Rams defense ranks seventh overall after three weeks

The Los Angeles Rams defense currently ranks seventh overall in EPA per play after three weeks of the NFL season. Despite a struggling run defense, the Rams excel against the pass, sitting third in EPA per play and allowing low completion and yards per attempt rates. Their defensive metrics have improved significantly since last season, even without key player Myles Garrett fully healthy. The Rams' defense will face further challenges as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Philadelphia Eagles, likely missing Jaylen Watson.
