Joe Curley @vcsjoecurleyWade Phillips opens up his weekly presser with "All right? What's wrong with the run defense, right?"
"It's all on coaching," Phillips continues the Rams coaching trend this week of accountability. Says it's always on him.
"Guy's haven't played this defense together," Phillips explains. Says group hadn't seen looks Washington gave them.
Phillips said Ogletree and Barron improved as the game went on. "We started playing better as the game went on."
Phillips calls SF QB Brian Hoyer "capable." Compliments RBs. "They've got to be licking their chops."
Phillips thinks Donald held up physically. "He was in football-type shape, which is why we were able to play him" so much.
Phillips mentions how Aaron Donald nearly intercepted the pitch on the first Thompson TD run. "Nobody does that."
"Guy's haven't played this defense together," Phillips explains. Says group hadn't seen looks Washington gave them.
