Latest news and updates about the Rams
For the second consecutive year, the Los Angeles Rams have made a late-season move to bolster their cornerback room, trading for Roger McCreary of the Tennessee Titans. McCreary, 25 years old, was a Round 2 selection (#35) in the 2002 draft. L.A. made a similar move last December, adding Emmanuel Forbes, another early round draftee […]

However, with positive outlooks and playoff expectations, the bar for success has risen for the Seahawks. Has this high bar maintained through the week eight bye week? As is the case with […]

The Los Angeles Rams return from their much-needed bye week to face the New Orleans Saints at SoFi Stadium. Just days before the Saints get to town, they announced that rookie quarterback Tyler Shough will make his first career start against the Rams.

The Rams and Saints once had a great rivalry, playing against each other twice per season from 1970 until 2002 realignment, but still going back and forth with barn burners most of the time after that change. That includes one of the most memorable playoff games of recent NFL history, a 26-23 Rams OT win […]

During the bye week, the Seattle Seahawks took the lead in the NFC West without even playing. To maintain this status, they need another primetime victory, this time on Sunday Night Football against the Washington Commanders on the road. A victory is crucial because the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers are expected to […]

When the Los Angeles Rams traded for a cornerback, Roger McCreary might not have been who many had in mind. While the Rams were never going to get a Sauce Gardner, Derek Stingley Jr., or Denzel Ward level of cornerback, a cornerback with some size to play on the perimeter such as Cam Taylor-Britt would […]

The Tennessee Titans were blown out 38-14 by the Indianapolis Colts in Sunday’s Week 8 game. Making matters worse, the team then traded starting cornerback Roger McCreary to the Los Angeles Rams on Monday for a questionable Day Three pick-swap return.

The Los Angeles Rams made a trade for defensive back help when they traded with the Tennessee Titans for Roger McCreary, and I am going to post a video of highlights I found below. I can’t say I know too much about McCreary, so it should be fun to learn all I can. The trade […]

Tutu Atwell could be the worst one-year free agent contract in the history of the Rams, but that’s not his fault. What would you do if someone offered you $10 million to run in a straight line? I hope you would sign that contract. I know that I would. The Rams placed Atwell on injured […]

The Los Angeles Rams added reinforcements to the cornerback room one week ahead of the NFL’s trade deadline. They acquired CB Roger McCreary from the Tennessee Titans in a late-round pick swap. This was a low risk acquisition from LA’s perspective. If McCreary can play above the relatively low expectations set for Cobie Durant, Darious […]

To make up for the cornerback out, the Titans plucked rookie seventh-round pick Micah Robinson off the Green Bay Packers’ practice squad. This is the second time […]

The last time the San Francisco 49ers faced the Los Angeles Rams, Mac Jones threw for 342 yards, and Kendrick Bourne had a field day. Jones completed 75 percent of his passes against a leaky Rams secondary that provided little resistance. Los Angeles had a bye week in Week 8, the week allowing the second-most […]

Sean McVay told the Rams media on Monday that star wide receiver Puka Nacua is going to practice on Wednesday and be “ready to go” to face the New Orleans Saints in Week 9. That would mean that Nacua only missed one start, a 35-7 win over the Jaguars, and that L.A. has survived his […]

The Tennessee Titans are trading Roger McCreary to the Los Angeles Rams, according to Adam Schefter: I need someone to make the value they got back here make sense. This is the second trade they have made where they ended up swapping picks (Jarvis Brownlee was the first). They are giving up assets without actually […]

The Los Angeles Rams have finally addressed their need at cornerback, trading with the Tennessee Titans for Roger McCreary. The Rams and Titans agreed to a pick swap of day three choices, essentially meaning that this trade boils down to Tennessee wanting to get rid of a player who L.A. feels could help them over […]

When it comes to the NFL Draft discussion, players in the FBS have dominated the conversation. However, there is another brand of Division I college football also taking place and being done at a high level.

The rest of the NFC West was on bye, and no one had to lift a finger to put the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams into first place. All the 49ers had to do was lose to the Houston Texans 26-15. I know some will comment how the Seahawks manhandled the Texans last week, […]

The Los Angeles Rams are tied for the best record in the NFC West with the Seattle Seahawks at 5-2, but they’re temporarily in a wild card spot as they approach midseason because L.A. has yet to win a conference game. However, if the Rams had tied the San Francisco 49ers two weeks ago, then […]
