Going into the biggest game of the season, very few expected Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers to be active let alone starting but the Florida State alum has defied odds to play.

Akers suffered a torn Achilles training prior to camp in July and subsequently missed 16 games before returning for the final game of the season.

In his first game, it was clear the Rams RB lacked explosiveness and wasn't hitting the holes as he normally would resulting in just 3 yards on 5 carries. Depth RB Sony Michel was the bell-cow rushing 21 times as backup RB Darrell Henderson was on IR due to an MCL injury suffered against the Vikings Week 16.

Once the playoffs began, the Rams began to ease Akers into a starting role and gave him a solid 17 carries as they tried to acclimate him to a normal workload. He was inefficient with his touches and again lacked burst while plodding Michel managed more yards on 4 less carries.

In the win versus the Buccaneers, Akers looked much worse on more carries (24) averaging only 2 yards per carry. However, in this game Akers solidified the starting role amassing 80% of the teams carries.

The Conference Championship featured a more dynamic Akers as he managed 48 yards on 13 carries but relinquished his majority stake in the running game after he suffered a shoulder injury. He was able to return but was less of a factor and was unable to practice the first week after the injury before logging a FP in back to back days this week.

Earlier this week we predicted a healthy Henderson would return from IR and play

This is a huge boon for the Rams running game as he filled in well for Akers rushing for a career high 688 yards and five touchdowns. It will be the first time since Week 15 of last year that both Akers and Henderson will suit up in the same game.

It has been almost seven weeks since initial injury meaning we expect a healthy Henderson going into the Super Bowl and the bulky back should absolutely steal carries from a RB still rounding into form.

The Rams will head into the Super Bowl with a three-headed monster at RB with Akers, Henderson and Michel all vying for opportunities. The Rams have expressed a plan to "ride the hot hand" meaning the FanDuel prop of 15.5 carries for Akers is high as this number paints a picture of a full workload.

Expect his carries to fall short of 16 and you can even sprinkle in a little on the under rushing yards prop as we alluded to early week

Yep attempts & yards a good under.

After his two fumbles v. TB, you won't
see him much if ahead late , similar to
Niner game.

There's a commercial with "nouns" NFT. I'm not sure if it'll be mentioned first but that's the only NFT that I know of that will be shown.

I look with great anticipation to the opening kick-off.

They have flooded the market on the
'Yes' there will be a return. Mid underdog to favorite now.

I took a small slice that the opening kickoff will be a touchback/not returned -105.

I played some on Burrow’s 1st pass will be incomplete/ intercepted at + 190 & Stafford’s 1st pass will be incomplete/ intercepted at + 180. 2 separate wagers & I need just 1 to hit make some money.

Also played the largest lead in the game under 14.5 points.

Good luck fellas with your SB wagers!

That number made no sense to me. Then i read the reason.
A special football is used for the opening kick of every Super bowl. then it is taken out of the game and put in the hall of fame. The kickers never see the ball until it is handed to them on the field to start the game. The football is harder than the normal football and is more difficult to kick it in the end zone.

Love this - and even thought they don't run them often, getting some kind of a WR sweep another option that makes this almost an automatic hit.

A jet sweep to Jefferson or Copp is in play.

Also a 3rd n 1 dive to the fullback, this is a very good freeroll in terms of 4 is a push and McVay is going to have a sneaky #5 rusher somewhere.

Bogata took 75k on Stafford to throw a INT!?

Geez, before the sports betting explosion you had to wait 5 minutes
to get a ok on $500 on a prop.

I’ve got Cooper Kupp at 6/1 for MVP. He HAS to be MVP. Entire last drive was him, from his 3rd down conversion on a rushing play, to the PIs he drew, to having to catch the go ahead TD twice, since the first was wiped out by penalty. He already got screwed out of regular season MVP

The voting for regular season MVP should've been much closer than it was. I said in another post that I felt Kupp was the regular season MVP. Some justice tonight.

Look at this way. How many games does GB or TB win without their Qbs?

Is Kupp's WAR even 2?

Once Stafford threw that second pick he was in trouble as far as MVP, and Kupp was a monster on that last drive

How much better was Kupp vs every other WR? A lot more than Rodgers was better than Brady or Burrow. Based on your argument, just give the MVP based on talent, not results. Jordan and Lebron would win every year. Kupp was better at his job than Rodgers was at his (this year).

Is football WAR even worth bringing up? Do we know what goes into football WAR?
