Although it might take awhile for the defense to gel, being that it is a new system and there is going to be alot of rookies involved, I think it is a faster, more aggressive bunch and we will even have some depth with Jackson and Jones on the DL. If we can stay healthy, we will do something really special this year. I can feel it...Opening day in Philly will set the tone for the season I believe...Hostile envirorment. Physical defense. We lay an ass whippin' on em and the NFL will know the Rams are back and mean business. Ladies and gentlemen.....Commence ass whippin!

Arch isnt no slouch you can be sure he is in top shape and has been studying his play book. I think that he will most likely end up starting come opeaning day cause the guy is a work horse. Besides Lovie's system is realy a simple one which doesnt involve a whole lot of blitzing and plays lots of zone. The Rams bigest problem last year wasnt the run it was passing thay got shreaded in the long and short game on passing downs. With the additions of Aeneas, Kim, and Arch in the secondary and with Fields, Davis, Polley, and Allen at backer not only are we faster but we have players that can cover all over the field and can also rush the passer.

No matter how good the Corners are you cant always leave them on an Island.... We need some sort of Pass rush. If an nfl quaterback has time to throw the ball....it doesnt really matter who it is we get burned..... We need pressure....which we didnt have last year....This is my biggest concern for the defense...
Go Rams.

Defensive players don't take as long to come up to speed. I have always thought that it was more productive to draft defence with your highest choices and get offence in later rounds or through free-agent system. Offencive players take at least 1 year to have very much of an impact. I think these young players are going to do more than well, I think they are going to kick-butt!!! They will have the luxury of not having to play mistake-proof football. With this offence they can be more aggressive because they won't be playing from behind. Also this is not Bud Carson's defence. Don't get me wrong I think Bud was great and I miss him, but his was a very complicated scheme. This is not. It may take a few games to really come togather but they are going to put some hurt on some people this year and it's going to be fun to watch.
It's time to break out a can of wip-ass GO RAMS!!!

We're on our way!
D is looking g-o-o-d!
I really liked what they did last night against the Chargers [hey, that game was a Ram win at the end of regulation time, ok? :mad: Okeyyy?!?] Holcomb holding during the winning FG, BAH!!! Big deal! :p
With every exhibition game the defense has really shown improvement and determination to support the "greatest show on earth." All we need is to get it on the road now.
So it sounds simplistic but, we're on our way! :mad: GO DEEE!!! :mad:

You're right, the D is looking good. But I am a little worried about not getting any sacks. We can't expect Winstrom to get all of them; and right now that's how it looks. Hopefully Chidi will take care of that once he is in game shape. But I am really happy with the D; a lot better than last year.

Enter Grant Wistrom!...
Good, strong performance by Rams D yesterday against the Eagles, no doubt about it! In fact, I was kind of surprised! Good, steady pressure on containing McNabb from running wild --for most of the game anyway. They even sacked him a few times!
Enter Wistrom Grant. Watch out! :p
GO RAMS!!!

Defense
They looked good but i will need a couple more games to gain some confidence in them..I still suffer from anxiety attacks from last year when the other team has the ball...Haha...Faster and more aggressive is all I wanted and it looks like that is what we are gonna get!

by GuestI am typing this as I watch but my mind is made up as far as Bulger. He is pretty darn good He is an accident looking for a place to happen but the kid can throw. It's too bad this defense is so bad because if they were just an average defense then we may have a chance. These keystone players on our defense are always out of position and always lost. They are terrible tacklers and the act like they don't give a damn. Our offense can get it done. They need to jell but I think they will improve while our defense will keep stinking up the place. I still say there is a leadership problem on that team which is why our special teams are bad and the team always looks like its pre-season. Martz needs to light a fire under his coach’s asses hot enough so the effect will ripple through each and every unit. Cannot believe this defense I don't think there is a player on that unit that knows what down it is. This is quite possibly the worst defense I have seen the Rams field with the possible exception of 2000. Well Saints got the ball near our goal line again so I will sign out now.
Wait maybe leadership problem is not the way to express it. I think we have a disciplin problem on this team.-

by r8rh8rmike3rd and 7 for the Faiders on their own 37 with 2:50 on the clock. After all the horrible play, stupid penalties and a seemingly impossible game to win, how heartbreaking was it to fail to make a stop on that play? A chance at redemption squandered. This was a very painful, cruel loss.

by 01d 0rd3rOur defense is obviously much improved this year. So the question the comes to mind is who is our most valuable Defender? This one isnt just for the players, Coaches come up with the schemes and game plans so I will include them too. So who do we think is the biggest reason for our defensive success.Flajoe1.25%1Spags13.75%11Laurenitus50.00%40Hall6.25%5Atogwe3.75%3Long13.75%11Robbins8.75%7Bartell1.25%1Fletcher1.25%1

by Guam rammerWow i bet we get the 1st down if they gave the ball to Jax. But instead its shotgun, three wide and Jax just stays back to block. If we run it and they stop us with 4th and 1...hell run it again. Good spirited play by the D, and i'm happy about that but i think we gave this one away. Thanks Donnie Avery!!!

by HornedHellWith so many new faces on the defense and with a handful of them being rookies, what is a realistic goal this D should strive for? I just cant imagine it being as bad as last year. That seemed like a total lack of effort and motivation was the cause...Should we expect a slow start where we could give up some points, or will the offense get out ahead and then the D can play more wide open and get away with making some mistakes..It will be interesting...
