[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 626921"] Cameron Lynch is most likely an upgrade over Ogletree in pass coverage but he´s not as good defending the run or rushing the passer. The Rams secondary is average at best and Joyner is a below-average starter that will be exploited by Cobb without any safety help. I agree that the Rams defensive line is better than the Seahawks or Chiefs one but it´s pretty close though. The Rams defense ranked 12th in TDs allowed in the red zone and 17th in points allowed after week 3. They will probably have improved their ranking after the Cardinals game but it´s far from impossible to score against them inside the 20. The Seahawks offense hasn´t been able to score a ton of points this season so far and the Cardinals offense hugley benefitted from playing terrible teams. The Rams defense did an impressive job vs. the Steelers even before Roethlisberger was injured, but trust me you haven´t faced an offense like the Packers one so far, especially at Lambeau Field. The Rams special teams have been above average so far but aside of the punt returned by Austin vs. the Seahawks haven´t had any explosive plays anymore. Teams have continued punting to Austin with him averaging 10.5 yards on those returns with two fair catches. FWIW it´s worth it was rookie David Johnson fumbling on the Cardinals kickoff to start the season. Zuerlein hasn´t been that great kicking outdoors where he has only made 71.9% of his field goals during his career though. Hekker is an above average punter but once again he´s not the best in the league. Austin is a big play threat but he´s only averaging 49.6 yards per game for his career. Gurley seems like the real deal but Mason and Cunningham don´t put any fear into opposing defenses (they´re averaging a combined 2.6 yards per carry this season). The Rams receiving corps is average at best. Foles is an average QB as well who will never even come to close to repeating his performance in 2013. I´m quite sure Sitton will be able to handle Brockers one-on-one. This means Linsley and Lang will double team Donald on every single snap. There´s no doubt in my mind that Donald is an All-Pro but trust me that he hasn´t faced a center-guard tandem nearly as good as Lang and Linsley so far this season. The Rams have allowed an average of 4.54 points on drives in the red zone with five TDs and eight FGs in 13 drives. While that is once again above average teams have been able to score on them. I wouldn´t rely on Rodgers turning the ball over as he hasn´t thrown a single interception at Lambeau Field since late in the 2012 (!!!) season. Overall, the Rams are a talented team with an exceptional defensive line and mostly average players at all other positions. The Packers are a superior team and should win this game by more than an score. [/QUOTE]
