Aaron Donald unretiring doesn’t guarantee Rams a Super Bowl

Aaron Donald’s potential unretirement seems to be at a fever-pitch, but Donald joining the Los Angeles Rams does not guarantee a Super Bowl victory. The Rams have had Donald on their roster before, and L.A. lost plenty of games. That’s not a knock on Donald, but it is indicative of football being a team sport […]

Myles Garrett voted as NFL’s best edge rusher

When the Cleveland Browns drafted Myles Garrett with the first overall pick in 2017, analysts were calling him a generational pass rusher, the type who only comes around every 20 years. This type of praise can often be a player’s omen, a sign of disappointing results like Jadeveon Clowney. But in this case, they were […]

Build the perfect Rams defensive lineman

If we’re being honest, this exercise could probably end after one sentence: “Aaron Donald.” And, to be fair, nobody would argue with that answer. Donald is widely considered one of the greatest defensive players in NFL history, winning three Defensive Player of the Year awards while redefining what an undersized interior defender could accomplish. If […]

L.A. Rams News: They have good cornerbacks

I’ll concede that Trent McDuffie and Jalen Watson must stay healthy for the title of this Random Ramsdom to have a chance at being true come for the regular season, but as it stands, the Los Angeles Rams have a good cornerback room. It’s improved from last year, it’s perhaps the best CB room the […]

Sean McVay is a bellwether of NFL offensive trends

Earlier in Sean McVay’s career with the Los Angeles Rams, you could levy a fair complaint that he was often slow to adjust—whether in-season or in-game. But since a catastrophic Super Bowl defeat at the hands of Bill Belichick in 2018, McVay has continued to find ways to reinvent himself as well as his offensive […]

Cowherd: Rams better than 49ers at cutting bait

The San Francisco 49ers backed themselves into an uncomfortable corner with Brandon Aiyuk and having to listen to the updates about that situation every day has become exhausting for every NFL fan on the planet. It’s a situation that the Los Angeles Rams would avoided long ago, according to Colin Cowherd. The outspoken sports talk […]

Worst contracts in recent NFL history

With so many management misfires over the years in the NFL, it’s tough to find the worst contract in recent history. Here are my top five choices. Could the Rams be number one? Allen Robinson When the Rams signed free agent Allen Robinson to a three-year, $46.5 million contract in 2022, I actually thought it […]

Aaron Donald supports Chris Johnson with ALS ice bucket challenge

Donald recently participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge in support of former NFL player Chris Johnson, helping raise awareness for ALS research and encouraging others to get involved. The Ice Bucket Challenge has long served as a powerful fundraising campaign, bringing together athletes, celebrities, and fans to shine a light on the fight against […]

Someone didn’t rank Trent McDuffie as a top-10 CB

The Los Angeles Rams traded a first-round pick for Trent McDuffie and immediately signed him to a record-setting $124 million contract, but is he the best cornerback in the NFL? Is he in the top-5 or the top-10? At least one person who spoke to ESPN didn’t have McDuffie ranked in the top-10 and his […]

The reason why Kyren Williams wasn’t ranked as a top-10 RB

Despite ranking sixth in rushing yards last season, Kyren Williams only got an “honorable mention” on a recent top-10 running backs list at ESPN, an order determined by a survey of execs, coaches, and scouts. But it could be less of an indictment on Williams and more of a credit to the Rams offensive line. […]

Prediction of Rams 2026 captains

Yesterday, I wrote about the Rams captain classes from previous seasons. Now, its time to predict who the Rams will choose for their 2026 season. The Rams value a strong locker room and have a number of candidates who appear worthy of wearing the “C” on their uniform. The players will cast their votes, but […]

L.A. Rams News: Plenty of breakout candidates

There are always potential breakout candidates across the NFL, and that’s not unique to the Los Angeles Rams. What is unique to the Rams is they have a very real chance to compete for a Super Bowl in 2026. In order to succeed they are likely going to need a complete roster to make that […]

PFF tabs Sean McVay as NFL’s best head coach

There has been little debate over who the brightest offensive mind in football has been over the past decade, but now Pro Football Focus has gone one step further. In its rankings entering the 2026 season, PFF named Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay as the best head coach in the NFL, placing him […]

Brendan Sorsby would be a star in the CFL

If the Rams end up needing another quarterback next year, whether it’s because Matthew Stafford retired, and/or Stetson Bennett is no longer on the roster, then the currently jobless Brendan Sorsby would be a great option in the 2027 draft. Unable to play in the NFL, the CFL, or for a college program in 2026, […]

How your Rams opinions can be shared on the TST Homepage

Do you have something you really want to get off of your chest about the L.A. Rams or the NFL? Do you have a hot take about the 49ers or Seahawks? Did you see a tweet or a video about the Rams that has your mind racing and you want to find out what other […]

History of Rams captains in Sean McVay era

Since taking over the Los Angeles Rams in 2017, Sean McVay has built far more than a winning football team. He has established a culture centered on selflessness, accountability, and putting the team above individual recognition. The phrase “We Not Me” has become synonymous with the McVay era, serving as the foundation for everything from […]

6 Rams who will have the training camp spotlight

The Los Angeles Rams start 2026 training camp in under three weeks, with all players reporting on July 25. From Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua and Myles Garrett, the Rams have plenty of star power who command attention every time they play or practice. But they won’t be alone. Here are six other players who […]

5 predictions for Rams offense

Every immediate move that the Los Angeles Rams have made this offseason is a move that helps the defense. The Rams didn’t do anything to help the offense next season—that we know about yet, at least. Third-round pick Keagan Trost could be the closest to seeing the field, among new players on offense. Every single […]

L.A. Rams News: This roster should breed competition

The Los Angeles Rams had a great 2025 season, but one thing that held them back was their secondary unit who seemed to give up big plays at the worst times, and for whatever reason, they weren’t consistent. To be fair, at times L.A. defense was great all around, but that wasn’t often enough. Going […]

Rams’ signing of Jaylen Watson is flying under the radar

The Los Angeles Rams’ offseason signing of cornerback Jaylen Watson has recently been lost in the shuffle. It’s probably fair because the trade acquisitions of Trent McDuffie and Myles Garrett figure to be monumental for the team. On draft day the selection of Ty Simpson earned more headlines than nearly any other move by the […]

Poona Ford is still an unsung hero

The Los Angeles Rams have tons of both firepower and star power along their defensive front. Obviously, Myles Garrett is the biggest star of the group, and you’d expect nothing less from the best defensive player in the NFL. Byron Young is generating plenty of hype at the other edge spot. Kobie Turner is a […]

Build the perfect Rams linebacker

The Los Angeles Rams have been fortunate to feature some outstanding linebackers throughout franchise history. Some became fan favorites because of their relentless tackling, while others stood out for their intelligence, speed, physical presence, or ability to lead a defense. Every era has produced linebackers with different strengths, making it nearly impossible to crown one […]

What could Aaron Donald contribute if he returned to Rams?

Aaron Donald could be the final piece the Los Angeles Rams need to make good on their 2026 Super Bowl expectations. A return feels more and more likely as the start of the regular season approaches. You simply cannot have a better offseason than adding Trent McDuffie, Jaylen Watson, Myles Garrett, and Donald to an […]

What would Aaron Donald return mean for Braden Fiske?

The Los Angeles Rams drafted Braden Fiske shortly after Aaron Donald retired, but the two have still managed to spend time together anyway, including working out and going to sporting events. The duo has never played together, although that could change if momentum continues to lean towards Donald return from retirement, giving every member of […]

Top 10 Greatest American Sports Moments
