Cup half-full? At least that means that there is some optimism and positive
00:08
injury report. Cooper Cup is going to miss a few weeks for the Rams with a
00:12
diagnosed high ankle sprain that he suffered on Sunday against Arizona.
00:16
However, there is a hope in Los Angeles. He returns within a month, so no need for
00:22
injured reserve. You just have two other starters, Jonah Jackson and Josh Johnson
00:27
III being placed on IR. Pukunukua already on IR, and we have not seen a
00:33
fully healthy Rams offensive line start a game through the first two weeks this
00:36
year, so good for Cooper Cup, not great for the Rams in total. No, it's not, and
00:43
this lets you know exactly what the Rams are thinking about their season. Now, if
00:46
there was a chance, let's just say the Rams were 2-0 and Cooper Cup got hurt, you
00:50
would IR him and say, okay, we'll be able to, you know, steady the waters here, we'll
00:54
be able to make it through, we'll be 500 when you get back here, you'll be fully
00:57
healthy, we'll make a run towards the playoffs. They're telling you now, well,
01:01
if we IR you, you're out for a minimum amount of weeks here, and we might not
01:04
even have a win by the time you get back. If we can save one week or two weeks
01:09
here with your ankle injury and burn a spot here on our roster just waiting for
01:13
you, it might be worth it, because otherwise, we don't think we're even
01:16
going to be competitive and or be in playoff chances by week 9 or week 10 at
01:21
this point. So, I understand what the Rams are doing, but this ship is sinking
01:25
and taking water fast right now, and Cooper Cup coming back in four weeks,
01:28
five weeks, or six weeks, I really don't think it makes a difference.
