Re: How do the Rams perform in poor weather?

How about this take. Rain and slippery conditions are a benefit to the offensive side and a detriment to the defensive side. The QB and WR know where the play is going. They can adjust their footing / pace before making a cut. The defense is reacting and usually has more problems with it.

Now, not saying we normally have the better offense, but without Hass and SA, I like our chances.
