The only real problem with the Rams is the DC. Everyone else is working hard to stay on top. Good enough Morris is the only one out of step. Instead he blames the players, hence the great purge that is only on the defensive side of the ball. If they were going to purge the defense they should have started with the DC.
This team still has a core of players to keep this team competitive. This is a tough schedule they are facing. But as long as Kupp, Stafford and AD hold up the Rams will always have a chance. Bottom line is that the Rams aren't outclassed by most of the NFL, but they are going to need luck and solid play to get to the playoffs. Right now I see the Seahawks and Rams as the primary contenders for the division. Darnold as talented as he is, doesn't look like a starting caliber QB.
The Rams need to focus on winning the NFCW then see how the chips fall in the playoffs.
