GAME DAY Rams vs Renters, Quick turnaround Pre-Season Game #3

[Tumak61]

Wow. Harbaugh playing Herbert in the last pre season game. That's interesting.

I’m talking about tonight’s game when I say “he’s barely averaging 5 yards per attempt”.

119 yards on 23 attempts is 5.2 YPA.

I misunderstood since you said he came into tonight's game with the lowest yards per attempt.

Simpson really seems to have the talent. It really shows in preseason. Will it show against D planning against him regular season? Probably not so much. He needs more time. But I love what he has done.

I would think he would look just as good if not better playing behind our starting offensive line with Williams running the ball and our two starting wide receiver studs.

Im calling it.

If the rams hold on to Connors he will be the rams future starting RB. He has the potential to be the Cooper kupp in the backfield

A more physical Danny Woodhead is what I see.

Ty is going to be QB3 for the entirety of the season. Which isn’t a bad thing. It’s what should happen.

Maybe, I'm thinking it's Ty's by mid-season or sooner. Bennett in year three obviously has a headstart.
They both have the same amount of regular season of experience. Still wish we could have found a vet.

 

[RamFan58years]

Oh come on, he’s barely averaging 5 yards per attempt. He came into tonight with the lowest yards per attempt of any rookie QB this preseason. Why can’t people be honest about what’s actually happening on the field? I think he’s gonna be good but I don’t know how anyone could watch this preseason and think he is close to being game ready if called upon. 118 yards off 18 completions is not particularly good. Awesome play on the touchdown pass, he’s done well getting in and out of the huddle, shown good mobility….but he’s living off of boots and quick game vs backups and practice squad guys. Let’s pump the breaks.

OK - first...

then...

and finally...

I'm officially a Homer for Simpson.

I’d prefer Jimmy G myself but I’d still take Stetson over Ty for this season. Stetson’s last two preseason games where he got to play the entire first half have shown a lot more than Ty has this year. Not only in terms of production but the depth of the playbook as well.

Again, I think its more about not trusting the OL on straight dropbacks and deeper routes. That along with just being very vanilla.

With Ty out, who should I be watching in this game now?

I'm thinking about watching my pillow at this point.

Man DJ Uiagalelei was once thought of as a potential top 5 pick. I remember him coming in for an injured Trevor Lawrence at Clemson and their offense not missing a beat. He threw for 450 on the road against an undefeated Notre Dame team in his first ever start. And it was basically all downhill from there.

It depends on when in the season we're talking. Ty is significantly more talented than Stetson. Later in the year, if Ty has the offense down pat, I'm rolling with him.

 

[LARAMSinFeb.]

Rams broadcast is stellar tonight.

 

[RamFan58years]

Wow, number 81 looks like a HS player out there. One thing the Rams find are small receivers and big slow-ish TEs.

 

[CoachAllred]

TJ has a home for them

A little paint and a good cleaning and it's practically brand new.
Yes Mr realtor they'll take it.

 

[Snaz]

End of third and no commercials, wonder if the guy that did this fell asleep?

I mean the problem with that is Ty’s not going to get any reps as the third quarterback. I mean the backup QB hardly gets any reps. That’s why it’s such a unique position. When teams are deciding on a QB2, they aren’t necessarily picking whoever has the most talent. They are picking someone who can go 6 weeks without getting any meaningful reps in practice, and still be able to come in and steer the ship if called upon. That’s why I’d prefer Jimmy. But it’s also why I think Stetson is better suited than Ty for this season. It’s going to be a year in the classroom and film room for him.
