third straight game with a touchdown after having seven
touchdowns total
in his entire tenure with the Browns. He's got three in
the last three games, and
having to account for him, having to worry about him,
having to pay attention to him. Even though that was a fairly
simple little play there for the touchdown. His presence,
makes it easier for some of these other guys van Jefferson
and Cooper cup with his huge.
Huge night and and you know Beckham's numbers aren't off
the charts,
but but there are enough to make a difference for
the offense. Yes, no doubt about it.
And yeah, you see the Tweet here from Justin Jefferson obj
was not the problem. Hopefully I'll see that. Yeah. Well, well
listen, so we did look like Justin Jefferson is not going
to end up on the Browns and now he won't leave his
later, buddy. Oh, yeah, right.
I mean
either way, I mean, yes, what we saw last night 0 obj is
still a threat. I mean, he's still a threat. He's still
a very gifted individual at the wide receiver position,
you know, and yeah you talked about like
the The touchdown pretty easy play damn. The guy was playing
inside to and expecting. You know, the slant route. He was
Brian Griese. Did a good job of breaking
it down. But Odell's a special route Runner and
I like you, you know,
the numbers don't go. Whoa, but the numbers were good
and the caches were at Big moments of the football game
and I think he's still in the process of learning the offense
to
when they get to the point where they could start. Now,
feeding him, some Those plays that Cooper cup always gets.
Wow. Do I think it's going to open up? I think last night was
to me a point where I went. Oh, obj's comfortable Stafford.
Looks comfortable throwing to him
and it looks like he's getting a hold of this offense.
And to me that means watch out because Stafford if he's
continued to get healthy here, you know, he's gonna be
throwing strikes, all over the field and obj as we saw last
night, one-on-one can still get open against anybody in
football.
And one thing we're kind of starting to take for granted
and we barely mentioned his name. We've showed a few
highlights Cooper cup. So it's unreal, quietly, career-high,
13 catches
123 yards. I crunched the numbers
based upon where he currently is with over 1,400 receiving
yards. Now that extra game and I remember when they went to
the extra game for this year. One of the talking points was
how many single season records are going to be Danger, grave,
or otherwise of falling with that extra game. Well
Calvin Johnson the single-season, receiving yard
record of 1964 right now, and I think it's fair to talk about
on Pace. When you only got four games left, right Cooper Cup on
Pace
for 1947,
just 17 yards, below the single-season, receiving
yardage record, and no one has ever had 2000 receiving yards
in a single. Season and you know the Rams going to be
conscious of that. They're going to be aware that there's
a little Sizzle on top of
the substance. And that's going to be a factor down
the stretch. I think getting not that they need to try even
harder to get Cooper cup. The ball. It just kind of naturally
happens. Yeah, but they're going to become aware of
the possibility that
Cooper cup may end up being the
the single most productive receiver from a yardage
standpoint. And if I'll history, definitely, I mean
mcveigh's and I love to have that notch on his belt. Let me
stab her to like Until he's gonna go. Damn, look at me. I'm
the guy that throws the both
of these guys that Calvin Johnson. And he's gonna be
like, all right, let's go get it. It'll say something about
me too.
Hey, one thing I
I had moments last night where I went man. I feel like they're
overworked in the guy like I really do and I think that's
where obj could come into and to favor a little bit to take
a little pressure off them at times, but
it's remarkable.
It's a little bit Mike. I mean, again, it's the same coaching
tree, but what Lafleur McVeigh Shanahan. All show
is the ability to feature their stars.
And that's where they're great. I mean the 49ers Debo Samuel
George Kettle. I mean, come on the whole game plan seems like
just get them the ball in a creative. Way. We watch every
week. We go. Well, we don't really know if the Green Bay
really hasn't. Legit. Number two, receiver. They just got
a bunch of other guys
doesn't really matter.
They drop all these place or Davante. Adams, if they get
one-on-one, they just go, he's better than your guy. Our
quarterback to throw a strike. And Rams and McVeigh. They got
the same thing with Cooper Cub. They do
they're going to make you defend it
and change your game plan
to a point where they're just going to keep going to the well
until you change. And now they have you compromise somewhere
else and they'll start to strike their. But if it ain't
broke, don't fix it. And I love that aspect that they
feature a guy like that and make the defense adjust off of
that. You got to have something great. And that's great and
they abuse it until you do something crazy. And it's just
going to make In other parts of their offense, great
off of it.
Just imagine how many other receivers out there poo. Had
you have to have a high degree of confidence in yourself or
self confidence in yourself. As the case may be
to succeed at any level in the NFL. Even if you're just barely
clinging onto a roster spot, but you know think about what
a guy like DK Metcalfe
fall. When he's watching right, Rams off watching any of these
offenses, where as you say, they come up with creative ways
to let their Stars be Stars.
And it is d.k. Metcalf. Wondering. What do I gotta do?
What do I gotta do to get, get a ball in that fourth quarter?
How do I get some of that? Yeah, and and and, and that
could, that's the little thing that,
you know, maybe puts a chip on a guy shorter or a stick up his
butt going into the week of practice, because he's, you
know, thinking to himself. What the hell he's jealous. He's
mad. The other guys are doing it
and it's not just jealous. It's like, you know, I
I can do that. I'm not being used to my capacity. Why not
get to do that? I can do the same thing. Thing I can help
everybody. Why being held back. I can do what Cooper cup does.
I can do what Debo Samuel does. Yeah, why
don't I get to do that? It can create real problem. That's
a percents. Why when you have a great player the obligation is
to let him play great. Yes. Yeah, I mean, Nina, what's
the point of invest in money and you know,
draft picks? And those things if you're not going to
capitalize on the player itself, once he gets on your
football team, you know, we discussed that a lot, right?
You look at great team.
When you go, whoop, they usually
utilize their greatest assets, to the greatest degree,
to give them the best chance of success.
We look at teams that kind of mess up and do stupid things.
We always go. Well, they're really good right here, but
they can't seem to ever, you know, take advantage of that.
Why is that?
And I do think that's part of,
you know, good coaching
and understanding that. And
you know, I think we saw that a little bit from the Rams on
both sides of the ball last night. They put their guys on
Both sides really whether it was the receivers
or Raheem Morris doing a great job of finding little ways to
get Aaron Donald one-on-one with either one of those
guards, for the Arizona Cardinals. It was a mismatch.
It was a mismatch.
I mean again, you know the stats don't even quantify when
Aaron Donald did on that side of the ball, you know, that he
had a few holding penalties that were big during the game
that doesn't go on the stat sheet, but he
you know, F the play up
and so that was what was cool to see and I think we saw
a little bit again, the potential to Rams that we liked early in
the year where we went. Whoo. Well, and when they play good,
it looks real good.
And last night was one of those nights for sure.
