Latest starting LB's injury news puts Rams in a bind they'd rather avoid

The Los Angeles Rams have been pleased with the performance from their starting inside linebacker duo, Nate Landman and Omar Speights. Landman is second in tackles, but first in terms of fumble recoveries.

He has that "peanut punch" that has already helped preserve a victory. And Speights has been a worthy teammate.

Until he fell to injury in Week 5.

Rams LB Omar Speights suffered a high ankle sprain vs San Fran, Sean McVay says, and sounded pessimistic about his status vs. Baltimore

That places a tough decision at the feet of the coaching staff.
