It's funny to see the LBs trying to cover him. Dude blows by them like it's nothing. Just needs to learn how to position to put his oversized ass between the DB and the ball when Stafford puts it on him.

It's wild to see a Rams TE creating that kind of separation. Everett was fast.. but just wasn't nearly as smooth.. and not as big.
I can see a future where he and Puka are the main characters in the pass game and the guys around them kind of rotate over the coming years.
Kinda like a old school NBA power forward box out move. Thats what we need to see from him.
Sad you don't see much power forward/center halfcourt stuff in the NBA anymore. It was my favorite part of the game but has become unwatchable IMO these days.
Its nice to see all that crying about Terrance not doing anything is over. The kid can dominate. I like how hard he tries even when the ball is not coming to him. He likes throwing guys around.
You can see he is a dude. The way he catches the ball away from his body, his body control, and his ability to run and run after the catch. He will be a very good TE and a big play TE at that.
I don't think anyone doubted him. It was more complaining about McVay's reluctance to at least have him run a few plays a game early on.

I think his hands still need work, clap attacks the ball too much in college and it shows how he's attacking the ball now. Would have liked him to show more strength on the pass breakup in the 49ers game too.
That being said, it already looks like he's put some work in on that and his blocking so things pointing up on an already impressive freshman effort!

I am happy he is coming along, still not on the field often when we are in 13 sets around the goal line, but that is to be expected with the other 3 options.
has to improve on his catch percentage, 5 rec on 11 targets, but he is playing and learning. His ability to get open isn't in question, but I would love to see him haul in some of those missed targets.
He has made some tough catches, too.
He should only improve through the 2nd half of the season, and his usage should help keep the rook fresh into the postseason

The 13 personnel was effective in the run game against the whiners, plus a 6' 4" tight end is a big target, and if they have wheels, watch out.
More on the 13 personnel it starts with Ferguson then goes to Parkinson then all 3 blocking for a big TD run. TD run looks to run right behind all 3 TE then bounces inside. It's fucking beautiful to see!

Love this one too. Look at the TE clearing the DB's out deep for Adams underneath. We gout ourselves a TE boys and girls.

Yeah, it's pretty awesome. We have been running behind 13 a bit (McVay's new toy), not sure the league is ready for it yet.
All 4 TE's doing their thing, 18 creating matchup problems, and 84, 87 & 89 clearing out around the goal line and situationally.
All 4 of these guys have been good.
I think the often maligned Parkinson has been great, having only missed on 2 targets.
Fergz will only get better
5 catches through the first 9 and likely 15-20 through the remaining 8 regular-season games
The funny thing is that the often aligned Parkinson has been getting the most snaps. Maybe TE1 based on that now.

I say just have fun doing it. I'm doing shitty in the ROD one yet my other 3 I'm in I'm no worse than 3rd place so far. Go figure.

You got one of the best WR duos. A QB playing lights out.
A great 1-2 at RB, and a TE group with maybe the deepest group
of starting caliber talent in the league.
And out of that TE group I think I am seeing a game changer come to life.
Very few LB's if any can cover him. Ferg runs like a gazelle for a guy his size.
This kid could become a Phoenix rising at the perfect time
McVay is finding more ways to use his talent.
Rams Offense is going to be a bigger beast than it already is.

The only way to stop this O is to get to Stafford. Hope the Oline and scheme protect him. If so the Rams win.
