The numbers just speak for themselves…
1st Qtr Rams Titans
TTL Offense 25 100
1st Downs 2 6
Rushing yards 10 48
Penalty yards 25 10
At The Half
TTL Offense 84 226
1st Downs 4 13
Rushing yards 33 76
Penalty yards 25 15
Nick Foles played the entire 1st quarter. He went 3 of 7 for 18 yards. He had a pick 6 and his QB rating was an abysmal 10.7. He missed badly on multiple passes. The Rams offense didn’t give up any sacks, but they also didn’t move the line for our running backs.
The Rams defense was terrible. The Titans O-line was constantly creating big holes up front and the Rams defensive secondary missed many first contact tackles. We were looking for improvement in this the 2nd preseason game, but we didn’t get it. At the half the score is 20-0 Titans (could have been worse; an open Titan receiver dropped a TD pass).
Kicker Zuerlein shanked what would have been a 52 yard field goal and punter Hekker chimed in with a miskick giving the Titans possession at mid-field. My halftime grade for the Rams is a D (poor). In the second have the first stringers are out so this game is effectively over. Next week we will again be looking for improvement, but since we’ve played so bad against the 2-14 Titans, not sure what to expect next week against a good Colts team. ???
Have a great week Rams fans!
