St. Louis Rams Defensive Front Off to Historically Bad Start

Last season the St. Louis Rams were one of the best in the league when it came to sacking the quarterback. Led by Robert Quinn's 19 sacks the unit has 53 on the season. With the talent that it had going in to the 2014 season expectations were that they would do more of the same. There were some that dared to think the group could have a record breaking kind of year.

Just not the kind of record that they've actually set (which has made this clown so sad).

They are off to the worst start in the history of the game (for as long as sacks have been recorded at least):

After no sacks tonight, the Rams have the fewest sacks through a team's first five games in NFL history (1)

Losing Chris Long early in the season doesn't help, but that alone does not make up for the big difference. As bad as it looks there is a silver lining.

At least they can't get any worse.
