Aaron Donald and the Defense

Despite having an offense that can’t sustain drives and score, the Rams defense has done a remarkably good job. In per game averages, the Rams defense ranks sixth in points, total yards and passing yards allowed per game, while owning a 16th-ranked run defense.

That’s something to hang your hat on. The Rams defense is not only good, it’s become one of the best in the league.

Even if that isn’t enough to sink your teeth into, consider that you have arguably the best defense player in the league on your side in Aaron Donald. He’s a guy that every offense in the league fears and has to game plan for.

The praise out there for the 25-year-old is enough to make a Rams fan blush.

The Rams defense as a whole has come together nicely under defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. At least the one thing going right for the Rams at the moment is the same thing that wins championships.
