The Rams come out in 21 personnel (2 running backs, 1 tight end) with tight end Lance Kendricks to the left and Brandon Gibson split wide right and Danny Amendola inside of him in the slot. The backfield is in an offset-I with fullback Brit Miller flexed to the field.
The Redskins are in their base 3-4 defense, but with outside linebacker Ryan Kerrigan (91) bumped out over slot receiver Danny Amendola. The Rams are running an outside zone play to the field side. One of the weaknesses in a 3-4 defense is that there is no edge defender. In a 4-3, defensive ends set the edge up front, but in a 3-4 defense, the edge defender has to be manufactured.

Rotating cast keeping quarterback upright
ST. LOUIS (AP) It's only Week 3 and Harvey Dahl is the last man standing on the offensive line the St. Louis Rams envisioned at the start of training camp.
All they can do this week at Chicago is keep patching things together in hopes of keeping Sam Bradford upright. Short-handed or not in last week's 31-28 victory against Washington, it worked just fine.

St. Louis Rams (1-1) at Chicago Bears (1-1)
In 2010, I consistently ranked the Bears lower than most and lower than their record would have suggested because I simply didn’t trust the combination of Jay Cutler, that offensive line, and Mike Martz to consistently win 3 or 4 games in a row against playoff caliber teams, so I didn’t like their Super Bowl chances. This year, I thought...
