It feels wrong to talk about an inside linebacker putting up a Pro Bowl campaign after six games. But that is what Los Angeles Rams linebacker Nate Landman deserves, particularly after a 17-tackle performance in Week 6.
When Los Angeles signed Landman as a free agent, he hadn't done much to impress fans. In many ways, he was a bigger, stronger, and more experienced version of what the Rams already had in Omar Speights. But he continues to make the case that some players are simply perfect fits in a new defensive system. Landman took command of defensive coordinator Chris Shula's squad quickly and looked like a major steal before the preseason arrived.
