Earlier this year, the Rams STs were a significant weakness.
There has been significant improvement, and special teams are now quite good.
Football is the ultimate team game, you can't win a SB if one part of your team is just not good enough, as shown by GB STs yesterday.

This was one of my main concerns with this team and now it feels like special teams are now a strength.
What a relief!

Many of us felt the Rams traded the wrong punter and most of us (including yours truly) were really upset that the Rams traded Bojorquez to Green Bay. Well, this is what happen. One of the reasons the Bills did not keep Bojorquez was because he was not a good holder and they wanted a punter that was better in that area. Thus the Packers & kicker Mason Crosby have struggled & Bojorquez was really slow on that punt that was blocked, really slow, so it now appears the Rams kept the right punter in Johnny Hekker for other underlying reasons.

I saw a STs disaster costing Rams a chance at the Lombardi. Glad that Rams improved, it happened to the Packers yesterday

I'm still scared to death if we have to field an onside kick but everything else has been awesome lately.

Packer fans are lamenting how important special teams are. Absolutely cost them the game. No ifs ands or buts about that one.

I think that mistake they had in the Cardinals game last month got their attention. Shouldn't be a problem.
