chat room, 10:15 et/9:15 pt…Monday game, what's your prediction?

i am most curious to see samson ebukam. i think he was solid in the preseason. not spectacular. but now he gets to play behind donald, suh, and brockers.

athletically this guy is a beast. i’ve talked about this before, but as excited as everyone was to read about the rams aggressively pursuing mack, the rams have a guy with lots of potential already in samson. mack i think is probably the more fluid athlete. but ebukam has a slight edge in terms of pure explosion. and this guy is about as explosive as they come. you’d be hard pressed to find someone his size with more explosion. at least on paper. and the rams i’m sure were playing vanilla packages in the preseason. i imagine. and especially now with donald back and a true starting front seven surrounding ebukam. that sonofbum has designed a bunch of ways to let ebukam loose.

seriously guys. this guy is an uber athlete. of course that doesn’t guarantee success. but if any dcoordinator can tap into that immense talent it’s gotta be sonofbum.

beyond that. i’m excited to see this secondary – particularly marcus peters and john johnson. i think we know what we’ll get with the rest of the secondary. but these two have the most untapped potential.

and again. it’s obviously an exciting prospect seeing donald and suh play next to each other, but i don’t think we should be too surprised by what we’ll see. of course i don’t think a lot of us will have seen anything like it. maybe except for the older generation who saw deacon and merlin lining up next to each other. but me? i haven’t seen that in my lifetime. and i probably will never see anything like it again for my entire existence as a rams fan. so i gotta savor it… assuming it goes the way i think it will.

i can’t wait any longer. it’s just all i think about at the moment.

Raiderdamus’ Friday Foretelling: Raiders vs. Rams

The Raiders may have just traded the best edge rusher in the NFL, but the Rams have avoided that problem by not employing any edge rushers at all. …..

This is funny. Read the whole thing and look at the pictures. 😉

I’m predicting Rams 34-Raiders 6

On Mack, Adam Schefter says the Rams offered a 1st and 3rd with the idea they would trade him after the year for approximately the same thing. And just get him for a year.

Not a bad gamble, imo.
