InvaderRamModeratorSosa Kremenjas@QBsMVP
Terrell Lewis in the past two weeks since Justin Hollins’ injury (@PFF):2 sacks (1st on the team)
10 pressures (3rd)
15.7% win percentage (1st on DL)
14.3% pressure percentage (1st on DL)
8.6 pass-rush productivity (1st on DL)T-Lew has arrived. Developing
He had EIGHT (!!!!) pressures vs. the Seahawks. Led the team.
deSean Jackson is averaging 30.7 receiving yards per reception this season. That is the highest in the NFL among all players with 10-plus targets (@PFF).
Next closest is nearly a whole 10 yards fewer (22.0).
i hope that lewis can stay healthy. it’s probably the only thing holding him back.
InvaderRamModeratorI didn’t catch all the blather from Buck and Aikman, but it didn’t seem like they had an explanation for the double punt play.
they said the exact same thing you did. the guy was past the line of scrimmage. the refs screwed that one up. had he not been past the line of scrimmage it would have been a good play.
InvaderRamModeratorrams still look not in peak form.
but they pull out a win.
InvaderRamModeratornevermind he’s been traded. to carolina for a sixth round pick.
InvaderRamModeratorSo I’m in the camp of “it’s multiple issues, not just the coach or not just the players”.
that was a good post. thanks for that.
i hope the rams find a way to sign gilmore.

InvaderRamModeratorif the rams can afford him, they should go for it.
InvaderRamModeratorWhat else? Well among other things, Arizona knew how to pick on Long.
yeah. long got spanked.
InvaderRamModeratorI’m worried about this DC… he’s certainly no Brandon Staley, that’s for damn sure.
well. i don’t know either. i was lurking over at the herd. and some posters were saying that staley would just sit back in coverage too… that’s what i seem to remember too.
the biggest difference in the defense i see is that the coverage isn’t as tight. short passes seem to turn into long gains. and the tackling is atrocious. i thought that burgess would claim one of the starting safety spots and instead the rams have rapp. that should have been a telling sign. if you’re going to play bend but don’t break, you better have solid tackling. that’s what they had last year. this year the tackling has been weak. once they catch the ball take them to the ground. instead it’s short catch and then a scamper for 10 yards.
InvaderRamModeratorit’s cold.
InvaderRamModeratorif only lewis could stay healthy…
well if he could stay healthy he wouldn’t be a ram. he woulda been drafted in the first round.
InvaderRamModeratoralso not trying to say that goff would have been this good. he would not have. not as good as stafford has been. but he would have been better than he was.
InvaderRamModeratori love matt stafford and what he’s done so far. and he deserves all the accolades. but this oline has been awesome as well.
and not to take anything away from stafford, but it sure woulda been nice to see goff have that much protection the past couple years.

InvaderRamModeratorinteresting. i hope they give him a chance.
InvaderRamModeratorfor what it’s worth football outsiders ranks the rams offense number one and the defense number thirteen.
i have no idea what goes into those rankings.
overall they rank the team third. behind carolina and cleveland…
InvaderRamModeratorOne caveat: the stadium acoustics are just as loud for fans of the visiting team, and as of now, it still appears to me that Los Angeles has a higher proportion of visiting fans than anywhere else because LA was without a team for 20 years, but not without football fans.
it’s changing. in just the five years they’ve been here, i’ve seen a big change in the amount of rams fans in the city. it’s mostly older folks, so i think a large part of it is just old rams fans starting to welcome their old team back. but there are a lot of younger fans too.
and most importantly i rarely ever see chargers fans walking around.

