I think it's the degree of focus... it's always the QB, IOW. Unwarranted focus on one player when it's a 'team' game.
I have just the thing.
PFF says the Rams have one of the best safety duos in the league.

The Rams are one of two teams where both starting safeties have allowed a catch rate of 50 percent or lower.
This offseason, Los Angeles lost Rodney McLeod to the Eagles, so Maurice Alexander joined T.J. McDonald at safety. The position then projected to be a weak spot in the defense, but so far both safeties have played well in coverage. They have allowed fewer than 100 yards between them when they are the primary men in coverage, and have yet to allow a touchdown. This week they face the Bills, where Tyrod Taylor has been one of the least-accurate quarterbacks on deep passes, with an adjusted completion percentage of 31.3 on deep attempts. Despite the low accuracy, Taylor remains among the top 10 QBs in deep-passing yards (throws traveling 20+ yards in the air). If the Rams’ safeties can help prevent any big plays out of Buffalo, that will help keep this a low-scoring game.
