Me neither. Cam cant be 100%, to me this has the Gurley feel all over again. And this is a recipe for disaster too, because our OL looks horrible and specifically our pass blocking. Von Miller isn't even the best edge rusher Noteboom will be facing. We have Parsons and Burns and Chander Jones coming up in the next 4 weeks as well. If we can't run the ball and are forced to pass it non stop, this could be a weird season.

This guy has barely been on the field. Seems he gets hurt getting out of bed in the morning.

That’s one way to build chemistry with the other RBs… :wow2:
It gets worse. Florio just reported:

The Rams’ offensive line struggled in Thursday night’s loss to the Bills, and things aren’t getting any better.
Rams center Brian Allen will miss two to four weeks with a knee injury, head coach Sean McVay announced today.
Allen played every snap for the Rams’ offense on Thursday night, and it’s unclear when he suffered the injury.
With Allen out, starting right guard Coleman Shelton will play center, and backup guard Tremayne Anchrum will start in Shelton’s place.
Rams left tackle Joe Noteboom is also dealing with a knee injury, but McVay said he expects Noteboom to play in Week Two.

Ouch!

I’d more readily accept a loss like that if we came out of it with no injuries - but this is terrible news

Our RB room is jinxed.
Our RB room is shit.

Akers on that pass pro decision where he lets Stafford get sacked makes me sick. He clearly bailed out there. I don't know what's up with him but he's not the same guy who was hungry and fully bought in.

Henderson ensures our offense is going to look like dogshit when he's the guy.

Williams can't even handle what, 5 carries? He couldn't have been in there much.

Go get a fucking RB Les. This room is shit.

You know I love your opinions, but this is one I disagree with. Henderson has starter attributes IMO… but it is fair to question if he has starter durability.

His hands are great. He runs good RB routes. As a runner he is fairly shifty and has surprising/decent power. He has strong hands, doesn’t fumble. His protections are solid. There is a lot to like about his game.

I don’t know if I’d call it shit… but… The RB depth was a concern of mine out of camp. I like Funk, but not as a running back.

It feels like, at some point, we might need to do something here. The good news we are probably okay for now… but as teams start to feel their way options might come available.

Once again my man... When has this offense ever had a great day when he was the defacto back. I can't recall one.

He gets his yards. But the offense never looks good with him in there. He was the reason we had to go get Michel. The guy was not making this offense go.

Gurley made it go many times. But after he was out of form we had to go get Anderson in 2018 to get it going. Last season we had to go get Michel. Why didn't Henderson take care of that role? Because he can't.

I admit I might have developed a stronger opinion on the guy than he deserves. But I have zero faith in him.

Is this a joke? Zero touches and he’s already in the trainer’s room?
I didn’t even know he got in!

I'm no draft guru and so can't criticize the draft strategy too much.... But it seems to me that if we are going to be a pass heavy offense, then we need an elite LT who's durable, and we need nimble OG's and a savvy Center. The Center also has to be big enough to handle a nose tackle. Do we have that? As for running the ball, I just want a durable, 3 down back who can make the first tackler miss. Do we have that?

I realize Cam bailed on that block when Edwards got beat and Stafford got crushed but, in my estimation, I believe Cam may have thought (for a split second) he could be a "check down" receiver. I just don't believe he bailed because he didn't want to block.
