Les Snead: 'I doubt we see' Todd Gurley

[nighttrain]

in the preseason!

Sean McVay tried something bold last year and didn’t play the Los Angeles Rams’ starters for a single snap during the preseason – with a few exceptions. Other teams have scaled back certain players’ reps, but what McVay did was more or less unprecedented.

Considering the Rams were able to avoid any preseason injuries and made it all the way to the Super Bowl, it’s safe to say it worked out pretty well. The Rams have been dropping hints for a while now that the plan is going to be somewhat similar in 2019.

No suprise really. This will be the new norm especially if the season extends to 18 games.

Yep. we'll get the Gurley speculation until Game one of the regular season..:eek:

There went my preseason expectations.:rimshot:

We will see just as much of Gurley this preseason as we did last preseason.

That should put an end to all this knee injury BS.

Let’s trade him!

"Bortles starting over Goff......"

This inevitable storyline will annoy me, but... I'm legit excited to have an athletic backup QB who belongs in the NFL. Mannion seems like a cool dude, but I felt like I was watching a mummy whenever he was taking snaps. So achingly slow at everything, and no real upside.

(Oops. It's a Gurley thread. sorry)
