If you thought that the Los Angeles Rams drafting quarterback Ty Simpson in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft was a sign that Matthew Stafford’s career was quickly coming to an end, I have some bad news for you… Looks like there will be two more seasons of Stafford vs Seattle. I think […]
Matthew Stafford is now under contract with the Los Angeles Rams through the 2027 season. The veteran inked a one-year extension that will pay him up to $105M over the next two years. The Rams still need Ty Simpson, who they drafted with the 13th overall selection in last month’s NFL Draft. Even with Stafford […]
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford enters 2026 having just turned 38. He was set to have a base salary of $16 million, with a $12 million signing bonus. Stafford was never going anywhere with a dead cap hit north of $81 million. National reporters confirmed that Stafford, who is about to play his 18th […]
The Los Angeles Rams have once again doubled down on stability at the most important position in football, agreeing to a one-year, $55 million contract extension with veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford that keeps him under contract through the 2027 season and increases the chances of winning during the Rams’ Super Bowl window. The Matthew Stafford […]
The Rams can’t afford another September slump. With another tough first few games to begin the 2026 season, will the team’s slow starts finally catch up to them in a win-now season on deck? Since winning the Super Bowl in the 2021 campaign, the Rams have slept through the first few weeks of the season, […]
Given that the Rams’ 2021 trade for Matthew Stafford was so immediately successful, it would be easy for fans to forget that many experts in the media were quick to deride Les Snead and Sean McVay for the deal when it happened. Five seasons later, Stafford has won a Super Bowl and an MVP award, […]
Turf Show Times had had some articles about the latest Bussin’ with the Boys episode which features Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams, and I finally made the time to listen to it myself. It’s fantastic and likely worth your time. Check out these articles too: Sean McVay’s hardest moment was one of his […]
The Los Angeles Rams have one of the best general managers in the league with Les Snead, but is it good enough to say that he’s worthy of the Pro Football Hall of Fame long before his career is over? Between drafting and trading for future Hall of Famer players and building a perennial playoff […]
If Puka Nacua proves to the Los Angeles Rams that he’s put the past behind him and that he will have a squeaky clean lifestyle from here on out, he might feel worthy of the contract extension that even Sean McVay has admitted the team is worried about giving him right now. But Nacua knows […]
The GM search is still ongoing and now it appears they are down to 5 candidates. They are … interim GM Rob Brzezinski, Broncos assistant GM Reed Burckhardt, Bills assistant GM Terrance Gray, Rams assistant GM John McKay and Seahawks assistant GM Nolan Teasley. Seeing as I do not know much about what the qualifications […]
It’s possible that Sean McVay and Les Snead know something the rest of us don’t about the A.J. Brown trade market. According to NFL insider Mike Garafolo during an appearance on Rich Eisen’s show Tuesday, the Rams nearly traded for Brown earlier this offseason in a deal that would have sent Davante Adams to the […]
Plenty of headlines emerged when the Week 1 matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers was announced this offseason. For one, it will be the first regular-season NFL game played on the continent, although Australians were treated to the American Bowl in 1999. More importantly on a micro level, though, is that […]
Entering his 10th NFL season as head coach of the Los Angeles Rams, Sean McVay has become the gold standard for culture-building, player development, offensive innovation, and coaching influence across the league. The 2026 season will feature McVay’s fifth offensive coordinator, fourth defensive coordinator, and fifth special teams coordinator, yet he has remained the driving […]
Our very own Evan wrote about how much Ty Simpson could play in the 2026 season, and I’ve listened to Locked On Rams talk about Simpson’s future with the Los Angeles Rams, it all has me wondering will Simpson take any snaps in the NFL Preseason? Or not? Sean McVay and his use of starters […]
Going into the 2025 season the Los Angeles Rams were worried about Matthew Stafford and his back, but no one exactly knew how worried. Now, it’s being shared by Sean McVay that the team was apparently very worried as Stafford and those around him truly wondered if he could suit up. Of course, Stafford did […]
The Arizona Cardinals are preparing to step into the strength of the NFC West Division and attempt to upset a lot of fans and stable franchises. The Cardinals will have to learn a new offense and become the Los Angeles Rams 2.0 and mirror the San Francisco 49ers. How much this Cardinals’ offense will improve […]
I’ll never forget where I was when I watched Baker Mayfield’s debut with the Los Angeles Rams. I was standing in the general admission section of The Granada Theater in Lawrence, Kansas, in attendance at a Flatland Cavalry concert. And while Cleto Cordero was crooning the lyrics to “If We Said Goodbye,” I had my […]
The Los Angeles Rams have received a lot of praise over the last few years for drafting Puka Nacua in the fifth round of the 2023 draft, but in the shadow of the best day three pick of the past decade is the fact that L.A. also did great on day two. That year, Rams […]
Los Angeles Rams rookie quarterback Ty Simpson will rarely see the field in 2026, but he should still get more playing time than we anticipate. This is not to say that Simpson should be the primary starter if Matthew Stafford suffers a significant injury or is otherwise unavailable. TST’s JB Scott went more in-depth on […]
Sean McVay acknowledged that drafting Ty Simpson was not an easy decision, but that as head coach of the Los Angeles Rams it’s important to balance moves that will be better both for the short-term and the long-term. In an interview with the podcast Bussin’ with the Boys on Tuesday, McVay told hosts Will Compton […]
So, the NFL won’t let me post the video, but I’ll share the link here! If you are at all interested in learning about Mike Martz (who changed the game) or you want to relive some good and not so good days from the St. Louis Rams, then watch the video. It’s great. The Rams […]
This year’s backfield split between Kyren Williams and Blake Corum could be the most shared workload we’ve seen over Sean McVay’s time with the Los Angeles Rams. It’s one of the most interesting dynamics across this refreshed roster. In his early years, McVay seemed adamantly opposed to a shared backfield. Todd Gurley shouldered an outsized […]
When the Los Angeles Rams begin OTAs next week on May 26, the player with the most to gain is also one of the biggest stars in the NFL. Puka Nacua can prove he’s back on the right track after checking in and out of rehab, setting himself up for a record-breaking payday extension before […]
This offseason, there was less speculation about Matthew Stafford’s future and retirement timeline than in previous years, and that could become more of a trend than an outlier despite him being the second-oldest expected starter in the NFL at age 38. Rams fans could be looking forward to at least four more years of Stafford […]
