Myles Garrett will immediately upgrade this part of Rams defense
The run defense of the Los Angeles Rams will be the biggest beneficiary of the Myles Garrett-Jared Verse swap. While Garrett is a marginal upgrade from Verse as a pass rusher, he will dramatically move the needle in helping stop the run. This is one of the biggest pain points and regression for Verse from […]
Rams have 2 ‘Gold Shield’ players
The NFL is assigning special “Gold Shield” emblems that only five players in the league will wear next season. These emblems will go to the winners of five coveted awards: MVP, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, Offensive Rookie of the Year, and Defensive Rookie of the Year. That means that […]
The most frustrating part of the Rams schedule
When the Los Angeles Rams schedule came out earlier this spring, there were a few notable items that popped up right away. That ranges from their elongated travel responsibilities to a few different arduous stretches, among other details. But as the offseason progresses, there’s one specific note that’s becoming increasingly frustrating: We have to wait […]
Is Myles Garrett or Trent McDuffie the bigger addition?
When the Los Angeles Rams traded for Trent McDuffie, the general reaction was that the team had addressed its biggest need and therefore had the best roster in the NFL. Combined with signing fellow cornerback Jaylen Watson, the Rams were Super Bowl favorites after two offseason additions to the roster. Not a single person said: […]
Can Blake Corum reach 1,000 yards rushing this season?
Running back Blake Corum was one of the biggest breakout performers for the Los Angeles Rams last season. After posting a paltry 207 yards and no touchdowns on the ground as a rookie, Corum took on a much larger share of the running back workload in 2025, rushing for 746 yards on 5.1 yards per […]
It’s been 25 years since Marshall Faulk made NFL award history
Even though it’s been 25 years since Marshall Faulk last won Offensive Player of the Year, the former Rams and Colts legend is still the most recent player to win the award in back-to-back years. Not only did he win it back-to-back, Faulk joined Earl Campbell as the only players in history to win the […]
Colby Parkinson is extremely valuable to the Rams offense
This is the slowest time in the NFL calendar, when teams are for more concerned about their players staying out of the news than they are about actually making any. Even so, the content game never sleeps, neither does the 24-hour news cycle, and our football-crazed society demands some sort of NFL content even during […]
Stetson Bennett is completely expendable
The Los Angeles Rams intended to draft Ty Simpson even before Jimmy Garoppolo decided to retire. LA was able to solve the quarterback position long-term and prepare for life after Matthew Stafford. They may still need a fix in the near term should Stafford miss time. A viral report from organized team activities (OTA’s) suggests […]
When will Los Angeles host the NFL draft next?
Earlier this week, the NFL finalized its dates for the 2027 NFL draft in Washington, D.C. With the league rotating cities to host its premier event outside the Super Bowl, when will the Los Angeles Rams and L.A. get their opportunity to host again? The City of Los Angeles has hosted the NFL draft once, […]
L.A. Rams News: Seahawks are a team that exists
You know it and I know it, it’s so old it’s new. Attention grabbing. Sensational headlines. I don’t make the rules, but I do follow them. Do you care about the Seattle Seahawks? I do too. They are the best team the NFL. Defending Super Bowl Champions. The Los Angeles Rams are not defending Super […]
Kevin Dotson should be Rams’ extension priority
The Los Angeles Rams have a star-studded list of players on the roster who are entering a contract year, but the one who should take first priority is probably not the first name that comes to mind among those extension candidates. What Kevin Dotson represents, which is stability and importance on the offensive line, should […]
Rams offensive records most likely to be broken by current players
Records are meant to be broken — and for the Los Angeles Rams, that reality creates one of the more interesting storylines of the next few seasons. Some franchise marks feel untouchable, preserved by eras, opportunity, and Hall of Fame careers. Others suddenly begin to look vulnerable when a roster has continuity at quarterback, explosive […]
Should the Rams be taking the Bears more seriously in 2026?
