The second-year Ram says the addition of Bobby Wagner won’t lessen his role and will make the defense better this season by giving it two versatile inside linebackers.
THOUSAND OAKS — Ernest Jones understands the days of NFL teams consistently playing two or more inside linebackers are fading, but the Rams’ second-year linebacker wants to bring back the smashmouth approach that Ray Lewis and other legends played with before defenses evolved to keep pace in today’s pass-heavy league.
Wagner will likely stay on the field when the Rams go into their dime package, a formation with six defensive backs and one inside linebacker. That will probably take snaps from Jones, but the Rams will search for ways to ensure their young linebacker is heavily involved with the defense. Jones’ old-school physical play style helped the Rams become Super Bowl champions, but he wants to continue developing as an all-around linebacker, and having Wagner by his side has helped with that.
“I think me and Bobby have done a great job coming in, doing the things necessary to rush the passer, just create mismatches and allow us to go out there and win,” Jones said. “Effect the game in not only run defense and pass coverage, but also rushing the passer from outside position to rushing versus running backs.”
“I feel good,” Stafford said Sunday. “I’m ready to go, no limitations. I feel great. I’m ready to go play. … I feel really good. I feel like I could make every throw. Don’t know what else you need to hear from me.”
