Rams’ defense focused on wrapping up the Saints after getting burned by the Eagles

LA Times  

The Rams struggled to wrap up Eagles running back Saquon Barkley, left, last week. The Rams knew what was coming — and could not stop it — when Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley embarrassed them last week with a career-best performance. “They do a great job of utilizing his versatile skill set that truly makes him an X-factor,” Rams coach Sean McVay said, adding “He’s been one of those guys that if he gets into a rhythm and a groove, he can be a real nightmare to defend.” The Saints signed the 6-foot-2, 221-pound Hill in 2017, after the undrafted free-agent tight end from Brigham Young was released by the Green Bay Packers. “You’ve got to kind of keep your eyes on everywhere he’s at,” Rams edge rusher Jared Verse said. “As soon as he breaks through the line and he’s got space, he’s one of the scariest guys in the NFL,” Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula said, “just like we saw last week.” Quarterback Derek Carr, sidelined for three games in October because of an oblique injury, has played well in consecutive victories over the Atlanta Falcons and Browns.
