The Rams defense will be strong again \u2013 it will be up to the offense to get anything going \u2013 anything!<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63753&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>Are the Rams on the cusp of a winning season or are they simply a .500 team\u2026 again? Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n<h3>2015 St. Louis Rams Preview<\/h3>\n<p>Let\u2019s start with the offense. The addition of Nick Foles is an upgrade at QB for the Rams for sure especially considering that Sam Bradford is one tackle away from another season ending injury. Foles missed eight games last year as well, however \u2013 a broken collarbone sidelined him after a decent start last year. Foles is still a bit of a mystery \u2013 it could go really good or really bad for him in this new offense.<\/p>\n<p>One big problem for the new gunslinger is serious lack of weapons at his disposal. Foles will be throwing to Brian Quick, Kenny Britt, Stedman Bailey and Jared Cook to throw to \u2013 nothing special!<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=66501&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>The good news for Foles is that the Rams are a more balanced offense under Coach Jeff Fisher. St. Louis will run the ball a lot &#8211; Georgia running back Todd Gurley, considered the most impressive collegiate rusher since Adrian Peterson, could be a difference maker &#8211; assuming he&#8217;s fully recovered from last year&#8217;s ACL injury. Tre Mason is there just in case \u2013 he was decent last year.<\/p>\n<p>If a sketchy offensive line can open a few holes the Rams will top out at just an OK offense \u2013 nothing special at all despite some seemingly undeserved hype.<\/p>\n<p>It will be St. Louis\u2019s defense that will be called upon more often than not to win games. They have good linebackers and an up-and-coming secondary and have proven over the years to be one of the most formidable units in the game.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63752&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p>2014 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Aaron Donald anchors a defense that returns names like Robert Quinn and Chris Long. The Rams can pressure the quarterback for sure!<\/p>\n<p>So where does that leave us with the Rams this season?<\/p>\n<h3>Rams 2015 Prediction:<\/h3>\n<p>8-8 \u2013 Over the 7.5 wins that Vegas has set!<\/p>\n<p>The St. Louis Rams are who they are \u2013 an average team with a good defense and an offense with far too many holes. Nick Foles was a nice addition to this team but he is nothing that is going to take this team over the top. St. Louis seems content in their mediocrity right now \u2013 maybe a move to LA will cure all of that? But that\u2019s another topic altogether!<\/p>\n<p><b>The 2015 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/nfl\/\">NFL futures betting<\/a> season is right around the corner!
