Coach Jeff Fisher admitted the Rams need to get Austin the ball in space more — just don’t expect to see that during the preseason.

“We just have to give him the ball,” Fisher said. “Give him the ball in space, because we all know what he can do with it. And so we’re doing some different things. Probably won’t show a whole lot in the preseason, but I’ve (sic) very pleased with where he’s at right now.”

i’m hoping this is what it is. just save the secret weapon for the regular season.

he’s the most explosive player on the rams offense. you have to use him. in the passing game. in the running game. let’s go tavon!

i don’t know. barrett jones seems like the type of guy fans should be least angry at. hard worker. intangibles through the roof. smart. these injuries are disappointing, but i would hardly say i’m angry at him. i’d keep him and see what happens. i think he’s worth the risk.

i’m excited to see this offensive line. i think it will have a bigger impact than any other offensive group. the running game. and then off that the play action. pass protection. i’m excited to see how quickly this group can get it together. that should be the identity of this offense. the line.

i’m of the opinion that tavon should be a major contributor outside of just special teams. whether the team passes it a lot or not, you don’t spend that kind of draft value on a special teams guy. i really hope he’s not the next desmond howard. my only hope is holt is not much of an evaluator. great players don’t always make great evaluators. we’ll see.

greg robinson, alec ogletree, and sam bradford.

i want to see greg robinson clean things up a little bit in pass protection. that one mental error last game. don’t want to see that again.

i am extremely encouraged by what laurinaitis had to say about alec. i hope it isn’t just talk. sounds like he’s becoming a real professional.

i want to see sam shake that rust off.

well that’s disturbing. cuz i don’t think britt or quick are the answer. not as starting wrs. that leaves bailey who i like. but he’s suspended for the first four games. cook? kendricks? right now i see a bunch of complimentary receivers, but no number one type wr. is that going to work? i think it will for now with the running game looking as strong as it does. but i think ultimately bailey or austin have to step up. or both. i don’t see anyone else on the roster who is capable.

good omens. offensive line. bailey. austin. running backs.

bad omens. run defense. tackling. secondary.

defense just looks horrible so far.

great adjustment by bailey.

stedman! great catch!

don’t get too adventurous on that skateboard, robert!

it does come off to me as coming to the right situation at the right time.

walton had pretty much the same defense, but williams comes at a time when ogletree and brockers should have breakout years. and then to top that off, they add one of the more pro-ready defensive tackles in recent memory basically as a gift. not to mention joyner.

if the defense blows up, this will inflate his ego even more.

if the defense flops, i think his reputation takes a huge hit.

they’re all sons of bitches. but williams probably is moreso than the average nfl coach.

he IS from the buddy ryan coaching tree after all… that goes for fisher too.

if stacy can stay healthy. if he could just stay healthy. this guy is gonna be something else. just great running instincts. harder to bring down than jackson. and then everything else should fall into place. bradford. the wrs. he’s just gotta stay healthy.

oh dear. greg is looking to hurt someone on friday…

something tells me he’s a completely different player when full contact is involved.
