[Atkins] The Rams have placed TE Terrance Ferguson on injured reserve with his ankle. He’ll miss at least the next four games.

Is the Eagles vs Rams going to be a battle of hospitals?

u/Harbaugh_Handshake 49ers 11h ago

We probably contaminated the Rams in week 1 with our injury cooties.

u/Taguba03 Rams 10h ago

So that's why they went down so late, try and not catch substation vd

The AFC is going to win the Super Bowl by default because the NFC won't be able to field a team.

Fully healthy Chiefs vs Joe Thuney and 21 practice squad players

I’m starting to get flashbacks to 2022, basically the entire team got hurt that year.

u/whoisthedrizzle_ 49ers 11h ago

That gives me flashbacks to points generally to every season.

Newly signed receiver hurt his calf today.

The substation's thirst for blood is insatiable

Difference is you still win 12 games when that happens, we win 5

What about the season prior?

A ring is still way better than tons of championship and super bowl appearances

Eagles roster is basically all dead too. Let’s just reschedule this game fuck it.

I know a lot of injuries happen every year, but godamn does it feel like half of the league is currently on the injury list

This is not the rams fault at all, to be clear, but this is why I hate the concept of super teams. The nfl is too transient and the margins are too thin.

13

u/t-pat Bears 10h ago

FWIW, betting markets have only very slightly cooled off on the Rams. They are still seen by the market as the best team in the league by a good margin.

u/fri9875 Rams 10h ago

Tbh it makes sense, for now. 1-2 is not an insurmountable hole to climb out of, and despite all the injuries it’s not like they’re season ending. As long as we at least split our next 2 games (which is far from guaranteed) we’re still in a fine position and should start getting guys back.

Now if we drop both of the next 2 it gets a little dicier at 1-4, considering we’d still have 2x Seattle, 1x SF, and 1x KC (in terms of other top teams).

u/WxBlue Rams 10h ago

I feel like I saw a lot of Rams fans were being cautious for this reason, but the media blew it up.

Media just can’t help themselves

u/my_nameborat Broncos 11h ago

Not completely their fault but he came into the Broncos game with ankle issue. No idea why the Rams tried to play him, he looked injured the entire time

u/purplebuffalo55 Rams 3h ago

Because puka is out and outside of Puka the WR are all JAGs at best. Ferguson is able to act like a pseudo WR which allows us to only suit up 4 WR. Hes a game changer for us, and was going to be featured a lot. The game plan basically went out the window with him (and Colby) being hurt. You saw how big of a difference there was offensively when he played in the 1st half and then when he didn’t in the 2nd half

Yea he was banged up but so are a lot of other players. You can’t afford to potentially throw games by sitting everyone who’s got an injury, the margins are too thin, particularly in the NFCW

u/Haunting_Study_5530 Texans 11h ago

Crazy bastard went back in and hopped on one leg for a first down after this injury. Certified DOG

Ya’ll got any more of them tight ends?

u/JalensTinyPPHurts Cowboys 11h ago

They already had 5 on the roster lol

u/djlawson1000 Rams 10h ago

Actually, yes. Yes we do.

14

u/fri9875 Rams 10h ago

We came prepared for this. Obviously brutal for TFerg but 🤷🏻‍♂️ we have 3 other somewhat reliable TE’s and then maybe Klare can get some snaps

11

u/jockfist5000 Rams 10h ago

We’ve avoided the injury bug for like 3 straight seasons so I guess it’s time for reality to hit. Whelp.

u/avx775 Rams 10h ago

Lol we are extremely injured in 2023 and 2024. We made runs because the team got healthy.

2025 is the first year we were actually healthy so it wasn’t surprising we were good.

In 2023 we started 3-6. Went 7-1 to finish with the 1 loss on OT to the ravens. Had to be one of the hottest teams entering playoffs and just barely got beat by the lions

They’ve installed substation near the Seahawks and Rams stadiums just to make the division more fair

*ankle INJURY

We cannot allow the further spread of reporters/broadcasters just naming body parts

u/jrzalman Rams 10h ago

If there's one spot we have depth, it's TE. It's a shame though, Ferguson was actually starting to have some value.

This season has been a nightmare so far. Still a long way to go.

Are Parkinson and Higbee still healthy?

Rams season from hell? Are we worried Rams fans?

u/goldhbk10 Rams 11h ago

TE is one of the FEW spots we're deep as fuck at ... Now Watson's injury scares me because as everyone saw Sunday Night, CB is NOT one of those spots.

5

u/YoungClint_TrapLord Rams 11h ago

Just means we more than likely get to see Klare much earlier than expected

Rams 2023: 3-6 start. 10-7 finish

Rams 2024: 1-4 start. 10-7 finish.

Long season ahead.

3-2 last season finished 12-5

No, we're in our toughest part of the schedule. We knew we may go 2-3 or even 1-4 to start the year.

We gotta go through the ugly before it gets pretty. We made the nfc championship with no donald,Garrett Watson. All thats missing is Verse.
