Rams have our number (1 Viewer)

Their offense is a terrible matchup for the Saints. The Saints’ defense biggest weakness in the passing game is defending the slot and that’s their main bread and butter in the passing game. They also have a decent running game and the Saints have had their issues defending the run.

But to be fair, DA’s Saints with Andy Dalton beat them in the dome two years ago. But I think they were missing some key players.
 
I think for the 2nd year in a row and 3 out of 5 years the Rams could effectively end our season.
Considering the head coach we had for the last couple years, and the difference in energy that we've seen between the players before and after his departure, I'd say this statement is almost moot.

I agree with you. Our pass defense against Nacua and Cupp will present problems. I was at the game last year in Los Angeles. If I remember correctly the tight ends hurt us last year? I hope I'm wrong but I agree with this poster this is not a good match-up for us. Let's see if Rizz can get more out of these guys.
 
I think the Saints are a bad matchup for the Rams and we will be treated to nice revenge W this weekend.

I fully expect our run game will be too much for them to handle.
 
We are actually 3-3 in the regular season vs them since 2016 and won the last time we played them in the Dome with Andy Dalton at QB and Dennis Allen as our HC.

So it’s not some lopsided affair. Actually pretty evenly matched.
 
This is very close to a playoff game. It could decide either team's season. At 5-6 and a tight division race, the Rams cant afford to lose either. They went on a run when they got healthy late last year and I heard that narrative last week about them too. Thankfully they ran into Saquan and Philly. If they drop another game to the Saints, I don't see that run happening again.

Meanwhile we are flirting with the idea of going on a run ourselves. Even though the Rams aren't a winning team, a win against them would be the most significant win this team has seen since Payton. Going 3-0 heading into a very winnable game against the Giants would put a lot of wind behind the sails. Washington is struggling lately. A 5 game win streak would make that GB game look a lot different.
 
Whether it's the Rams regular season game where Drew broke his thumb to the "No call" to last year they have our number. I don't think we will slow down Kupp or Nocua. The question is can we match them? Their D front got crushed last week but a they are young, talented and have high motors.

I think for the 2nd year in a row and 3 out of 5 years the Rams could effectively end our season.
Or four out of five years if you think about the 2020 playoffs. We beat Seattle in divisional.
