I know for most of the Rams fan base, the Brian Quick train has shipped and sailed.  But I believe in Brian Quick's third season he will be very productive in the Ram's offense this year.

In part one of this two part article series on the Rams, you saw that I addressed the offensive side of the ball for the Rams. In part two, I will address the defense. The Rams have handed the helm of the defense back over to Gregg Williams after firing Tim Walton after one season. In the fans eyes, they were not head over heals over defensive coordinator Walton, and many are happy to have Williams back.

Many people have viewed the St. Louis Rams as a team on the rise. After consecutive seven-win seasons, they are looking to make a splash into the upper half of the league and finally become a playoff team in the third season under Jeff Fisher. Following the draft in May the Rams have set a good foundation on offense to be successful heading into the 2014 season.

San Francisco: Super Bowl Losers Curse Not an Issue
GM Trent Baalke, Coach Jim Harbaugh & unheralded executive Paraag Marathe lead one of footballs most innovative & successful organizations. In a primetime rematch with perennial contender Green Bay, San Francisco was well-prepared & executed it's game plan at a postseason level. In a week 1 filled with sloppy play & mental lapses across the league; San Francisco was firing on all cylinders. The running game never established except spots in the 3rd Quarter, which forced 2nd year starter Colin Kaepernick to take the stage. Credit also goes to Anquan Boldin, who delivered one of the best performances of his career.
