The Rams (4-6) (0-4 V) lost to Atlanta 17-34, in Week 11 and sit second in the NFC West. QB Sam Bradford completed 27 of 42 passes for 233 yards with two TD’s and one interception. RB Steven Jackson ran for 54 yards off 11 carries, while WR Danny Amendola made eight catches for 63 yards, while TE Michael Hoomanawanui and WR Brandon Gibson added their TD’s. Their defense got no sacks or interceptions. RB Steven Jackson had 61 yards rushing and receiving, becoming the fourth Rams player to top 10,000 yards from scrimmage, but he had only 14 touches. The first nine games, Jackson averaged about 24 touches. "I like to be in the flow of the game and touch the ball on each and every drive," Jackson said. "When they keep you on the sideline for so long, it makes it hard to get into a rhythm." All the Rams can do now is get back to work. The Rams offense is ranked 27th (305ypg) with a 24th ranked pass game (203ypg) and an 18th ranked ground game (102ypg). Danny Amendola leads the Rams offense with three TD’s. The Rams battle the Broncos 26th ranked defense (375ypg), their 20th ranked pass rush (232ypg) and their 31st ranked rush defense (143ypg). The Broncos give up the 30th most amount of points per-game (28.7ppg).
The Broncos (3-7) (2-3 H) lost in San Diego 14-35, in Week 11 and sit last in the AFC West. QB Kyle Orton completed 24 of 38 passes for 217 yards with one TD and an interception. RB Knowshon Moreno had 13 carries for 58 yards with a TD, while WR Brandon Lloyd made six catches for 78 yards with one TD. Their defense got one sack and one interception. Denver was 1-of-12 converting third downs and allowed at least 400 yards for the fourth time in six games. The one thing the Broncos have consistently done is play inconsistently. They surrendered 59 points in a loss to the Raiders. They scored 49 in a victory over the Chiefs and then allowed 35 in a loss to the Chargers on Monday. Up one week and down for a few more, the Broncos have found themselves on the wrong side of the ebb and flow of things. "If it was just one thing, it would be a simple answer," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said. "But that's why this game is not a simple game." Broncos have not won back-to-back games since November turned to December in the 2009 season. The Broncos offense is ranked 10th overall (359ypg) with the NFL’s fourth best ranked pass game (284ypg) and the NFL’s worst ranked running game (75ypg). They score the 19th least amount of points per-game (21.7ppg). Brandon Lloyd leads their offense with seven TD’s. The Broncos go up against the Rams 15th ranked defense (332ypg), their 19th ranked pass rush (230ypg) and their 10th ranked rush defense (101ypg). The Rams defense gives up the eighth least amount of points per-game (19.8ppg).
