    If Mcvay ever says that someoneā€™s injury is bad or serious Iā€™m just going to assume that dude passed away

    Kupp looked like his shoulder was hurting at the end of the game. Iā€™ve yet to see anything on that though.

    Sean McVay added that Leonard Floyd is OK – ā€œjust kind of gave me a heart attack with the way he was laying there for a secondā€. Said they seemed to come out relatively clean in that heā€™s feeling positive about Staffordā€™s finger, Higbeeā€™s shoulder.

    Asked Sean McVay – as the Rams clearly showed willingness to re-shuffle secondary even prior to Williamsā€™ injury – about whether weā€™d see Terrell Burgessā€™ role expand: ā€œTerrell is a guy who you want to get going. I have a lot of belief and confidence in Terrell. You want to see

    if thatā€™s something that comes to life when we get back (from the mini-bye).ā€

    Sean McVay went for about five minutes on rookie CB Robert Rochell and how many positive, buildable things they saw from him Thurs including the way he used his length of frame, short-area quickness and how even-keel he was through mistakes.

    Sounds like heā€™ll continue to start.

    Jalen Ramsey said that CB Robert Rochell was unflappable through a few down moments despite making his first start as a rookie in a hostile environment. The DBs were talking him up after a couple moments, he said, but Rochell didnā€™t even need it because he stayed even-keeled.

    No QB in a healthy state of mind WANTS to be throwing at Ramsey. But his coverage plan makes it really, really hard to intentionally avoid him now. Rams thin at players who can unlock that versatility as they monitor Williams’ status.

    They moved Long into the slot when Williams left the game (he had not played a single snap there all season nor did to my knowledge in camp). Burgess played some slot, some Star and has played (and practiced) a little CB. We’ll see what happens – longer recovery week helps too.

    If McVay doesn’t get back to his bread & butter this team won’t make the SB. Stafford is damn good but he’s not elite. This team is basically averaging the same ppg & ypg as last season thru 5 games – against worse competition. I think that’s more on McVay than Stafford.

    Mikey Ostrowski@FF_Mikey10
    Tutu Atwell with arguably the worst kick return attempt of all time

    Richard Ramsey@Richard95549251
    Trung Candidate beat him. He took the opening kickoff to the 2 yard line to open a season once for the Rams. Don’t forget Mike Thomas fumbling the opening KO in Fisher’s last game. Also a doozie…

    Stafford Timeā€¼ļø@alfsbones
    The Rams are:
    ā€¢Last in plays per drive
    ā€¢22nd in RZ TD %
    ā€¢22nd in rushing
    All that has to change

    But the Rams are 8th in scoring.

    Who cares how long a drive is if you get points out of it?

    This speaks to the RZ TD pct too. Yeah, it would be nice to have a higher Pct of TDs but the Rams are scoring a lot of points anyway soā€¦.

    The ’22nd in rushing’ stat is interesting.

    They dont have a dynamic, explosive running game, like, say
    the Browns, but it looks to me, like maybe its “just good enuff.”

    I think if Goff was Quarterbacking they would be 28th, btw.
    Stafford forces teams to defend the whole field. Has to help
    the running game a little, I would think.

    Henderson looks like a good ‘complimentary’ back. Not a work-horse.
    Sony Michel looks very ordinary to me.

    Situation makes me think about the GSOT. All those outside-weapons, a Hall of Fame QB, AND a Hall of Fame RB/WR/player-coach. Are you kidding me?

    I see a little more in Michel than you do. He’s like a more polished version of Malcolm Brown. Better vision than Brown. Makes the most of what he has. Would never be a dynamic back in any system but reliable and tough. This is not a first tier running game and in fact statistically it’s in the below avg. but I agree that it will serve them fine.

    Sean McVay: Darious Williams could likely go on short-term injured reserve in coming days due to the fickle nature of ankle sprains but reiterates itā€™s not season-ending. Says Williams wonā€™t be available this week against NYG.

    Short term IR is three games, as a reminder, before activation window opens. McVay indicated other pieces are falling into place before team makes that call.

    Long played the slot, Ramsey bumped outside full time after Williams left. Rams donā€™t want to be stuck in ā€œQB avoidā€ situation w Ramsey affecting so many plays so exploring rotations. Personally would be interested in Ramsey/Burgess Star rotation&seeing what Long can do as slot

    By ā€œStarā€ I do not mean solely slot player, I mean moving DB who at times is featured in the slot. But I think you also get added flexibility if you can see Long grow in some slot opportunities.

    Robert Rochell, who played at Central Arkansas and was a fourth-round pick this spring, came off scout team with zero live reps to prep against Seattle on a short week with only one functioning hand. Made some mistakes, but also a big EZ PBU.
