Interesting topic.
I am going to reverse it.
How did the Rams do with injuries on the OL from 2006-2015? I don't mean a relatively healthy OL, which includes a player out now and then. Like in 2017. But an extensively injured OL with more than just a couple of replacements, or with guys playing hurt. I also count lines full of rookies, like 2015, as lesser OLs--a rookie here and there is okay but 4 very inexperienced starters isn't.
So I have 3 categories.
1. Games from 2006-2015 where Rams play either a back-up caliber #2 qb or a starting caliber qb, AND an extensively injured and/or very inexperienced OL: overall W/L record
2. Games from 2006-2015 where Rams play a back-up caliber #2 qb and a relatively healthy, intact and veteran OL: overall W/L record
2. Games from 2006-2015 where Rams play a starting caliber qb and a relatively healthy, intact and veteran OL: overall W/L record
For the record, category #3 includes the last 6 games of 2006, all of 2010, the 2nd set of 8 games from 2012, and the first 7 games of 2013.
Category 1: 28/86 -- 24.5% winning percentage
Category 2: 4/5 -- 44% winning percentage
Category 3: 18/18/1 -- 50.6% winning percentage
BTW if you add the 2017 games to Category 3 it becomes 24/20/1 or a winning percentage of 57.3%
If I were to include 2016 I would just make a separate category for OL + rookie qb.
