Rams pass rush is at its best on third down

The Rams defense took a hit when Dante Fowler Jr. opted to leave for Atlanta in free agency, signing a contract with the Falcons. He was the team’s best edge rusher in 2019 and a key part of the front seven.

The pass rush hasn’t been great through eight weeks, but it has come alive recently, led by Aaron Donald and his nine sacks. It’s taken a host of players to pressure the quarterback, including Leonard Floyd, Justin Hollins, Ogbonnia Okoronkwo and Michael Brockers.

Unless it's 3rd and 20+! Then our D has some problems! Have we ever stopped anyone on a 3rd and 20+?

I would love to know our stats on 3rd and 4th and longer than 15 yards.

#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
