I have been quietly thinking to myself the last week that this game can be dominated by Floyd who has been very quiet so far in the post season. Today I was watching an interview with Collinsworth and after mentioning the obvious duo of Donald and Miller, he brought up Floyd and I just smiled. I'm calling for a big game out of Floyd with a couple of sacks and hurries as they focus on the other two and of course Gaines getting after it as well.
 
If this DL doesn't dominate I'm gonna be pissed. We should see the center and right side get whipped by Gaines, Robinson, & Floyd. If the Rams flip AD to RG it'll be even uglier. The way Von's playing on top of that and AD as always we should have wins across the front.

It's a really big mismatch. On paper of course. Hope these guys show out big.
 
Leonard had issues with jumping offsides but he's cleaned that up in the playoffs. If anything he'll just more 1 v 1s if they're double teaming Von and AD.
 
Rams been rushing 5 on third down for a while. There won't be any double teams unless they keep their TE in to help out and even then you got 4 mismatches in the Rams favor.

Oh, I'd have AD on their right side all day. Hell be in the backfield every play and when they run left he can still take em down for little to no gain.

I would have Floyd on the left side then AD, then Gaines, Robinson and Miller outside their left tackle
 
Need to stop Mixon though. Won't be as easy as last week since they can throw the ball as well.

So pass rush won't matter much if they don't stop their ground game.

Their LT has been rated their best lineman. He’s given up the most sacks by anyone on their line. Makes one wonder if this is the game the Rams blitz or just use a 4-5 front and cover the quick shots???
 
Our secondary just needs to tackle well. I'm betting their plan is for very quick passes to protect Burrows and their Oline. That will only work if we start missing tackles. I really can't see how they can run on us, we have to much of an advantage in the trenches. Play smart on Offense and we win this easy. I expect Akers to have a big game.

Yeah, we could literally play keep away and just run the ball. Could be a low scoring game.

Said it before saying it again that Cincy's right side Ol is ripe for DC Morris to plunder!

Two very smart seasoned Edge Rushers in Floyd/Miller should feast on Sunday. I will be highly disappointed if they do not.

I sure do not see this Cincy OL being effective in the run blocking either with Gaines/Robinson either. Both these DL'ers have come on strong this last quarter of the season. I have yet to see any OL'er move either of them out of position at the point of contact. It normally takes two OL'ers to get them moving back. Even reserve UDFA DT Marquise Copeland is catching on as a run-stuffer .... DC Morris needs to blow up that offense's only weak-link unit early & get them on their heels & desperate.

Cincy's Joe Borough will have to have a Joe Namath 1969 SB game event this Sunday in order to dominate this Ram defensive front five. But we have seen it before when they said that about the Shula's Baltimore Colt's defense too.

Namath didn't have that great of a game, he just managed it well, didn't make mistakes, hit the open receivers quickly and relied on his ground game. If Burrow does all those things then we will be in for a tough day.
