Appears that our Corners will be the thing Thursday Night.

One might think that Sam Shields & NRC could start with safety Lamarcus Joyner replacing NRC @ the Nickle. Marqui Christian & JJ III should be able to hold down the safety posts.

The Viks have 3 outstanding wide outs & 2 good TE's so it should be a good trial for Wade's D.

Basically our starting secondary without our off season pick ups.

I actually feel okay. DLine will step up on the Vikes weak Oline.

Looks like we need another returner. Get a PR who will catch the ball. And tell our KR to take a freaking knee.

This - I'll take it at the 25 coming off a kickoff all day every day.

Ball security is job 1, 2, 3, and 4 on special teams.

Rams kick returners need to stay in end zone. Offense is too good. He’d giys bring it out to 15-20 everutine and there are often return penalties.

Kick offs will not be the problem its the Punt Return that is going to get tricky. RB Malcolm Brown is solid as they come in ball control.

I'm perfectly happy with someone who fair catches it each and every time. And if you go that route - you can rush 10 and get after the punter.

My theory is that McVay encourages the returners to bring the ball out of the end zone because he’s confident the offense is plenty good to overcome bad field position making the potential reward far better than the risk

They will need a punt returner, tough game for injuries today I would sign a veteran kicker too, but they probably won't, but i would sign Cairo Santos.

I think the worthy Free Agent kickers out there are waiting for something more than a few game job.

Part of the problem I believe.

Bailey would have never taken the job.

Just increase the points scored. I have yet te feeling that we maxed out scoring wise, in a game...We ran the ball to control the clock which was smart, but if we had needed to, Goff could have thrown the ball for more than 400 yards this game, easily

True, but having the opportunity to kick for several weeks and with the way things are going with kickers, getting a job, they would job at the chance....Dan Bailey was different, but somebody like Cairo Santos would be an upgrade IMHO and I believe he would come in.
