Osi Umenyiora Not only put us in the contender group, but gave our D and D coach some love as claiming us being the best D In the league. Was awesome seeing the Rams get some love on national television.

I'm wondering if he would have said the same thing if he was still on the Giants.

Best in the NFL... that's pretty high praise. I'd be thrilled if we lived up to that.

Jerome Bettis joked at him being biased, but I don't think anyone can argue that they are not far away from being the best. Even if he is biased, I'm glad to have a biased Rams fan as an analysist. Haha

I hope the players don't hear these positive comments and buy in to the hype. It seemed like there was a lot of focus on nicknames and the team bought into the hype in 2014...and the front four started with a thud.(How many weeks was it before they got a sack?). My hope is the D just comes out in 2015 and kicks serious ass; and let everybody else focus on nicknames and how great they can become as a defense.

The Rams have been so bad for so long that it doesn't seem possible that they could be good again. Strange how that works. In the 70s there D was so good that it didn't seem possible to even imagine a Rams team that had a bad one, now it is completely opposite. Even when I can see it coming it doesn't seem real.

I keep having flashback of dumb plays over the last ten years with defenders not knowing where they were supposed to be. Hasletts D really was a nightmare. I think I need a detox or mind cleanse so I can fully enjoy what is about to happen.

Agreed, ultimately this D's fame and fortune will largely depend upon a group of virgins, also known affectionately as, the offensive line and unknown backfield. :cautious: The 85 Bears averaged just over 28 pts a game in support of their D....I like that number as an objective.
