Andy McCollum is out for the season due to a undisclosed injury at this time.

Coach Scott Linehan is transforming the Rams into a more complete football team.  The Rams used to win by throwing the ball all over the place and out-scoring the opponent.  The Rams unleashed quite a different look on Sunday on the un-suspecting Broncos.  Marc Bulger completed 18 of 34 passes (52.9%) for 217 yards.  RB Steven Jackson was a beast, carrying the ball 22 times for 121 yards (5.5 ypc) and catching 4 passes for 19 yards (4.8 avg).  WR Torry Holt caught 7 passes for 80 yards (11.4 avg).  Isaac Bruce caught 5 passes for 64 yards (12.8 avg).  Kicker Jeff Wilkins hit 6 field goals in the game that were 24-51 yards in length.

LB Will Witherspoon had 8 tackles.  DE Leonard Little had 2 sacks.  DB Fakhir Brown intercepted a pass and had a sack, Tye Hill and Corey Chavous also picked-off a pass each.  The Rams had trouble stopping the Broncos running game as the Broncos ran the ball 25 times for 161 yards (6.4 ypc).  The Rams played good against the pass as the Broncos only completed 50% of their passes for 98 net yards in the air, and the Rams picked-off 3 Jake Plummer passes.

The Broncos will try to run the ball against the Rams until they prove they can stop it.  Mike Bell and Tatum Bell will porbably split carries trying to soften up the defense, and then the Broncos will try to go over the top to Javon Walker and Rod Smith.

The Rams will attempt to be more balanced this season on offense.  Instead of running a spread offense, the Rams will run with double tight-end sets frequently to protect QB Marc Bulger better.  The Broncos pass rush is weak (with all the Cleveland Browns rejects on the line) and Bulger should be able to get the ball to Holt, Bruce and Curtis.

This should be a great game that could go either way.  In games where the match-ups are so even I usually side with the home team.

Coach Linehan has never been a NFL head coach, but he’s been an offensive co-ordinator for the Minnesota Vikings from 2002-2004 and was the offensive co-ordinator of the Miami Dolphins last season.  Linehan understands the importance of the keeping his QB healthy, which is something Coach Martz was not good at.
