Earlier today, I looked at what Sean McVay’s hire does for the offensive core of the Los Angles Rams. The offensive side of the ball is what needs the most improvement, but the defense needs work as well.
I’ve already touched on why I like the Wade Phillips hire, and a lot of this stems from my thoughts there. The Rams have flaunted themselves as an ‘elite’ defense for several years now, but have never finished above 13th in points per game under Jeff Fisher.
Wade Phillips just completed a stint with the Denver Broncos where he coached one of the most menacing defenses in recent memory.
