The RAMS Forum

Really want to see a game where the Rams pound the rock with this one two punch at Running back. A good diet of these two can carry us far into the playoffs.

I can only imagine how much better we will be when Akers is healthy. I like what Michel has brought to the table and I think Henderson has a lot of talent as well, but when Cam returns to form we are going to have one heck of a 1, 2, 3 combination.

Have to think Sony signs elsewhere.

IMO Michel should be RB1 and get at least 20 carries a game. Henderson only in on screens and 3rd and longs occasionally. Michel is a tough runner; and it has changed the perception of "softness" of the Rams on offense. Michel's production has also taken some pressure off of Stafford. Rams are 2-0 and look like a completely different team with Michel the #1 back. Ride the Michel train into the playoffs until maybe Akers can make a comeback.

Dick Bass likes Michel...what former Ram does Michel remind you of?

Yup

Hopefully he finish strong so that the rams can get at least a 5th rd comp pick.

Getting Akers back to last year's form is not a guarantee. A lot of players never recover from this injury. It can happen, but most RBs and WR never return to their previous form. An ACL is better than an Achilles. Dez Bryant and Richard Sherman were older but they never really recovered.

I read that In 2013, NFL.com said that "our research concludes that no running back has ever recaptured sustained pre-injury form after rupturing an Achilles tendon".

I really hope Akers makes it back but we may want to resign Sony as insurance unless there is a better FA available.

Hendo has been activated, so you just might get your wish on Tuesday. I hope so too.

I hope not this week. The Hags D is 32nd vs the pass, @ 276 yards a game and now there pro bowl safety is gone for the year...
I'd like them to run more too but I believe this week calls for an aerial assault... which is our strength imo
Sprinkle in enough runs to keep them honest. At least til they get a couple scores ahead and later in the game, then maybe they could run more.
