Defense is ranked #13 this year

There's a bunch of playoff sniffing teams ranked worse than that. At least 6 that I counted, including the Lions who are ranked #31.

It's tough when an injury tsunami hits one unit, especially a unit so vital like the O line. Hard to foresee that.

BUT-----it can be rebuilt while trying to keep core players on both O and D. The D line is showing it can handle the work without Donald. So fix the O line and it will be playoffs once again for the Rams.
