    from TOP 10 DEFENSIVE LINES ENTERING WEEK 6

    https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/10/14/top-10-defensive-lines-entering-week-6/

    2. St. Louis Rams

    Combined run defense grade: +30

    Combined pass rush grade: + 28

    The Rams defensive line doesn’t have a player with a negative run defense grade. Unlike for the Broncos, the star is found in the middle of the line, in the form of Aaron Donald. His grade exceeds all other interior defenders (3-4 DEs, DTs and NTs). After a truly historic 2013, Robert Quinn has reverted to just very good (10th in pass rush productivity). Chris Long appears a little passed his best form, at least as a pass rusher, but backup William Hayes has starting ability. Finally, Michael Brockers is a good run stuffer, who matches Donald’s +9.1 run defense grade exactly. When Nick Fairley can only get on the field for about a third of snaps, you know you have a good unit.
