Jarquez Hunter is inactive again? I guess Ronnie Rivers will be Kyren's back up. Was really hoping to see Hunter get some carries. And I always thought Deshawn Johnson made plays whenever he is in there... surprised he is inactive every single week.

I’m at Wembley Stadium and if this game ends up being a kicking game I think the Rams are toast.

The Jags kicker never missed a pre-game FG attempt and Karty missed about 4 or 5.

I can’t see the Rams going the bye week without trying a new kicker.

Definitely word is out RAms like to Target Adams in red zone.

So yea, I would not target him this week.

You know what would be cool? If we had a big defensive takeaway game. Sacks, Ints for TD's, or even a special teams block.

Minimize the need for 400 yards of offense. Since Puka isnt there for his obligatory 130 yards.

Yep, getting a couple of forced TO's from the D would be great for the offense.
But I recall a game where everyone knew the Rams were gonna throw it to Kupp, because OBJ went down in that game.
And they did just that, for the game winning drive in Super Bowl LVI.
 
My guess would be that Hunter needs to improve his pass protection if he hopes to be active for these games.

Didn’t see him on the injury report. Hmm. How bad is he doing that the Rams have to call up a RB from the PS?
What is really going on?

Bad drafting for a team with Superbowl aspirations. Could have gotten some qualify OL depth or some help at CB, instead, draft a 4th string RB that can't get a carry. Same could be said for Ferg. I'm saying this because we are in win now mode, not wait a few years mode. Hunter is one of the only RB's drafted in that range to not even have a single carry.

SO Mumpfield scores a TD when Ferguson is right next to him & it’s a BAD DRAFT??

Do you know anything about the backup RB ?? Blake Corum already took a few snaps in the FIRST SERIES!!

It’s POsTERS like this that PISS ME OFF ! First to go negative with any real FREAKING FACTS !!

Do you even know how solid THE RAMS O”LINE IS ?? I don’t want to find out,but IMO is The most Depth The Rams have had Since Mcvay became The RAMS HC !!!

As far as CB - Once again,I won’t name names,but look at the OLD JAG that is STARTING for THE RAMS!!

Go back & LOOK at The BALITIMORE GAME !! How many POINTS did they SCORE ?? Who made KEY PLAYS!!!

That's what I have been saying. Not that these guys will not be good eventually, but if you know you will not utilize a rookie RB in an "all in year", why draft him? You certainly could use a CB with size who would at least help on STs and situationally on D, especially since CBs often miss time here and there and you need 4 or 5 to get through a season.

Have to be able to protect Matthew. No Matthew means NO Super Bowl victory!!! Cannot allow your rookie RB to miss a block leading to a critical injury to your future Hall of Fame QB!

Some of you are too impatient. You normally start to see the rookie RBs get more exposure in the second half of the season. It is not just about pass protection alone: they also have get accustomed to the most complicated offensive scheme by a very exacting head coach and play caller.