The Los Angeles Rams have received most of the headlines this offseason and are heavy favorites entering 2026. Meanwhile, the Chicago Bears surpassed all realistic expectations last season and gave L.A. a run for their money in the playoffs, so do they deserve more hype than they’ve been getting? First off, it’s crazy that Chicago […]
L.A. Rams News: Chris Long interviewed Matthew Stafford, check it out
Matthew Stafford was on the Green Light podcast with Chris Long and it’s worth your time. If you are a Rams fan this is a no-brainer to listen to, but if you like the NFL, Stafford, quarterbacks, Chris Long, whatever, it’s a great interview. I listened to it earlier this week and it’s rich with […]
What you’re reading about Ty Simpson doesn’t matter
A viral report from The Athletic suggests that Ty Simpson struggled to separate himself from Stetson Bennett in the Los Angeles Rams’ quarterback battle during organized team activities. On the surface it seems concerning that the thirteenth overall selection isn’t immediately an upgrade over a former fourth-round pick and career backup in Bennett. The report […]
Run-Off: Can Kyren Williams stave off elimination?
The importance of running backs has been a hot topic of debate for football fans over the last 20 years, and those arguments haven’t cooled off recently. If anything, the success of teams with star running backs, including Saquon Barkley’s 2,000-yard season in 2024 and Kenneth Walker III’s Super Bowl MVP award in 2025, has […]
Depth remains a concern for the Rams offensive line
Training camp for the Los Angeles Rams is set for July 25 at Loyola-Marymount University and due to recent happenings, the offensive line is under the microscope. The big guys are no longer toiling in anonymity, they will work under the bright lights. The news of of Alaric Jackson shenanigans with the opposite sex have […]
The case for and against Chris Shula as a head coach
The NFL is always searching for the next great head coach, and every season creates a new group of coordinators who begin appearing on shortlists across the league. For the Los Angeles Rams, one name quietly building that momentum is Chris Shula. Shula’s rise has been steady rather than flashy. A longtime assistant under Sean […]
Rams fans: Tag or extend Puka Nacua?
The Los Angeles Rams have every reason to make Puka Nacua one of the highest-paid players in football. After three seasons, Nacua has transformed from a fifth-round draft steal into the centerpiece of Sean McVay’s passing attack, and with the wide receiver market exploding this offseason, the timing is lining up for a blockbuster extension. […]
L.A. Rams News: It’s fine to struggle in June
Reports are emerging that neither Stetson Bennett or Ty Simpson have been wowing anyone for the Los Angeles Rams. Reportedly both have been struggling in their attempts to win the backup quarterback role. I get that it’s worth talking about, but it’s also only June. Make your mistakes in June, July and August. Heck, you […]
49ers receiver wants to jump ship to Commanders
Brandon Aiyuk has not played for the San Francisco 49ers in almost two years, but the one-time All-Pro receiver does not believe his career is over. In fact, Aiyuk continues to stay away from the 49ers facilities, but says he wants the team to cut him, at which point he says he will immediately sign […]
Matthew Stafford poised for highest-ever NFL Top 100 ranking
The NFL’s Top 100 Players of 2026 list has begun dropping, and it’s almost time to see where Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford lands. With Stafford coming off an MVP season, he’s likely to earn his highest placement ever on the list, but where exactly is uncertain. The Top 100 Players list recognizes accomplishments […]
Can you go 20-0? Assemble your Rams football legends. Answers revealed!
Over the last several months, “20-0” has become one of the most popular trivia and roster-building games among football fans. The concept is simple: build the perfect team by selecting players who fit specific categories, requirements, or clues. The challenge comes from finding the right answers without repeating selections and proving your football knowledge along […]
Fans can’t decide between Kyren Williams and Quentin Lake
The nickel cornerback or “Star” position on defense has probably gained more value over the last 20 years than any other position on that side of the ball. Thanks to the rise of slot receivers and tight ends as pass-catchers, with help from Super Bowl winners like Wes Welker and Rob Gronkowski on the Patriots, […]
Build your perfect Rams wide receiver
For years, the Los Angeles Rams have featured wide receivers with completely different skill sets. Some won with precision. Some overwhelmed defenses after the catch. Others created explosive plays that changed entire games with a single touch. But what if you could combine the best traits into one receiver? This exercise isn’t about ranking who […]
