7/30/2019 Week 15 - Rams vs. Vikings
1/175
The St. Louis Rams aim for a fourth consecutive
Sunday as they host the Minnesota Vikings in t
final home game of the season. Kickoff is schedu
for noon.
St. Louis is coming off a 15-12 victory in Buf
last week in which WR Brandon Gibson cap
off a 100-yard day with a 13-yard touchdown ca
to put the Rams up with 48 seconds remaining
the game. The Rams were aided by a defens
performance that held one of the NFLs top rush
attacks to just 61 yards on 20 attempts.
RB Steven Jackson, who also found the end z
last week, is on the cusp of a significant milestone Sunday. He needs just
rushing yards to reach 10,000 for his career. He would be the 27th playe
NFL history to reach the mark but just the 15th to rush for 10,000 yards for
team. Jackson needs 164 yards in the final three games to reach 1,000 foreighth consecutive season.

FISHER ERA BEGINS IN ST. LOUIS
A PLA YERS COACH
HES A WINNER
In January, Jeff Fisher became the
26th full-time head coach in Rams his-
tory. Fisher returned to the NFL after a
one-year hiatus. He previously spent
16 seasons as the head coach of the
Houston Oilers/Tennessee Titans.
Fisher is among the winningest head
coaches of his era. Among active
coaches, Fisher is fourth in career
wins.
Earlier this season, Fisher passed Hall
of Famer Marv Levy for 18th on the
NFLs all-time wins list for the regular season. In Week 2, Fishers
first victory as Rams head coach allowed him to tie Levy on the all-
time list at 143.

Head Coach Jeff Fisher
Throughout his career, Fisher
has been lauded for his ability
to relate to players and get the
most out of them. That keen
skill set is due in large part to
Fishers personal experience.He enjoyed a five-year playing
career with the Chicago Bears
as a defensive back and punt
returner.
Fisher is one of nine current
NFL head coaches who also
played in the league. Of those
nine, three were teammates
at one time with the Bears:
Fisher, Ron Rivera and Leslie
Frazier.

HES A WINNER
Hallmarks of a Fisher-led teaminclude a stout rushing defense,the ability to possess the ball with astrong running game and poise inthe midst of adversity. In 11 of his 16seasons in Tennessee, the Titansdefense ranked in the top 10 againstthe run and ranked fourth in rushingdefense over that period (Baltimore,
Pittsburgh, San Diego). In 2003,the Titans finished first in the NFL inrushing defense for only the secondtime in franchise history (1993).
On the offensive side of the ball,Fishers teams finished in the top10 in rushing yards per game eighttimes during his Oilers/Titans tenureand from 1995-2010, only five NFLteams averaged more rushing yardsper game than Fishers clubs. Additionally, in 12 of Fishers 16 sesons, the Titans finished with an average time of possession of mthan 31 minutes per game for the season.
Fisher believes in the philosophy that a strong running game helpcontrol the clock and keeps your defense fresh. In 12 of his last 1seasons in Tennessee, the Titans finished in the top half of the Nin rushing offense, including seven top 10 finishes. Additionally, in12 of the last 15 seasons, the Titans finished with an average timof possession number of more than 31 minutes for the season.
The Rams are on the verge of carrying on those trends in Fisherfirst year. Theyre currently 16th in the NFL in rushing offense. ThRams are also 13th against the run, which is marked improvemeover the teams 31st place finish in 2011.
Head Coach Jeff Fisher
HES A WINNER
If I had a franchise, what coach would I hire? His name is Jeff F
er. He is so good. Hes still young enough that he can relate with players on the team. Hes one of the brightest, if not the brightest
coaches in the league. As a former player, he knows how to worka locker room. Hes just sensational. His schemes on defense are
very good and imaginative. Hes got everything. -ESPN.com SenWriter John Clayton
Jeff is one of the most competitive and intelligent players that Iv
ever coached. He was not overly gifted as a player, but he made
for it by being the fiercest competitor and one of the most intellig
people that Ive known playing this game and thats been the h
mark of his coaching career. He understands the entire game an
is a leader more than anything else. He will be in command of th
entire team. The Rams will reflect Jeff Fisher and the kind of per
son he is. It will be a great era for the Rams. - Former Rams HeCoach John Robinson
Jeff has a history of developing fundamentally sound but physi-
cally intimidating football teams. St. Louis is fortunate to have a
leader for its franchise with such impeccable credentials. - Falc
President Rich McKay, with whom Fisher co-chaired the NFLs
Competition Committee
In 14 years of NFL football, Jeff Fisher is one of two coaches th
I have the most respect for. The St. Louis Rams are lucky to hav
Fisher as their head coach. - Former Rams and Titans DE Kevi

