The undrafted rookie out of Colorado will “probably miss a week or two” after being diagnosed with a left knee sprain, said Fisher.
“One of the things we knew about him when we evaluated him was that everyone around him was so impressed with his leadership, his poise and his composure”, Garrett said. I am not going to settle for that, OK? At that point, the Rams took a 28-24 lead, which would be the final score. The Cowboys have made off-season improvements to the O line to help Dez do some work. And the bottom line turned out fine, with quarterback Sean Mannion handling the second half and bringing the Rams back for a 28-24 victory.
Goff said Thursday he hasn’t heard back from Taylor Swift after his interest in the pop star became television fodder, but is hearing about his sunrise gaffe. “He played really well and I’m very happy for him. He made some little plays and also made some big plays.”. “There’s no difference between practice and a game”.
Usually, Saturdays at the LA Coliseum are reserved for the USC Trojans, but the Rams practiced at their new home a week earlier in front of almost 30,000 fans and will play their final preseason home game on Saturday, Aug. 20 against the Kansas City Chiefs at the home of the 1984 Olympics.
So by outscoring the Cowboys 21-0 in a dramatic comeback, the bottom half of the roster picked up the starters, who fell behind 21-7 inside 17 minutes.
While the Rams had not exactly gotten off to the ideal start, Keenum led his offense on an eight-play, 75-yard drive that culminated with a 14-yard Benny Cunningham rushing touchdown on his second drive.
But all in all it was very hard not to like the performance out of the players we needed to see flashes from and, certainly the calls for a veteran back up presence will be silent. for a week anyhow. It was just good to see the coaching staff and everybody get behind the promise of what he might be able to be as a player.
The Cowboys jolted the fans in attendance immediately when Lucky Whitehead returned the opening kickoff 101 yards for a touchdown and a 7-0 Dallas lead after just 13 seconds.
The same types of plays the beat the Rams last season managed to beat them to start off this preseason.
“And that’s OK”, Fisher said. He expects to treat it like every other game he has played in, though there will be one notable difference as he will be coming off the bench. There’s a lot of learning from that. But, as with most preseason games, that’s not the real story. Whitehead adds an element of speed to both the return game and the offense and could be headed for a breakout season. For some reason, I was the only one who saw it. That ranked 61st in the league, and he was the only St. Louis pass-catcher in the league’s top 100.
