Like when the ball bounced off Tutu’s hands today?
Or when Mumphfield ran the wrong route last week, leading to an interception?
Ugh! Puka hurt again

It means if you are riding Puka like a ten cent pony eventually he will wear out.
In week 5 against Buffalo this year, Stafford targeted Puka 24 times, with Adams on the field. Just did a search. This guy didn't once complain about that.
Stafford has been over-relying on his top receiver since his Detroit days. You're absolutely right that at least part of the problem is Stafford's tendency to lock onto one guy. Someone wanting to have an honest conversation would acknowledge that.
Yes.. and we all know that's only because he only wanted to throw to Calvin Johnson, right?
Yes.. Stafford does overly focus on Puka.. absolutely a thing.
AND
The Rams currently have no other viable WR target.
In 2012.. Calvin Johnson had his career year..
The other WRs on that team were:
Titus Young
Ryan Broyles
Nate Burleson only played 6 games
Kris Durham
More than one thing can be true.. and it's absolutely true that outside of Puka and Davante, the WR room is absolutely not up to par.
So.. let's have an honest conversation.
I've also pointed out that not only is he getting targeted more per game this year..
He's getting targeted waaaay too much on those shallow targets where he takes a ton of hits.
It's many factors.. and they're all right in front of us.
Stafford also had multiple years evenly distributing the ball between players like golden tate, marvin jones. Kenny golladay, etc
I avoid the game day thread as it is just a toxic bitch fest win or lose. Not sure why some people think we need to read the same shit in every thread. How many different ways do you have to tell us you dont think Stafford or Mcvay know what they are doing? Youre obviously much smarter than McVay, thats why youre on the internet not the sideline.
This is just a total misunderstanding of how passing offenses operate. When we send 4 guys into a route, it’s not like Stafford is just waiting to see which one pops open. At least 2 of the receivers running routes are running to create space. They are not actually part of Stafford’s progression. They are being used to draw other defenders away from an area on the field. Schlereth talked about it on the broadcast today. They are running “for the love of the game” routes to create openings for Puka. It’s not a “pure progression” offense.
You should avoid it more, because your can't handle any kind of disagreement without being histrionic.
I love Stafford and McVay. They're not perfect. No one is.
You're obviously not very smart, if this is your conclusion.
You're obviously not very smart because... you don't have to read my comments and you don't have to respond.
So.. ask yourself.. what's making you so irritated that you need to tell someone else what they're thinking? Or how they feel?
I think it has more to do with playcalls / coverages and limited options he trusts. Even in cooper kupps heydey, when he had woods.. he had some games.. when they got OBJ, he had some big games, etc
You bring absolutely nothing to this board but controversy and insults
Complete nonsense.
I've got a long posting history with a shit ton of zero controversy and no insults.
It's "controversial" when people have a beef with something they disagree with and I back it up with a real argument.
When I have people throwing nonsense at me.. calling me a troll.. asking if I'm even a Rams fan.. because they just can't handle a take? That's where the problem is.
This is a sad post on your part.
I just dont need to be told 40 times what your opinion is, I understand the 1st time.
And I noticed he was all over the Rams GDT in the first half then went quiet in the 2nd half. The guy just likes to bitch and he continues to bitch about the same thing. And its something we all pretty much agree on.
I mean on draft night most of us wanted WR to be addressed in the first 3 rds and were disappointed. So not sure what his point is? Are we supposed to go make a trade for the Rams so they can get a WR? What does he want from us?
It's tiresome.
