St. Louis Rams

Todd Gurley (Running Back):  Gurley saw a quieter afternoon than most people would have assumed however the Ravens run defense is one of the best in the league. Gurley still found the end zone and ran the ball 25 times for 66 yards. Gurley will continue to be an RB1 and will have an easier matchup in week 12.

Tavon Austin (Wide Receiver): Austin had a rough day especially with Case Keenum under center. Austin is not a reliable pass catching wide receiver however he is more of a gadget type player. Austin saw a rushing attempt for 16 yards however could only haul in 1 of his 5 targets for 5 yards in the air.

 

Baltimore Ravens

Kamar Aiken (Wide Receiver):  Aiken had his typical game, he finished the day catching 5 of 8 targets for 50 yards and a touchdown. Aiken continues to see WR1 level targets but produces like a WR2-WR3, that is about to get worse as Matt Schaub takes over for the injured Joe Flacco for the remainder of the year. Aiken's production will suffer as a result of this quarterback change.

Justin Forsett (Running Back): Forsett had a ROUGH day and that is putting it lightly. Forsett only had 4 rushing attempts for 26 yards before suffering a season ending injury. Forsett was wrapped up by Aaron Donald and then flung to the ground, which is where he remained until he was help off the field by medical personnel.  The diagnosis is a broken arm which will end his season. His replacement Javorius "Buck" Allen had a solid day replacing Forsett as he finished the game with 22 rushing attempts for 67 yards and caught 5 out of 6 targets for 48 yards.