InvaderRamModeratorhappy with the win. and yet i feel this team can get better.
i think the running game can get better.
the tackling can get better.
the pass rush can get better.
and shoot. stafford underthrew jackson twice!
haha!
seriously though. i think the rams can and will tighten things up as the season goes on. but happy so far with what i’m seeing.
InvaderRamModeratorfwiw, it’s a faith-based movie.
well. that’s pretty much what i figured it would be.
InvaderRamModeratorya know if i watched a movie like this i’d normally think what kind of cheesy ass shit is this?
but then that cheesy ass shit really did happen… crazy.
trying to look for that si cover with kurt with the title “who is this guy?”. still gets me. just watching it all unfold was something else.

InvaderRamModerator2) Kupp. Likely his pro bowl year. Does he lead the NFL in yards right now?
he’s actually third. the two ahead of him are samuel of sf (eek!) and lockett of sea (oh no!). nfc west is tough.
9) There were notable busts in protection.
10) Um … guys … catch the football.
hopefully, it’s just a matter of knocking off the rust.
19) On McVay. Everyone on this board, everyone that has scouted D Henderson … knows he is a complimentary back. He was getting up slow in the 2nd quarter. By the 3rd quarter he was obviously gassed. We were yelling at the television. How does an entire staff miss that? He can’t play every down. Memphis is a time share school. He hasn’t played every down since high school. Now we have two healthy backs. This was avoidable.
yeah. sony and darrell should have been sharing carries from the get. i understand maybe game 1. but not game 2. and same goes for michel with darrell out. jones and/or funk should be seeing some carries next week.
InvaderRamModeratori was a doubter. i don’t know enough about line play to really say anything of substance. but. from what i’ve been reading and the fact that stafford has largely had tons of time to throw i am pleasantly surprised by the line play as a whole.
i think there was one play where protection just really broke down, but i think the announcers said that whit was at fault. i don’t expect that to happen often.
hopefully, it continues.
InvaderRamModeratorsome boneheaded errors. missed tackles.
i give them these 2 games because the main guys sat out all preseason. but preseason is officially over. tampa bay is next. so they gotta clean that stuff up.
kupp. could this be his breakout season? plays like a 10 year veteran. keep forgetting he’s only played 4 seasons. and one of them he missed half the season. it’s time he get some recognition.
InvaderRamModeratoryou know. they could be the defensive version of thunder and lightning…
InvaderRamModeratorramsey and donald. donald and ramsey. this is a special moment in time for rams fans. players like these two don’t come around very often. we get the pleasure of seeing them both on the team we root for.
InvaderRamModeratorAaron Donald seemed a tiny bit off in game one.
He just-missed making a coupla plays he usually makes.
w
vyeah. there were a couple of plays where he had the guy right in his hands. and when that happens almost always the guy goes to the ground.
InvaderRamModeratorstafford looked good. still need a bigger sample size, but he looked good.
wondering right now if higbee can have the breakout season i thought he’d have last season.
tackling was bad. but it’s the first game of the season, and the starters never saw the preseason.
really glad to see rochell get reps. good to see williams and hoecht get reps too. want to see brown get some reps now.
InvaderRamModeratorwell. mcvay and stafford both got what they wanted. can’t wait to see how it works out.
just sucks that akers injured his achilles. i really thought he could do great things this year.
September 12, 2021 at 10:13 am in reply to: previews etc.–Rams national game, 9/12, 8:20 et 5:20 pt #132075
InvaderRamModeratori won’t be on the gameday chat tonight. but i will be watching the game. i’m not nervous like i used to get. but excited about this season for sure.
September 2, 2021 at 9:33 pm in reply to: Just Realized Sarina Morales is Gone. Didn’t miss her at all. #131929
InvaderRamModeratoroh yeah i guess she left a month ago.
i liked her. i mean i’m not heartbroken she’s gone, but she seemed cool enough.
InvaderRamModeratorThe 1999 Rams might have been better, but these guys in 2021 look really good.
the 99 offense was more explosive, but i really like the defensive personnel on this 21 team.
can’t wait to watch them this season. just oozing potential at all three levels.
InvaderRamModeratorI think it would.
best case scenario he pushes robinson for the starting job when robinson comes back from injury.
