One of the big questions for the Los Angeles Rams heading into the 2025 season was how much their defense would improve from year one to year two under defensive coordinator Chris Shula. Between the growth of young players like Jared Verse, Braden Fiske, and Kam Kinchens, as well as a greater overall comfort level, […]

After every Rams game, a Winners and Losers column is posted by JB Scott and it tends to lead to a lot of debate in the comments section about who deserved to be a winner and who played or coached poorly enough to be on the losers list. Since there is no Rams game this […]

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay proved why he’s one of the better offensive minds in the NFL in the Week 7 win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. McVay got deep in his bag, pulling out something that even he hadn’t attempted in his nine years as the Rams’ head coach and play-caller. Without wide […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense is one of the best in the NFL – I bet you didn’t have that on your bingo card. They currently rank seventh in the NFL in EPA per play, tied with the Detroit Lions in that regard, and they are tied with the Rams in 11th in points per game […]

The Indianapolis Colts are 6-1. Read that sentence again. The Colts could be 7-0 if it weren’t for several bonehead plays against the Rams. Ok, let’s not focus on what could have been. Let’s focus on the here and now. Seven weeks in and the Colts hold the best record in all of football. Even […]

The Rams lost to Mac Jones less than three weeks ago and fan confidence dropped below 60% for the first time all year, but L.A. has now won their last two games by a combined score of 52-10. Is the next fan confidence poll guaranteed to be a season high point? That’s up to Rams […]

Oddsmakers have given Kyle Shanahan and the San Francisco 49ers the utmost respect this season. Through seven games, the only games the Niners weren’t favored to win came against the Los Angeles Rams on a short week without Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall, and Jauan Jennings, and a road trip in a tough spot against the […]

Matthew Stafford seems to be paired with the best defense of his 17-year NFL career. The Los Angeles Rams rank first in Defensive EPA (Estimated Points Added) through seven weeks and Chris Shula’s side of the ball is second in points allowed and 2nd in points per drive allowed. It is the first time the […]

During the first month of the season, Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua appeared to be a lock for Offensive Player of the Year. Following his ankle injury that has kept him out for most of L.A.’s last two games, the Seahawks’ Jaxon Smith-Njigba might be on his way to stealing OPOY honors from Nacua. […]

It took a few weeks, but Colorado Buffaloes legend Travis Hunter has scored his first NFL touchdown. The Jags were blown out, losing 35-7 to the Rams, but it was hardly Hunter’s fault. The 2024 Heisman winner had 8 catches for 101 yards, including the above 34-yard touchdown. It’s the most active he’s been thus […]

Well, the 49ers beat the Atlanta Falcons. This was a not just a pallet cleanser for that ho-hum showing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but it also gave some legitimacy to the 2025 49ers. They were able to hold one of the better offenses in the NFL (well, at this point, anyways) to 10 points, […]

Since Kyren Williams’ shocking fumble against the San Francisco 49ers, he’s bounced back with some really solid performances against the Baltimore Ravens and the Jacksonville Jaguars. It’s great to see, and Williams has to keep playing clean, productive football so that he can maintain his starting spot, and keep the team and the fans on […]

The NFC West could not be closer at the top. Three teams are 5-2 after Week 7 as we enter the bye week for the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angles Rams (and the Arizona Cardinals). The San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, and Los Angeles Rams all won in Week 7 and the logjam continues. The […]

Davante Admas This was a bit of an odd game for Adams because he wasn’t the Los Angeles Rams’ leading receiver; tight end Colby […]

With all the injuries, the San Francisco 49ers ran their record to 5-2 on the season and tied with the Los Angeles Rams, barring the result of Seattle vs Houston, atop the NFC West. You have to hand it to these 49ers; the effort is evident, the team is all the way bought in, and […]

It seems as if every week the discussion for who is in the QB1 conversation changes. Last week, it was Fernando Mendoza following a strong performance against Oregon. Garrett Nussmeier, LaNorris Sellers, and others have been in the conversation throughout the season as well. That inconsistency at quarterback could work in favor of the Los […]

Even during a 17-year career with myriad ailments constantly impacting him along the way, Matthew Stafford’s 2025 training camp was most unusual. His back injury caused him to miss nearly every practice, the team sent mixed messages about the severity of the issue and a timeline for his return, and Stafford even brought out a […]

Was what we saw on Sunday the Los Angeles Rams’ best game of the year? Can anyone say “no”, or name another game that was better? I don’t think so. Had the Rams beaten the Philadelphia Eagles then we’d have some competition, but they didn’t so I think their win over the Jags is their […]

Tyson Campbell and K’Lavon Chaisson scored as many touchdowns individually as the Jacksonville Jaguars did in Sunday’s pathetic 35-7 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Across the pond, the Jags were as lifeless and poorly coached as they have been at any point this year. The offense is in complete disarray and the defense is […]

Most Rams fans were rooting for the Atlanta Falcons to beat the 49ers on Sunday night, but instead Mac Jones improved his record to 4-1 and San Francisco stayed in first place. On the bright side, the Falcons dropped to 3-3 and that means that L.A.’s first round pick from Atlanta next year got a […]
