THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) — The Los Angeles Rams had the NFL’s top defense in 2020, and a certain amount of regression was almost inevitable this year.

Four games into an otherwise successful season, the Rams are trying to stop the regression from becoming a full-fledged erosion.

Los Angeles is also giving up 24.8 points per game, 18th in the league.
