I just want to give him a massive shoutout.

Dude is a FOOTBALL PLAYER... and I love the fact that he got to show he's got more juice than a lot of people on here thought. He's getting integrated and turning into a legitimate weapon in the offense.

Really, really fun to watch.

What I saw was use of Skow as an effective safety valve for Stafford. Much more TE than WR. That seems like a viable plan.
 
Another fine example of not writing a guy off after one bad play/missed catch. He's been a huge cog in the offense the last two weeks. McVay and Stafford need to be on their A game next week and using this guy could be something huge in keeping the Whiners off balance.
 
In year two Benny Skow has become a versatile part of the Rams offense that allows him to lineup all over the field. Few players are able to do that in the McVay offense. His smartness and physicality are the key. Some great blocking from a WR lining up as a FB. Defenses now have to account for him.
 
What did I tell y'all about Skow? Look at his massive improvement in year two. You can't really throw rookie players under the bus for bad plays; they are rookies, after all.

And they got him as an HB/WR combo, which is what I've been telling them to do since we drafted him. He's physical, smart, a solid route runner with underrated hands.
 
Skow is an example of why I don’t fret too much about a missed pick like Tutu.

Don’t get me wrong… I would greatly prefer they don’t waste second round picks… I’m just saying I look at the whole draft & UDFAs.

Like.. Alaric Jackson.. win.

I’m disappointed in Rochell from that class.. but it’s looking like a solid class.
 
Have been really happy to see Skow’s progression this year.

He obviously has a great handle on the offense for several different positions and packages and he is laying the wood on some of those blocks.

He looks smooth catching the ball and showed some decent speed after the catch on that long gain.

Hopefully they can continue to build on their success running the ball.
