Now that puca back trade tutu no reason for him to just stand on sideline … if need be just put x smith in try and get some help for defense
I’m surprised McVay doesn’t mix him in while Kupp and Puka are on the field. I feel like that’d be lethal!

Yeah I was saying at the game to at least bring him in to stretch the field. Throwing it to him or not the threat is there the safeties have to respect the speed.

The Rams sure have mastered the art of Playing Possum demonstrated by the handling of Puka’s injury status
Why I laugh when fans get pissed at the Rams because they don't tell them every intimate detail of everything that happens in between the games. These guys, especially McVay, are masters at saying a lot but not giving any meaningful information. This was a masterclass in subterfuge slapping Puka into the game at the last second.

X.Smith? or Tutu? either one is great. Both have value in stretching the field, but I think Tutu is just more experienced & reliable than X. I really think we need to keep BOTH. No reason to trade Tutu at this point. He's gotten us deep a number of times, via DPI's + receptions. Matt just underthrew that ball a bit or Tutu would've had a TD.
If anyone, we trade D.Rob--don't kill me. He's a reliable receiver, but is replaceable with JW & T.Johnson. And he just got 2 tuddies last night, his value is good at the moment. Just not sure we'd get much for him.

If I’m tutu I’m asking for a trade no way I go from main target and d Rob couldn’t get open but soon as kupp and puca come back I’m the odd man out that’s just crazy and it’s crazy cause Mcvay did it last year

The same DRob that had two touchdowns last night and four tds in five games last year when Kupp/Puka played together? Ya good luck with that Tutu lol

I agree -- DRob is a good complimentary WR, but needs to play next to a WR1 so he can get singled up.
But we already got 2 other guys like him on the roster.
Tutu? he's a different animal & has a role on this team to get deep & draw the 4th Q DPI's. He's good at this. Plus, it's not like MS doesn't otherwise target him -- didn't he have a nice catch on the right side early in the game? He's not who'd I'd package in a trade right now.

What part of Robinson playing against the best of a teams CB's as a number 3 WR do you not understand? Everybody has a role, regardless if they like it are not they are what they are.

Robinson is a fantastic 3rd WR. Tutu is a decent 4th string WR, Maybe a 3rd if Robinson needs blow.

This isn't hard to realize and our coaching staff apparently does.

Flores caught off guard. Very conservative calling the game. Rams O is rolling.
He tried some BS early and it didn't go well. Flores isn't stupid, he knew Kupp & Nacua changed the equation. When they were out Stafford was a sitting duck. But yesterday the Rams were ready to deliver the pain.

Just goes to show how critical weapons are for that pass game. They give you answers for shit and change the schematic approach by defenses.

And if Puka or Kupp go down again? I say it depends on what the front office thinks about their prospects of contending.

If they feel they can be a contender, keep everyone. A 7th round-pick swap is not really going to move the needle much in a future draft. It's better to have the depth. But if the season is over, it doesn't hurt to start selling pieces you won't need in the future.

But he wasn’t all the time that’s just not true….

And what exactly would you be willing to give up for Atwell if you were an opposing GM?

TuTu was a six inch under thrown pass away from adding an awesome touchdown in that game. McVay was cycling through WR groups like shifts in hockey.

We are deep.

TuTu stays.

Keep playing possum though.

Field the calls.
