I don't know McVay's reason for this move, but Henderson seemed to be a decent contributor and could even line up and catch passes. I know he made a critical catch in the super bowl. But I'm a little surprised unless this was a cost saving move to bring in another top player, maybe for next season??
Well if you can’t be the best, be the best worst you can be!
Btw I expect Samples will end up fired before the season's over. I think he has completely failed in connecting the RB room to the staff and his inability to handle the personalities was part of all this drama. Not exempting the backs as I think they share that too, but you can't have that level of disruption from one room on a contender without that coach paying for it.
Possibly, but name a position group that hasn't failed on this team.
One person's name I never hear mentioned with the avalanche of injuries this year is Reggie Scott. He received subdued praise the past few years for keeping a talented, veteran roster healthy. What happened this year, Reggie?

Henderson's reaction is pretty concerning.
What is going on in that locker room?
Is it the fact that the RBs are an afterthought in McVay's offense?
Are they asked to do too much blocking or something?
I dont get it.

henderson is probably happy to jump off this train wreck earlier than expected. the rams weren't gonna bring him back, going nowhere this season, weren't using him, better to part ways now.

Hendo and Cam both wanted more touches... that much we know.
When we had a healthy Gurley it was all him and an avg RB to give him a rest on a couple plays. I think that's what McVay wants but he's thinking too much. I got 3 pretty good guys let's platoon them but wait I only run 20 times a game anyway so that's 7 carries each...
And the RBs are like we can't gain momentum we get subbed out before we can get into a groove. How does that make sense. A RB is working on defenders gaining confidence and seeing the defense and making adjustments. Then he's pulled.
When I used to play basketball ( I know diff sport) and get pulled I hated it; I used to play all game in practice and several games in a row when winning until I was dripping. The competitiveness is too high to have to be taken out. I wanted to keep going. Then there goes the confidence.

Yup that's our (McVay's) excuse. The only reason we can even fathom him still on the team. That one and "he plays multiple positions." Yeah but all at an astounding 35 PFF grade!

to Hollins: Get pressure or you're gone.
Hollins: no pressures
Rams: buh-bye!

Well his run blocking is an astounding 45 or so with his pass blocking at an even better 15 for the year
I'm not sure we are, but I really don't know who is. Panthers?
The fact that we have lost to other struggling teams, Bucs, Cardinals, Saints, hasn't helped.
The injuries are the main reason, but there seems little fight at times.
The list ought to include Sony Michel who was the workhorse down the stretch and then basically ignored in the SB and not even a thought as a FA. CJ Anderson saw a similar strange exit....
I find it somewhat amusing that a guy who never had more than 600 yards rushing and was hurt all the time gets released
and its a sign of the apocalypse.
Jourdan posted that before the season even started they were likely not going to have hendo back and that was kyrens job.
Now that the season is tanked they are going to use kyren.
