Rams have passed all tests thus far Authentic Dominique Easley Jersey , but they’ll have to ace one against Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay | OC RegisterSure, the Packers aren’t as stellar this year as they’ve been in years past. Sure,embarrassed. But my friends, if there’s one thing I’ve learned in all my years of watching football it’s this one simple fact: DO NOT EVER IN YOUR LIFE COUNT OUT AARON RODGERS.Greg Zuerlein makes strong return in 39-10 rout of 49ers | Los Angeles TimesIt’s so good to have Mr. Automatic back. I can go back to not having to worry about field goals and point after attempts. 5 crazy stats from Rams’ blowout win over 49ers | Rams WireWhat’s crazy is that they could narrow it down to just five.Robert Woods, the unsung hero of the Rams’ high-powered offense | PFFUnsung is a bit much I think, he’s vary much so sung among Rams fans such as the discerning readership here at Turf Show Times. I would however concede that you don’t hear his name so much among the sports media, he’s usually overshadowed by Todd Gurley, Aaron Donald Youth Marcus Peters Jersey , and Jared Goff, but this man is a huge part of the Rams’ offensive success and has been since we picked him up last season.49ers offensive line reacts to Aaron Donald’s dominance | Niners NationAaron Donald is the truth. And like the truth, Aaron Donald cannot be denied.Aaron Donald has ‘room for improvement’ after 4-sack game vs. 49ers | Rams WireI’m afraid for all the QBs who we still have to face this year.Rams’ Cory Littleton is a defensive standout who hasn’t forgotten his special-teams roots | OC RegisterCory Littleton. He’s high on the list of people who are going to get paid. Trust.Todd Gurley’s NFL MVP Case Is Only Getting Stronger | The RingerIf anyone is going to break the trend of QBs winning MVP, it’s going to be Todd Gurley In Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams RB Todd Gurley injured his ankle early on.He played through the injury logging 68 of the Rams’ 80 offensive snaps (85%), though his outputs were dramatically reduced on a night when the Rams’ offense was cranking. QB Jared Goff threw for 413 yards and four touchdowns on 49 attempts compared to Gurley’s mere 12 carries. The NFL’s non-QB touchdown leader didn’t see the end zone that night.The day after the game, Rams Head Coach Sean McVay said:Two weeks ago against the Chicago Bears, Rams fans were left screaming as the Rams’ offense was completely snuffed out by the Bears’ defense while Gurley was largely an afterthought. Goff threw for just 180 yards with no touchdowns and four interceptions while Gurley was handed the ball just 11 times.McVay spoke afterward on Gurley’s limited usage:And this last weekend against the Philadelphia Eagles http://www.ramsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-andrew-whitworth-jersey , Gurley injured his knee. RB Malcolm Brown, whom the Rams turned to against the Chiefs as the subject of McVay’s aforementioned praise, was unavailable having injured his clavicle against the Detroit Lions leaving him out for the remainder of the season.Again, the disparity was overwhelming. Goff threw the ball 53 times; Gurley had just 12 carries.Again, McVay was forced to allude to how much Gurley’s knee changed their approach:Since injuring his knee on Sunday, Gurley missed practice on Wednesday. And yesterday. And is expected to sit out again today.The wild card playoffs begin in two weeks, and the Rams’ best offensive weapon’s knee is in such a worrisome state that the training staff isn’t even willing to let him test it in practice.Consider that against the Chiefs and Eagles, Gurley suffered injuries mid-game that altered the course of McVay’s in-game strategy. Against the Bears just two weeks removed from coming out of the bye Womens Ramik Wilson Jersey , Gurley was apparently healthy and still wasn’t employed with much regularity.So how much is a Gurley at less than 100% going to be used in the last two weeks against the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers with the playoffs looming? How much sincerity is he going to be used with?And asking those questions toward the more important timeframe, how available will Gurley be in the playoffs? And how comfortable will McVay be in gameplanning around his availability?We don’t have much more than questions to go off of at this point, largely because the answers we’ve gotten this week have been so milquetoast.McVay conveniently happened to have not yet spoken to Sports Medicine and Performance Senior Director Reggie Scott before press availability yesterday so he didn’t have much of an update. Gurley himself was his usual concise self:The Rams’ signing of C.J. Anderson should indicate how sincerely concerned they are about the state of affairs at running back. For much of the season, the Rams had just Gurley and Brown as the active running backs on gameday. With Brown gone and reserve RB Justin Davis also ailing, the Rams clearly weren’t comfortable with just Gurley and rookie reserve RB John Kelly as the sole options. That lack of comfort in and of itself is telling.But it only tells us something about the current preparation. Not future execution.And perhaps that’s the real concern.The Rams’ 2018 season was always going to come down to their performance in the playoffs. And with just weeks to go before that referendum begins, their best offensive weapon isn’t 100%. He may not be close. And just how much that changes things starts this week.And that’s where Gurley’s focus is. For now.
