The 49ers had their way with the Rams.

i will say it again the rams have one of the best d/lines in the game

i think they have one of the most talented d-lines

but talent & performance dont always go hand in hand

haynesworth was one of the most physically gifted players of his generation ...

but will never be ranked among the best

we ran it in down their throats last time we played also ...

must be their Achilles heel ?

their d/line isnt ranked 26th

In regards to PPG, it is. Their D is also ranked 29th against the run and they've allowed more rushing TDs than any other defense in the league.

You have no evidence to support that. Redskins and 49ers ran right through them.

This is definitely true.

Aaron Donald and Robert Quinn ring a bell?

their d/line is one of the best in the game , but whether they are good or bad it doesnt take away that our o/line played well vs them

Their d-line is statistically one of the WORST in the game. 4th worst in the NFC and 7th worst in the NFL. And it does take away because an o-line performing well against a bad d-line is not impressive.

Not quite. The 49ers had 113 yds on 33 caries for 3.4 ypc against the Rams - hardly impressive. They did most of their damage via the air. The 49ers ran better against the Seahawks. In any case this is much too small of a sample size to come up w/ any definitive conclusions.

I agree but you cant call them one of the best dlines in the league.

Again - too small of a sample size. You have to throw out 1/3 of this since it was the game against the Redskins. That leaves the Colts & 49ers & the 49ers do have a pretty good RB. Need to let this play out for a while till declaring the strength of either unit.

The 49ers also don't have a RB so that could explain their lack of running game against one of the worst defenses against the run. Carlos Hyde is okay but he's not a top 10 back in the league right now.

I agree it's too early but at this point, saying the Rams have a decent defense is not accurate.

I dont think you could name me 10 better RBs than Hyde.

In my opinion, Le'Veon Bell, LeSean McCoy, Frank Gore, Ezekiel Elliott, Devonta Freeman, Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley, Kareem Hunt, Demarco Murray, CJ Anderson. You can also put in an argument for Jordan Howard and Leonard Fournette.

I dont know that Id agree with everybody you listed there but I might add one or 2 others so you might be right.

Id put Bell, DJ, McCoy, Freeman, Zeke, Hunt, Cook, and Gurley there. Howard maybe. Fournette I dont think Id put there yet but maybe. Murray maaaaaybe but I think hes lost a step. Anderson and Gore are definite nos for me.

Hes around that 10 spot though Id say

The argument can definitely be made for him to be in the top 10. Only reason I put Gore in there was because he's been consistent for the last 12-13 years. This year, he's a little slow out the gates but he does play for the dreaded Colts lol. Demarco definitely has lost 2 or 3 steps but he's still a solid 1,000+ yard rusher. Also a decent receiving back as well. 2015 was an anomaly year for Murray, in my opinion.

Well, Krush is correct in that they have one of the most, if not the most talented group of DL. I would take Donald & Quinn over any DL we have not named Allen in a second. Many think Donald is the BEST DL in the league along with Watt and this discussion has been on-going for 2 seasons now.
Have they shown up this year, no they are struggling somewhat.
