Rams Pass Rush?

[paceram]

I didn't get to see any of the game and am wondering if the Rams got any kind of pass rush today (I thought I read where the Rams Defense had 1 sack and of course in my great football wisdom I predicted they would get seven but at least I was close!). I am beginning to think we may not have to worry about breaking any NFL Sack records this season (But, that is ok as long as they keep winning!).

Quinn get held on every play and the refs refuse to call it! What can you do?

2 games and zero sacks by the D-line. I'm thinking the single season team sack record is safe until next year at least.

Everyone knows we are a great pass rushing team so they are going to play us that way. Quick short passes, screens, running the ball more, etc...

The pass defense in BOTH games has been very good. Giving up 175 yards today and holding Vincent Jackson to 4 catches for 51 yards is a good performance.

As it has been stated, teams just aren't gonna be giving this pass rush the chance to impact the game. Too many quick throws, and so far, so good. Nothing has beaten them deep.

Yup. But once this team gets a lead, things are gonna get stupid violent.

I think our whole defensive line is more that just great passrushers ..... Brockers was held on many plays run and pass.....same with Quinn and Langford. ..... if we don't get a sack or tackle..... we cannot get a call.... it's frustrating. .... but I agree with you on everything. ..lol . just frustrated. .. Go Rams. .....

That's the real key right there---to build a lead sufficiently high that the opponent is forced to become one-dimensional. Then we get to see The Mighty One ransacking the opposing backfield.

it was ridiculous. I was watching on my couch with a Skins fan. I kept rewinding plays saying "Can you believe this Shit?!"

I don't like that McCown completed 76.2% of his passes after Cassel completed 68% of his last week, but in the end it's the scoreboard that counts.

Imagine this, our D Line isn't the group we thought was going to dominate from the get go and other position groups are stepping it up. Imagine when they start to 'click' again, wowzers...!

They are getting the ball out quick, and everything is underneath stuff. With the exception of the one catch by Jackson with Gaines draped all over him, and the last completion to Evans, while they were in their prevent, neither the Vikings last week, or TB today, have done anything to hurt us with their passing game.

Now if you want to talk about the gouging runs they continue to give up.......

 

[JIMERAMS]

Our d-line is off balance right now. Can't stop the run consistently so they can't play the pass. Donald is a animal that guy is so quick off the snap its crazy.

That is not tough to do with so many short throws in front of the DBs. They have Gaines playing far enough off that it is an automatic 6 yards every play.
