The run was a constant problem for the Rams' D this year and as Atlanta showed us, it will really show up in the playoffs.
So as I contemplate (and waffle!) about the Rams' off season priorities, more and more I think that most attention needs to be paid to the Defense: the run D in particular.
From my armchair, I think it starts in the middle, and that means at NT. After that, I sort of feel like perhaps Quinn was a liability at OLB in the run game. I'm just not sure about Barron and Ogletree. Ogletree is a good sized guy, but is not a great tackler or a thumper. Barron gets overwhelmed by OGs and Centers. So perhaps we're going to have to trade out Barron for a different kind of ILB that is better at run stuffing. Or maybe a very good NT will solve much of the problem.
Any thoughts on this?
