...I have been around Football for 50+ years, I do not ever recall a DT, who gets doubled teamed every play performing like AD! He is a freak of Nature.

That said, it also occurs to me, that with teams watching where AD is at all times, why N Suh and our DE's are not looking better? I'm glad we have N. Suh, but he looks average to me. Lot of Season left, maybe he will break out soon.
Rams should not to resign him at a big $$$ contract. If he can be had for cheaper, then Rams should keep him. Lets see how it plays out...

Lastly, JoJo Natson should be our PR, even after P. Cooper comes back..IMHO !
He is Electric !! 7-0 Good to be a Rams Fan !!!!

Roll LA Rams !! 8-)

JoJo was certainly a find but what happens next year? The rams just let him go? It’s certainly a good problem to have.

Agree on everything you said!! Especially about P. Cooper. IMO, he was over rated due to having great blocking on his returns as is evident by JoJo's returns. Even our KO returns haven't dropped off much without him.

I would like to see JoJo get some action as a WR too. P. Cooped was only average at WR. Maybe JoJo would be better there too!

Stats from last year show that AD faced multiple blockers more than any other NFL interior lineman.

But he also led the league in (combined) sacks, qb hits, and qb hurries.

What are the odds of that.

He gets multiple blockers inside more than anyone but has more qb pressures than leading edge rushers.

That's the very definition of generational talent.

I'm not quite old enough to have memories of Merlin Olsen, so when I think of all-time DTs who I saw play, I think of guys like Alan Page, Randy White, Cortez Kennedy, John Randle and Warren Sapp.

I'd stack Aaron Donald up against any of them.

Not a DT but you could include Deacon. AD is Deacon-level talent! Cheers.
