They have to be committed early to making NO pay for heavy boxes, and they can’t give up that mentality if it doesn’t work a time or two. I think Legette will have to be good. The Rams made a mistake on that Tmac touchdown when the single high safety covered Legette instead of Tmac. If that ball goes Legette’s way there is a much higher probability of failure; as a safety, you cover Tmac and rely on Legette to be a bonehead. I think the Saints players know better than the Rams who to shade coverage to no matter how much Bryce tries to look them off.
Did Bryce Young have a list of teams he wouldn’t play for? You are mad because he earned being a top college recruit and the top pick in the draft. So weird. Any “competitive hurdle” placed between a #1 overall pick and the starting job is a farce and everybody knows it. What you are talking about is the coach and team playing make believe just for appearances sake. The competitive hurdle already happened in putting out the college tape to be the #1 pick.
What is the point in comparing these 2 completely different QBs and situations? Oh yeah, just another opportunity to whine about Bryce Young.
I was just pointing to a stat that may have been part of the reason he was nominated. He had a bunch of elite stats and the only average one was passing yards. It’s not called the “most yards of the week award.” I get you want to argue because it’s something positive about Bryce Young, but jfc give it a rest.
I think the stats he’s nominated for are 3 TDs of 30+ yds, 2 on 4th down, 0 turnovers, 75% completion, 147 rating, etc. Unless “stats” is code for “400 yards”, his stats are certainly worthy of winning the award.
poo needs to be talked about more. It would be one thing without the phantom holding penalties on Evans and Sanders at just the right time to kill drives, but when they’re calling that poo on the Panthers and not calling anything on the Rams that’s just fugging blatant. Saw so many Rams players doing far worse than what Evans and Sanders got called for. And that Puka Nacua catch was 100% OPI dude shoved Jackson upfield during his route or that was probably another INT.
I think it helps that the next team is the Saints. If there’s any silver lining to that last game against the Saints, it’s that I think they’ll have plenty of motivation and take it seriously this time around.
