The good news is that I see only 2 remaining teams that can compete with the Rams in a shootout, Saints and Chiefs. And neither of them has a decent scoring D. Meaning, Rams are better balanced than either and should be slight favorites.

The bad news is that our passing D needs some work. We gave up 322 yards to Case Keenum when he only had 25 minutes of possession. Can you imagine what Brees or Mahomes could do? Unless we see some drastic improvement before then?

Don’t know what has happened to Troy Hill. Who IS this imposter wearing #32?

Run D vs Broncos was highly effective. That’s encouraging. Can Talib return in time for the Chiefs? If so, that would be huge.

Sooooo...

I find myself conflicted this morning. On the one hand I can see the Rams finishing with a 14-2 record and frankly being favored in every single game remaining.

On the other hand, I see a glaring weakness at edge and now at CB in Troy Hill. There are QB’s remaining on our schedule that are capable of shredding this current pass D and more will be there to greet us in the playoffs.

I’m not sure that this pass D can get us to the Promised Land. Even our fabulous O can only take us just so far.
