20man: I know Matthew Stafford and the Rams had some success in the passing game. They threw for 317 yards last week against the Lions, but if you watch the film a little closer, you may have a different perspective of the way Detroit’s new-look secondary played overall.
They didn’t let anything over their head, which is job No. 1. The 63-yard completion by Tyler Johnson was a short catch-and-run in which Carlton Davis III slipped on the play. Davis also slipped on Stafford’s one touchdown, a 9-yard pass to Cooper Kupp.
Detroit dropped two interceptions in the contest. If they make those plays and Stafford finishes with like 250 passing yards three interceptions, you probably feel much better about the performance overall.
It’s a unit that didn’t get much time together in camp because of injuries. I’d expect them to continue to play more consistent and take advantage of opportunities to make plays the more time on task they have together.
