That sucks.

 

[thirteen28]

Bastiges.

And poor Dakota Allen ...

 

[RamFanWA]

well... it is not like anyone is going to steal a player off the dolphins practice squad... knowing nothing else, taking someone off the Rams PS would seem like a good bet.... But, that said -- BUMMER for us!

And poor Dakota Allen ...

Yeah, that pay raise puts him in a different tax bracket. I'm sure he hates that.

Yes, but is it worth it to have to play for the Raiders???

 

[hotanez]

Fuck I hate the Raiders

They saw him in pre-season and saw what we saw.

No worries, we have Bryce the Enforcer Hagar.

But actually I couldn't give two shits. I want a guard with experience ASAP before Goff gets destroyed.

Bummer.
Not a surprise though.

Think how much experience Demby is getting......
Hello?.....hello?......is this thing on?.....

Bummer. Think he'll stick so congrats to him and best of luck.

We need a RT that can handle speed. Most of the pressure and sacks are coming through Havenstein.
They are paying Rob a lot as a starter, but they need someone to handle speed off the edge. If that means demoting Havenstein so be it. The Aints destroyed him as did Garrett who was on Havenstein when he got the strip fumble/sack. Every DC on the Rams schedule has seen it 2 weeks in a row. It's all Rob is going to face the rest of the season. Every team is gong to put their fastest edge rusher on him.

Allen has been pretty good overall, but he's made some glaring mistakes in his protections. That is part of the price you pay by not playing him and Noteboom in pre-season. I think the interior will improve as the season goes on. But Havenstein is who he is right now. They need to give him TE support if it's obvious he's struggling out there. Or they need to play two RB's with Brown who is good in pass protection staying in to protect and backup that right side.

With the exception of the Aints game it hasn't been as bad as some here seem to think. They have options it's only a matter of if they want to implement them. No reason to panic, I'd be more concerned if some team poached Wolford, because he's the #2 QB from next season on. I don't think Bortles will stay another year.

Bummer. Still surprised he didnt make the 53 after the Kiser injury and how he'd flashed in pre-season...

Btw - anyone know how long Kiser's out for? Chance he contributes in the second half of the season?

He was placed on IR prior to the MR 53 being named so he can't come back this year.

Nobody can handle Cam Jordan and Myles Garrett, they're elite players. Who do you propose we could get at RT who would do any better?

He was handing off the DT, becaus of poor Demby, and was a 1/2 beat late to Garret....it wasn't because of ability that Garret beat him....Hav was good enough.....of course ya gotta know assignments to analyze
