Its because it a very rare thing for the Rams to have one. Its been well over a decade since we had one that was NFL professional grade.But this years Mob Squad has an opportunity at greatness.This Wade Phillips led defense is loaded with talent. If they can continue to build on their week one performance the sky's the limit.While I am excited about our new found passing game it's the D that's got me ecstatic.
I get really excited about our "D" when I stop and think, last week, against the Colts, Our defensive starter's where "Rusty" due to lack of Play in the pre season, AND Donald wasn't even in the game! " LOOK-OUT REDSKIN'S it's going to be like ' the Sand-Creak Massacre' all over again!
Last week they made big plays, but they also gave up some stuff and had some difficulties in coverage over the middle. I am sure Wade's going to be all over those weaknesses they showed, due to the Skins and their TE group, but it is a bit of a concern. Skins TEs vs our LB/S group is a mismatch in their favor.
But that's ok, we have the edge just about everywhere else. And we have Wade and a very strong staff prepping these guys. I'm confident the Rams will keep the Skins below 17ish.

They did give up some big plays in the first quarter. Early second quarter Joyner's deflection saved another one when the game was still close. That ball was underthrown. Could have been trouble had been a little out in front of the WR. Seemed to be some big holes in the secondary. They are going to need a better pass rush to keep Cousins off balance. He looked bad against the Eagles but, they got pressure on him. Donald should help with pressure. The jury is still out for me on the defense. Keeping the Skins out of the end zone when they move the ball will be the difference.