RAMS ALL-TIME LEADING RUSHERS
Eric Dickerson7,245 yards
Marshall Faulk6,959 yards
Steven Jackso9,929 yards
Lawrence McCutcheon6,186 yards
Dick Bass5,417 yards
RB Steven Jackson approaches yet
another significant milestone this
week. Jackson, who is the Rams
all-time leading rusher, needs just 71
rushing yards to reach 10,000 for his
career.
When he reaches the milestone,
Jackson will be the 27th player in NFLhistory to do so. However, Jackson
will be just the 15th player to rush for
10,000 yards for one team. Of the 14
players who have done so with one
team, 10 are in the Hall of Fame.
On the season, Jackson has rushed
for 836 yards and three touchdowns, including a key second-half
score in last weeks win at Buffalo.
Jackson became the Rams all-time leading rusher during the 2010
season, and hes continued to add to the top total in team history.

In addition to holding the franchise mark for rushing yards, Jackson is
on the cusp of breaking Faulks team record for career rushing touch-
downs. Jackson currently ranks third in Rams history in the category,
but hes within striking distance of both Dickerson and Faulk. With his
touchdown last week against the Bills, Jackson is now just one short
of Dickerson and three short of Faulk.

consecutive 1,000-yard seasons (seven) as well as most overall
1,000-yard seasons.
With seven straight 1,000-yard seasons, Jackson is in elite
company. Only six other running backs in NFL history have rushfor 1,000 yards in seven or more consecutive seasons. The grou
includes Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Curtis Martin, Thurman
Thomas, Eric Dickerson and LaDainian Tomlinson.
Of that group, Smith, Sanders, Thomas, Martin and Dickerson a
members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Tomlinson retired this
spring and isnt yet eligible for induction.

Statistically speaking, QB Sam Bradford is enjoying the best sea-
son of his young career. Bradford has thrown for 2,877 yards and
15 touchdowns this season. Hes on pace to set a new career high
for passing yards and touchdowns, and his current number for
passer rating (81.9) is also superior to his previous single-season
bests for his career.
Three of Bradfords six best games in terms of passer rating have
come this season. His 106.2 passer rating at Arizona in Week 12 is
the fifth highest single-game mark of his career. In the Rams win
over Washington in Week 2, he posted a career-high 117.6 passerrating. His 105.1 performance in Week 1 was, at the time, his
fourth-highest rating of his career and is now his sixth.

QB Sam Bradford is on pace to set new career highs in several categories this season.
QB Sam Bradford has had a hot hand
late in games this season. Last week,
he threw a 13-yard touchdown pass to
Brandon Gibson with 48 seconds left.
Sunday marked the fifth time this
season that Bradford has driven the
Rams to a fourth quarter lead. Of
those five games, St. Louis has won

TE Lance Kendricks has given the Rams aboost this season.
Last week, Kendricks caught three passesfor 36 yards, and most significantly, hemade a diving 22-yard catch on the game-winning drive that helped set up BrandonGibsons touchdown grab.
In Week 13, Kendricks hauled in a 37-yardtouchdown pass from Sam Bradford, areception that saw Kendricks fight off adefender to reach the end zone.
Kendricks now has 32 receptions on the season. Against the 49he surpassed his rookie total of 28 catches.
In Week 6, Kendricks tied a career high with four receptions. InLouis Week 5 victory over the Cardinals, he punctuated St. Loopening drive with a seven-yard scoring grab, his first touchdowhis NFL career. Kendricks catch capped a 69-yard drive that gthe Rams a lead right out of the gate in a game in which St. Lnever trailed.
In his second year out of Wisconsin, Kendricks has played an imtant role in the Rams offense.
When asked recently about Kendricks performance this seasCoach Jeff Fisher pointed out that Kendricks never leaves the fand that the former Wisconsin Badger doesnt receive enough recnition for the job he does in the run game. The Rams are averag112 yards per game on the ground this season.

