    Los Angeles: A little love for the center. Tim Barnes was brilliant during the early portions of Saturday’s game, when most of the big names were still out there. He didn’t have an easy assignment either, often left in one-on-one matchups with Dontari Poe. When the Rams ran the ball, Barnes made a habit of getting to the second level. He cleared out LB Justin March on one such play; on another, he drove Derrick Johnson back about 10 yards. Todd Gurley’s TD? Right behind Barnes into the end zone.

    I tend to think the cohesion/improvement on the OL is more responsible for the 7-7 red zone TD statistic than anything else.
