Excellent observation on her part. He didn’t just have a really good game, he put on a clinic as to why he’s headed to the HOF.

1) the back shoulder fade was a thing of beauty. Adams and rogers threw that all day in GB.
2) his overall release is consistent. If you want to be a good WR, you cannot easily be taken off your route or stuck at the LOS.
3) maybe he has lost a step, but his overall body control is still very good and he has excellent hands.

Most impressive game as a Ram. Needed it.
 
Great game!!! The offense really got going after the first series...and the defense balled out! Young and McDuffie were standouts!!!
What a game for Adams!!! He really ate lunch out there and reminded folks the HE GOT SKILLS!!!

On a serious note, it shows why you need to play your depth guys more...something that has bugged me with McVay. Fergie, Mumpfield, Tutu, Smith, etc. Did we even see Daniels get a snap???

Trust me...we're gonna need those guys in Denver...up in that thin air. The Rams need to get there and get adjusted...BIG GAME COMING!!!

Daniels was inactive, just like Puka and Whittington. And as Adams explained post game, the Rams have a play caller who likes to run with the hot hand.......Adams and Ferguson (to a lesser degree) were the hot hands last night. Of course a shout out to our RB tandem who looked real good.........164 yards on 24 carries (6.8 per). The freaking team averaged 8 yards per play (481 yards on 60 plays)!!!!

Take away the 3 kneel downs and I bet it is real close to 9 yards a play.

Offense played very well... after they kicked off that remaining rust.

Defense still has me concerned - the score only tells a part of the story:
1] They still look undisciplined (coaching)
2] The ended up going against Winston who hasn't been relevant in years and showed that.
Had Dart played the entire game, I think the Rams still win - but the score is much closer.

Onto DEN. To me, a much better test than the Giants without Dart.

Each week, we'll learn more about the 2026-2027 Rams. Hopefully Nacua is back this week.
 
The best part of this game to me was the OL.
Dominating performance running the ball.
I am hoping against hope that McVay will keep the lesson this time that the O is more dynamic when the ball is spread around.
Mixing in a couple different TEs and getting balls to other WRs whether its Mumpsfield, Smith or Tutu it gives teams another level to prepare for.
The Rams were sloppy with ball security but the OL was totally dominant.
Nice to see against a good, young D group on the Giants.
You can see the potential and multiple way to use Ferguson. He just needs to get his hands dialed in. I am glad McVay went back to him after a bad drop on that third down.
The defense, of course, looked much better, especially in coverage.
The jury is still out on special teams....Xavier looked shaky and fatso missed a kick he is there to make and a bad punt.
Another big challenge awaits going to Denver....at least we are going when the weather should be fine.
 
I've taught myself to avoid "feelings" about the game and just watch. I've learned my feelings aren't as accurate as I'd like them to be. :laugh4:
Feelings, nothing more than feelings
Trying to forget my feelings of love
Teardrops rolling down on my face
Trying to forget my feelings of love

[Chorus]
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it
I wish I've never met you, girl
You'll never come again
Feelings, whoa, oh, oh, feelings
Whoa, oh, oh, feel it again in my arms

[Verse 2]
Feelings, feelings like I've never lost you
And feelings like I've never have you again in my heart

[Chorus]
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it
I wish I've never met you, girl
You'll never come again

[Verse 2]
Feelings, feelings like I've never lost you
And feelings like I've never have you again in my life

Neither side played very well in week 1. We can probably accept it was the travel, 15 hour flight at the last minute, etc. etc.

The offense has been together for 2 years now. Same OL. Same QB, RBs, WRs, TEs, etc. I think expecting them to jell quickly wasn't a stretch.
The defense?
Lots of new pieces. A DC still finding what is the best way to approach it. It's not a stretch to think it may take 3 or 4 weeks to actually become comfortable with the design that is best.

I'm not going to jump to any conclusions about Shula. He was pretty good the last 2 years. There's no reason to believe with more talent to work with, he'd be worse.

I asked Google AI when was the last time a Ram had more than 195 yards receiving. Short answer: Cooper Kupp, 220 yards in 2019 vs Bengals. What was funny is that the AI actually showed me its internal thinking on this for some reason:

The last time a Los Angeles Rams receiver had more than 195 yards receiving was just last night, September 21, 2026, when Davante Adams recorded 195 receiving yards against the New York Giants. Wait, the user asked for more than 195 yards, or did Adams have exactly 195? Adams had 195 yards. Let's check Cooper Kupp's 2021 games to see when a Ram had more than 195 yards before that. Let's search Cooper Kupp 2021 game log for >195 yards. [1]

Prior to Davante Adams' 195-yard performance on September 21, 2026, the last Los Angeles Rams receiver to cross that threshold in a single game was Cooper Kupp, who had 183 receiving yards on January 23, 2022 (and 220+ a few times, let's see if he had >195 in 2021). Wait, did Kupp have more than 195 yards in any 2021 game? Let's check Kupp's max game in 2021: 163 vs IND, 156 vs DET, 183 vs TB in playoffs? No, 183 vs TB in Divisional Round on Jan 23, 2022. Let's see if any regular season game was higher: his season high was 163 yards in regular season 2021. So January 23, 2022 in the playoffs was the last time with >195 yards (183 is not >195). Wait, did anyone have more than 195? Let's check if Kupp or anyone had >195 in 2021 or earlier. Cooper Kupp's career high game? Let's check. [1, 2, 3]

The last time a Los Angeles Rams receiver had more than 195 yards receiving prior to Davante Adams' 195-yard game on September 21, 2026, was on October 27, 2019, when Cooper Kupp posted 220 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Cincinnati Bengals. [1, 2, 3]
