I got these listening to the Fantasy Football Weekly show. Link is here: [

Rams v. Bucs starts around the 72 min. mark. its about 4 min. long.
Anyhow this stat regarding the Rams defense with and without Talib. Courtesy Mike Tagliere
In the last 19 games (so the start of the 2018 season)
Rams defense with Talib (11 games) 210 passing ypg; 0.7 TDs; 1.4 ints
Rams defense w/o Talib (8 games) 300 passing ypg; 2.9 TDs; just under 1 int.
No other context beyond that. I knew the Rams missed him last year, but dang. Thats a massive swing
Now Goff.
This is from Sports Info Solutions via Evan Silva:
Goff vs zone coverage: 14 TDs 12 INTs
Goff vs. Man coverage: 17 TDs 2 INTs
Again, no other context.
Tampa Bay should run a lot of man coverage this Sunday. I expect (if that is the case) Goff, at home to have a large day.
Anyhow. I thought those were interesting. Esp. for those that like stats.
I like the Talib stat simply because it is what it is. The defense is better with Talib then without.
As far as Goff, I wouldn't read into that one as much because it doesn't include pressure rate vs. both, the quality of the defenses he is facing, so forth and so on.
One thing I know for sure, he is going to see alot of 6-1 fronts with zone behind it, so he better figure it out.
