    @ NWO: I like the name. The Rams’ defenders rally to the ball and mob the ballcarrier.
    Of course, that moniker is a takeoff on “The Mod Squad.” I remember the TV series, so that dates me.

    Rams better practice in one of those super huge freezers where they store vaccines. High temp at Lambeau field Saturday is going to be in the 20’s. If Goff had problems completing a pass in perfect conditions Green Bay will be a nightmare. If Wolford’s stinger is not to serious I start him. The Rams also have to activate Bortles and probably will de-activate a DB. When you have a defense like the Rams you always have the punchers chance. This defense needs a name. You know. Like The Fearsome Foursome, The Steel Curtain, The No Name Defense, The Killer B’s, The Purple Gang etc.
