By the way, that Malcom Brown Touchdown...

[tklongball]

Was a thing of beauty. It was amazing that he could get his right hip over the tacker, and then get is right foot back down in a way that he could still get to the endzone. Well done Mr. Brown!

In case anyone missed it.

He has really developed into a great asset and a complete back.
He saved Goff from a couple of blitzes as well.

Ballerina feet..hes been good this season when given a chance

I think I was more amazed with this play by Brown than the recent Gurley sideline toe tap. Should be play of the week.

 

[Psycho_X]

Was the best play of the game. Seems like there'd be some great opportunities to put him and Gurley both on the field while using Gurley as the decoy a couple times a game.

Think we could get a 2nd rounder for him before next years draft? John Kelly sure looked every bit as good but of course those weren't real bullets.

I was a John Kelly homer in preseason. but then Brown straight up killed defenders when blocking. Until Kelly becomes a great blocker, no way would I trust Kelly in place of Brown. I think we could ride Brown if Gurley was injured this season.....He's a vicious down hill runner, which I love!

When I saw it live, all I could think of is the damage my 45 year old ankles would sustain trying to do that.

 

[CGI_Ram]

That was INSANE.

Brown has some skills, that was a thing of beauty. I don't know if we lose much with him as a pass catcher.

Good topic @tklongball

I'd love to see Malcolm used more. The series of downs after we got the turnover would have been perfect. What a touchdown it was -- on first viewing there was no way I thought he made it. Wow.

 

[Merlin]

I've always loved Malcolm's running style, he's a bit of a throwback type. But he and this staff deserve a lot of credit in developing his passing game elements, the dude has some solid hands on him and has improved greatly as more than just a handoff option.

And yeah that play he made was great. Had me hootin and hollerin that's for sure.

I understand our personnel and the reasons why we run so much 11-personnel.

But I agree, there should be some really good opportunities for our offense using two back sets, or 21-personnel with our TEs.

Can’t really complain given the productivity of our offense. And I’m not one to critique McGenius.

...I just wonder how much more we can confuse defenses...

 

[LA_vision]

I could watch that replay all day. We really need to get Brown more touch and game time. Dude has skill. Hell, have Brown as RB and Gurley as WR on some packages.

And last season too.

Most plays you couldn't even tell the ball carrier was Malcolm Brown because he looked like Gurley.

MB will only be a RFA in March 2019. Thus the Rams have a very good chance of having MB returning to the 2019 Ram team @ a "Bargain Price". This will give Snead a real confortable situation in our RB unit should anything happen to our MVP Todd Gurley. The future Ram RB unit looks to be the very best in the NFL IMO. Guley/ Brown/ Davis & Kelley !

Now well into week #10, Gurley might be given some additional rest during games by the insertion of MB & other our RB's thus to insure Gurley remains fresh & ready for the playoffs. Having MB playing @ a high level is one of the positives among the mounting negatives ongoing with the Rams defense @ this time.I just wonder why we do not see him more often being used in some of those screens downfield?

Good call @BonifayRam

Seems like MB has been getting a full series in each of the last 2 or 3 games and all play calls are available...screen game, runs, play action pass pro.

I was wondering why Kelly was on the inactive list so much with Brown getting all of the backup reps, but between plays like that shown above and the blocking you mentioned, it's pretty damned clear why Brown is ensconsed as our #2.

 

[Ram65]

Malcom Brown has stepped up his game. Still like Gurley in the game but, MB has been running hard and getting yards with little drop off this year. Kelly looked like he could replace him with his preseason showing. Could be Kelly lit a fire under Malcom.
