Cam Akers had a monster game.

[Memento]

I think he had the most total yards of any rookie running back since the 60s? Something like that.

Anyway, he played extremely well, and deserves a ton of credit for being the bellcow we needed.

I'm hoping Henderson comes back (if he can), but Akers has been what we needed at the right time.

I had no idea! Too much scotch, Johnny Walker Black to be exact.

I'm loving this kid, he's looking like our future at RB for sure

 

[dang]

Cam-tastic!!

 

[TexasRam]

The weird thing is I don't remember that many rushing yards, I must have missed some big runs. I was stunned when i saw the final numbers. I remember the big catch and run but don't at all remember him running for 131.

 

[LA_Rams_#29]

He did... and Brown ran tough as well.. We need to keep hitting teams with more than one RB... when the running game is rolling, keep rolling.

Rams only had 333 total yards so yeah, Cam's 176 were about as MVPish as it gets today.

He's stronger than i thought he was going into the season.

23 is a badass. Did you guys notice that hit the DB tried to lay on him? Looked like the DB ran into a fence post man, he bounced and came up with a hurt shoulder. Akers is just so dense and powerful he almost always wins at contact and gets more yards.

Cam is the top prospect to replace primetime Todd Gurley. He needs to improve his pass blocking so he can play on critical 3rd downs when we will probably have to toss the rock, and Jared needs a solid pass-blocking RB. In due time Sean will allow Can to execute an RPO and shock the hell out of any defense not expecting it.

He dos evetyhing well. Patience, explosion, strength, shiftiness and hands. We need to ride him for a long playoff run

I am also pretty drunk (jd and Basil & Hayden's whiskey) but that dude is a bad mother fucker. I'm glad I don't remember that many rushing yards. It means consistency rather than big hits and misses.

 

[RhodyRams]

more than half of the teams scrimmage yards


Kudos to CA23

 

[RamsFanCK]

Akers is becoming the engine we needed. He is on fire and coming into his own at the right time! Monster game!

 

[Angry Ram]

Remember everyone freaking out over picking him in April???
