znModeratorfrom https://www.therams.com/news/jordan-whittington-is-ascending-in-the-rams-wide-receiver-room
When the Rams’ sixth-round rookie wide receiver Jordan Whittington caught 11 passes for 126 yards through two preseason games, many suspected that general manager Les Snead had hit on another late-round gem. What’s been unexpected is how quickly Whittington has received the opportunity to showcase that value in the regular season, in part due to injuries in his position group.
Well, it wasn’t surprising to everyone.
“When I first saw Puka Nacua, I knew he was something special. I felt the same way for Jordan,” wide receiver Tutu Atwell said.
znModeratorGary Klein@LATimeskleinRams CB Darious Williams was a full participant in practice. So it appears he is trending toward playing against Packers.October 4, 2024 at 1:20 am in reply to: upcoming Packers game w/ broadcast map (game is basically national) #152517znModerator👀👀

Here’s the coverage map for games being shown on CBS that kick off at 4:25 p.m. ET.
znModeratorBlaine Grisak@bgrisakTST
Rams rookie Jared Verse has been named defensive rookie of the month. Verse led all rookies with 5 TFLs and was the only rookie to record 4-or-more tackles in each game this month.Rams iOL Logan Bruss is a prime example of why it’s important to be patient in player development. Not sure his comeback this season has been talked about enough. Bruss currently ranks fourth via ESPN’s run-block win rate. He is PFF’s top-rated guard on gap-scheme runs. This isn’t to say that Bruss has been perfect. Still has some rough moments in pass protection.
znModeratorIan Rapoport@RapSheetThe #Rams have opened the practice window for DL Larrell Murchison and CB Darious Williams — and Williams was designated for return, an indication he’ll play quickly.znModeratorMight just be me, but Rams RB Kyren Williams seems to be a little more shifty this year in spots.
Has two really nice cuts here to pick up 12 yards. Rams back to 11 personnel. Good block by Parkinson to move Sweat and Kyren does the rest. pic.twitter.com/uMWEL5GzlD

znModeratorLike I said…Stafford's ability to hit some of these in-breakers in the Rams offense is next level shit.
Changes his arm angle around the incoming pass rusher…and manages to get the ball over the linebacker and underneath the safety.
Incredible throw. pic.twitter.com/r9GmGmyq28

znModeratorJAKE ELLENBOGEN@JKBOGENMy thinking is that the #Rams red zone play-calling isn’t good enough. Now, couple that with no Cooper Kupp who is one of the best red zone receivers in the game and the OL giving up three of their 13 sacks in the red area … it’s not hard to see why their red zone numbers suckznModeratorpff – week 4

#Rams red zone trips:

• vs. AZ: 1-3
• vs. SF: 2-3
• vs. CHI: 1-4

• #1 in pressure rate, despite blitzing at the 5th lowest rate (per NGS)
• 25th in sacks (7)
• Top-3 in missed tacklesOnly thing that’s preventing the Rams from having a winning record?
Execution & finishing. That’s why we’re all so damn frustrated.

Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigue
Asked McVay and Stafford about red zone issues – Rams are 27th in red zone touchdowns despite tying for 1st in getting to red zone (tied for first in red zone drives, want to be clear.) Whether overall strategy (calls, sequencing, etc) is the issue. But both indicated they think it’s about play execution. More in column later in the week.For those asking (and many are), much discussion today about back 7/8 [on defense] as well and communication errors + injuries affecting that group more than anticipated. Those are two critical areas among many concerns for the 1-3 Rams. Lot to get to this week.
