A Kyren Kudos and a Corum question

[Twopointtry]

I was quoting something that flashed on the screen during a Rams game. I guess it was wrong if your statement is correct.

Maybe the stat was about lost fumbles, because during that time period (per ESPN stats) Williams has 7 lost fumbles while Cook has 5. Statmuse credits Williams with 8 lost fumbles since 2023, tied for the most by any non-QB player during that period.

At Notre Dame, Williams had 8 fumbles on 497 scrimmage touches, which is one for ever 62 touches, a very poor rate. In the NFL (per PFR stats), he's fumbled once every 93 touches, which is okay. Not great, but not a terrible rate. Everything is relative. Eric Dickerson was known as a crazy fumbler and per PFR stats he fumbled once every 42 scrimmage touches in his pro career.

Jadan Baugh, the Florida RB mentioned above, has an almost unbelievable success rate with ball security. He has 490 career scrimmage touches, nearly exactly the same number that Williams had in college. He's only fumbled one time.

You ride the hot hand and right now that is Williams.

2023 & 2024.....8 fumbles, 610 touches.....a fumble every 76.3 touches.....18.2% improvement over NCAA
2025 & 2026.....3 fumbles, 370 touches.....a fumble every 123.3 touches.......61.5% improvement over the previous 2 years

In other words.........considerable improvement

Maybe you read it wrong?
Kyren has been solid the last year and a half, including playoffs. Using 2023 stats against him at this point is strictly for "haters"

 

[fearsomefour]

I like Corum, he's a nice back.
Kyren exceeds him in two key areas.....he is a much better receiver and a better blocker. That alone should get him a lot more snaps.
Im very comfortable going back to a 65/35% split.
Thats no bad feelings toward Corum, just, Kyren is a more complete back.
Hes proven it.

 

[dieterbrock]

Sure we can focus on his fumble problem in 2023 or we can look at these stats
Kyren Williams career starts: 48
Kyren Williams career touchdowns: 48

 

[InfiniteRam]

Lot's of talk about the "hot" hand and splitting carries.

Corum cannot do the things KW did in that game against the Eagles. Period.

 

[Stl2La]

Kyren is probably my favorite player on the team. Grew up in STL and is a true lifelong rams fan. This guy is living the dream and he’s ballin so far this year.

 

[Pupped]

Corum ran harder and more decisively between the tackles yesterday than any time I've seen on the Rams.

And he's got that next gear that Kyren doesn't.

Fun to have BOTH of these guys!

Yeah man, we were spoiled for sure. As much as I love Kyren and how gutsy he plays, I still want a top tier can score from anywhere from the field dual threat RB. Why? Well historically we've been blessed with some bad ass running backs playing for the Rams so to me its only fitting lol.

just think of a big wild ram head butting. that's what I love about our helmets. can be intimidating if you've ever seen the power of a ram. play like that. we win. play like a lamb, we lose. lol

That's now a 15-yard penalty. See Skattebo yesterday....

 

[Allen2McVay]

I don't believe it. sauce??

How about a nice Puttanesca? Or, perhaps a spicy Arrabbiata?

That was so bullshit

 

[RamWoodie]

I don't think there's an issue here. You keep riding both guys. It ain't like either is Wendell Tyler!!!

Skattabo calls out the NFL... Good!

I'm usually more concerned about Matt's picks than KW's fumbles.
Matt is up 6-3, so far with the TO's.

 

[Ramstien]

I like Skattebo because he is a tough SOB.

 

[Cjcinec]

I love Kyren and props to him helping the Rams break the iggles hearts and win this last game. But Kyren also leads the league in RB fumbles

Facts when stated should be ACCURATE!
