Teams have been playing a lot of deep shell against us and our Oline is a mess, hard to stretch the field with that going on. Also we've been playing the best defenses in the NFL.

For a lot of reasons, things should improve over time but we'll see...

In the spirit of election mode,, I approve of this message...

OBJ's first 4 games with the Rams: 12 receptions, 101 yards, 2 TDs
A-Rob's first 4 games with the Rams: 9 receptions, 95 yards, 1 TD

Not really that big a difference, particularly in receiving yards.

The point?

Its a bit too early to write-off A-Rob.

Just sayin'

Fair enough, though A-Rob was here in training camp so I'd hoped he be further along. Only 4 games in, long season ahead.

I'm already feeling, if some team is willing to give us a draft pick for Allen Robinson, right now, I'd take it.

He doesn't seem to be keen to being #2.

You don't see on the television broadcast but at the game you could see Robinson got open a couple of times today but stafford didn't have time to get the ball to him.

While Robinson may get open at times, a high quality receiver knows how to cut off routes and come back to a QB in trouble. Kupp does it and Robert Woods was a master at it. Woods ran great routes. Robinson has shown me nothing beyond what any NFL level WR can do, and for the money, a lot less. I miss Woods and so do the Rams!!! Big mistake by the FO.

You know I have to admit I saw that a couple of times in the Cowboy's game and it was pretty hideous. He doesn't seem to be an instinctive receiver or in the moment. He just doesn't seem to process quickly...

We are on the exact same page. While I didn't get the same vantage as you given that i watched on tv, I kept asking myself "Why is this guy not making the needed adjustments?"
I am totally unimpressed.

NFL's eight most disappointing offseason trades and free-agent signings of 2022

Allen Robinson
Allen Robinson
Los Angeles Rams · WR · Age: 29
Free agent contract: three years, $46.5 million with $30.25 million guaranteed

If the Rams thought they could do a straight swap of Odell Beckham Jr. (who remains a free agent after tearing his ACL in the Super Bowl) for Allen Robinson this offseason, it hasn't quite worked out through five weeks. Beckham was one of the most explosive players in the entire league earlier in his career, and he was showing some of that ability while getting his career back on track in Los Angeles last season. Robinson has been a solid possession receiver, but he's never been the kind of explosive playmaker who creates a ton of separation.

Between 2018 and 2021, Robinson accumulated a league-high 140 tight-window targets (less than 1 yard of target separation), and he ranks third with 51 receptions on tight-window throws in that span, according to Next Gen Stats. In his first five games with the Rams, Robinson has just six tight-window targets, with zero receptions on those throws. Now, it doesn't help that Matthew Stafford is one of the worst tight-window passers in the NFL currently, as he's completed seven of his 26 pass attempts into tight windows for a 26.9 completion percentage.

Sean McVay has been able to mask players' deficiencies in the past, but that can sometimes only go so far in making a player productive (SEE: Jared Goff). To stay at the top of the NFL, teams must have big-time talent, and right now, Robinson isn't it. Through five games, he has 12 receptions on 23 targets for 107 yards (8.9 yards per catch) and one touchdown. Defenses have discovered that they can man up on Robinson and essentially remove him from the play. It's a real problem for a one-dimensional offense that ranks 29th in scoring and 26th in total yards.
