I watched this last night. Watch Donald on the last play, he picks up the center and moved him out of the way. Absolutely insane.
That was actually five-time Pro Bowl guard Joel Bitonio. One of the very best in the NFL.

Bitonio was 2nd Team All Pro for three seasons (2018-2020), and has been 1st Team All Pro the past two years.

IMO, the main issue the Rams have had with the 49ers has involved poor tackling with LBs playing poorly and defensive backs making business decisions from time to time

This is it 100%.

Plus they don't beat blocks on defense and on offense the screen blocking is woeful and easily beaten for negative yardage. It's a matter of want. You need to want it more than the whiners and for some reason the Rams don't want it more for large stretches of the games.

Even in the nfc championship game the Rams started hot then tapered off in the middle qtrs before picking it back up in the 4th qtr. I've yet to see them keep the intensity up for a full game against those fucks.

When I watched that live the first thing I thought is JJ needs to recognize/react as last man in a position of help to stop that. I thought JJ played well but that should be him.
It's not a last-man-to-help scenario ... on that side, it's quarters so it's match man. the RCB has the #1 guy ... the next guy would be Johnson's ... but the question is if they should have passed off the #1 or if Spoon was supposed to be locked.

Either way, one of the two, has the final #2 receiver vertical, in this case it's a RB and it's a wheel ... but the same rules apply.

My best guess is miscommunication but Spoon looked like he was locked on the #1 so Johnson should have probably stayed home ... but it could be other way around. Spook should have passed the #1 recer to Johnson and he stays home for any vertical route.

Yes, definite miscommunication and in that case assignments are off and help if you can. It is a live to fight another day scenario. I am agreeing but also adjusting on the fly in this case where all systems are crash

I get it, but there is no way for anyone to get there---tyhe motion and balanced formation (2x2 with RB behind QB--some cal that "Detroit"

The motion by the original #2 screwed things up ... Johnson may have though Spoon was going to pass of the #1 receiver or he should have matched with the #2 (the RB on wheel) and blew it.

it was quarters match man... so in nutshell two guys took the same guy

Rams put Donald in position to be singled blocked---Kobie gets the double team
