Yup,
On Staffords INT... Oh brother Mumph was wide open and Stafford forced the ball to Nacua. I'm writing up my 10 observations while watching film. My Gawd stafford is not seeing the field.

There was the play where TUTU dropped the pass on 3rd and 2! Kyren was Wide open and could have got at least 10 and had the first down Easy!
I think he started reading the press clippings that said he was a football genius.
Yup.
If stupid, old me could connect the dots of Nacua overuse and potential injury, why was it so hard for McVay?

Well, Keenan Allen is out of the picture for us. He's headed to SF. Rams got a couple hours if they're gonna make a trade.
I heard it somewhere...cant remember where...plus some pic you can tellAnd you know how?

Puka dodged a bullet with his recent injury. But it was severe enough to make him think twice about playing again this season without a new contract.
I admire him for putting his body on the line all game, every game. But after this injury his agent will surely be giving him some hard truths.
Does puka play again this season?

Quite frankly, I am not sure. Will the Rams still be eligible for post season in 4 weeks? Also, with no contract extension, does Puka rush back? So many questions. Now I love Sean McVay, but if Puka does come back I hope McVay never uses him on a Jet Sweep again.
I am surprised that his agent is not being vocal about no deal considering the amount of workload he is getting. So I wouldn't be surprised if they have a deal nearly hammered out already. They might just need to dot some i's and cross some t's.
Puka is and always has been the easiest franchise tag decision in league history. His salary would be more, he's had injuries and off the field issues. So I'm not worried about the contract. This just makes that an easier decision.
As for recovery, what I can find online is that an MCL and PCL sprain usually takes 4-6 weeks. IR will make him miss 5 (including the bye), and I wonder if that's why it wasn't a guarantee that we would place him on IR (Sean said "likely to")....if it ends up being the lower end, he could in theory be ready against the Niners, whereas placing him on IR means he would have to miss that game.

I think he is back for the 9ers. Not 100 percent - but active anyway -
Looks like there is buzz already about that target date.

Man if he was back for SF that would be amazing.
