InvaderRamModeratoryeah. they’re the same age but injuries have clearly got the best of kupp. i love kupp, and it was a bummer to see, but this one you could see a mile away.

March 17, 2025 at 8:41 pm in reply to: 1st FA wave over, assessments + 2nd wave of signings & extensions #155573InvaderRamModeratorPro Football Focus’ Max Chadwick believes the Rams’ biggest issue remains at cornerback because of the team’s current depth chart of Darious Williams, Cobie Durant and Emmanuel Forbes Jr.
i’m just not sure i like a CB at 26. unless they trade up. or trade down. or someone falls. but i definitely don’t want them to reach. i’d prefer they trade up. i don’t want just a solid corner. i want a superstar if they draft one. but i’m not sure i see one. travis hunter probably but they’d have to give up a lot to get him. otherwise i prefer a fa signing.
but what do i know?
InvaderRamModeratorThere’s elements missing. So I don’t think they qualify.
can’t remember if there was a single defining run in that game, but faulk against philadelphia was something to behold. and instrumental in getting the rams to the superbowl. woulda meant more if the rams won the entire thing, but that was a great performance.
InvaderRamModeratori got the sense this was gonna happen about midway through the season. it just looked like the todd gurley situation all over again.
the kupp nacua duo didn’t even get off the ground. it sucked. would have been good to see, and i think they coulda made it work.
it’ll be interesting to see what the rams do in the draft. do they try to complement nacua and adams with a third receiver and try to recreate the woods, kupp, obj trio? that’d be wild.
i think kupp is cooked. or at least the rams think he is.
InvaderRamModeratori want them to draft tyler warren. how scary would that be?
March 11, 2025 at 6:59 pm in reply to: why Davonte Adams is good…update, must read: Matt Bowen on Adams #155436InvaderRamModeratorand i’m only putting this out so the universe can prove me wrong.
March 11, 2025 at 6:58 pm in reply to: why Davonte Adams is good…update, must read: Matt Bowen on Adams #155435InvaderRamModeratorRemember he’s brought in to be a #2.
yeah. but the fall off is dramatic. like ugly dramatic.
March 10, 2025 at 6:37 pm in reply to: why Davonte Adams is good…update, must read: Matt Bowen on Adams #155410InvaderRamModeratori’m a little worried. just looking for examples of wrs who remained productive beyond age 32. it’s slim. there’s rice. marvin harrison. muhsin muhammad. and not much else.
InvaderRamModeratorhe’s actually older than kupp.
but he’s also been much healthier and more productive.
i’m also reading good things about his work ethic. so hopefully he’s got two more productive years in him. it wouldn’t be unprecedented. but at the same time, there’s lots of productive receivers who fell off in their thirties.
InvaderRamModeratorthe receiving performances of receivers older than 32 is a little shaky. i’m assuming the rams did their due diligence on adams.
hopefully he takes care of his body.
InvaderRamModeratorI hope that this works out better than the Allen Robinson signing.
It will be interesting to see how this impacts the Rams approach to the draft. I feel like this increases the likelihood that the Rams draft a corner with their first pick. Who knows though, it’s tough to predict who is going to be available so late in the first round. Maybe a good TE is still there. I kind of hope that some team is eager to move up from the second round and call the Rams. It would be nice to pick up some more picks.
he has five consecutive seasons with 1000 yards or more. not many games missed. but older than robinson was when he was signed. i think it’s a good signing.
if they want one of the top tight ends, they’re gonna have to trade up.
InvaderRamModeratormy personal preference is for a tight end. mcvay has talked about getting more versatile. i trust that they’ll make the right choice. if the rams don’t bring bb iii back, i’d even be fine if they drafted a defensive tackle.
InvaderRamModeratorat this point i’d say rams should stay in the first round and pick best available tight end or cornerback. if one isn’t available at that point then trade back.

January 26, 2025 at 7:47 pm in reply to: set up for NFC/AFC championship games & game reactions #154964InvaderRamModeratorI guess if you tell me I have to pick a team to win it all, I will go with the Chiefs. Just because that will get people saying that Brady never won 3 in a row.
this.
InvaderRamModeratora flawed team for sure. and i love williams, but his ball security issues drive me crazy. still had a chance at the end though. was there a roughing the passer penalty at the end there? that would have been tough to call there. puka hung in tough and the conditions were bad. coop played like a tough vet. defense was awesome. lots to build on. limmer seemingly whiffed in that block that led to the stafford sack at the end.
they need a corner, an offensive tackle, and another receiver. another defensive lineman.
InvaderRamModeratorbest draft class by the rams since i’ve been following them. which is going on thirty years.

InvaderRamModeratorcalabasas has been evacuated. a lot of rams players live near there.
InvaderRamModeratorBlaine Grisak @bgrisaktst.bsky.social
Rams rookie Jared Verse finished the season with a True Pressure Rate of 52.5. Only Chris Jones and Myles Garrett were higher. His 6.4 snaps per pressure led the NFL.Verse had 34 high quality pressures which also trailed just Garrett and Jones. His 13.2 snaps per high quality pressure ranked 7th.
he just needs to start converting more of those pressures into sacks.
InvaderRamModeratorAccording to Pro Football Focus, the Rams’ schedule was the hardest of any playoff team based on the chart below. It shows that the offensive and defensive strength of their opponents was the highest of every team that made the postseason.
oh. you already posted it. haha! that gives me at least some encouragement.
InvaderRamModeratorhere’s the tweet.

InvaderRamModeratori didn’t know where to post this and not sure how accurate it is, but the rams supposedly faced the strongest combination of offensive and defensive units of any team in the playoffs.
Is this chart accurate? Saw it on X, in a non-Rams post.
byu/CaptainOblivionKnows inLosAngelesRamsInvaderRamModeratorYou know who did literally train with a martial artist? D’Marco Farr. He used that training to improve his hands in fighting blocks. It was one of the reasons he had a great year in 99.
but did he train with knives? hahahaha!
InvaderRamModeratorYeah, i dont understand why there is ZERO information about what is going on with Kupp.
shades of todd gurley going on here.
InvaderRamModeratorif the rams win another superbowl in the next four years, i think we’ll all look at this year’s draft and the year prior as the catalyst. they have to be ranked among the better drafts in the past twenty years.
How did Kyren Williams not make the Pro Bowl?
my guess is williams’ lack of impact in the receiving game? although i gotta say that the rams winning the division and only having one pro bowler is ridiculous.
InvaderRamModeratorIf the Rams offense doesn’t show up, it really doesn’t matter anyway.
yeah. and i’m not holding out hope for the offense. unless kupp can magically regain his prime self. that’s probably been the saddest thing to watch on the rams this season.
InvaderRamModeratorI would also argue that you don’t bring in a new FA to replace a young one who has been with you…keep your guy, and use FA money to bring in an outsider who fits a position where you have issues to fix.
if they bring back jackson, i’ll be happy too. and i agree with you about adding a tackle in the draft.
one question. what do the rams do with jonah jackson at the end of the season? is it feasible to cut him? or do you even want to cut him? keep him for depth?
InvaderRamModeratorjust want to take a moment to appreciate beaux limmer. i thank snead every day for bringing him into our lives.
