Los Angeles Rams showed the NFL world that they are the class of the NFC when they prevailed in a Thursday Night Football shootout in week 4. They kick off a three game road trip in week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks.While the Rams week 5 matchup provides an opportunity to widen their already large early season advantage in the division http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-john-kelly-jersey , they have some interesting games lying ahead.Remaining 2018 OpponentsWeekOpponentCurrent RecordWeekOpponentCurrent RecordWhile I’m not personally concerned about the Rams road trip, I am concerned about the two games following that stretch. The Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints both have their flaws, but can also both best the Rams on any given Sunday.The Rams could realistically head into their matchup with the Packers at 7-0, but they could also stumble in Seattle or Denver and have a loss or two. We all know what this team is capable of, but there’s a sense that we will learn more about this team as they hit the road in the coming weeks. The Super Bowl turned out to be purely a defensive battle between two teams struggling offensively. The Rams and Patriots both won some of Sosa’s matchups to watch."The Los Angeles Rams and New England Patriots battled it out in an extremely low scoring game that ended 13-3. Super Bowl 53 turned out to be a chess match between two brilliant head coaches that both sputtered offensively, though both thrived defensively.Let’s revisit the matchups to watch:DT Aaron Donald vs QB Tom BradyThe best player on the field (Aaron Donald, not Tom Brady) actually had a relatively quiet game by his standards. It wasn’t Donald who impacted the game a ton on the defensive line Womens Troy Hill Jersey , but it was his linemates Ndamukong Suh, Michael Brockers, and Dante Fowler Jr who wreaked havoc. Now, part of the reason that happened is because of the attention Donald garners, but the remainder of the defensive line really hit another level of play in the Super Bowl.ILB’s Cory Littleton/Mark Barron vs RB James WhiteThe duo of Cory Littleton and Mark Barron were fantastic in the biggest game of the year. Both guys were instrumental in helping stuff the run, but not only that, they were arguably even better in coverage. Littleton notched himself a deflected interception in the first quarter and Barron nearly got one for himself later in the game. Both guys had multiple other plays in coverage. Lastly Robert Woods Jersey , James White was essentially a complete non-factor in the game as he had a total of nine yards.CB Nickell Robey-Coleman vs WR Julian EdelmanI expected Nickell Robey-Coleman to follow Julian Edelman all over the field, but that wasn’t exactly the case. Edelman had snaps versus every Rams cornerback, but not only that, even FS Lamarcus Joyner and the inside linebacker duo got him in coverage. Edelman was unstoppable to the tune of 10 receptions for 141 yards. He also won the Super Bowl 53 MVP award.WR Josh Reynolds vs CB Jason McCourtyJosh Reynolds had a quiet game as he only pulled in three receptions for 28 yards, though it could and probably should have been much more productive. There were at least three instances (drag route, deep in, hook) where QB Jared Goff completely missed a wide open Reynolds http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-andrew-whitworth-jersey , which is very unfortunate. One of the misses turned out to be the Stephon Gilmore interception that more-or-less sealed the game.TE Gerald Everett vs CB J.C. Jackson/SS Patrick ChungThis was one of the places the Rams really lost the game in my opinion. Gerald Everett had a grand total of one target and came away without even one reception. The Rams really dropped the ball here as Everett can be a dangerous weapon and they didn’t even bother to take advantage of the matchup.Rams’ OL/QB Jared Goff vs Patriots’ DLYeah, you can chalk this up as the biggest “L” of the game. The Rams’ offensive line was horrific. They allowed Goff to get sacked four times, though he was nearly pressured/hit on every dropback. Not only that, but the running game was non-existent and only averaged three yards-per-carry. The Patriots’ Dont’a Hightower was possessed and unblockable.
