znModeratorWhitworth & Blythe they need to let walk.
Completely disagree.
znModeratorLMU93
Last year the Rams had 20.5 sacks by players not named Aaron Donald (1.3 per game)This year they have 32 (2.5 per game).
Cameron DaSilva@camdasilva
Tyler Higbee has 40 catches, which is almost half of Zach Ertz’s total (79). Yet, Higbee has 8 more YAC and the same number of broken tackles (3)==
TYLER HIGBEE, LOS ANGELES RAMS
Higbee was a weapon in the Rams’ play-action game on Sunday night. His 116 yards were tops among all tight ends this week, as he moved the chains on four of his seven targets. It was such an impressive performance that he still made our team despite a drop.znModeratorIn the 2019 divisional playoff round, Z. Elliot was held to 47 rushing yards, averaging only 2.4 yards per attempt. I believe this punishing hit by @dantefowler set the tone for the Rams defense that night pic.twitter.com/JU9f65AFTA

Austin Blythe being able to move from guard to center midseason and play well in the process – and really, provide leadership to the bunch of youngsters around him at a critical stretch of the season – has been a low-key big dealznModeratorDante Fowler, Whitworth, Littleton, Brockers, Zuerlein, Austin Blythe,
Hagar, Bortles, Marquis Christian.Some important players on that list. Who will they lose?
Whitworth has hinted he is coming back. Of the remaining players you list, I see them keeping Littleton and Blythe. Possibly Zuerlein.

The NFL has set its projected salary cap range for 2020, giving the Rams some extra spending money – not that they hadn’t already accounted for it. The Rams are projected to have between $22.8 and $27.2 million in cap space next year.Tom Pelissero@TomPelissero
The NFL informed club officials today it is projecting a salary cap of $196.8 million to $201.2M. That’s up from $188.2M this season. Revenue growth continues entering final year of labor deal.𝒥𝒾𝓂 𝐸𝓋𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓉𝓉@Jim_Everett

znModeratorznModeratorFor some very odd reason, however, their second half, at least on offense, was much more in keeping with the way they’ve played this year. I have no idea why they seemed to lose what they had built in the first half. They weren’t a Super Bowl offense in half two, though their defense was from the first quarter on. Their defense played Super Bowl caliber football for 60 minutes.
I agree about the defense, and I partly agree about the offense in the 2nd half. Ah but, they did have that 95 yard scoring drive early in the 4th quarter, which was pretty damm clutch. I will take some struggles on offense if they then rise up and play clutch when it counts.

QBs need help. People bailed on Goff during the Rams crisis. Suddenly he’s dealing. Same w Wentz. Dude just needs help. He’s got a great arm. He’s mobile. A total playmaker. But Eagles have NO speed at WR. They also lost a top offensive coach or two. He’ll be fine.Vincent Bonsignore@VinnyBonsignore

Russell Wilson has put up some crazy numbers when targeting Tyler Lockett the last few years. Collinsworth even mentioned that Russ hadn’t thrown an INT when targeting him deep.

Game 13 Seahawks … Signature win at home ..
I think we’ve all been waiting for the 2019 Rams to show up and I think they have finally … that was a costly super bowl hangover … and the playoffs will likely come down to GZ’s missed FG.
That said … I want a hungry 2020 team and it looks like we have that regardless.
The Great
1) No offensive TDs for the guy who had a perfect passer rating against us last time.
2) The rookie right side holding their own against top talented players in the run game and pass game.
3) Feeding the big dog. The stiff arm going into the end zone for TG.
4) Goff’s decisiveness. I am guessing that they’ve changed a bit of the play designs and he’s seeing his reads more clearly, but whatever it is, I am digging it.
5) Taylor Rapp beating Carson to the sticks and dropping him with no forward lunge on that 3rd and 2 or 3 … that’s not normal safety play. That’s instincts, technique, and trust in both. Not to get all wizardy but it’s like first year’s taking on a troll and living to tell the tale.
6) The fake WR screens. I almost have to think that they set those up last week and gave up first downs so that they could fake them this week against a superior opponent.
7) Higbee showing what he can do … finally. TE is long game. Some guys don’t get into it until their second contracts. It’s not a fluke if it’s back to back 100 yard games. He’s not an after thought or a check down … he’s a weapon in his own right.
8) Woods having another 1000 yard season … is that 3 now with us?
9) Troy Hill. I know he’s been rated highly … but he hasn’t made too many splash plays until recently. Long will have an uphill battle next year to overtake him on the depth chart.
The Good
10) Double digit sacks for Aaron again …
11) Cam Howard with meaningful snaps and flashing tackles …
12) Overall attitude on defense. Just a different mindset it looks like.
13) Ebukam having meaningful impact.
14) Blythe looks really more comfy at center … anyone else seeing that?
15) Corbett turns out to be a life saving pickup.
16) Folwer’s numbers will earn him a huge contract, I don’t know that his play matches it overall .. but his numbers alone should get us a 3rd round comp alongside Josh Reynolds.
17) Commanding win over a playoff rival at home on prime time.
The Bad
18) Where was Henderson?
19) What’s the deal with Cooks? He just a decoy deep threat now?
20) The pick 6 let them back in the game … it was a confusing defense with a free rusher but it was still a bummer.
21) 4th and 18 conversion? Lord.
Thoughts about the future ..
22) Do we keep Cooks’ # on the books?
23) I don’t resign Brockers …
24) I trade or cut Hav. No hard feelings I think there are teams that could use him, I just prefer Evans’ feet.
25) I resign Ramsey long term.
26) Littleton has to give us a tiny discount …
27) Malcolm Brown is not as violent as he was … I am definitely drafting another bruising back.
28) I’ll take Whit another year if he’ll stay.
