Justin Jefferson and the Minnesota Vikings match up against Jalen Ramsey and the Los Angeles Rams in week 16 of the 2021 season. #nfl #jalenramsey #justinjefferson #espn
I know people love to hate Ramsey but the man is the truth. Everyone just wants to watch him get burnt on these matchups but he stays solid. Jefferson is top 5 WR this season and Jalen had him locked up when they went man to man. I’m a Packers fan and even with Devante (who is the best WR in the league) we had to motion him away from Jalen to get him going. People who are actually watching the games can see Ramsey is for sure the truth
Kupps better I get you will say this is his only good season but to be fair adams was irrelevant until just last year pretty much adams is a gifted WR with amazing route running and good hands but hasn’t been super super elite this year like kupp has
@@buddygass3728 nah Kupp is having an amazing year but he has other great receivers spreading out the defense on his team. Devante’s numbers are not that far off and he has less targets and is getting a lot more attention on him from the defense. I don’t think Kupp runs better routes than Adams nor do I think he has better hands. Also, last year Adams had a monster season but that was not when he “became relevant” lol He’s been playing great the past 5 -6 years. You must have just not been watching him before last year.
@@greg2797 I mean a top 3 receiver relevant he wasn’t necessarily a top 3 WR before last year also I’m not 100% sure on this but some stat said kupp is double teamed almost 4 percent of the time which I actually believe is better then adams this year plus his receivers aren’t that great not as good as you think they are they are more afraid of him then woods or Odell for sure kupp also throughout the year has been blocking defensive lineman and linebackers don’t see adams doing that and kupp has almost 400 more yards then him and has 4 more touchdowns while having the best quarterback in the league kupp also lines up in the backfield and pretty much everywhere making it hard to double him also I never said kupp had better hands or has better route running but he is smarter which is why he’s so good
@@greg2797 and targets shouldn’t even be a stat kupp is open way more often because he always knows how to get through zone defenses while adams is more of a man beater imo
@@buddygass3728 Gotcha, that's your opinion. I do agree Kupp is smart at finding the holes in zones but I still think overall Tae is better. i'm not saying Kupp's teammates are a whole bunch better but for example I watched the very first game OBJ entered the lineup (which was right after he got picked up by them so he didn't know their offense) and Kupp caught a couple of wide open catches because the DBs were overacting to OBJ. That doesn't happen in GB with Tae. There is no one to overract to except Devantae. That's the major difference to me.
@@ytspgaming2614 yeah thats kinda odd if he was frustrated id understand being amped up ofc we all get amped up and u gotta stay amped up, but maybe he was frustrated if jj was holding him or if the game in general wasnt going well (the rams won tho) so thats kinda weird
@@danumis_ fuck tape I watched the game live …. Justin Jefferson was held to 2 catches 14 yards 1st half … that was while Jalen was playing press man coverage in the second half is when Jalen wasn’t on him because the rams went to zone coverage…. JJ looked defeated for most of that game until Jalen wasn’t guarding him anymore
@@danumis_ no he wasn’t dawg I’m not going to continue going back and forth with you jalen Ramsey won the matchup and there were 2 plays were he may of gotten open Jalen still made a play on the ball ….
Y’all say that every time a DB does a good job, suck it up and quit looking for excuses, you people always treat receivers like they’re babies or something
@@griffin8917 that’s a skill that corners need to have. All corners do it if you’re not cheating you’re not trying. The best corners all hold just a little bit to slow down the cut and feel the route😂
This is the best corner in the league, why'd ppl think he would be outdone by a 2 year wr? He's locking up and shutting down players who've been in the game for 10 years!
@@bill2953 you mean Howard an fuck no he ain't 🤣🤣dude allows just as many TDs as Diggs and 1 less pick then Ramsey...Ramsey the best...you barely see big plays on Ramsey or out of place....less picks but you never hear of receivers having a big game
Well...if you did watch the game,, Kirk threw a lot of balls behind JJ. If the ball was thrown well, JJ did beat Ramsey multiple times. Also, Ramsey was holding a lot. You can even see it in these highlights. He was always grabbing JJ jersey. He gets away with it bc he is star player.
@@meazrunit ur buggin Jj had like 20 yards against Ramsey in man coverage the other yards he got they was in Zone.1 on 1 is man unless Jj was running a route towards Ramsey in zone and it was thrown to them 1 on 1.Ramsey had Jj locked down
When Jalen actually guarded Justin Jefferson he locked him up ….. it wasn’t until the 2nd half when Raheem took Ramsey off of Justin because of the zone scheme the rams started running is when Justin started getting loose
Veteran top NFL corner vs sophomore top NFL receiver. JJ lost this one but he’s got a lot of promise being considered a top receiver in his second year. Can’t wait to see this matchup evolve over time as JJ gets more NFL experience.
