The LA Rams defense has been getting to the opposing quarterback without the help of blitzes
The LA Rams defense is built to stop big plays from their opponent’s offense. Big plays can win or lose games for an NFL team. They happen when either a defender makes a mistake on coverage or tackle, or when the defense gamble and loses. So how to stop those big plays from happening? Don’t sell out to blitz the quarterback, for one thing.
That’s the goal of each and every NFL defense to date, but it’s much easier said than done.
