Rams will be without 1 starting corner against the Seahawks, Kayvon Webster ruptured his Achilles. Trumaine Johnson is in the concussion protocol as well so he's probably out next week too.

Hopefully the Seahawks will be without half their defensive line, so it may balance out.

If the Seahawks beat the Rams we can win the division, and then immediately bounce out of the playoffs when it turns out that Russell Wilson can't carry the entire team on his back.

That should be obvious. Most of the guys on his team are well over six feet tall, and trying to carry even one of them on his back would just be awkward as hell.

You could flip the teams and replace Russell Wilson with Todd Gurley and this statement would still be 100% true

Nah, Gurley's 6'1". He could carry most of his team without a problem.

Is it out for sure that they won't be? Out of the two, I thought Bennett's move was way more disgraceful. It certainly looked like a calculated attempt to injure a player during victory formation, which goes against literally all of the hot air the NFL is putting out about protecting players. That move was just disgusting. It looked retarded too, like a big old baby rolling around on his back lol. He really isn't getting even a one game for that?

e: wow yes I guess that's true? That's pretty foolish. If someone had been injured on that play, he probably would've gotten multiple games

If Gronk gets one game for attempted murder, I don't see Bennett getting suspended, especially for an upcoming game that is huge for division placement, and will probably be even more violent than this week's game.
It's been said time an again, but the NFL doesn't actually give a poo poo about player safety.

After what happen to Savage yesterday (I mean goddamn dude was having seizures and coughing blood) Yeah I mean it's been there before but goddamn at least be subtle and not full blown blatant.

Like they aren't even trying at this point at caring about player safety.

Which is, according to twitter, the Y motion, followed by the first play, if they don't like the coverage they see with the motion they can it and run the second play.

I really don’t understand why teams still use terminology this obtuse. It’s not like they actually run the five trillion technically different plays that level of granularity makes possible. Everyone basically uses the same basic concepts. Really seems like an erhardt perkins terminology system is more efficient and effective.

If nothing else everyone gets the same 40 seconds.

I mean really, how many different plays does any team actually run over a season? A hundred? I doubt it’s even that high.

It's harder on the QB, but easier on everyone else, basically. Every player gets told exactly what they're supposed to do, so less chance of "being on the wrong page" irt the playcall (still can gently caress up any post-snap adjustments, of course)

Plays like that in late-season, garbage-time wins are worth giving up the draft position. He's coming back next season knowing that the system works and wins games.

looks more like the tackle is slow getting there because he has to do a swim move around the guards rear end

Watch it again. He's only "late" because Foster reads the snap so perfectly that he's moving before everyone else, and the impact brings him to a dead stop right in Ellington's path. Aaron Lynch certainly did his part by tossing the TE in the way, too.

Jul 25, 2012

59 probably made the more impressive play tbh, foster doesn't really do anything to impact the play. if he gets blocked then short of a hulk pancake block the tackle is only like a foot farther outside and the tight end is a 6 food wide hurdle directly in front of the back
