Laurinaitis picked up a sack and five tackles Sunday as St. Louis took out Arizona 24-22.

Laurinaitis isn't having a monster season with 29 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble through four games. However, with fellow linebacker Alec Ogletree out for the season, Laurinaitis may have to pick up the slack and remains in line for another triple-digit tackle season

Laurinaitis topped 100 tackles again in 2014 and added 3.5 sacks.

Laurinaitis isn't the monster IDP he once was, but will still give you triple-digit tackles every season and a few sacks. However, his lack of forced fumbles or interceptions is a little worrisome for the future.

Laurinaitis recorded six tackles Thursday but the Rams fell to the Cardinals 12-6.
