Movin the Chains Guys Give High Props to the Rams Oline!!

|
This past week they have been grading the Olines in the the NFL... Friday they gave their top five.
Jim Miller has the Rams at the # 3 spot and PK picks the Rams at the #2 spot!
Jim Miller says they have the "tons" of experience along the starting front line... some of his comments:
Loves the back ups! Evans, Edwards and Noteboom... will be some great position battles with some eventual starters coming from this group.
... Loves their versatility at several positions
... were 8th in explosive plays... top five in the RZ even with the starters down!
... were first in sacks allowed... again with backups playing alot of the time.
... 3rd down efficiency, they were 15th in the NFL... need to get better there and at rushing the ball
... 7th in total offense... good overall but will get better!
Pat Kirwin has the Rams at #2... said going into grading each team he never would have thought he would have graded the Rams Oline this high but ...
.... Really likes Noteboom and Evans... says they are not back ups to him, they are coming to camp to be starters.
... Best group of pass protectors in the NFL .... best team in sacks allowed per pass attempt.
... Great in Blitz protection, allowed a sack in 1:30 blitzes called.
... On reason he graded the Oline so high was the QB (said he's Ok... Not a Drew Brees or Lamar or the big names, so the line stepped up and played well
regardless.
... They need to become a better run team, but he recognized Gurley's injury in that department. He expects them to be much better there.
... Overall he gave them the high grade because of Whitworth and competition between Noteboom and Evans... he thinks they are both gonna be terrific
players.
High praise from two analysts I like and respect!
Our Rams.... It's a controlled Obsession!
