DK Metcalf and the Seattle Seahawks match up against Jalen Ramsey and the Los Angeles Rams in week 15 of the 2021 NFL season. #nfl #jalenramsey #dkmetcalf #seattleseahawks #larams
Metcalf caught 3 passes on 9 targets against Ramsey for 26 yards. Ramsey was penalized twice, once for holding and 1 PI while covering Metcalf. Who won the matchup? 🤔
The stats make it look like DK was strapped all game. Jalen did play well but let’s not act like DK was never open cuz he was at 1:36 and 4:55. He coulda had 2 TDs on Jalen in this game. I’ll give the edge to Jalen but it’s closer than what people think
DK a cry baby!!! CAN'T CATCH IN THE CLUTCH!!! JOKER WAS SHUT DOWN!! CAN'T PLAY BIG IN BIG GAMES!!! ...HE NEED TO STUDY COOPER KUPP ON RUNNING ROUTES AND CATCHING THE BALL WITH DB'S ON HIM!!!
It's so weird that when CB wins, the QB missed the Receiver but if the WR wins it's the WR burning the CB nothing about the QB It's always a Lose lose for CB
5:37 You can see that the coverage is 3 deep with Ramsey and opposite side corner protecting outside middle zones. The safety on Ramsey side got faked by Russel and blew his deep 3rd zone. Ramsey actually saved his safety's blown assignment, but Russell should have still made a better pass to capitalize for a potential big play.
Nah that's on Ramsey! It's cover 3 so they each have a third of the field and that's Jalen's third. There is no other threat on that side so Ramsey should of shadowed DK! He was just being nosey looking in the backfield
@@salimsalimg buddy look how there is already a safety mid field Taylor rap 24 got baited by Wilson that’s why Ramsey is squatting beucas he has the flats , sorry but your wrong n buddy is right
@@grantforte2145 No you're wrong! What are yall looking at? Watch again # 22 or whatever the number goes to the Flat. Jalen should of kept sinking w/DK into his third of the zone.. The safety has the middle of the field. This isn't cover 2.. When does CB ever just sit in the flat on cover 3?
@@salimsalimg bro I explained it using football n if you listen they explain I’m the replay how the safety got beat not jalen n common sense if jalen has deep third why would he squat on a hitch? He knew when to squat early n this wasn’t a double move or anything, it wasn’t his responsibility, defense in the nfl shifts very far so taking a few steps in the wrong direction means a lot which is what happens to 24. N you don’t even know the number like lol watch it again I know all these guys names n half of their colleges 🤣
@@grantforte2145 I bet you were the player on your team always messing up bc you didn't understand the scheme. Why would you have two players in the flat? Again DK is the only threat on that side. Even if it were C4 Ramsey should be there. Jalen like alot of good corners get nosey sometimes and make mistakes, that's it. Only time you Squat on hitch is in C2 or if you're manned upped and yall are blitzing. Just bc you know all the players doesn't mean you understand schemes.
Let’s be real Jalen won but it coulda been bad for Jalen. DK had Jalen beat for 2 TDs, one at 1:37 and the other at 4:55. DK has a lotta haters but tbh he’s given Ramsey a bigger challenge than DHop has the past 2 years 🤷♂️
Agree with you. Not saying jalen ramsey is bad but everyone saying Jalen is playing with his son in incorrect. Ik russel wilson is talented but he did not hv accurate throws this game.
Metcalf runs terrible routes and leaves practice early. Jalen baited him and used his make up speed, because he's a lot more intelligent of a player than Metcalf.
Stats won’t do DK any favors but if u watched Russ bro he was just so bad and not accurate every since that finger injury. I saw DK burn Ramsey for what would’ve been 2 scores or at-least a huge gain Ramsey won this battle minus the excuses
@@matsalvatore9074 ong only reason a cb is playing a wide out down the field zone they would be backed up to see the sone Jalen was playing flats and outside saving the safety’s ass everytime
The amount of ground Ramsey can cover is unreal. DK beat him on a streak route and Ramsey recovered just in time for the deflection. Given, if Wilson lazored that ball, it probably would’ve been a touchdown.
@@christophershanklin112 bro wtf then what was the point of the comment that makes no sense why would you just randomly point out that there was a safety but the safety was bear
True definition of stats not telling the whole story. No disrespect to Jalen Ramsey who played well, had some good coverage and key pass breakups, but DK had him beat multiple times and drew penalties for it too even with Russ’s accuracy as problematic and all over the place as it’s been as of late. DK did his job, Jalen did a good job too but this matchup was more about Russ not doing his job than anything because the plays for DK were clearly there. If Russ was more accurate, DK could’ve easily had 2 TD’s this game. Especially with the deep ball where DK blows right past Ramsey, the Rams we’re playing cover 2, even though there was supposed to be a safety over top, Russ moves the safety and just leaves DK and Jalen Ramsey and if Russ throws that ball a couple yards farther, that’s a touchdown. Both DK and Ramsey played well, really just feels like Russ just sold the matchup.
