'19 MO RB Kyren Williams (Notre Dame Signee)

[zelezo vlk]

I still love Kyren and wish him well. Did anyone here make a snide comment about this being karma?

I only take issue with the idea that Kyren is beyond reproach. He made a selfish decision and his team suffered for it. I'm still a fan, but that's not the way a captain should leave ND, and it's not fair to expect fans to pretend it didn't happen.

Maybe, but I just don't think this is the proper time to bring it up. This could be the difference between him making the roster or being on the Practice Squad and ultimately not getting any time in the NFL. I'd rather just share in his sorrow and suffer with him now. And I think it's best if we all do. We can talk about the Fiesta Bowl and his decision at a later time. I respect you Whiskey, I just think this shouldn't be the time for it, even if responding to someone else's pre-emptive post.

I was reacting to OMM, not coming here to criticize Kyren in the wake of his misfortune. The tone policing just rubs me the wrong way when it comes to the "right" of fans to be upset with healthy captains who voluntarily sit out of big games. But I agree that this isn't the time for that argument, and I should have saved it for another day.

No problem. You are, if not one of, then the most respected guy on the site. Just felt like it was my Christian duty to say something. Pray an Ave for me, for Kyren, as I will as well.

Doesn't mean I'm above reproach either! I appreciate the thoughtful fraternal correction.

Now kiss.

Now kiss.

You are one of the reasons men can't be open to correction in the public arena.


And maybe I'm just provoking you because I was so passionately moved by two of our respected posters exchanging corrective words with nary an utterance of: Hitler, troll, nazi and no aggressive pushback, and now I want to re-enact it like my secret favorite movie, Titanic.

Any true gentleman loves that movie... however my exchange with Whiskey was in another thread............

Nuh-uh

1st half is real bad. The 2nd half is basically just the T2 director getting to film a really long action scene during the golden era of special effects. Overall: B+.

Reportedly suffered an ankle injury during the Bills game. Listed as questionable right now. A shame, he's had some awful luck so far. Guess ESPN's "Get Up" and NFL Now were hyping him a bit prior to the game this week.

High ankle sprains are one of the worst injuries you can have imo. They can linger for years.

 

[NumbersGuy0520]

Happened on the first special teams play of the game, too; never saw an offensive snap.

Dude has been incredibly unlucky.

 

[Dale]

Looks good in garage time rn in debut.

 

[IrishLax]

Best back on the Rams. That’s not saying much, but it’s true.

 

[Dale]

Get you someone who loves Rees Kyren as much as McVay

 

[Henges24]

Weird. Wasn’t Akers the one that wanted out? Now they release Henderson and keep Akers?

Very weird. Cam sat out for weeks but the Rams have seen reluctant to make Henderson anything but irrelevant despite his health and willingness to play never really in doubt.

Very happy to see KW getting some burn, and it looks like that will increase in the future. He was such a great leader at ND. One of my favorite players over the past 15 years.

Diggs and Estime have been incredible this year. Can we say there's been a big drop off after losing KW? Not really. Credit of course to the OL, but D/E have been terrific as well.

Yeah, i wish Kyren could've run behind this line just to see what he could've done. Wish him the best

 

[Dale]

The GOAT.

 

[rtrn2glory]

That alone will keep him in the league if he stays healthy

 

[Luckylucci]

Got a lot of work on the first drive of the Rams/Seahawks game. Capped it off with his first NFL TD.

I think he’s in for a good year should he stay healthy. I got him in both fantasy leagues. Most excited about him in the keeper league.

 

[zelezo vlk]

Great job for Kyren!

That seems to be the biggest challenge even for the most successful college players who never had injury issues before turning pro

Love hearing Williams got his first NFL td. Great kid with a giant heart. Hope he has an awesome year and career.

More touches than Akers and the more important touches as well.
