division games are backloaded. If SJD/Gaines work out, Robinson willby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

From the article: Quote4) Rookie running back Cam Akers had a welcome-to-the-NFL moment early. During the second series of the first team offense against the first team defense, the offense had marched into the redzone. Akers took a loss left, then had the ball stripped loose by defensive tackle Aaron Donald, with safety John Johnson III scooping it up to end the drive. Hmmm...I seem to recaby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
Quotezn QuoteramBRO I place emphasis on the 3rd hypothesis because avoidance of hospitals out of fear of contracting Covid-19 was mentioned several times in the 3rd referenced article that focused on cardiac issues in Europe (in particular, Italy and Spain).

I just got finished reading the above-linked article that was posted by Rams43 a couple of days ago. Because of arguments that I've heard wherein folks have been suggesting that public health orders (i.e. lockdowns, social distancing, face-covers, etc.) are actually more harmful than Covid-19 itself, the title of the piece definitely caught my attention.

Can't recall which program, but I recall listening to an interview with Noteboom this Spring on NFL Radio.

QuoteJamesJM <snipped> There DOES EXIST a point where the 'cure' is worse than the disease... and acknowledging that IS science, and morally and ethically SOUND. I agree with this statement.

QuoteRams43 From the linked piece... QuoteAs I have long said, the collateral damage of these foolish policies will far exceed deaths from COVID, in the form of human suffering: alcohol and drug abuse, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, and suicide.
