This is where a team comes together. Matthew has been relying on Puka and now - hopefully for just a little while - he and McVay need to figure out a way to run this offense without him or Adams. We need to win for a while with defense and hope that Puka can be back before we are out of a playoff spot.

If Puka will be out more then a few games we are done. End of season.

Mcvay may need to brainstorm a new package like the 3RB set, to get us by if Puka is only out a game or two.

same people who moan for creative play calls in crucial moments moaning about a creative play call in a crucial moment lol
It isn't creative. It is right there with the bubble screen to puka every time we need a play. McVay is great at creating a new system or wrinkle to a system, but he can be very repetitive and predictable in his play calling. The play worked once earlier, so now that they have seen it lets do it again the other way.
 
He seemed in pretty high spirits after the game. I’m not sure the Rams would’ve made him available to the media if they thought it was something serious.
Yeah plus mcvay would have had a different demeanor after the game as well.

Guessing its not serious or else no way puka is doing an interview after the game.

No.. “you all” haven’t.

Maybe you have? If so.. this ain’t about you, is it?

Suggesting this isn’t about quality of secondary targets and is only about Stafford?

That would be the kind of bad-faith argument I’m talking about.
Did you complain about Kupp getting over 11 targets a game in 21' ? Kind of worked out though didn't it?

I am not saying this is the way it should be, nor that it's all on Stafford. However, Stafford tends to lean on one guy. Always has. History shows that with Kupp & Puka.

Adams is a HOFer, and he wasn't getting targeted nearly enough last year or this year until Puka was out. The game without Puka, Stafford goes to Adams repeatedly for a monster game in week 2. So there is definitely something there where he locks onto one guy.

OK we all admit you should eb Rams HC, McVay knows nothing compared to you. Can you stop bitching now?
 
Looking forward to bad-faith posters to come on and pretend over-usage didn’t make this sooooooooo much more likely.

Over usage? You mean like every other year of his career?

If Stafford would bother to look at other WRs the team would be so much better.

And don't get me started on the idiotic play call. Use ANYONE but Puka on that meaningless play.
But no.
 
Well, it always takes an injury to get to find out if the rookies can handle it. Reeder would probably still be starting instead of Speights if he didn't get injured. But hay Speights wasn't good enough....... until he played. Maybe we will get an answer to our assumptions.
We’ve had the injury.
Behind the injury we have nothing.

That’s the point.

lol…

Thanks for again making my point..

The Rams went out and signed Odell.

Because only one functional WR for 8-10 weeks is untenable.

Nope.. because I never said that.

But, please, show youre consistent and go through the game day thread and question everybody who questions any single play. Because they’re obviously smarter than McVay, right?
