Rams DC Chris Shula says Emmanuel Forbes has 'looked really good'

Emmanuel Forbes’ tenure with the Washington Commodes ended after just a season and a half, a shockingly short stint with the team that drafted him 16th overall in 2023. Given his draft pedigree, there’s no doubt he has talent. However, it simply didn’t work out for him…

Emmanuel Forbes has a chance to make Rams debut vs. 49ers this week

Emmanuel Forbes has a chance to make his Rams debut on Thursday, especially if Cobie Durant is out with a lung injury

This game will be tough - we have a 2 game streak against them and their season hangs in the balance.

Yep and their season is on the line. They lose and they are toast. They are going to be a very desperate and hungry team. We gotta match that energy.

We need to Bracket Kittle or Jennings. Shut down one of their options. The rest of the WR's or RB's aren't world beaters but we need to minimize their options. If we just sit back in our soft zone they will eat our lunch.

Hopefully our guys on the Dline can get after it this game, or it's gonna be a long afternoon on defense. Our Dline also needs to be aware of their screen game. It's downright dangerous.

On offense, if McVay continues his creative play calling a couple of successful first drives can really dictate how the flow of the game goes and how clean we can keep Stafford.
I expect them to stack the box to shut down our run game, hopefully McVay doesn't buy into that bait and keeps the Dline honest with consistent running attempts. Because you can bet Rat face will learn from the first game and make his adjustments.

Huge loss for us. They need Forbes to contribute now.

Once again the Ram defense has to hold up and especially tackle well. When it come to the offense...the tandem of Williams and Corum have to run well and hard while securing the ball. The Rams really looked solid up front against the Bills and a repeat performance against the Niners with a win would be great. Pass protection is a must also...Niners got 7 sacks on the Bears.

A win naturally keeps the Rams in the division run but also would sweep the Niners for the year. They have a bad taste in their mouth from losing a SoFi earlier too.

This will be a physical game because both teams are trying to stay alive but I really think the Rams will pull it off. I like a close win like Rams 27- Niners 24.

I just saw the Insta page for the trip. I’m jealous, I’d be there if I heard about it earlier.

Please throw at Ja’Yir Brown if he is playing. He tackles poorly and his coverage ain’t great. Play designs need to put him in coverage when working zone.

If Bosa plays I would run at him....double team him and attack him physically in the run game until he taps out.
As for the defense....screen passes.
This D really struggles against screen passes and the Whiners are one of the better and more creative screen teams.
If the pass rush starts to generate pressure I see a steady diet of screens and that scares me.
The D needs to account for Kittle in a special way. A wrinkle in the coverage to help deal with Kittle.
This game is always a tough match up.
A short week there are no real practices, just walk throughs.
Jackson listed as questionable along with Limmer has me worried a bit.
Survive this game and enjoy a long week to prepare for the home stretch.
Best way to help the D....as always....possess the ball.

Purdy does very well vs zone.
He fairs much worse against man.
Do the Rams have the horses to run man consistently.....probably not.

Our Oline is the key If they continue to gel, they could stonewall these bastids. They only allowed 8 pressures and no sacks on Stafford vs Buffalo. Our last game vs them we were without Kupp and Puka. I believe our offense is about to carve them up. on TNF
