Still, the offensive line is without key pieces. Yes, they’ve been able to develop some consistency as it hasn’t been a new group every week. The offensive line hasn’t gotten gotten considerably healthier. Not a lot has changed over the last three weeks when it comes to the situation that Akers is running in. The big question that the Rams will need to figure out, is this a sign of things to come and a sign that Akers is back and fully healthy from his torn achilles? Or is this simply Akers taking advantage of bad run defenses?
His 5.67 yards per carry over the last three weeks is exactly double what he was averaging earlier in the season. Through the first nine weeks, Akers had 62 carries for 176 yards, averaging 2.84 yards per carry. That’s quite the turnaround from where Akers was earlier in the season. In the last three games, Akers has a combined 54 carries for 306 yards, averaging 5.67 yards per carry.
After an overall disappointing 2022 season, Akers has turned it around recently and has shown why the Rams were so excited about him heading into the 2021 season prior to tearing his achilles.Īgainst the Los Angeles Chargers, Akers became the first Rams running back since CJ Anderson at the end of 2018 to have back-to-back 100 yard performances. Over the last three weeks of the NFL season, there may not be a player standing out more on the Los Angeles Rams than running back Cam Akers.
