    That being the case, Bradford did make

    an impact in his favorite statistic. His

    seven wins are the most by a rookie

    quarterback drafted number one overall

    since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970.

    A YEAR TO REMEMBER

  • 8/4/2019 Pre3 at KC

    8/17

    Turnovers can often tell the story in

    the NFL, and they certainly painted a

    big portion of the picture for the 2010

    Rams.

    St. Louis was 6-1 last season when

    they won the turnover battle. St. Louis

    committed just 21 turnovers this sea-

    son, tied for 8th fewest in the NFL.

    The Rams committed 33 in 2009.

    The Rams were aided by superb ball

    protection from their player who han-

    dles it most often. When RB Steven

    Jackson lost a fumble in Week 14 in

    New Orleans, it was his first lost fum-

    ble in 562 touches. Hes lost just 14 fumbles in 2,205 career touches.

    As a team, St. Louis lost just six fumbles in 2010, tied for the second

    fewest in the NFL on the year.

    TURN OVER STORY

    QB Sam Bradford and C Jason Brown

    Last season, the Rams offense made great strides in the m

    important statistical category, which led to the team winning six m

    games than it did in 2009.

    Although St. Louis had no significant changes at the wide recei

    tight end and running back positions, the Rams scored 114 m

    points in 2010 than they did in 2009, an increase of 7.2 points

    game.

    The jump was a significant one for St. Louis. Among NFL teams,

    Oakland experienced a greater increase in points scored in 2010

    OFFENSE ON THE RISE

    One year removed from allowing 44

    sacks, the Rams kept their quarter-back upright at a much better rate in

    2010.

    Sam Bradford was dropped by oppo-

    nents just 34 times last season. The

    10-sack decrease was the sixth-best

    improvement in the NFL over 2009

    team totals.

    Making the single-year improvement

    more impressive is the fact that the

    team accomplished the feat with

    both a rookie quarterback and rookie

    left tackle in Rodger Saffold. Theteams starting right tackle, second-

    year pro Jason Smith, entered the season with just five career

    starts under his belt.

    No team in the NFL had fewer combined starts at the right tackle,

    left tackle and quarterback position than the Rams did going into

    2010, yet St. Louis still enjoyed an increase of 7.2 points per game

    offensively.

    The Rams finished the season ranked 12th in the NFL in sacks per

    pass play at 5.76 percent, a dramatic improvement over their 8.1

    rate in 2009, which ranked 25th in the NFL.

    A leading cause for the offensive lines success was its consistent

    health and continuity. St. Louis five opening day starters on the

    offensive line combined to miss just one start in 2010.

    The Rams ability to get off

    the field on third down defen-

    sively was a crucial part of

    their success in 2010.

    first meeting with San Francisco last season, St. Louis held the

    49ers to 0-of-11 on third down. The Rams performances against San

    Francisco was one of many strong ones by the Rams when it came

    to third down defense.

    Their Week 13 win in Arizona, one that saw the Cardinals convert

    just 1-of-11 (9 pct.) on third down, marked the fourth time in 2010

    that they held their opponent to 12 percent or less on third down. In

    LB James Laurinaitis led all NFL rookie linebackers in tackles in 2009,and he followed up his stellar rookie campaign with a strong perfor-

    mance in his sophomore NFL season. Laurinaitis led St. Louis with129 stops last season and became the first Ram since Pisa Tinoisoma

    to record 100 tackles in each of his first two seasons.

    Laurinaitis rarely came off the field as he played in a team-high 1,093

    snaps in 2010, and his ability to help in the passing game was a hugeasset for the Rams. The former Ohio State Buckeye had seven passes

    defensed, one interception and three sacks on the year. Among Rams,only starting cornerbacks Ron Bartell (13) and Bradley Fletcher (12)

    had more pass breakups.

    On Denvers final drive in Week 12, the Broncos targeted TE Daniel

    Graham deep down the field, but Laurinaitis got a hand in and knockedthe ball loose to help preserve the victory. In Week 8, he ended

    Carolinas opening possession with an interception.

    MAN IN THE MIDDLE

    Linebacker James Laurinaitis enjoyed another productive season as he led the Rams in tackles andmade numerous plays in the passing game while rarely leaving the field.

    DE James Halls 11th NFL season was one of his best for the vet-

    eran leader of St. Louis defense. He led the team with 10.5 sacks

    on the year and has also recorded 57 tackles, including two for loss.

