That’s not going to stop him from losing his footing and missing tackles.
I didn't get to see the whole game due to shitty streaming connection, but I saw him make a few real good tackles when he was up at the LOS. He makes them much more often when up front.

In the last two games Mr. Tutu Atwell has been targeted 3 times. He has caught all three passes for 85 yards and 1 touchdown. Let us hope that McVay can scheme up some more targets as the young man has shown he is ready to assume his role as a viable member of the offense going forward.

I saw yesterday in Baltimore D. Jackson catch a deep bomb. The Ravens still lost.The negative was why Tutu.then yesterday’s headline of OBJ.

I noticed in the box score Atwell was 2 of 2 & loved his TD catch to open up the game. Saw it a few times in training camp.

My conclusion is The Rams will get through this.Mcvay showed frustration about the all-time changing off O’Line & injuries.

I remember the one season with SJ39 it seemed like the worst & Jake Long.Have to agree with Mcvay..This is worse.His quote though after that is,we get to look at a lot of them. I call that a blessing & a priority. Also Austin Blythe & Kromer were taken way too lightly ? Maybe it was just dumb luck over time.

The time was 2019 & Mcvay F’ Up big time with cutting Sullivan & relieing on Brian Allen & Joseph Noteboom ? The HOPE is strong training camp & better FoUNDATION like Andrew Whitworth Brought. He was The Rams Savior!

Whitworth went out on Top!! The Rams & Raheem Morris will be back. lol

The defense played the same way that they have played the entire year.

They let Mahomes go up and down the field at will with the soft zone shit and then stiffened in the red zone.

I will say Morris red zone defense is one of the best but he has Ramsey Wagner and Donald in there.

His before the red zone defense just takes away the ability of those players.

If he played man press with Ramsey the majority of the game and inserted Rochelle instead of Kendrick Cobie instead of Long and Yeast/Lake instead of Rapp, we could play a tighter defense. I don't know why Morris keeps playing Rapp Long and Kendrick. Plus he needs to give up on Lewis and play Hoecht more.
I agree they have been playing the same way all year, but that wasn't my comment. I commented on last week where they bent but broke in the 4th, with also a much lesser talented opponent.

That is SUCH BS!!!! How does ANYONE know that as JACK?

Ramsey on Kelce ? COME ON MAN!! What a 30 yard TD? Just saying.

Tell Mcvay that. I will say Ernest Jones hears your point in letting teams go up & down the field.

Want to talk about a silver lining he came in to start the Superbowl & as much as I liked Troy Reeder on keeping healthy a lone. Without EJ making that 4th down stop & other plays that game who knows that result either.
I’m also glad that all those OBJ fans didn’t get there way,or franchise The Future for this season.This just makes it easy for Sean Mcvay & Les Snead do some SERIOUS House Cleaning!!

I don’t know about all that? Taylor Rapp needs to go no matter what.

The NINER’s DC gets a HC job before Raheem.so they will get comp picks.

I think from a question Morris had last year about a HC job? His future might be in the college game where he can build his own legacy & name for himself.

For all The Haters,I will say I don’t know.He could be back?
I saw his interview this week & seemed like he was not himself.
The question is the effect this season on Sean Mcvay & his vision on TEAM (WE). He is driven to be successful & will challenge everybody.

Funny about Sean Mcvay looking like he went to universal Studios for Thanksgiving in his Startrek shirt.

Ramsey was 7 yards off the line of scrimmage and was backing up when he was man against Kelce

Cmon - at least don't stretch the truth

When Ramsey was man up against the WR AT the line of scrimmage - Mahomes ALWAYS looked the other way

NOT ONCE did Ramsey's guy get targeted when he was man up at the line of scrimmage

So get off your high horse calling my comments BS

No hate there

Yeah I agree that Rapp should always be close to the line of scrimmage but I think Scott is a much better tackler and should be in the box instead of Rapp and use Yeast or Lake as the Deep Safety

But if forced to play Rapp - always always always keep him within 5 yards of the line of scrimmage - he is actually pretty good there

I just don't understand McVay's usage of Tutu

TD Kelce baby!! Where was Ramsey ? He looked good on that play. Couldn’t careless where he was.

TD Kelce on Ramsey. Look at it anyway you want. That’s the way I see it.

I look at it the way I look at Morris defense.

Too soft for Ramsey to stay with the guy.

Plus what kind of tackle was it by Kendricks and where was Rapp on the play.

It was a stupid defensive alignment by Morris that allowed Kelce to score on that play.

I hope owners see how Morris kept KC out of the end zone when they got inside the 20 and sign him to be head coach

I want Morris gone. I have had enough of his defense this year.

If he doesn't have Weddle and Von Miller last year, we do not win the super bowl with his defense. Those guys made plays.

Morris has to have the best players for his defense to work.

Your points are well taken & solid. I have to give those views
total thumbs up.

Seeing Rapp in coverage & coming up on a play late way to many times.

He is a tough player & not afraid. J Joyner was better deep,which is strange to me. Rapp seems like his size plays a part,but it shows how good if cover skills he has.

Yeast & Lake will get their shot.Long & Scott also become Free Agents with Rapp. IMO The Rams are looking for Comp Picks there ?

I agree with Eric Weedle over Taylor Rapp. At least Morris picked up the phone & made that happen.


IMO Raheem goes into the college game. He wants stability & a better family life & future?

That is just my thoughts. I also think he had the Vikings job? Maybe not,but the way it went down helped Kevin O’Connell .

I hear the frustration & understand it.Mcvay knows what he is doing & not afraid of change as we all can see from all his coaching staff around the NFL.

Maybe Cohen goes with him? What about Carrnerry. There is plenty of blame this season.

Weird to say it & nobody really knows it,but Zac Kromer is gone?

Wonder about Zac Robinson’s future? This season has been different,but if Raheem Morris is the guy Mcvay wants out it will happen.

To think him being The Rams DC didn’t help The Rams win the Superbowl? I will beg to differ. His future? I think The Rams have developed some nice pieces & Bobby Wagner ,E.Jones really do a good job.

I might have gone too far with my comment. I am just tired of seeing him go soft zone 95% in a game where QBs can get rid of the ball under 2.38 seconds on average.

What? No one got a season ending injury yesterday? No one on the OL to miss playing time? Or is that shoe still to drop?

The A'Shawn Robinson Injury ......caused DC to insert & start #93 Marquise Copeland with #92 Jonah Williams taking #93 main reserve position. We even saw #95 Bobby Brown getting some snaps in the 4th quarter. It was positive to see these 3 young DL'ers getting some real game experience due to most part the injury & future loss of Robinson to FA'cy in March. #91 Greg Gaines is my top priority if Rams 2023 UFA's. The DL would not hold up if they see both Robinson & Gaines depart.

The newest OLB/ER......meet DC Morris's new guy # 97 Mike Hoecht. I saw some excellent effort from #97 in his first start opposite Floyd. #97 & #99 provided a nice right-side duo. Lewis did see some snaps but he lost the outside edge several times & Mike Hoecht did a far better job of containment. It was obvious when observing he was schooled heavily to ensure just that, to protect & seal his outside edge.

DC Morris might have found something special here! It bares watching in the next 6 games of this season to see if Hoecht can be developed from DL'er to OLB'er. #52 Terrel Lewis must not be doing what DC Morris wants as a starter.

Note: Terell Lewis's time as a present or future starting OLB for the Rams has ended. No better than a reserve from this point on. Another 2nd day Snead/McVay 2022 non-producing draft selection....Evans, Long, Henderson, Rapp, Burgess, Jefferson, Akers, Atwell & Bruss.