Rams K Greg Zuerlein has enjoyed an
impressive rookie season that has seen
him set new marks for rookie NFL kick-
ers.
In the Rams last home game, a Week
13 win over San Francisco, Zuerlein
kicked a 53-yard field goal to tie the
game as time expired in regulation. Then
he one-upped himself with a 54-yard
game-winner in overtime. Zuerlein isnow 21-for-26 on field goals this season.
He was named NFC Special Teams
Player of the Week for the performance.
Zuerlein has now made seven field goals
from 50 yards or more. In the win over San Francisco, he broke the
franchise record for 50+ yard field goals in a season, and hes just
one off of the NFL single-season record. That mark is shared by
Morten Andersen and Jason Hanson.
Zuerlein made his first 15 field goal attempts of his career. Among
Zuerleins accomplishments this season:
- With seven field goals of 50 yards or more, Zuerlein owns the NFLrookie record in the category. He broke the rookie record in just five
games.
- Kicked the longest field goal by a rookie in league history (60
yds.).
- Broke the franchise record for longest field goal (60 yds.) and
owns three of the four longest field goals in Rams history.
- In Week 4 became the first kicker in league history to kick a
50-plus and 60 plus yard field goal in the same game.
- He set a new franchise record for most consecutive field goals by
a rookie (15).
GREG THE LEG
Just like his special teams mate Greg
Zuerlein, P Johnny Hekker has had a
strong rookie season.
On the season, Hekker is averaging 45.7
yards per punt and has a net average of
39.3 yards per attempt. If Hekker finishes
the season with those marks, both would
be fourth-best in team history for a single
season.
Earlier this season against Arizona,
Hekker averaged 56.9 yards per punt to
set a Rams single-game record. He also
turned in an impressive net average of 46.0 on seven punts, includ-
ing a 68-yarder. He was named NFC Special Teams Player of the
Week for the performance.
In addition to putting his leg to good use, the Rams have benefited
from Hekkers arm. Hes completed three passes on fakes this sea-
son, and in Week 4, Hekker tossed a two-yard touchdown pass to
Danny Amendola on a fake punt.

In the NFL, speed kills. Rams WR
Chris Givens is proving what a valu-
able weapon his legs can be.
With five receptions of 50 yards or
more, Givens leads the NFL in the
category this season.
He posted a career-high 11 receptions
in the teams Week 13 win over San
Francisco. His 92-yard effort camea week after he recorded his first
100-yard game of his career, a per-
formance that included an acrobatic
37-yard touchdown catch. Givens
totaled five catches for 115 yards in
the win over the Cardinals.
Earlier this season, Givens became the only rookie in NFL histor
catch a pass of 50 yards or more in five straight games. That stre
started in Week 4 against Seattle. Hes one of just two players in
Super Bowl era to record a 50-yard catch in five straight games, j
ing Detroits Pat Studstill, who did so in 1966.
Givens, who was the 14th receiver selected in Aprils draft, rafourth among NFL rookies with 584 receiving yards this season, t
ing only Josh Gordon, Justin Blackmon and T.Y. Hilton.

