1. Rams secondary vs Titans Receivers
The Rams secondary is already down one key man as E.J. Gaines will miss the rest of the season with a foot injury. With this injury the Rams secondary is already shifting players into different positions in hopes of getting a solid defensive core before the regular season. Last week the Titans passing offense was in tune as they only had four incomplete passes all game. The Titans also completed passes to 12 different receivers, which shows they are exploring their passing game. With that in mind, last year the Rams defense gave up the second highest completion percentage of 68.1 % to their opponents offense. A goal for the Rams secondary come sunday should be to hold the Titans completion percentage below 55%.
