Despite him playing for the Ram's I love the Cooper Kupp story.

In a league where everyone seems to about the measurables here is a guy that runs 4.6, only had a 31" VJ and a 116" Broad but is just elite at the things important to actually playing WR. Smart, elite route runner, elite hands.

Same reasons I've always been a big fan of Adam Thielen.

Bills were closer to balance with Allen’s runs - 26/31 passes 24 runs

rams were 18 runs to 29/41…passes

Not sure replacing Von Miller with a diminishing returns Bobby Wagner was a wise move. He looked slow out there and the edge rusher replacing Von isnt as good.
Wagner has slowed each of the last 2-3 seasons. Von can still get to the QB. Rams got thoroughly manhandled. I will bet big money on them next week. McVay HATES to lose. Unlike KK, who says it’s more important to him to be a better person than a HC.

Am I the only one that thinks the reason Von Miller did well last night was because he went against these guys in practice and knows their weaknesses.

I really don't think he is headed for some dominant season just because he had one good game against a player he is familar with, and an offense he might have a real good idea on how to anticipate what is coming.

I don't think Von Miller is much better than Chandler Jones at this point - and remember he started last year out with 5 sacks too, and then did nothing for the rest of the season.

Nah was because their O line sucked. The whole D line feasted.

Jordan Phillips even had 2 sacks, where the hell was he the 2 years he played for us? On the sideline nursing injuries, go figure.
When he wasn't injured the Cardinals were busy trying to fit a square peg in a round hole with Phillips. Sticking him in a 3/4 alignment when his forte is playing in a 4/3 alignment is contributed to why he sucked in AZ.

Shocking. Another attempt for Keim to prove he’s the smartest man in the room.
