Eric Weddle unretiring to play for Rams.

[UKram]

Unexpected news of the week

To be fair I doubt he sniffs much of the field … apart from maybe spec teams we need some buddy there for that as well and the well is drying up at safety

Aeneas Williams could probably do a better job than Weddle.

I thought this had to be a headline out of the Onion or Babylon Bee.

Joke is on me (and maybe us come Mon night).

 

[RamFanWA]

Looks like we are going for the entire Ravens backfield....

 

[ReekofRams]

Weddle?! I didn’t know that the NFL allowed Jazzy battery powered wheelchairs on the field during a game.

 

[RamDino]

Thank God. I loved Weddle in his prime but his last year with the Rams was pathetic

 

[Psycho_X]

Hopefully Weddle doesn't show up looking like Andrew Luck did the other day at the NCAA championship.

So it was a practice squad signing afterall.

Let's hope they keep him there.

 

[OregonRamsFan]

Well ok, then. PS makes more sense.

 

[TXRams86]

Get him in to help coach up the young guys and hope he never sees a snap for us this post season.

 

[TXRams86]

I honestly dislike this guy so much, especially after the whole Baltimore secret fiasco. We must be really really desperate.

I'll never be able to forgive him for this bullshit. Not to mention he basically robbed us of money the way he played his last here. Dude was all sorts of suck.

Eric Weddle is probably going to play as that SS/ILB combination player. At this point, he probably has LB speed but his strength has always been his ability to quickly read plays, and generally, he is a good tackler.

Since Morris plays a passive zone his lack of speed won't be noticed, i.e. Morris' scheme is wheelchair compatible.

Blake countess probably has around 4.6 speed at his age so he definitely can play in a zone scheme.

At this point in the season, they are grabbing vets who can get up to speed quickly having played in a variety of schemes. Both Countess and Weddle fit that requirement as both having played for Wade Phillips who also played a man/zone coverage scheme.

They don't. It's an ice cream powered wheelchair with an opponent dampener of at least five yards.

Blake Countess is a familiar name. No Coty Sensabaugh?

Where is he now and how is he doing? Last time I heard from him, he was in the intensive care unit recovering from WR2 and WR3 burns.

Too bad Steven Parker isn't available. Would have been great, Wade should never have cut him.

I think what we are seeing is the wear and tear and freak injuries of a longer season. If they are healthy we aren’t discussing any of this.

Safety has been a weak spot all year
