Defense won more games than the offense

My point has been and will remain that the defense played poorly but the offense couldn't cover thier slack. The defense did it for them allll year long. If you wanna claim that the whole body of work is discounted by a single game then be my guest. But my retort is that the offense couldn't help out as they failed to do so all year. We can agree to disagree. No harm no foul

The way I look at it is the offense did not play well in at least half the games. The defense did not play well in 6 games. They had 4 games in common (both SF games, the Jets and the second Seattle game). On 3 of the other 4 bad offensive games, the Rams won 3, thanks to the defense. In 2 of the other games the defense played bad, the Rams won 1. So the defense pulled the offense over the line more than the offense pulled the defense over the line. But the Green Bay game? That's gotta be put on the defense.

  Michael Brockers: Matthew Stafford is ‘a step up’ from Jared Goff...

Rams431128March 06, 2021 06:22AM

  He's being modest if you ask me . Nm

Ram_Ruler375March 06, 2021 06:57AM

  what former Rams qb is Stafford NOT a cut above? ...lol

zn319March 06, 2021 07:31AM

  Given their performance against GB...

Saguaro709March 06, 2021 07:42AM

  I actually disagree here.

Ram_Ruler346March 06, 2021 07:53AM

  the offense was not "hot and cold" the OL got beat

zn256March 06, 2021 08:24AM

  The line definitely had 4 or so bad games

Ram_Ruler195March 06, 2021 08:43AM

zn209March 06, 2021 09:09AM

  Stafford was very good under pressure

Ram_Ruler247March 06, 2021 09:18AM

  Re: Who was pressured more? Only asking because

zn238March 06, 2021 09:47AM

  But pressure wasn't always high for goff.

dzrams237March 06, 2021 07:56AM

  Obviously, I'm talking about what happened in Green Bay, not their ranking for the season.

Saguaro269March 06, 2021 08:07AM

  If being the number one defense all season is a mirage after one playoff game

Ram_Ruler194March 06, 2021 08:31AM

  It equals what you said. It's mediocre, but that doesn't excuse the defense.

Saguaro270March 06, 2021 08:35AM

  We won't know the extent of what our issues were

Ram_Ruler187March 06, 2021 08:49AM

  Brockers had a really good season

zn293March 06, 2021 08:16AM

  Wrong

Ram_Ruler397March 06, 2021 08:33AM

  I think that's you projecting your opinion on to Brockers

zn313March 06, 2021 09:06AM

  I'm speculating

Ram_Ruler277March 06, 2021 09:15AM

  speculation is open-ended and accounts for all possibitlies

zn200March 06, 2021 09:52AM

  But your opinion isn't open ended

Ram_Ruler231March 06, 2021 10:01AM

  I said speculation should be not opinion

zn221March 06, 2021 10:06AM

  I'm not a great shot.

Ram_Ruler189March 06, 2021 10:11AM

  It's not just a way of acting as if opinion were truth

  Absolutely true. The difference is I'm not telling you what you can say

  Not sure what he's seeing. Maybe 3-4-5 years ago

JimYoungblood53262March 08, 2021 10:07PM

  Stafford is NOT better than Goff?

PHDram216March 09, 2021 06:39AM

  but Brockers also has good things to say about Goff fwiw