If you want to find Rams MLB James Laurinaitis on the football fi
one can often simply follow the ball because the now fourth-year
seems to always be around it.
Laurinaitis leads the Rams with 146 tackles this season and has
reached the 100 tackle mark in each of his four NFL seasons.
Laurinaitis has proven to be a valuable defender against both the
and the pass. He has six passes defensed this season. In the tea
win at Arizona, he recorded his first interception of the year, the s
of his career. He has 1.0 sacks this season and 9.0 for his career, last week he recovered a fumble deep in Bills territory to kill a dr
Hes the only NFC player with 8.5+ sacks & 6+ INTs since 2009,
rookie season.
Laurinaitis, due in part to his ability to play the run and pass at a h
level, rarely comes off the field. He was on the field for all of the Ra
58 defensive snaps last week and he hasnt missed a defensive s
this season.
A day before the 2012 opener, Laurinaitis signed a new five-y
contract with the Rams. After the deal was finished, Rams COO Ke
Demoff said of Laurinaitis, I think there is no player who embod
what we want on and off the field more than James Laurinaitis.
MAN IN THE MIDDLE
Linebacker James Laurinaitis is once again the Rams leading tackler this season. Hes nowreached his fourth-consecutive 100-tackle season.
Leading up to the season, several of
Robert Quinns teammates said that
they expected big things of their starting
right end as he entered his second NFLseason.
Quinn has delivered on those expecta-
tions. After dropping Ryan Fitzpatrick
on the next to last play of the game last
week, Quinn leads the Rams with 9.5
sacks this year.
Quinn is tied for 10th in the NFL and tied
for 4th in the NFC in sacks. However,
among 4-3 defensive ends, only Miamis Cameron Wake, Atlantas
John Abraham and Buffalos Mario Williams have more sacks than
Quinn.
Quinn also has 23 QB pressures and 13 QB hits this season. Hes
second among Rams in pressures, trailing only Chris Long, and hes
tied with Jo-Lonn Dunbar for second most hits.

Whether hes sacking the quarterback orchasing him down, Rams DE Chris Longcontinues to make an impact in St. Louispass defense.
Last week, Long split a sack with DTKendall Langford to give Long 7.5 sacksthis season, second among Rams.
Even when Long isnt recording sacks,
his pass-rushing presence has certainlybeen felt throughout the year. He has38 QB pressures and 22 QB hits on theseason.
Late in the second quarter of the teamsWeek 2 win, Long hurried Redskins QB Robert Griffin III and forcedan errant pass that was intercepted by Cortland Finnegan. The Ramsturned the takeaway into three points. For Long, the play representsone example of his ability to change games without recording sacks.
The former second-overall pick is looking to build on what was ahuge season in 2011. Long finished the year with 13.0 sacks, whichranked seventh in the NFL.
With his 13th sack, Long equaled his Hall of Fame fathers careerhigh for sacks in a season. Howie Long had 13 sacks for the Raidersin 1983.
In late July, the Rams rewarded Long with a new four-year contractthat will keep him in place as a centerpiece for the defense for yearsto come.
LONG ON TALENT
DE Chris Long
LB Jo-Lonn Dunbar is one of sixnew starters on the Rams defensethis season, and his play-makingability has been a welcomed addi-tion to the unit.
Last week, Dunbar posted eighttackles and clinched the win with alate interception.
Dunbar ranks second amongRams with 122 tackles, trailing only
James Laurinaitis. Hes been aforce against the run - as evidencedby his team-best 15 tackles for losson the year - and in the pass, as histwo interceptions, 3.5 sacks, threepasses defensed and 16 QB hitswould attest.
Dunbar joined the Rams as a free agent from the New Orleans Saand has been a consistent playmaker throughout the season. Laurinaitis, Dunbar rarely leaves the field. He played all 58 of teams defensive snaps last week against the Bills.

Janoris Jenkins is in the process ofputting a strong finish to his rookieNFL season.
Last week, he was credited with sixtackles and two pass breakups in thewin at Buffalo.
In Week 13, he raced for a loose balland recovered a 49ers fumble in thefourth quarter. He then stumbled into
the end zone to set up the game-tyingtwo-point conversion.
The touchdown was Jenkins thirdof the year, and he became the firstRams rookie with three defensivetouchdowns in a season.
The touchdown against San Francisco came a week after Jenkinssomething that no other player had accomplished in the 75-year tory of the Rams. He intercepted two passes last week and returboth of them for touchdowns. He became just the fourth NFL rooand first since 1960 to accomplish the feat. Jenkins was named NDefensive Player of the Week for the effort.
Jenkins leads the Rams with 14 pass breakups and is tied forteam lead with three interceptions on the season.
The Rams rookie hails from a hotbed of NFL talent. When it comto producing NFL players, few places in the country can rival Muck.
Jenkins is the latest in a long line of NFL players who hail from small South Florida city of Pahokee. The Rams selected Jenkins the 39th pick in Aprils draft.