    Hall also led the Rams and tied for second in the NFL with six forced

    fumbles in 2010.

    In the Rams Week 16 win over San Francisco, Hall recorded 2.0

    sacks in a game for the third time last season. His other two came in

    Week 4 against Seattle and Week 6 versus San Diego.

    Hall now has 57.0 career sacks. His 10.5 sacks was his second-highest single season total of his career (11.5 in 2004). He finished

    the season ranked ninth in the NFC in sacks.

    Rams were among the leagues best last

    season when it came to short yardage

    situations.

    On offense, St. Louis converted an 80.8

    percent of its 3rd-and-1 and 4th-and-1

    opportunities, the second highest mark

    in the NFL. The league average was65.8 percent.

    Defensively, the Rams allowed oppo-

    nents to convert just 53.8 percent of

    such situations, third best in the NFL and

    well above the league average of 65.8 percent.

    SHORT YARDAGE SUCCESS

    Defensively, the Rams were among

    the most improved teams in the NFL in

    2010.

    St. Louis finished in the top 10 inthe league in sacks (7th), third down

    defense (2nd) and total touchdowns

    allowed (4t). In addition, the Rams

    experienced significant increases

    over 2009 in several key areas. St.

    Louis ranked 12th in points per game

    allowed (20.5) after finishing 31st a

    year earlier (27.3). In all, the Rams

    allowed 108 fewer points in 2010 than

    they did in 2009.

    The Rams improved 10 spots in total defense as they ranked 19t

    2010 after finishing 29th in 09, and they ranked 17th against the

    (113.1 yards per game), compared to 27th in 2009 (137.6).

    MARKED IMPROVEMENT

    The Rams defense showed vastimprovement in several areas last sea-son, and one of the biggest statistical

    jumps St. Louis made came in opponentpasser rating.

    against St. Louis was 80.4.

    The former Texas Tech Red Raider led the NFL in all-purpose yaage in 2010 with 2,364 yards. Amendola was the only player in t

    league to lead his team in punt return, kick return, and receiviyardage.

    Amendolas 85 catches this season ranked 13th in Rams histofor a single season. Hes caught at least one pass in every gamsince joining the Rams in Week 2 of the 2009 season, a streak30 consecutive games with a reception.

    DE Chris Long enjoyed a breakoutseason in 2010, his third NFL cam-paign.

    Long posted a career-high 8.5 sackson the season and recorded at least1.0 sack in seven of his last 11games. Additionally, he led the Ramswith 16 quarterback hits and 21 pres-sures.

    In Week 16, he dropped Alex Smithand forced a fumble that FredRobbins recovered to end a fourthquarter drive. In Week 12 in Denver,

    his relentless effort on the games finaldrive helped the Rams hold on to a victory. With St. Louis clinging toa three-point lead in the final minute of Sundays game, Long sackedKyle Orton on second down and pressured him into an errant throwon fourth down.

    In Week 6 against San Diego, Long turned in his first two-sack per-formance of the season and his second of his career. For his efforts,Long was named NFC Defensive Player of the Week.

    LONG ON TALENT

    DE Chris Long

    DANDY DANNY

    WR/PR Danny Amendola gave the Rams a boost on offense and in the kicking game in 2010. 85-catch performance this season was one of the best in team history.

    One of the biggest moves the Rams made last offseason was theacquisition of veteran DT Fred Robbins, and the addition of the 11thyear pro quickly paid dividends.

    Robbins set a new career high with 6.0 sacks on the season andhad a big impact on the Rams defense. He held off blockers to allowJames Laurinaitis to run free, and his pass rush acumen drew theattention of opposing offenses and helped his defensive line mates.

    In Week 6, Robbins had a sack and three quarterback hits in theRams win over San Diego, and following the win, teammate ChrisLong said the inside push Robbins provided helped Long enjoy atwo-sack day that led to Long being named NFC Defensive Player

    of the Week.

    On the season, Robbins had 24 total tackles, including four for loss,eight quarterback hits and seven passes defensed. Hes a big reasonwhy the Rams saw a big improvement against the run and on thirddown.

    Robbins came to the Rams after six seasons with the New YorkGiants. During two of those seasons, Steve Spagnuolo was theGiants defensive coordinator. Its no coincidence that those twocampaigns were perhaps the best of Robbins career as he tied hisprevious career high in sacks (5.5) in each of those seasons and wasa Pro Bowl alternate in 2008. He played a key role in New Yorks runto their Super Bowl XLII championship.

