Kevin Mitchell and Antonio Pierce see a lot of action tonight. I'm interested to see how Pierce has matured. Was his outing against the Dolphins just a mirage? Is Pierce a legitimate backup middle linebacker? Does Mitchell have anything left? Faulk and the Rams' receivers will pose a great test for them.
You guys know how I feel about exposing Coles in a meaningless game, especially with how he's a bit banged up. There's no better reason to sit him tonight, and let Taylor Jacobs, Cliff Russell, and Darnerian McCants see some extensive action against the starters. Will we see the QBs and WRs get on the same page and get some completions downfield? Will Rod Gardner step up and get involved this time? One catch for 8 yards this preseason !? Come on, Rod! Show us something!
I'm also wondering if our defensive line will generate the same pressure that a much weaker Kansas City defense was able to get on Marc Bulger. After that performance, the Ram offensive line will be hungry, and eager to atone for that embarrassment last week.
