Two Stats I'd Like the Rams to improve on;

[DaveFan'51]

1)Last year the Rams were + 8 in Takeaways I'd Like to see them Double that this Year! And 2) The Rams had 5 Defensive Tds last year (2 via INT, 3 via FR ) I think we could do a lot better their under Williams D! What say? Do you have any special Stats you'd Like to see Improved on? Besides Won/Loss of course!

 

[RamsJunkie]

I would like to see Bradfords yards per completion go up I think there around 5.9% now. We have to much speed on this team for it to be that low.

 

[blue4]

I second the above YPC. And plays over 20 yrds.

 

[wsaladen]

More Big plays down field.

 

[BonifayRam]

Overall big improvement in run blocking & Pass protection from the starting two OG's is an area I would love to see major improvement. Rams starting out early in 2013 with 29 yrs old Chris Williams 6-6 320 & 33 yr old Harvey Dahl 6-6 307 & ended the season with Brandon Washington & Shelley Smith as starters.

This season the two OG's post will have 21 yr old Greg Robinson 6-5 330 & 26 yr old Rodger Saffold 6-5 332 starting very big overall improvement will be expected! Snead has beefed upped both OG posts with two massive much younger OG's in comparison to the slender/older Dahl & Williams. Zac should really enjoy himself this season.

For me it's YPA and penalties per game

 

[Akrasian]

I'm hoping for a big improvement in the "Wins" stat, both regular season and post season.

So you're one of THOSE people who thinks wins=success, huh?

Penalties and YPA

 

[badnews]

1) Penalties.
2) Dropped passes.

For me it's YPA and penalties per game

 

[Rams and Gators]

Opposition completion percentage, since the bye it was 72%, the worst for a full season is 71%.

Drop %.

I didn't know the opposing completion percentage was that high.... Thats ugly.

The flip side is that the scoring D was 9th over the same period, so if we do improve in that area, then boom elite D.

 

[LACHAMP46]

Dang it!! I wasn't even thinking penalties...oh well, seahawks had high penalties too, and you see where that got them..

I'll go rushing yards allowed for the Defense <100 ypg. And 2 1000 yard wr's for the offense (Quick & Britt or Cook).....how's that?

Not sure about total yards allowed by D, but since the bye we were 10th since 2000 (of 440) for yards per attempt over the last 6 games of a season (3.0 ypa).

 

[PrometheusFaulk]

Is it greedy to say sacks?

YPA is an obvious one, I agree with the consensus there. I think that'll come with the idea that short passing is no longer our crutch for a lack of run game. Also with opponent completion %.

 

[yrba1]

Throws on the intermediate field. Bradford does a good job distributing the ball 1-10 yds and 30+ yds downfield. Now he just needs to be brave enough to throw rainbows over linebackers.

In 2013 the Rams D allowed an average of 102.9 YPG. So the 100 YPG LACHAMP46 would like to see should be easy! with our improved D!
