Predictions: St. Louis Rams vs. Green Bay Packers
— We’ve heard so much about the St. Louis Rams defense coming to town this weekend that you’d think they were the reincarnation of the ’85 Bears or the 2000 Ravens, or at least the 2013 Seattle Seahawks, or at the bare minimum a top 10 defense this season.Shawn (4-0)
Wrong. They aren’t even that.
The mighty St. Louis Rams rank 16th in total defense. They rank a slightly better 13th in points allowed. While ranking 14th against the pass, the Rams’ real weakness on defense has been the run, where they rank 26th, allowing over 120 yards per game. That is a troubling weakness when you are facing the third-ranked rushing offense in the league at their house.
