Sony Michel Appreciation

[badnews]

That cutback for 7 yards was the play to decide this game.
What can I say about Sony Michel... he's been an absolute stud for us and deserves his own appreciation thread

 

[Kupped]

I appreciate him.
Started him in my fantasy playoffs.

 

[hotanez]

He's been fantastic when we give him a chance

 

[LA_vision]

Him and Akers combo?!

 

[badnews]

Tough, consistent, instinctive, runs behind his pads and gets positive yards in tight situations....

Sony is a lot like Cam Akers.

 

[TXRams86]

We're gonna have to lean on our run game heading into the playoffs to setup the play action passing game. Sony is the guy we can do that with. Go Rams!

 

[Ram65]

He fits in better than I thought we would. He makes the Rams tougher on offense.

 

[Dagonet]

He was a beast today for sure. Love it.

Not as elusive or explosive.. but more powerful and you can rely on him for positive yardage.

Agreed. He's not just like Cam.

 

[OldSchool]

He's been great and so glad McVay finally started feeding him.

Exactly!!! We lost some of our grit when we lost Woods. Sony has helped us there. He's shown an ability to carry us when it's tough going, the way Woody has always done for us.

and doesn't get injured every other game

He’s as good as it gets in the NFL when it comes to pass pro too. Kupp had a nice conversion in the 4th where Michel stoned a blitzer in the A gap. Textbook.

 

[ProGen]

Him and Akers combo?!

 

[HitStick]

I think we would have seen this earlier; however, for some reason McVay would abandon the run early all throughout November. It seems he’s learned that sticking with it and letting a tough back like Michel beat up on the defense has really helped this team establish themselves as a complete offense. Even with Stafford throwing 3 picks, we were able to come away with the win. Michel was huge.

 

[Classic Rams]

Sony.

The One and Only.

 

[London59]

He runs HARD! Brings a toughness to the team and physical attitude.

 

[Billy Baroo]

Amazing and much needed trade for us. A true stud. Hendo is Glass Joe and goes down far too easily.

Hendo is a change of pace back. nothing more. The NFL is the toughest football league and the RB position calls for the toughest players to handle that kind of pounding. Not every RB is cut out to be a bellcow. The change of pace guys have their place, and Hendo can make valuable contributions when he is restricted to his own capabilities. A healthy Cam and Sony are our feature backs with Hendo, Cooper, and Robert (when available) handling change of pace duties.
