I hope Jefferson isn't limited. He's an underrated weapon for us. Has dropped a few this year, but he's a terrific route runner and possesses the speed to stretch the defense vertically.
Plus, Jefferson is the best WR running the Jet Sweeps too.

Have they run OBJ on one yet? Would be a fun wrinkle.

I'm looking for some fresh shit.
Not yet, I just don't want Kupp running it, that's how he got hurt in Denver by a horse collar tackle that was never called.

Great Special teams player that does have the ability to catch the football and stretch the defense. He seems to be in there more because he blocks better then Jefferson and Jefferson is nursing an injury, but Jefferson is faster and I like him on the field for passing downs.

Again the knock on Skowronek is durability, he struggled with that in college and has been on the injury report multiple times and has missed a game or two, but with Jefferson ailing, Skowronek will get more playing time and his blocking should aid in the rushing attack, which is not easy against that San Francisco defense.

Then what about RR31?

Jacob Harris is going to be all that as well. I still think this draft class hasn’t gotten the credit it probably deserves.
Then again it’s what have you done for me (ever) lately.

Tutu Atwell is actually a player I think is underrated by Ram Fans. I know I already did that during training camp.

The Brown Brothers are going to be Beast!! Always want to add Terrel Lewis to this group of D’Lineman of the Future!!

Ben Sko has been good, & called it in training camp.Then again last week Kendal Blanton is another standout that is finally putting it together.So who knows what today brings.I just know the future is bright as well.

Heck Blanton had a couple of great catches vs Bucs last week. The TD and the comeback sideline catch. So why not Benny in this game?! I'm looking for all contributors to come up with something big. Everyone needs to step up.

I’m wondering about surprises ?

Ernest Brown & Gerald Henderson could both be on the game day roster ? Then again I don’t ever know until I see it posted here basically.

Was thoroughly disappointed in that pass that hit his hands in the end zone and bounced off, that block was doodoo on Bosa to lol. That said he’s been a pleasure to watch.

Stafford hit him in a bad spot...HIS HANDS!!! :laugh1:

On a serious note...it looked like he lost where the ball was in flight. He was looking over his left shoulder.

I think the excitement over Skow is proportional... most everyone I see is excited about the development and contributions of a guy who is a 7th rounder. A rookie finding diverse ways to contribute to wins.
I think he could be a hybrid TE/WR with his blocking abilities.

He just needs to track passes better when the ball is in the air.

He got turned around on that pass.

I still have high hopes for him.

Guy is a 7th round pick who in his rookie year has already been a huge asset on special teams (one of our few true special teams aces despite his gaffe in Bucs game) and has flashed on offense at times while surrounded by some mistakes and drops.

Is what it is but he's shown enough talent to stick around for a while. Like I said in a thread about him earlier this season, I see him as a decent WR4 and a great special teams player who'll have a nice but not spectacular NFL career. That's a 7th round gem in my book.

One play shouldn't define the young lad. Kupp drops big time balls occasionally too, Ramsey dropped a couple would be INTs this game. Shit happens.

After the success of Weddle coming-out of retirement, maybe the Rams are getting REALLY creative.

His Earnest Brown suggestion is also out-of-left-field.

Yeah he's a stud on teams. Slam dunk pick on that alone. We feel him out there as a gunner every game.

It's all right. I feel that he'll get another chance to right things, and he's arguably our best special teamer not named Hekker or Gay.

If you think Skrow is good wait until you see Tutu Atwell next year. And Jacob Harris. And our 2022 3rd round WR we're looking at now. South Carolina has a 5'2 135lb electric weapon just waiting to be unleashed in LA.

Sorry I cant help myself. Its good to balance all the elation from yesterday with a little pain. Keeps us all grounded and human. :laugh2:
