Just read Wed. injury report and noticed Jonathan Stewart on it. Isn't he JL's backup? If the Rams start Spoon, JL and AO, and Stewart can't go, that leaves just Bates and Ray Ray. What if Spoon or JL get dinged? They gonna play the rest of the game with just 4 LB'ers? Seems awfully thin at LB right now.

Yes it does (seem thin). If JL gets dinged, Spoon would take over in the middle, and I guess Bates would take over on the outside. Or they could play predominantly nickel and let a corner finish out the game. I don't think we're more thin than any other team though. Just way more inexperienced.
