PFF put out a piece about a week ago and it broke down each NFL defense and more or less where they ranked. For the Los Angeles Rams (you can read more below) the defense overall wasn’t awful, but their coverage unit seemed to really struggle. I recall LA giving up a long third down to the Baltimore Ravens, and I remember the Detroit Lions scoring on a fourth down in the Wild Card loss. Can you imagine if LA’s coverage unit had just been even a tad better?
We’re onto a new year and hopefully the moves the Rams made will help, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
