Dunbar has the best hands of any back on the team. He doesn't offer Gurley's speed and explosiveness after the catch, but he does offer a few more options as a route runner. He's also a good pass blocker. Going into the season those were two areas that it seemed the Rams really needed. With Gurley's passing game improvements, it seems like Dunbar's main roles will be to give Gurley an occasional break on 3rd down and to offer a different look as a receiver. He used to play special teams. I'm not sure if that will still be the case.
Rams might need Dunbar this week going up against the poor pass defense of the Texans. Rams made not need to run or pound the ball with Gurley & Brown but just throw it.
Hope you are not sleeping on the Giants.
And a former Ram DB (as well as HC) would beg to differ on the quality of their pass defense.
I am sure that JJ would love to prove himself against his former teammates & the Ram team who let him depart. I expect a season best performance from JJ.
Current weather forecast is for 60 degrees in NY on Sunday. Not too bad.I do not expect an easy game in the cold damp NE this weekend. I would hope that we can slip by without injuries but the way the Seattle is improving a loss to the G men might be more severe than most all think.
Trade deadline today? or tomorrow? I'd be looking for his name on the news.
Davis will get cut and probably get a PS spot.Why not. I don't see much need for him. Brown has stepped up and Gurley is catching the ball.
Davis will get cut and probably get a PS spot.
Dunbar injury was a blessing for him to get a 53 spot
