Watching Akers these last few games, it sure seems like he's getting back to his rookie season ability. If the issues during his hiatus are behind him, I would have no problem with him being the feature back next season. I still want a decent vet to back him up along with Williams though. Him and Jefferson could make a good contribution in the last year of their rookie deals. A healthy Stafford could get Jefferson the ball better than Baker did.
I think Cam justified what happened early in the season whatever it was. I think it is also obvious the new RB coach was a disaster and most likely the root cause of the problems in that position group.
They need to commit resources to the Oline during this off-season. They have played better over the last month but it was a total shit-show so that ain’t saying much.
Fixing that room goes a long way toward keeping Stafford healthy and having a better running game.
Finding a big power guy in the draft would be a welcome addition but I think Cam has plenty of power if the Oline is performing.

What does that mean to the Rams members in here posting that a 320-plus pound LT Joe Noteboom will be ready to go when the 2023 season begins?
I am wishfully hoping for a 2023 mid-season return to the team from PUP after the bye at the earliest.

Yes, it was said to be a complete Achilles tear resulting in surgery.
Yeah, expecting him back next season looks like a long shot.
There were a few times where he looked totally lost and he'd run right into the defensive line instead of towards the daylight.
But I can't say he's done that lately.
Could be addition by subtraction without Noteboom in the left tackle slot.
But I would still like to have him around as a backup if financially feasible.
I love that on Cam's long run.. he finished by driving into Diggs instead of stepping out of bounds.
Made more plays in the pass game as well.

I could have sworn it was a knee injury and not an Achilles.
If so, he is done for next year too
I am very happy for Cam. Must feel great to see all that hard work realized, even if it did come through a lot of BS to get there.
That said we need a secondary option to carry the load if he misses time. Big need for us. Not a change of pace, pass-catchy type either. A guy who can grind out tough yards for us in Akers' absence. So much of the BS from this season was an outgrowth of that simple truth.
