That they can play well while behind too.

Something that has been said this year is our defense plays well with the lead in situations where we can make a team one dimensional.

They showed yesterday that even against a team that has been to the past two Super Bowls, they can give a failing offense every opportunity to stay in the game.

Its just such a shame the performance was wasted. It was out best defensive performance of the year IMO

i'm still disturbed that we allowed a team to run the ball for over 100 yards, ..not is not accustom to being a running the ball.

Come playoff time, .. we could see another Rams 2019 playoff game from an NFC team that runs for 200-300 yards and we're outta the playoffs. ..

Only thing the defense showed is Micha Parson....Love this guy. He comes to play every play. The guy you want walking down an alley with you. You know if something goes down he won't be half way down the alley running in the opposite direction.https://encrypted-tbn0.***NOT-ALLOWED***/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQHOy8Fp5seDfI7BTCB1F9z9xaaDY6BQlbOSA&usqp=CAU

One of those plays was a 33 yard end around to Hill.

Excellent post. Totally agree. Such an excellent defensive performance wasted.

Without MP the score wouldnt have been even close, and we wouldnt have only 3 losses on the season thus far.
Think he even rolled his eyes at one point when the cameras were focused on him.
Help is coming MP,, just keep carrying the load.... they might even ask you to start taking some offensive snaps.

Both Gallimore and Trysten Hill are still so raw and under developed- so much mass time lost may hamper them both as they try to re-start and return to form
They will be fresher bodies down the stretch and maybe they will occasional flash.

I'm looking more forward to the return of Dlaw and Gregory. ...

Yes. Very concerned about our run D. We lucked out getting Parsons. Our LB corp is full of JAGS now. It's one of our top needs next year.

We were also tentative in terms of trying to tackle Hill. Instead of just tackle along with team swarming to tackle. Players were sitting back afraid of him and waiting for Hill to make a move. That's a sure way to give up more yards.

agree. I was extremely impressed with the defense. Can’t imagine if Tank and Gregory would’ve played…

I don’t know if the defense played excellent football yesterday. Or if Kansas City is as bad as I think they are. Our Offense had very similar numbers But the haters come out. Every chance they can

or Green Bay. Think the game plan was to dare them to run, take our chances there, rather then the explosive passing plays. Let's see how our run defense is once DLaw returns.