Eh there’s like 5 qbs in the league make those throws consistently so just think more like this a average one instead of Russ you can’t always get that perfect deepball
This is so dumb. Russ is obviously struggling. DK had Jalen beat a few times during that game but Russ is feeling that finger too much. I think he has doubts he can make an accurate deep throw. Would be interesting to see his accuracy rating since his broken finger.
@@godlovesyou1622 I agree with your name but I still think people shouldn't get mad about a game they aren't in. They don't know how hard it is to throw 50 yards... I must admit I shouldn't have said it in that tone.
@@kadothebestt dam dude calm down lol. No one is crying over anything. Just pointing out that the comparison is pretty dumb if you think about it. Russ isn't healthy and his accuracy is directly affecting DKs output.
We were 11-5 and 12-4 after signing that contract he has been great, but I think he should be willing to take a pay cut to fill positions that we need filled like we need a lockdown CB who can shadow number 1s
@@elijahgraham862 I'm a Rams fan, it should start with you guys drafting better. Trading picks away for Jamal Adams who is basically a linebacker. Then drafting Rashad Penny in the first round who hasn't done anything until recently
@@coolingbeanz8356 that's just not how it works, safety was supposed to be over the top but played it wrong. Watch the other side of the field they did it correctly. Sometimes in quarters and often in cover 3 is that the case, this was neither of those
@@benjacoby4899 yeah my fault I accidentally confused it with cover 3. But wouldn’t Ramsey have stayed in his area since he was supposed to have safety help over the top?
DK just turned 23 he's Young this is what you need to learn and get better he need these challenges to improve his game this ain't nothing but practice this man is only 23 years old hashtag keep learning hashtag keep striving
@@dimitriousdemarcusbarthale1141 He didn't catch one deep ball on Ramsey, you think NFL players make a career out of beating people and then never making the catch?
He did not lock him up😭😭. Wilson sold dk multiple times when he was open for touchdowns. Ramsey also has to hold dk a lot and take the flag to not allow touchdowns
So by your logic let the WR get the touchdown instead of holding which would only result in 15 yards, You make no sense bud it’s called Football IQ and if you had any you would know most CB’s in the NFL hold on over 50% of there targets, You just mad because Jalen is the best CB we’ve seen in years🤥🤫
@@user-td4fe5ng6u u cant even spell easily first of all. 2nd of all u realize of russ his do on the 2 deep shots he would have 138 yards 2td on 8 catches..
@@Hawks2tuff A cornerbacks job is to force an incompletion, and considering there was no completion/touchdown to the person Ramsey was guarding (Donkey Kong), that's a win for him.
That play where Ramsey got burned was either cover 6 or 9 or a bracket coverage on dk. Ramsey played trail to stop comebacks and short routes. Safety just came over late
@@coryvincent1932 uhh your reasoning is literally invalid because the only reason Jalen knocked those down is because the ball is bad😂 are you that dumb?
DK didn’t practice the whole week either with a back and foot and still dusted him. So what are you saying? Ramsey should be thanking Russ for his arm today. It saved Ramsey from being on house of highlights.
@@laramstake3742 the Rams got alot of help from the NFL. If this game was played on Sunday Rams would've lost also according to the rules it should've been a forfeit. Clearly the NFL wants them to be in the Superbowl in their homefield. Rescheduling the game made it possible to get main players back while the Seahawks had to add many to the Covid list.
Really, a guy who rushed back from a finger injury. The Seahawks are only relevant because of Russ. If you gad a decent back up. He wouldn't had to come back and play hurt.
@@secanes024 that’s the dumbest thing I ever heard, the only teams that aren’t relevant because of their qb is no one, there is no good team that would be good without their qb.
All of Ramsey’s wins are mainly due to 1. DK being open multiple times and Russ doesn’t even look his way or misses 2. Russell being hit stepping into his throws 3. Seattle having terrible play calling and won’t get him involved unless they are down.
Do some of you understand that not every single play is man coverage lol? Just because DK runs past Ramsey doesn't mean he got burned smh. A receiver like DK plays right into Ramsay's hands. He's too dependent on his freakish physicality and speed and not technical enough as a route runner to give Ramsey a problem.
He got him on multiple routes that game🤣🤣 literally caused 2 holding/PI calls bc he had to adjust. If Russ never broke his finger he would have went off this game. Every time he threw to DK it was a terrible throw.
@@crispycream6385 He got three catches for 26 yards when matched up with Ramsey bro. If you want to give him a cookie for 2 penalties go ahead lol. This game was nothing special and this was one of his BEST games against Ramsey. Two totally different levels my guy
@@tango072013 homie if a receiver blows past you and is wide open for a touchdown then he won that route. Jalen was blessed with a lot of inaccurate passes.
@@daniellissy5788 If ur referring to the pass that Wilson underthrew and Ramsey knocked away, ur failing to realize that was cover 2 not man to man. Ramsey clearly let DK run past him cus his zone was short and he knew he had help over the top (you can literally see the safety run over the top of DK at the end of the play). Wilson only "underthrew" the ball because he was trying to fit it into the window.
Too many Woulda, coulda, shoulda in these comment sections. This is part of the game and if DK gonna complain about it like how y’all are then he’s soft and not built like a dog. The best perform under the most ridiculous circumstances in any sport. And it’s vice versa for every position… & yes I watched the game.
