While I don't agree with much of what's below I do agree that DC Morris's defense is not running well & his secondary outside of Jalen Ramsey is performing poorly. I would start the Rookie Robert Rochell over starting outside corner David Long & insure DB Terrell Burgess gets about 20 more snaps @ safety in place of 3rd safety Nick Scott & in relief of the two starters who have been performing less than good for the most part when possible.
Here's another point of view.

Joe was listening to a podcast from The Ringer called “The Ringer Gambling Show” where Joe learned a lot about the Rams defense.
Former Bucs coach Raheem Morris is the new Rams defensive coordinator. And his defense, while undefeated, is off to a shaky start.
Ben Solak, talking to co-host Warren Sharp, explained how Raheem’s defense is not a good matchup against the Bucs.
Sharp noted that thus far the Rams have faced off against place-setting Bears quarterback Andy Dalton and brittle Carson Wentz. And against both embattled quarterbacks, the Rams defense struggled to get off the field.
Facing Dalton, Sharp points out, the Bears had seven drives start in Chicago territory and ended in Los Angeles territory. The Bears punted once on eight drives.
Against Wentz, the Rams allowed Indianapolis seven drives to begin in Indianapolis real estate and end in Rams territory.
Solak noted that the Rams were the last NFL team to force an opponent on a three-and-out this season.
Solak explained the Rams defense is made to bend not break. That they will virtually allow a team to march down the field with dink-and-dunk passes but once it enters the red zone, they better start banking on field goals.
Solak doesn’t believe this strategy will stop the Bucs. Solak said no quarterback the past 20 years has feasted on short passes more than Tom Brady. And when the Bucs get in the red zone, it will be a matchup nightmare for the Rams.
But Joe thinks Solak is onto something. If the bungling Bears can move the ball on the Rams, and the Colts with brittle Carson Wentz can move the ball, surely the Bucs with Brady and his ridiculously deep trough of receivers ought to be able to move the ball on Raheem’s defense.

Of course, the podcast was likely recorded without the knowledge that furniture-tossing, bicycle-throwing receiver Antonio Brown will possibly miss the game after testing positive for The Sickness.
