game 12 … Cards
I wrote this on Monday and my computer crashed right as I was finishing up and I got depressed. lol So I waited. Now I’m only lightly going to touch on something I went pretty deeply into on the original. We have the makings of a dynasty. We have McVay, Goff, Kupp, and Woods signed until basically 2025. Same with Donald and Ramsey on the other side. The talk of switching QBs because Goff has some bad games and is not a top 10 ATHLETE at his position to me is not worth entertaining. The offense hums. Do we have a few bad games? Yeah. But I remember the 90s when I watched TJ Rubley at our helm. I have watched other teams play this year and have felt their pain as the QB really does need to be replaced. You can’t remove Goff. Having chemistry with WRs in invisible. But it’s why Chad Hansen came in off the practice squad and put up 100 yards for Houston. You can’t fake it, and it is powerful. You lose Goff you lose the whole offense and we cripple our young genius coach. So I’m not entertaining it.
The Great
1) The is the best Rams defense I’ve seen. For reference Im 41 and started watching in 87′ …
2) Troy Hill … dang. Are we going to lose him, too? Is he up? Gah. I don’t even mind the 4th and 12 he gave up because the throw was perfect.
3) The TD pass to Higbee was a thing of beauty. 3rd down toss to Kupp, too.
4) Finally seeing Henderson do what he did in college…
5) Woods being 2nd in the NFL in YAC, JUST BEHIND COOPER KUPP. Dang … that’s some scheming and effort right there.
The Good
6) Kenny Young making some TFLs like I remember from UCLA days.
7) Kyler going one for his first 8.
8) Hollins FF. I expected him to splash a little more but that was nice.
9) Akers TD run … as soon as I saw the hole open I yelled “That’s 6” … to no one as I was alone in my basement. I expect him to breakout soon.
10) The quickness of Fuller’s switch to Hopkins on the TD … yes I know he missed … but he was in position and he won’t miss every time.
11) Reeder showing up on time in the hole.
12) Does Donald have 12 sacks now?
13) JJ3 making some plays … gonna miss him next year.
The Bad
14) It being so close given how lopsided the stats were.
15) Not making a 4th and 1 at the goal line.
16) Does Everett have a drop in every game?
17) Goff missing Higbee breaking deep. I wouldn’t ding him on it if the guy he threw to wasn’t also right there, he could see both.
18) Missed FGs make my pets sad.
