znModeratorSosa Kremenjas@QBsMVPPuka Nacua is a fucking awesome player but still isn’t perfect. He leads the league in drops (5) and has double-clutched at least a few. Now, you could say a higher rate of targets = a higher rate of potential drops, but he still *can* get better.znModeratorBlaine Grisak@bgrisakTST
Not including the final two drives for the Rams…In the second-half yesterday, McVay called 4 runs to 14 passes.Taking away garbage time (win% > 10%), Rams averaged 0.903 rushing EPA/play.
They averaged -0.720/play in drop back EPA.
Rams were never going to beat the Eagles running the ball, but a 0.903 to -0.720 difference is wild.
Shows importance of remaining balanced on offense.
znModeratorTHE PASS. THE CATCH. GOOD LAWD.

znModeratorCooper Kupp looked just as elite as we remember! Here with his patented move beating an elite CB in Slay
I suspect he and Stafford will need to work on timing after a year of not working together in live action.

znModeratorWith Tutu Atwellâs speed and Puka Nacuaâs physicality, the Rams can create a lot of two-way-go scenarios for Cooper Kupp, who might be the best in the league in this situation.

A loss to a good team & once again our young guns hung in as long as they could before it fell apart. Potential is there BUT there are missing pieces we need to fill to realise it. Onto the Cardinals next week..Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigueRob Havenstein off the field with training staff, Warren McClendon in at RT. Rams on the field on fourth and 12 with a brand new RT..Fishkiller@FV_Mylia_LynnRams lost. I’m not surprised. Expected them to lose to the Eagles today. Eagles have best OL in NFL & a top-5 DL. 1st half got my hopes up but the offense continued its 2nd half ineptitude & the Eagles OL began to impose their will as the game wore on..Blaine Grisak @bgrisakTST…and that’s the ball game. Rob Havenstein is forced to leave the game. Warren McClendon ends up giving up a sack. Not a situation you wanted to be in as an offense, allowing Eagles pass rushers to pin their ears back and rush..Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigueEagles had 23 first downs and were 10-of-12 on third down in initial three quarters. On those third downs, seven were third-and-5 or more.

znModeratorroberto clemente@rclemente2121the rams d ranks:2nd best in 3rd down conversions allowed
2nd best in completion % allowed
7th best in pass yards per attempt allowed
8th best in qb rating allowedthe eagles d has been stout vs the run but not the pass, will the rams come out passing?
the rams rank #7 in offensive scoring, the eagles #5 – both offenses also rank top 10 in third down conversion rate, scoring per drive, field goals per drive and offense epa, while being very close in yards gained per play.
znModeratorPARAM
We need a good TOP and chunk plays. We’ve got 21 – 20 yd plays and have allowed 15. Indy had 7 of them. But we had 8. We had 6 against Seattle and Cincinnati, allowing just 3 combined. The game we had only 1, vs SF (who had 5), we still won the TOP with 33:11. So that alone won’t cut it. We have to control the ball AND get chunk plays. And hopefully prevent them.
Our defense hasn’t allowed 250 yards passing yet. In fact, only once over 206. Philly is averaging 226. We did have 2 bad games vs. the run though. 159 vs SF and 133 last week. So really only 1 bad game. McCaffrey had 20 for 116 (5.8). Richardson ran for 56 of the 133, leaving RBs with 21 for 77 (3.6). Now we face a good RB (Swift) and a good running QB. But Hurts has carried 40 times for only 134 (3.3).

znModeratorRams have put WR Tutu Atwell in same side fast motion on 40 pass plays this year, most among NFL WRs by 30 (!!) plays.
it's been a blend of inside and fast out motions, a nice new wrinkle in Sean McVay's offense pic.twitter.com/JYKgL3AwLn

znModeratorCameron DaSilva@camdasilvaSean McVay told reporters that Cooper Kupp will make his season debut on Sunday “unless something different happens in the next 48 hours” Ochaun Mathis is also being activated off IRznModeratorBlaine Grisak@bgrisakTST
No Joe Noteboom and no Alaric Jackson practicing yesterday for the Rams.The stability at the LT position is the primary cause of concern on the Rams offensive line.
If Jackson/Noteboom can’t go, it will be 3/5 games Rams have had to make a change at that spot.
If the Rams don’t have a starting LT on Sunday and have to go with Thomas/McClendon, it’s going to be very difficult for them to function how they want vs. PHI.
This is a game where you need to be able to line up in empty and spread the defense out. Need protection to do that.

Interesting stat via The Athletic Football Show… The Rams lead the NFL is throws between the hashes with 25. Meanwhile, the Eagles defense ranks 30th in EPA on defending throws between the hashes.znModeratorAJ Schulte@AJSchulteFBMike LaFleur deserves a lot of credit. Easy to see his influence over the Rams offense. Perhaps the most interesting development is less screens. Rams are 31st in screen rate this year, per SIS. Thru 4 games last year they were 5th; 1st in 2021. -