    A BI G ADDITION

    Rams DT Fred Robbins drops Seattle RB Justin Forsett for a loss. After joining St. Louis as a freeagent last spring, Robbins made a big impact on a much-improved Rams defense in 2010.

    WR Brandon Gibson set new career

    highs last season with 53 receptions

    for 620 yards. Both totals ranked sec-

    ond among Rams. He looks to build on

    those totals as he enters his third NFL

    campaign and second full season with

    the Rams.

    In last weeks preseason win over the

    Titans, Gibson caught an 83-yard touch-

    down pass from QB Sam Bradford on

    the first play from scrimmage. The score

    gave the Rams a 7-0 lead just seconds

    into the contest.

    Gibsons catch is the second-longest play from scrimmage by

    player this preseason.

    Midway through the season, Rams RBSteven Jackson and K Josh Brown showedup to practice wearing blue t-shirts thatread, Vote Don Jones for Pro Bowl 2010.The shirts were special ordered by team-mate Hank Fraley as Rams players voicedtheir opinion on which punter should repre-sent the NFC in Hawaii.

    Jones was eventually named an alternate

    to the All-Star game after another strongseason. He finished eighth in the NFL andfourth in the NFC with a gross puntingaverage of 45.5 yards per kick. He alsoranked third in the NFL and second in the NFC in net punting avage (40.0).

    Jones specialty is pinning opponents deep in their own territory.tied for fifth in the NFL with 32 punts inside the opponents 20-yline last season.

    In Week 10 in San Francisco, Jones turned in perhaps his mimpressive single game performance of his career. He puntedtimes for a 43.7 average and didnt allow a single punt to be returnmaking him the only punter in the NFL last season to produce a ga

    with 0 return yards on nine or more punts.

    The Rams signed Jones as a restricted free agent prior to the 2season, and during his time in St. Louis, Jones ranks second amNFL punters in gross and net average.

    K Josh Brown is among the NFLs best

    when it comes to kicking from long dis-

    tance.

    In the Rams preseason opener vs.

    Indianapolis, Brown hit a 60-yard kick on

    the last play of the first half, which would

    have set new personal and team records

    had it come in the regular season. Browns

    career long is 58 yards, while Jeff Wilkins

    holds the Rams record of 57.

    Brown is a perfect 5-for-5 on field goal

    attempts this season, including a 42-yard game-winning kick on the

    final play of regulation last week against Tennessee.

    Brown hit six field goals of 50-plus yards in 2008 and 2009, tying the

    team record for most field goals from 50-plus in a season. His 2008

    and 09 seasons are tied with Tony Zendejas for most 50-yard field

    goals in a season in team history.

    Brown now ranks sixth in NFL history in successful field goal tries

    from 50 yards or more. Of the five players who rank ahead of Brown

    - Jason Hanson (45), Morten Andersen (40), John Kasay (40), JasonElam (39) and Sebastian Janikowski (29) - all but Janikowski played

    at least nine more seasons than Brown. Janikowski entered the

    NFL three seasons before Brown.

    Since entering the NFL in 2003, Brown has made 28 field goals from

    50-plus yards, most among active kickers during that time. His 68.3

    percentage on field goals of 50 yards or more is second best since

    03.

    Brown set a new career high with 33 field goals made in 2010,

    passing his previous best of 31 in 2008. Brown scored 125 points

    as well, third best in the NFC and sixth in the NFL among kickers.

    WR Danny Amendola led the Rams in

    receiving in 2010, and his versatility also

    served St. Louis well in the return game.

    Amendola averaged 11.3 yards per punt

    return last season, sixth best in the NFC

    and 12th best in the NFL.

    He gave the Rams a big-play boost

    and helped the club gain advantageous

    field position. Amendola had seven punt

    returns of 20 yards or more last season,

    second only to Chicagos Devin Hester,

    who finished the year with nine.

    In just two seasons, Amendola ranks fourth in Rams history in ki

    off return yards (2,760), ninth in punt return yards (812) and third

    combined return yards (3,572).

    In 2009, CB Bradley Fletchers rookie

    season was off to a bang before a torn

    ACL and LCL ended it seven games in.

    After an exhaustive offseason of rehab,

    Fletcher bounced back and earned the

    starting right cornerback job in 2010.

    Fletcher led the Rams with four intercep-

    tions, finished third on the club in tackles

    (91) and second in passes defensed (12).

