Sure makes the Blake Corum pick look GENIUS. Kyren ran 96% of the running plays in 2023 - Not sustainable. This situation just shows how on top of it the Rams leadership are.

[@jeffreylytle1563]

I am with Travis on Blake C. Kyren had foot issues last season!

[@michaelgeraghty3989]

LMU is less than 5 miles from SoFi,. It sits on a bluff only 1 mile from the ocean, so the weather is cooler than Thousand Oaks in the July -August training camp. Great choice.

[@amberrivera9684]

Rams 33 Lions 24 13-4 season record Super Bowl Champs!

[@JamicoHolmes]

Good deal Ramily ❤

[@JMichael-xc7uu]

Not sure as without Aaron Donald all those close wins in 2023 wont happen as much in 2024

[@amberrivera9684]

@@JMichael-xc7uu he’s gonna be missed but I have a feeling we will have a really good defensive. We did great this offseason in drafting and free agency addressing our needs in all areas!

[@therealjwil5]

Yeah! Yall remember the good ol days of Darrell Henderson and Cam Akers imposing their will on defenses. Get outta here Travis! We only saw success with Kyren (post Gurley) and Corum should be as good. Stafford was good WHEN Kyren was Healthy and not being focused on.

[@oldmanghost219]

Williams hurt? Not worry. #1 it is not at all bad #2 Rams have 2 backs ups that could be starters AND a great line. In fact... The Rams seem to have starting talent as back-ups for the whole offense. Might drop off a little bit but still strong. Can't wait to see those 30 point games.

[@junbug5595]

I love the drafting of Blake Corum the league is a two back league...injuries can happen any time can’t wait to see the new tandem on the field this season 💪🏼 Let’s Get It Rams

[@travesotom6890]

They didn’t have previous knowledge of this, just making stuff up, the Rams drafted another RB because they know KW can’t play every game so that’s why Corum was drafted 😂

[@Polyh3dron]

Let's hope Corum is as good as advertised.

[@anthonyboykinjr8784]

We will see the only thing I know is Kyren needs to prove he is capable of staying health. If you remember Gurley was 100x better then Kyren but where is he now. Health especially lower body health is so important for RBs. Gurley still makes me sad lol 😢

[@antman5628]

Blake corum szn jersey on da way ➡️📦🚛

[@osisai4155]

Don’t sleep on Evans, he is a beast.

[@BrianBeadle-qc2zb]

Kyren will be fine, we also have a great insurance policy with Blake Corum. It wasn’t long ago people were saying the same thing about Christian McCaffrey… He can’t stay healthy… NFL is rough, but he’ll be fine!!!

[@STAN-zd7oq]

It’s a brutal sport guys! Especially for someone his size! Don’t read into it , too much! You’re not on the coaching staff! Relax “

[@derwolfpack3599]

Travis is a drama queen. Any small problem, this guy sees the wheels coming off.

[@icaps93]

​@@derwolfpack3599 Travis is a Debbie downer....bro was so negative last offseason and thought we were gonna be a bad team

[@craigosterberg5045]

Go Rams

[@alexherrera1384]

Love Kyren, Blake will be bettter. This is a nice problem, when Kyren is healthy it will be the dynamic duo. Blake will be the number one sooner than later, and hopefully Kyren does not let any ego get in the way, it can be a healthy chip on the shoulder if team is the number one goal. Go Rams!!!

[@templehillsfunk]

Disagree. I think they are mirror images of each other.

[@JMichael-xc7uu]

I hate that we gave away all those draft picks and threw in Goff. We would of been a dynasty

[@daviddeaconjones924]

Hey Doug and Travis I have a question: How many 49ers does it take to change a light bulb😮

[@paololeveratto6821]

I got my masters at UCI so I liked it there. Anteaters

[@pmrossetti1]

We need a receiver and a tight end

[@ricddewbe54]

What team are you supporting? Glad Rams don't need Tight end and Receivers. Must be talking about the Chargers or something.

[@memoreno9]

Kyrens injury is no biggie.

[@conorlambert6035]

Yea he texted me last night. Said no biggie

[@bh7132]

The RAMS start to play Eminem "Guess Who's Back" in total confusion of Detroit Lions... Boom! Explosion! lights smoke from tunnel As Rams Team announced... AARON FREAKING DONALD BLASTS THROUGH TUNNEL ALL BIZNESS!

[@DrHawkingsChair]

McVay runs RBs into the ground unfortunately. AZ game last year, Kyren ran the ball 12x in a row. Opened Baltimore with 8 runs. We all know what happened to todd.

[@champfromla6162]

12 times in a row too much for you?

[@DrHawkingsChair]

@@champfromla6162 Considering he was put on IR after the game, and the rams struggled heavily w/out him, yes.

[@travesotom6890]

I heard Kyren injurie is a minor issue a ingrown toenail

[@craigosterberg5045]

Ramtania

[@guilhermecouto9477]

Just relax, thats why they draft Corum, Kyren have issues, we all know that, Corum Will be there times like this

[@jeffreylytle1563]

Just left 2 comments, but your poopy U tubeless service says "no comments yet"...

[@travesotom6890]

Negative Rodgers is back 😂

[@kamakazi339]

Kyren Williams injury is just like corum, absolutely nothing

[@igotjams1]

Trade him for a 7th round pick or cut him and turn the page

[@user-ei1fj8zj2e]

We need a 🐂 BULL AT R.B. ...These anorexic backs are ALWAYS INJURED!!! Can anyone say STEVEN JACKSON or Titans HENRY???

[@RogueKai04]

Blake corum stronger and faster than Kyren so we will see

[@joesanchez7921]

Very negative, use the news for clicks, wow.

[@edchandler6829]

Williams injured already doing nothing👎normal for him🤮

[@RogueKai04]

Hes not a bellcow so what do u expect😂

[@erichumber3831]

It takes 2 minutes of babble to start your damn show. Change or I stop cuz there are better sources

[@jeffreylytle1563]

I am with Travis on Blake C. Kyren had foot issues last season!
