The Rams have major major major question marks at lb, and dl

Just a ton of unknowns. My fingers are crossed but how in the world you can make these declarations without knowing how the Rams are going to look up front is beyond me. But carry on 43. This is a yearly thing with you

I just hope you are right.

What? I’m just quoting AD here, Speed.

Where to start?

Gaines vs “regular season” Suh.
Fowler for a whole season and he’s been on an ascending trajectory since he arrived.
Matthews at Edge vs Ebu.
Kiser as a 2 down ILB vs injured Barron.
More experienced JFM, Joseph-Day, in DL rotation.
Peters now used properly by Wade.
Healthy Talib.
Weddle vs Joyner.
Healthy Brockers.
Rapp and Long to provide scheme flexibility and improved depth.

Each of the above seems like an upgrade to me. And last year’s season ending D was playing pretty darned well, as you know.

I think that we’re flirting with a top 3-5 D for this season.

Thus, my optimism.
