InvaderRamModeratorand 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.

InvaderRamModeratorI enjoyed reading that. I always tried my best to be present in the moment when watching Donald play. I wanted to truly appreciate his greatness and be sure to acknowledge what a unique era his career was for Rams fans. Still, I don’t think I appreciated his dominance enough.
i know what you mean. i always knew that when i watched him play i was watching something different. and i might possibly never see his like again. but i still don’t think i appreciated how truly great he was.
well said.
InvaderRamModeratorResign Stafford, or go all-in for Sam Darnold?
i know you’re joking but no. he’s had a good season but hell no.
i’m also hoping they sign staley for new rams left tackle.
then draft a receiver and a defensive back in the draft. sprinkle in some lb, dl, and ol depth in the draft.
InvaderRamModeratorThey could do a lot between now and September and field a real contender in 2025. Need to draft and/or sign an OT, a CB or 2, an ILB, and probably a fast receiver. Which is all do-able.
they need to re-sign stafford too.
i’ll be continually worried until they actually re-sign him.
InvaderRamModeratorKupp is a mere shadow of himself. A wraith. Cooper Wraith. Outside of Puka, no one seems to be able to get separation. I wonder if defenses have figured out how to take advantage of the lack of speed the Rams have at WR, and since the TEs and RBs don’t really figure into the passing attack very much, the offense is getting stymied.
yeah. it’s not just hav. coop has declined. overall they lack speed. i agree with nittany.
InvaderRamModeratorRams Bros.@RamsBrothers
Only 6 teams in NFL HISTORY have made the playoffs after starting the season 1-4:
• 1970 Bengals
• 1992 Chargers
• 2002 Titans
• 2011 Broncos
• 2015 Chiefs
• 2018 Coltshow many have won their division?
InvaderRamModeratornoteboom was horrible. kinchens shoulda knocked the ball down? but maybe better to secure the possession instead of something crazy happening?
but yay.
