The Rams return to the Edward Jones Dome on Sunday to take on the 3-5 Bears. Here are three keys that could improve St. Louis to 4-1 at home this season.
1) Fix the penalty issue
The Rams have been jumping offsides at an unusually high clip lately. Head coach Jeff Fisher has cited 12 in the past few weeks as far too many, and five of those flags came in last week’s game in Minnesota.
As defensive end William Hayes put it, the D-line needs to make sure its focus is in the right place for every snap, because those mental lapses have put the club in poor position.