Ignorant clueless take. Hope Vikings get Sam darnold, Heineke, cam, one of the rookie qbs, teddy, Ben, etc. hope you guys get one of those and say that Kirk is bad 😂
@@Dilly_Dil1y lmao Kirk is def top 10-15. But what I’m saying is he misses lots of throws and just imagine if Justin had someone like Joe burrow throwing him the ball. His numbers would be INSANE. Kirk can’t get him the ball like he wants. A quarter back that knows the value of Justin is going to get him the ball, and kirk doesn’t know that value. Kirk ties to spread the ball around which is great, but even if Justin isn’t the most open man on the field that doesn’t mean don’t give him a chance. Justin is a playmaker
To anyone who said he got locked up on those clips you’re blind. In the NFL to get that type of separation is absolutely gold for elite qb’s he just had Kirk throwing the ball late.
I’m sort of new to football can someone tell me what the reporter said @3:54 it sound like he was goin to say Ramsey has no fear of getting burnt deep?
Best CB in the league. Guy is a press coverage corner playing in a Raheem Morris scheme where he plays inside zone often which is far from his comfort zone. Would love to see the rams get a defensive coordinator that new how to utilize him.
Jalen Ramsey has been in the league six years and he’s on a super talented team .. I can’t wait until we put some real pieces around my boy JJ and if we don’t I won’t be mad if he leave 💯💯 I stayed when AP left I can’t stay this time tho lol
Meanwhile y’all have dalvin cook and Adam the Ilene and Kirk really not having a bad year wtf else do he need not too mention he has more yards than anybody in history first two years
So in translation, jalen was acting like a little girl because he got burnt🤡😂even on the play that he “rocked the baby celebration” he got burnt again but the throw was late
@@christiannwachukwu6901 LOL Ramsey won the matchup. Yes there were bad throws. I’m not sure if you understand football but that is a good playcall against that formation. There isn’t much any corner can do in that situation.
the vikings have a thing for drafting great recievers. Or Atleast having them on the team. Randy moss, chris carter, percy harvin cordelle patterson, Stefon diggs, adam theilen, justin jefferson. And i might be forgettin some people but Lately KJ osbourn has been getting some shine
I'm not a Pittsburgh Steelers fan but Pittsburgh track record of drafting receivers especially outside of 1st round is amazing and better in my eyes than the Vikings especially when you consider the ROI on the draft pick being used. The Vikings WR are all 1st picks but maybe 3-4 of them.
Jefferson couldn’t do sh*t when Ramsey presses all of Jefferson’s catches were not against Ramsey or Ramsey was playing super far back Ramsey won not even really close tbh 🤷♂️
@@preciouswalker1722 adams runs from ramsey every time they play 😂😂😂 when they do go against each other one on one adams don’t do shit bruh watch the games
@@ericsutton_69 google is ur friend before u stay stupid shit why would they make adams stationary they move him around motion him and once u get Ramsey moving he takes his lunch u need to go do a film review
@@preciouswalker1722 Tae definitely got his but he ain’t take his lunch. Just how Jefferson would’ve got his + more if A rod was his qb & Matt L. was the play caller
I swear Ramsey gets away with a lot of shit ! I’ve seen so many other DBs taunt and talk to the other sideline after a play and get flagged but Ramsey does it and nothing
Kirk literally threw the ball behind him twice just in these highlights which would of been another 40-50 yards easily you guys are idiots talking about sonning anything
Man it's crazy how good Ramsey is even tho corner is not his main position. He was supposed to be a saftey out of college. He's gonna be like Rod Woodson in the future
This is their first meeting jalen Ramsey is the best cornerback in the league, so what if he clamped down on JJ he is the best at his position. but we not gonna act like Jefferson didn't start getting comfortable and start creating separation on jalen. as a Vikings fan it's not an excuse when people are saying cousins didn't make a few throws cuz he didn't, he can be very timid and hesitant when there is pressure on him
I still laugh at Ramsey when He was a Jaguar and cried and cried about the ass whooping the Niners delivered. Ever since then I refer to Ramsey as "Dumpster Juice"...LOL
Ramsey is the best Corner in the league no doubt, but Kirk was late getting the ball to Jefferson at times overall these two are the best at what they do
Let’s be honest when Ramsey faces a WR who has a really good QB who can make real throws a.k.a Mr Adams and Rodgers you’ll see how trash Ramsey is, Ramsey can grab and hold adams all he wants and Adams well still score because of his routes and Rodgers timing, but with Kirk bro hesitates and Ramsey capitalized.
Lol Adams only had one good game against Ramsey other than that he's been a problem since being in the league, he can be a diva at times but he's solid
4:18 damn, look at that seperation he gets on that route. If only kirk throws that on-time smh. JJ also cooked him Ramsey 1 on 1 for which would have been an easy touchdown on that Osborn touchdown play.
U don’t kno football nigga…Ramsey was shutting dis nigga down considering the coverage they were playing…the rams ply a lot of cover 1 and blitz man which makes the corner have to play top shoulder man(probably don’t know what dat is) which means ur primary goal is to not let him get behind u. This makes Ramsey great because with no help of the top he still goes down their and press and wins match ups
@@duke520 If covering him well on one little stop and go which he was playing off coverage and maybe one other route means shutting him down, i guess your right lmao. I'm not saying JJ killed Ramsey or got the best of him but all I'm saying is if JJ had a better quarterback who threw the ball on time, he could easily go for 175yds every game, including this one.
man they say this on every rasmey video. ramsey got beat its the qb fault. damn its funny how the quarterbacks aways play like trash when they play ramsey.
