QB Pressure (1 Viewer)

I feel this will be key to us winning this game. I was at the Eagles game and to me it did not seem like we pressured Foles very much. How does the Rams O-line hold up to pressure compared to the Eagles O-line ? Will be be able to get to Goff without blitzing?

We got more pressure to force some bad throws in second half, but didn’t sack him. Have to give Foles credit, he gets rid of the ball very quickly.

They didn’t sack Foles, but the pressure definitely affected his throws as the game went on.

It's great if you can sack the QB. But if you can "affect" the QB it can be nearly as effective. We didn't sack Foles or get too many hits but he gets the ball out quick and we were getting close enough that I think the ball came out maybe quicker than he actually wanted for most of the game after that 1st quarter.

Thinking back the first Rams game, when the Rams came back to eat away the Saints lead the rush was getting close to Goff a lot but he would stand in and get the ball out at the last second. Was frustrating.

We need to have him feel us if we don't actually sack him or they will put up numbers. The Rams have a pretty solid OL, which is to me a big part of why their offense is what it is. They have the talent at skill positions but the OL gives Goff the time for all those route concepts to develop.

I think we should dial up a blitz or two early. If we can get a sack or two early the crowd will ramp it up to a whole new level and we will get in Goff's head clock. This is what I am hoping happens!