When free agency began in earlyMarch, the Rams quickly moved toland their top target. That man wasCB Cortland Finnegan, and youd behard pressed to find an offseasonacquisition across the NFL who hashad as big an impact as Finnegan.
Finnegan recorded an interceptionin each of his first three games withSt. Louis. In Week 1, he returned an
interception 31 yards for a touchdown.In Week 2, his pick set up a late firsthalf field goal.
Finnegan played for Rams HeadCoach Jeff Fisher for five seasons inTennessee, where the Samford product developed a reputation as afeisty, aggressive playmaker.
In addition to providing a boost with his play, Finnegans leadershiphas been key in the Rams locker room. Hes willingly accepted amentor role in a secondary that includes rookies Janoris Jenkins,Trumaine Johnson and Rodney McLeod.

The Rams used the next-to-last pick in
Aprils draft to select Abilene Christian
RB Daryl Richardson, and the earlyreturns on that investment have been
huge.
Richardson has rushed for 461 yards
on just 88 carries. His 5.2 yards per
carry average is fourth-best among NFL
running backs this season, trailing only
C.J. Spiller, Adrian Peterson and Bryce
Brown, and Richardson is sixth over-
all in yards per run. Washington QB
Robert Griffin, III and Carolina QB Cam
Newton are also ahead of Richardson.
Paired with Steven Jackson, Richardsons explosiveness has given
the Rams a nice 1-2 punch at the running back position. Of
Richardsons 88 carries this season, 11 have gone for 10 yards or
more, and two have gone for 40 yards or more.

Early December can sometimes bring therookie wall that sees some players startto slow down late in their first season. Itsbeen the opposite for Rams first-round pickMichael Brockers.
Last week in Buffalo, Brockers recorded1.5 sacks, his second multi-sack game thisseason. Brockers now has 4.0 sacks thisseason.
As a team, the Rams held Buffalos vaunt-ed rushing attack to just 61 yards, andBrockers played a big part in that. Heracked up six tackles, including one for loss. In addition to his sacks,he recorded two QB pressures and two QB hits.
Two weeks ago, Brockers posted a career-high 11 tackles in theteams win over San Francisco. RB Frank Gore gained just 58 yardson 23 carries, thanks in part to Brockers either shedding blockers oreating space.
Brockers, the teams first round pick in Aprils draft, missed the firstthree games after suffering an ankle injury in the preseason finale.He has since totaled 48 tackles and 12 QB pressures.

Three weeks ago, the Rams had their
starting offensive line back to full force for
the first time since their season opener,
and its no coincidence that St. Louis has
in turn won three consecutive games.
C Scott Wells, who had missed nine
games after breaking his foot in the open-
er, returned to the lineup vs. Arizona. Rob
Turner opened the season as the teams
starting left guard but moved to center
when Wells was injured. With Wells back,
Turner returned to guard, which allowed
the Rams to improve at two positions with one players return.
St. Louis rushed for 179 yards as a team in their win at Arizona. In
the last two weeks, the Rams have allowed just three sacks in 81
drop backs.

The Rams have been among the NFLsbest this season when it comes to prevent-ing big plays.
On the season, St. Louis has allowedjust 29 pass plays of 20 yards or more,tied for third lowest total in the NFL. Only
Pittsburgh (23) and San Francisco (27)have been better. Seattle has also allowed29.
The Rams pass defense fueled theteams win in Arizona three weeks agoas St. Louis intercepted four passes andreturned two of them for touchdowns. Last week, Jo-Lonn Dunbarsinterception sealed the teams win.
Led by Cortland Finnegan (3) and Janoris Jenkins (3), eight differ-ent players have recorded at least one interception for the Ramsthis season.

The Rams ability to catch Bills running