    Fletchers road back wasnt an easy one.

    He underwent an operation to reconstruct

    his LCL. After rehabbing from his first surgery, he again went under

    the knife, this time to repair and reconstruct his ACL. Still, Fletcher

    made it back to the field for the start of 2010 training camp and was a

    huge asset to the Rams. For his efforts, Fletchers teammates named

    him the clubs Ed Block Courage Award winner.

    Last April, the Rams were thrilled to find

    Indiana T Rodger Saffold available at the

    top of the second round. St. Louis chose

    Saffold with the 33rd overall pick and

    quickly inserted him in the starting lineup.

    Saffold started all 16 games in 2010,

    making the former Hoosier the only

    rookie left tackle to start every game

    for his team last season. According to

    Statspass.com, Saffold allowed only 3.5sacks all season while playing for a

    team that tied for the fifth most passing

    attempts.

    Saffold was the fifth offensive tackle and seventh offensive lineman

    taken in the 2010 draft.

    FRONT AND CENTER

    C Jason Brown has anchored the

    Rams offensive line since his arrival

    n the spring of 2009, and hes been a

    model of consistency throughout his sixNFL seasons.

    Brown started all 16 games last sea-

    son and has started 76 consecutive

    contests, which is the sixth-longest

    ongest active streak among NFL cen-

    ters. Brown hasnt missed a start since

    entering the Ravens starting lineup in

    2006, his second NFL season.

    During his career, Brown has blocked

    for three different 1,000-yard rush-

    ers: Steven Jackson (1,416 in 2009

    and 1,241 in 2010), Jamal Lewis (1,132 in 2006) and Willis

    McGahee (1,207 in 2007). Brown was a Pro Bowl alternate in 2009.

    The Edward Jones Dome was kind to the Rams last season as team enjoyed a dome field advantage that helped St. Louis fiwith a 5-3 record at home in 2010.

    Opponents averaged just 17.6 points per game at the Edward JoDome, giving the Rams defense the eighth best total in the NFhome last season. St. Louis held its opponents to 17 points or in six of its eight home games last season, including each of the five.

    Of the Rams 43 sacks last season, 24 came with the help of t

    home crowd, tied for the fourth best total in the NFL.

    DOME FIELD ADVANTAGE

    Head Coach Steve Spagnuolo celebrates a home victory with his team.

    When Steve Spagnuolo went in search of a new offensive coord

    tor this spring, his mind immediately went to a man whom Spagn

    found among the most difficult in the NFL to game plan aga

    That led to the hiring of Josh McDaniels, who matched wits aga

    Spagnuolo in Super Bowl XLII when Spagnuolo and the Gia

    defeated McDaniels Patriots.

    Wherever McDaniels has been, his offense has produced. Du

    McDaniels first season in Denver, QB Kyle Orton set career highspass attempts, completions, passing yards, touchdown passes

    passer rating while tying his career low for interceptions.

    In 2010, the Broncos ranked seventh in the NFL in passing yaper game and finished 13th in total yards per game. WR Bran

    Lloyd led the NFL in receiving yards with 1,448 and finished sec

    in the AFC with 11 touchdown catches en route to his first Pro Binvitation.

    Under McDaniels tutelage, 2007 NFL MVP Tom Brady broke

    NFL record for touchdown passes in a season (50) and led

    league in both passing yards (4,806) and passer rating (117Brady also set franchise marks in nearly every major passing

    egory, while WR Wes Welker set the franchise record for receptiin a season (112) and WR Randy Moss broke the NFL record

    touchdown receptions with 23.

    The Rams roster features 19 undrafted

    rookie free agents who are vying for spots

    on the roster, which will be reduced from

    90 to 80 this week and again to 53 prior to

    the start of the regular season.

    Last year, DT Jermelle Cudjo, WR

    Dominique Curry, QB Thaddeus Lewis,

    S Darian Stewart and RB Keith Toston

    made the opening day roster after join-

    ng the team as undrafted rookie free

    agents. Other current Rams such as S

    James Butler, OL Adam Goldberg, DT

    Gary Gibson and S Craig Dahl are among

    dozens of current NFL players who have experienced success after

    going undrafted.

    n recent years, players such as Cowboys WR Miles Austin, Chargers

    TE Antonio Gates, Browns QB Jake Delhomme, Steelers LB James

    Harrison and Rams QB Kurt Warner entered the NFL as undrafted

    free agents and made the Pro Bowl.
