Did anyone hear the real story on Ramsey?

[Montanaramfan]

I've heard reports that he was at the parade but I never saw any clips of him. As great as he is, he did have a few rough plays in the playoffs but that can be expected when you're covering the other teams #1 receiver for a large part of the game. We all saw what happened on the long TD by the Bengals and you can't fault him for that. Other than that, I think he gave up only three catches. I hate to think he skipped the parade and celebration based on what many think was his underperformance in the playoffs. Has anyone heard anything remotely close to the truth?

Haven’t heard or read anything. Did read this a day ago….top in the league for the season.

The truth can't be that he was at the parade? Side note he was working at his second job.

Pretty sure he was there for some (supposedly), but it looks like him and Derwin James had a event for a foundation called The Safety Corner that Ramsey, James are starting to help kids in LA on Wednesday.

I didn't really see him after the game or at any of the post-game celebrations.

It's just strange because a guy with his reputation as a big mouth, you would expect for him to be screaming from the rooftops right now, but there just seems to be radio silence. Especially when compared with McVay, Stafford, big Whit, Von, and even notoriously quiet guys like AD and Cooper Kupp.

Hope he's not pouting, but I think he's grown up enough for that not to be the case.

 

[Jacobarch]

I bet hes at home pouting. I love Ramsey obviously, but he does have a rather large ego.

I think this may be a Non-story Story.

There may be nothing to explain or read-into here.

As die-hard fans, we know what the Rams' top players look like but can we identify all of them out of uniform?

I can't. On the Rams' home site, there are dozens of parade photos taken by Obo Okoronkwo; and I can't identify a number of players with absolute certainty. We know Ramsey, so we know he was not there. I am guessing there were 6-10 other players not there for a variety of benign reasons. However, we don't know, realize of care.

Unless there's some specific report by a credible Rams source (like Jourdan Rodrigue), I'm thinking there's nothing to see here.

Just an opinion.

 

[blackbart]

His Twitter account is active.

I don’t think there is a problem, his on field persona is not who he is. He is not going to be out front drunk acting crazy.

I think it is definitely alarming not seeing Ramsey. Since he got onto the Rams he has been in the spotlight more than almost anyone and is one of the biggest talkers. Not seeing him much at all at any celebration shows there is definitely something going on with him. I am sure he had a lot of haters barking at him for a few missed plays this post season. Hopefully he uses this is as fuel for nexts years repeat season.

I think people are assuming a lot of things for no reason. Enjoy the championship offseason.

Unless you read a report from a reliable Rams' source, I would not be too concerned.

If you visit the Rams' Team site, there's hundreds of photos from the Rams' post-game celebration. Ramsey is prominent in many photos. He's hugging Stafford on the field, he's posing with Weddle and the Lombardi Trophy, he's holding his child and hugging his partner, he's sitting in the confetti with half-a-dozen family members, he's mugging for the camera with teammates in the locker-room.

Also see where Ramsey has been active on twitter; and posted the following:
"SUPER BOWL CHAMPSGod is great ALL GLORY TO GOD THANK YOU JESUS
… YALL CANT SAY ABOUT MY CAREER NOW BTW God bless"

Maybe too much to drink?

None of this parade stuff bothers or alarms me. It's just more noise

However, does Ramsey need his inner ear checked? Multiple times this year and especially going one-on-one in the playoffs his balance and body control looked plain bad to me. Very top heavy. I understand that he doesn't have blazing speed and there are many WR's who can beat him straightaway, but none of that has anything to do with body control when he's right there with his man and the ball is incoming.

Did he play at a different weight or body type this season?

 

[wolfdogg]

People, what are we doing feeding a media hype-type non story. Nothing to see here except that Ramsey sacrificed some of the Celebration to donate his time to a non profit he is part of.

I think Ramsey looked sloppy and I think there's a reason for that. The majority of the season he's been playing that star role and not much man to man or press man. It is a perishable skill as they say.

 

[Merlin]

I am guessing he is pissed at how he played in the SB. He does have a large ego but that is what will keep him playing at a high level when he is so well paid.

So maybe a tough SB game means he busts his ass this offseason to come back next year with more domination.

Ramsey has been getting some crap for his play during the SB.

Being in position to intercept an underthrown pass while the defender yanks on your facemask throwing you forward while your head does a 180 should not even be considered.

He had two other big plays by him of which turned into only three points.

Found this video that was a more fair analysis of how well Ramsey played Chase.

Ramsey at the start of the 4th...
"All right y'all. If we pull this shit out, I'ma stay quiet for a month!"

Good point with the star position, and that's what i'm alluding to in terms of maybe Raheem directed him and the trainers to change his body a bit in preparation for that role. Ramsey is already a big physical corner, but i could see the rationale of the trainers wanting him to build more bulk up top to accommodate mixing it up inside like a LB.

He looked better outside a year ago, although he was rarely tested.

Hmmm, IDK but maybe it's his technique to body up against receiver to slow them down or look back for ball and not to get a PI call.
