The Los Angeles Rams are not attempting to trade for Eagles receiver A.J. Brown right now, a week before he is likely to be traded by Philadelphia to the highest bidder. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport on Friday evening, the Rams were the second-most likely team to trade for Brown behind only the New […]
Matthew Stafford is the reigning MVP and the Los Angeles Rams were one play away from winning the NFC Championship last season, but one accolade he almost did not get was making the top-10 QB list of ESPN analyst Mina Kimes. During her podcast this week, Kimes ranked Stafford as only the 10th-best quarterback in […]
The Los Angeles Rams are no stranger to injuries in the offseason that can leave the upcoming season hanging in the balance. In the 2023 offseason, Cooper Kupp missed time because of a hamstring injury and opened the season on injured reserve. In the 2024 offseason, Puka Nacua nursed a knee injury that he suffered […]
The Los Angeles Rams should not trade for A.J. Brown, as reports have recently suggested they might, or any of the many other wide receivers being talked about as additional weapons for quarterback Matthew Stafford. The reason comes down to basic math. If the Rams are as committed to running 13 personnel as often as […]
After Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, the experience of the Los Angeles Rams wide receiver room gets thin really quickly. As of today, 2024 Round 6 draft pick Jordan Whittington has the inside track for WR#3. He has nine starts and 700+ offensive snaps under his belt. Working in his favor is the Rams recent […]
Are Sean McVay and Les Snead still a top coach and general manager tandem in the NFL? Regardless of whatever you think of the 2026 NFL Draft, the answer is likely yes. McVay and Snead have done fantastic work for the Los Angeles Rams ever since they joined forces. The latest draft doesn’t change what […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
New Los Angeles Rams QB Ty Simpson was a college starter for a good time instead of a long time. Simpson was arguably the best signal caller in all of college football through the first nine weeks of last season before a late downturn that can reasonably be explained by a rash of injuries. His […]
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 […]
I would normally sit here and tell you that a quarterback winning his first MVP and putting together his best individual season at age 37 is not a predictive indicator of what is to come. Smart bets would usually lean towards a return to normalcy and career baselines. I’m known for finding the contrarian angle […]
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 […]
