Josh Freeman tossed four interceptions and cornerback Leonard Johnson had a fumble of his own as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had five turnovers. It signaled the second week in a row where Tampa Bay gave the ball away five times.st louis rams jerseys,custom nfl jerseys cheap
Jeff Fisher's club did everything in their power to put this game away early in the second half, turning Tamp Bay's turnovers into points. Of the St. Louis Rams' 28 points, 21 came off of Freeman's interceptions, and St. Louis scored all four of its touchdowns in the second and third quarter.
Cornerback Janoris Jenkins recorded the only defensive touchdown of the game, taking his second-quarter interception back 41 yards for the score. His pick-six was his third of the season.
It was also his fourth defensive touchdown of the season, which moved him into second place for the most touchdowns on the team.
Without a doubt, coach Fisher is pleased that his rookie defensive back has scored four touchdowns, but I'm sure that he is less than impressed that there is only one offensive skill player who has scored more than four offensive touchdowns all season.
Outside of the Rams' four interceptions, they also dominated the line of scrimmage by generating intense pressure on the defensive line. Chris Long, Kendall Langford and William Hayes piled up four sacks between the three of them, and safety Quintin Mikell added a sack of his own on a safety blitz.
Today's game was the second five-sack game St. Louis has had in the last three weeks. Since Week 14, they have accumulated 13 sacks. They now have 46 sacks on the season, which has them in the top five for the most sacks in the NFL.st louis rams jerseys,custom nfl jerseys cheap
The Rams are now on pace to finish with 10 more sacks in 2012 than they had in 2011.
Sacks weren't the only type of pressure that had Freeman off his game. Fisher's defense hit No. 5 nine different times as he released the ball.
