Barron to play Sunday, no GZ... If Barron is truly healthy

If Mark Barron is truly healthy and stays on the field for the duration of the 2018 season, I'm going to appreciate every snap of his.

He's a streaky player and when he's on his game, he can be a factor.

I'm sure all of us are excited to see him get back on the field. We don't know what we're going to get from him but I wouldn't be against him producing like he's capable of.

Run Stop Percentage
PFF’s “Run Stop Percentage” gives us a clear measure of a player’s effectiveness against the run on a per snap basis, that looks far beyond just the number of tackles made.

1. MARK BARRON, LOS ANGELES RAMS
PFF Grade: 83.7

Run Stop Percentage: 11.5 percent Rank #1
In his first full season at the 3-4 inside linebacker position, the former safety-turned-linebacker is proving to be an integral part of Wade Phillips’ defense in 2017.

Through seven games of the season, Barron has played a total of 165 snaps against the run and has produced 27 tackles and 19 stops.

Barron moved to linebacker full-time in 2016, and he has produced 52 total run stops since, the fourth-most among off-ball linebackers in that span.
