With the biggest matchup of the year looming, you could be forgiven for being a little excited and nervous about what’s going to happen in Falcons-Rams. There are so many matchups to break down, but here’s one I’m feeling good about, and one that is causing me some great concern.
One reason to feel confident: The Rams run defense
Los Angeles has actually allowed the fifth-highest yards per game average on the ground to opponents this season, with a whopping average of 122 yards per contest. That is music to the ears of Falcons fans, who surely would like to see Steve Sarkisian and company let Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman run all day.
