OBJ mentioned in his presser that he's learning the offense, which insinuates to me that he's got a way to go on the terminology and all that. Wasn't sure how fluent he was in WCO which is the fucking worst phonetically. But at this point it doesn't matter they gotta get him ready at least with the basic route concepts so he's in the right spot to prevent turnovers.

Good thing is OBJ is a man out there blocking. That's been a nice thing to see, I didn't realize that part of his game was so good. Just figured he was a typical diva but there's hope for this guy.
Every system has its own terminology, but OBJ did play in a WCO under Ben McAdoo with the Giants.

I know he's not a WR but at some point does Hopkins ever get in a game? At some point we run out of people who know the playbook intimately and they are forced to play him just for a body? A supposed receiving TE seems like something we could really use in the passing game at this point in time if we're forced out of 11 personnel due to injuries.
Saved me the typing. Lol

This is the second time Benny Skow has been hurt, in this his rookie year. I have high hopes for this kid. You hate to see him miss out on this valuable experience, but I think he could be a great player next year, even in a limited role Maybe not an all-pro, but a "smart" receiver who uses his body, plays very physical, and gets first downs and touchdowns at critical times.

We will miss him most on special teams. He's the only one I've seen make plays on coverage

Akers and Koski were pretty slippery in preseason. Both showed solid route running. Both seem like the heady types that can execute the playbook, so let’s get em rollin.


+1 from what I saw in the preaseaon.

Hope Benny Skow comes back soon. I like his size and willingness to block.

Well Koski is the next WR up.In training camp Ben Sko was looking good & then he messed up his arm.
Koski was making a bunch of plays so he’ll be ready. The difference Imo is just size 2 inches & 20 lbs. He makes a good target though.
Wolford was with him from the preseason in 2020.He knows The Rams system well.

Time to see these “TEs” make some plays. Kupp, Van J, & OBJ is a solid WR line up. The TEs need to step up and put there stamp on this offense…even if it’s a tramp stamp….