He was gonna read it regardless he was staring at his hips and gave him the cushion the whole way. That’s just textbook DB play right there. He knew the play Seattle was running. DK is a big dude he won’t have the wiggle as a tae Adams and Ramsey knows that.
@@ID0XX I feel u but even still technically he doesn’t need the wiggle cause Julio doesn’t really have it either, he just didn’t give as much effort as Julio would selling a inside route on that corner break. All he had to do was step outside Jalen’s frame just a little to attack the inside leverage and then just explode out to the corner, he at least would’ve have a slither of separation🤷🏽♂️
It’s funny some of y’all talking bout well dk was open on some plays. Did he get the pass or no? And just cuz u think a corner is beat doesn’t mean they Are, Jalen and Sherman and Deion and others are known for baiting
Uh no, not shut down. It was about even, as you would expect from two superstars going at it. DK smoked Jalen on several plays, Russ just couldn't make a damn throw to save his life. If Russ played like he used to play, great deep ball thrower, DK would have had at least 100 yards and 2 TD's. Jalen won on several occasions too and made some great plays, but "shut down" Is a BS representation and anyone who actually watched the game would know that.
nah those “tds” wouldnt even be ramseys fault rmas run zone more than every defense in the league and even if you count those on jalen and he gets maybe 100, only 100 for a “superstar” like dk should be expected jalen clamps dk every year if u look back. and if he can only get 26 on his main guy thats sad dk is mid.
@@Tyrein A corneback's job is to force an incompletion, considering Ramsey didn't allow any big completions/touchdowns to the guy he was guarding (Donkey Kong), that sounds like he won.
Funny thing is that DK was locked up 90% of the game against the Packers too and we were missing Alexander and Eric Stokes that game, all we had was Kevin King and Rasul Douglas (which isn't horrible by any stretch of the imagination just not our best players at the position) tbh I think Russel Wilson is just out of his prime and going downhill fast. Ramsey didn't want none of the Adams/ Rodgers combo when we played the Rams though he was always lined up on the opposite side of the field. Ramsey is good but not a great, if he was great he would of locked up Adams but he knew he couldn't
Ramsey was playing it like a cloud in that situation but if the safety wasn’t baited by wilson and saw #3 come into his zone from the other side he wouldn’t have been able to go over the top of Ramsey forcing Ramsey to stay on Dk and carry him out of his zone. Regardless Russel made that play with his eyes but lost it with his arm.
Your just an causal watcher you know nothing about football. Watch some film maybe you will learn something. Jalen won by default due to Russ to connecting on 2 TD from deep!
Looks like Ramsey was trying to catch his breath half the game. DK had him cooked in multiple occasions. Russell’s “top 3 arm” won Ramsey the matchup. He had him beat on multiple occasions and it’s been the trend in every rams game. Either wilson gets sacked, or hit, or misses his throw, or doesn’t even look his way when DK has him beat. But yeah Ramsey won lol.
The fact that Ramsey was playing 20 yards off of him Idk what kind of zone that is😆😆 maybe the twilight zone because bro was terrified of his speed lol
ok I seen some nice back and forth match ups on the outside, but I really feel like this is the new Deon sanders vs Jerry rice! neither sons the other one without getting some retaliation! this footage is a bit misleading.
Do beat Ramsey multiple times. And had a decent day. Russ was off for sure but Ramsey did make some plays. He’s a good cover corner and makes excellent timed tackles to when the ball is getting there.
People are saying Ramsey got beat. That isn't the case. At 1:55 Ramsey was in perfect position to make a play on the ball. At 5:37 Ramey was playing the flats and his safety blew his coverage so Ramsey stepped back and made the play.
Add in Wilson’s bad throws, the two penalties on DK, it would’ve easily been 100 yards and at least 1 td on Jalen. Jalen also has that effect on QBs tho
Here are the plays as I saw them: 1. Wasn’t on him 2. Shoved out of bounds 3. Not a great route by Metcalf, Ramsey won from the jump 4. Holding penalty still caught, Metcalf won 5. Throw away 6. Didn’t involve Ramsey 7. Drop/ bad throw 8. Slipped, Metcalf won 9. Locked up, Ramsey won 10. Pass interference on Ramsey, Metcalf won 11. Underthrow, Metcalf won 12. Stop route, beautiful tackle and contest, I’d call it a tie but in Metcalf’s favor 13. Locked up, Ramsey won 14. Catch and run, Metcalf won My opinion: Metcalf won more matchups that were thrown to him, I wasn’t able to watch the game, but I’d have to say Ramsey covered him decently, but Metcalf was able to get more space than Ramsey should’ve allowed him. Metcalf won this one
I mean people out here mentioning the holding on Jalen but they are the same people calling DK’s offensive PI on lattimore clean. Overall DK has had a few performances where DBs have erased him this year
Deebo,stefon, and dk they all made there son one thing u can say jalen is the father of dk if jalen cant cover him on the streak and stay above him, also jalen has play zone cover everytime he plays man he gets cooked so u tell me if hes Dk's daddy.
