Bold Prediction: Trumaine Johnson records his 8th Interception on the season

The last time a Rams player had eight interceptions on the season was Oshiomogho Atogwe back in 2007. Johnson will join the ranks of Atogwe as he will get his 8th interception Sunday. In fact this will be Johnson’s five straight game with an Interception. With those stats he sure must be going to the Pro Bowl, wrong. The likes of Sherman was picked over him who only has 2 interceptions on the season.

Gabbert has thrown six interceptions in seven starts, but has yet to face the powerful Rams defensive line. With Defensive Player Of The Year candidate Aaron Donald along with his company, Gabbert will at least make multiple mistakes. Trumaine Johnson picks off Gabbert and will walk to the sideline and be congratulated by his teammates this Sunday.
