In Week 9, fantasy football coaches leaning on two of the strongest defenses in fantasy football (Pittsburgh Steelers, San Francisco 49ers) were forced to look at other streaming options thanks to a bye. Hopefully, if you were one of those needy rosters, you’d turn to the Los Angeles Rams, who put together a 22-point day after a seven-sack, 3-INT intimidation against the Seattle Seahawks.
Although this unit started the year off slowly, it has gone from strength to strength since its goodbye. Over the past three weeks, the Rams have been a top-10 defense in terms of yards per play (4.7) and scoring percentage (29.7%), while tied for second-most sacks in the league (11). .
The rookies dominated the Rams’ headlines in Week 9, in particular. Jared Verse and Braden Fisk (the Rams’ first- and second-round picks, respectively) combined for three sacks and four tackles for a loss that day, while their third-round pick, safety Kamren Kinchens, had two impressive interceptions. .
