Higbee was brutal. Poona has to be a lot better otherwise they run all over you. Garrett grade surprised me, a bit better than I thought. I posted a vid with all his snaps. A non factor in the pass rush and whiie Williams stonewalled him the run game, he still set the edge well, and funneled the plays back inside, but nobody was in the hole to meet the runner.

Checks out with what I saw. Middle of our dline just got murdered all game for some reason.

Steve Avila had a nice game. Love the wipeouts when Jackson had an edge guy engaged Avila looking for work just knocks the snot out of the rusher and on one play slammed them into the ground. Love his attitude.
 
Some of those grades especially the O and the OL are way too high.
Agreed, plus please as God as my judge if any coach calls a QB sneak for the Rams moving forward with Stafford at QB, someone needs to punch them where they will always remember, never to call that play again!

In a long list of bad calls/ideas from McVay this week that was the icing on the cake. How incredibly stupid on 4th down with those 2 RB studs we have.

That play doesn't matter to me. So we woulda lost 27-14. A loss is a loss. They were clearly not the better team out there.

Drove me crazy, turn around hand the damn ball to Kyren Williams because he great at the goal line. One of my other Ram brothers theorized that McVay remembered the fumble by Kyren and went with the sneak.
 
I thought there was some good run blocking going on and that should have been the center of our offense in the game.

Agreed, one of the biggest criticisms all of us have with McVay is, he does not stick with the run long enough. Stafford was off, should just kept running the ball and what happened to the play action bootlegs?
