Couple that with the Saints starting slow last week and ramping up hotter and hotter through the game means the month long lag of downtime is at an end.

And I don't think the Rams dline is better than Philly. Sure Donald is amazing but after that I don't think they're great.

I agree. And to go a step further, their front seven isn't as good as the Saints. Believe it or not, it hasn't been Rankins that has been the key to the Saints' ability to stop the run, it is the speed of the LB corps coupled with the entire front four. Davis, Anzalone and Klein have been eating up the run.

Yes, Rankins has emerged as the best interior defensive lineman, but Onemata, Davison and Stallworth are very close behind. They are going to be fired up and I don't think we'll see any drop off whatsoever the the intensity versus the run.

Yep. Stall worth has shown some real upside as well. I have a feeling about that kid. Ony is improving a lot
