znModeratorAt the very minimum if you're going to stand & defend homeopathic remedy as a vaccine alternative you should be prepared to lay out exactly what the remedy was.
The fact Rodgers balked on that particular line should speak volumes.

Rams legend Eric Dickerson sees [the Rams] as the team to beat right now after adding Miller. He also said Miller will benefit from this move because he now has a future Hall of Famer playing next to him in Aaron Donald.
“Most definitely,” Dickerson said via phone Wednesday when asked if the Rams are the team to beat. “I think we were one of the teams to beat anyway even before we got Von Miller. But is that a plus? Most definitely because I think even for Von it’ll be better. He doesn’t have to be the guy all the time. I know what it’s like to be the guy everyone hones in on, they game plan for you. Now they can’t just game plan for him because Raheem Morris does a great job with that defense. Von Miller is still a great player. He has Aaron Donald here and some other guys to work with, a team that can score a lot of points with a coach that’s very creative offensively and defensively. So I know he has to be excited about being here. I know it’s hard to leave a team you’ve been with for so long, but it’s a new era for him.”

Von Miller, Aaron Donald and Robert Quinn are the only players since 2016 to have a pressure rate of 14%+ in all five seasons, per Next Gen Stats.What do all three of those players have in common?

Big grin from Aaron Donald today, who says he hasn’t stopped smiling since he first saw Von Miller in the building early this week. Says the rush plan “looks real good on paper” but now focus for defensive front is on execution and turning into realityNovember 4, 2021 at 6:58 pm in reply to: Stafford thread (starting 10/21, going into week 7) #133661znModeratorThe quarterback who generated the most pass EPA has won MVP in every season in the Next Gen Stats era (since 2016).
This season, Matthew Stafford has generated almost twice as much pass EPA (+114.3) than the next closest QB (Dak Prescott: +62.2).#RamsHouse pic.twitter.com/7hESbiI2vp

Legendary wideout Larry Fitzgerald knows a great receiver when he sees one and there’s nothing that makes him believe Kupp couldn’t thrive in any offense. He broke down what makes Kupp so productive, pointing to his size, separation ability and hands.
“He’s having a phenomenal year leading the league in touchdown receptions at this point right now, I believe, and has been Matt Stafford’s safety blanket,” Fitzgerald said on his podcast with Tom Brady and Jim Gray. “He’s beat guys on the outside, he’s beat them inside with choice routes, up the seam, over the top. I mean, he’s just been able to do it in every single fashion. I think Cooper Kupp’s game could work anywhere. He’s got that type of ability. He’s big, he’s fast, he separates, he’s got tremendous hands. He’s really good in the run game. I mean, you see his effort, the way he blocks in the run game. The guy’s a complete player and you can tell he just does things the right way.”

I think because kickoff teams can dictate so much more than punts. They can tell Kupp to essentially fair catch anything and live with an exceptional punt. On a kickoff you can force a return essentially.But I’m with you, I light a candle every time Kupp is back on PR.
If I were an opposing ST coach right now I would really be enticing the Rams to try and return the kick off. A) The lack of a true returner means they aren’t picking up + yards. B) Rams ST are getting penalized so often even a good return is typically negated.

Darious Williams is in the activation window off IR currently; McVay expects him to play Sunday.znModeratorPARAM
First off, we should know we’re not getting “that” Von Miller. The SB MVP Miller. We’re getting an older version. But…..
Watched his last 3 full games (Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Las Vegas). He actually looked uninterested at times. I suppose for a 10 year vet, that can happen. Coming off of injury and not playing in 2020, I’m sure that can have an effect too. I think this guy needed a change of scenery but was too much of a loyal player to ask or didn’t even realize he needed it. I’m curious to see if he’s got a new pep in his step.
Also, I checked his defensive snaps and in the first 3 games his snaps were 45 and under. He had 4.5 sacks (7 TFL, 7 QB hits). In his last 3 games his snaps were 50, 58 and 62 and he wasn’t nearly as effective (0 sacks, 0 TFL and 2 QB hits). With Floyd, Lewis and Obo he shouldn’t have to play more than 40 or 45 snaps. Keep him fresh so he can give us 40 real good snaps instead of 60 decent ones.

Can we talk about how brilliant Sean McVay is?In a 4 year span, twice, he’s orchestrated top 5 offenses with 2 different QBs running 2 entirely different schemes

Dan orlovsky was saying on rich eisen he expects us to run a lot of packages where AD and Floyd are on the same side and Miller is on the opposite side which pretty much forces teams to single MillerznModeratorI cannot stop laughing.

Les Snead jokes that his scouting staff is on vacation in Cabo after trading two more 2022 draft picks.In all seriousness, he says trading high picks makes his staff work that much harder.

Les Snead confirms that the Rams released Jackson after 1 PM so he’ll show up on tomorrow’s waivers instead of today’s. Makes sense since they’d probably prefer a team take on his salary balance, once they’re settled following today’s releases/moves and evaluate further needs“It was an experiment that we attempted, didn’t work out as well as we wanted it to, as DeSean wanted it to or as Sean wanted it to,” said Snead.

I was surprised by how smart and basically comfortable Sanchez is. Good off the top of his head analysis, and he’s pretty articulate. I didn’t expect that.

The Rams expect Von Miller to be available for activation as early as this Sunday, following trade, source said. Certainly familiar with many schematic elements of their defense. Miller did tweak his ankle in Week 7 but Vic Fangio had previously indicated clearance as well.znModeratoralyoshamucci
Game 8 analysis … Texans
I leave when Wolford comes in so as far as Im concerned it was a shutout.
Gonna try to do these on Sundays because I get overloaded Monday and lose track of the game. of course I couldn’t finish Sunday night and now we’ve traded for Von Miller.
The Great
1) Allowing only 100 yards with starting defense.
2) First showing for Ernest Jones.
3) Henderson with the jets … I really have ben liking his speed through the holes.
4) Leonard Floyd having himself a game. He doesn’t do it every week but when he’s up against an OT he can work he’s busy. He’s always good against the run but his spurt days in the backfield are fun to watch.
5) Donte Deayon’s pick. Had to have made sports center’s top plays and it didn’t even count.
The Good
6) I like seeing Skowronek able to come in and be functional.
7) The deep ball to Van … great route and he was moving … tad underthrown but I’m okay with that.
8) Noteboom seemed to be functional in the run and pass game. We may be able to extend him for a decent price. That would be lucky. Wemay lose Allen if he grades out high enough.
9) Liked seeing Blanton out there, is Higbee okay?
10) Cooper bein Cooper.
11) Gaines with solid snaps in SJD’s absence
The Bad
12) I’m gonna keep putting Stafford’s missed throws here until he cleans it up.
13) Henry’s injury, for my fantasy teams.
14) How was Wolford? Seemed like he had to be terrible for them to score 3 times. Did we go three and out 3 times?
15) I am not a fan of how that affects our defensive rankings.
The Ugly
16) Dude, did Tutu get hurt falling down? This is his second time in the “did I really just see that?” section for him.
Von Miller Trade
17) This changes a bit. This makes 3 spots that can rush the passer.
18) He doesn’t have to be in 75% snaps now … can stay fresh.
19) Change of scenery going for a ring? We likely get his A game.
20) Gave up a 2 and 3? Guess we think Noteboom can handle OLT.
