Randy McMichael Out For The Season

St. Louis Rams TE Randy McMichael is now out for the season after suffering a broken tibia and torn ligament in his right leg during the Buffalo Bills contest. The Rams will place McMichael on the IR list ending his 2008 season. With Al Saunders taking over as offensive coordinator this season McMichael was to be a huge part of the Rams offense. His season will end with a total of 11 catches for 139 yards and zero touchdowns. This will be the first season that McMichael does not play in all 16 games. Unfortunately it will also be his first year without at least 2 TDs and 400+ yards receiving.

McMichael was one of the few Rams players so far this year that actually appeared to be motivated, have some fire, and want to win. During games McMichael and Steven Jackson appear to be the only two Rams on offense that are fired up and trying to lead by example. This appears to be another nail in the Rams 2008 coffin.
