Earlier this week, former NFL head coach Mike Martz made some strong remarks toward Los Angeles Rams first-year head coach Sean McVay where he questioned his expertise as an offensive coordinator. In the wake of these comments, ESPN’s Adam Schefter in an interview on “Mike & Mike in the Morning” on Tuesday fired back at […]

The Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams are trying to win over fans in the City of Angels. Both teams have spent time in Los Angeles during their franchise’s history, but neither dominated the market in terms of fan base popularity like the Los Angeles Raiders. As the Chargers and Rams try to establish […]

The feud between Los Angles Rams and DT Aaron Donald continues. This had been a ongoing issue since the beginning of the new year, as Donald played well above his rookie contract and is now seeking a new lucrative deal. Donald finished 2016 with eight sacks and two forced fumbles and was rated as the […]

There has been plenty of excitement around the Los Angeles Rams since the acquisition of wide receiver Sammy Watkins from the Buffalo Bill last Friday. According to Alex Marvez of Sporting News, the Rams are taking precautionary measures to make sure their new prized receiving threat stays healthy. “The shoe thing is a very big […]

Last Friday, the Los Angeles Rams made a surprising trade to land wide receiver Sammy Watkins from the Buffalo Bills. It was a move that had even caught the former 2014 first-round pick off guard as he didn’t envision being shipped away from the Bills, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. “I was […]

The Los Angeles Rams in a surprising move on Friday morning acquired wide receiver Sammy Watkins from the Buffalo Bills. It has immediately shifted the attention toward the rest of the receiving group, namely veteran wideout Tavon Austin. According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, the Rams do not have any interest in trading […]

The Los Angeles Rams have acquired wide receiver Sammy Watkins from the Buffalo Bills for cornerback E.J. Gaines and a 2nd-round pick, according to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The Rams also received a 6th-round pick in the deal. When healthy, Watkins is one of the premier deep threats in the NFL. His speed, size, […]

Well, the Jon Gruden to the Rams rumors were fun while they lasted. Last week, Los Angeles fired head coach Jeff Fisher despite giving him a contract extension that was just revealed. Immediately, speculation about who owner Stan Kroenke would pursue for the gig commenced. The biggest names thrown out there were Jim Harbaugh, Pete […]

Well, it finally happened. A day after tying the NFL record for most losses in a career, Jeff Fisher was fired by the Los Angeles Rams. The franchise officially clinched their fifth straight losing season under Fisher (and their 10th consecutive overall) in an embarrassing 42-14 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. It was less […]

Earlier today, Los Angeles Rams owner Stan Kroenke finally pulled the cord on Jeff Fisher, firing the head coach after a 4-9 start. Their defense has looked great at times, but it’s given up a ton of points lately. Really, the offense has been this team’s problem. LA ranks last in both yards and points […]

Just hours before the Rams received a butt-whooping at the hands of the Patriots, it was revealed that the franchise gave Jeff Fisher a two-year contract extension. The defeat puts their record at 4-8, making it unlikely that Fisher, for the fifth time in five seasons with the Rams, will even finish .500. Apparently, the […]

Moving to Los Angeles hasn’t changed the ill fortunes of the Rams. In their first season back in their longtime home, the Rams currently sit at 4-7. It’s likely going to get worse; their next three games are at New England, home against the NFC South-leading Falcons, and again on the road in Seattle. Before […]

The Los Angeles Rams have had quite an eventful week. While the team sits at 4-5 on the season (still technically in the playoff race), this week has been full of change. On Monday, the Rams named number one overall pick Jared Goff the starting quarterback for their game against the Dolphins. Head coach Jeff […]

The Los Angeles Rams are reeling, but Jeff Fisher continues to stay calm. He’s basically the dog sitting in the burning house meme, saying “This is fine.” At 3-5, the Rams are looking at a fifth straight year under Fisher with a sub-.500 record. The last time they won eight games was 2006, and the […]

It’s been a rough stretch for the Los Angeles Rams, and some of their supporters are getting desperate. After a surprising 3-1 start that featured upset wins over the rival Seahawks and Cardinals, LA has dropped four games in a row. Other than a narrow loss to the Lions, the offense has been stagnant, and […]

Despite Cam Newton‘s complaints about the officiating and his safety on the field, the Los Angeles Rams won’t change their game. It’s not like they need any extra motivation, given that Newton is the NFL’s reigning MVP. The Rams are a physical defense, and they’ll continue to be physical this Sunday. From the LA Times’ […]

Many Rams fans, and NFL fans in general, were puzzled by a pair of Jeff Fisher‘s play calls in the fourth quarter yesterday. With Los Angeles trailing the Buffalo Bills 23-16 with under six minutes to go, Fisher elected to kick a field goal from inside the 10-yard line. If they didn’t convert, they could […]

The Los Angeles Rams are surprisingly sitting on top of the NFC West right now with a 3-1 record. That being said, the team still has not looked good. They look like the same old Rams that cannot get it done on offense and use their defense to sneak by. The reason why they have […]

Ahead of this weekend’s Buffalo Bills–Los Angeles Rams game, Bills coach Rex Ryan took back some negative sentiments he expressed about Aaron Donald in 2014. Ryan said that Donald, who is regarded by many experts as the best defensive player in the game today (aside from a healthy J.J. Watt), couldn’t “hold (Richardson’s) jock” as […]

Rex Ryan loves to talk, and with the benefit of hindsight, he doesn’t always love his own words. Back in 2014, Ryan, who was still coaching the New York Jets at the time, made this comment about the Rams‘ star defensive tackle Aaron Donald when he was selected to the Pro Bowl over Sheldon Richardson […]

In the NFL today, few position groups are more essential to a team’s success than the secondary. Even though the ground game still has a prominent role, there’s no doubting that it’s predominately an aerial league now. Edge rushers are more valuable than ever as a result, as well as cornerbacks and safeties. Stopping the […]

Jeff Fisher has been waiting two years to respond to a comment made by Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians. On Sunday, Fisher and his Los Angeles Rams came away with an upset victory in Arizona, pushing their record to 3-1 while driving the Cardinals’ down to 1-3. In the aftermath, Fisher harkened back to a […]

From Carson Wentz to Dak Prescott, rookie quarterbacks have shined through the first three weeks of the regular season. A total of four rookies have started games in 2016, and their numbers have been impressive. Via Gil Brandt: 4 rookie QBs have made 8 starts this season. Their stats: Record: 6-2 TD: 9 (6 pass, […]

After struggling in their first game of the season, the Los Angeles Rams look to be back on track. The team now has back-to-back wins and is 2-1 for the first time since Jeff Fisher took over. The most impressive part of back-to-back wins is the variety in them. Their first win came in a […]

Todd Gurley appears to be going through the “sophomore slump.” He has only been able to gain a total of 98 yards in two games this season, and the Rams offense looks weak. Gurley is going to be fine though; Fisher and company will find a way to get him open space. If Gurley manages […]

In their return to Los Angeles, the Rams were able to come out with smiling faces. While their game was not pretty, they still got the W. They were able to beat the Seahawks in a defensive battle, 9-3. At the end of the day, this sort of score should be expected; it is Rams […]

Monday night’s San Francisco 49ers–Los Angeles Rams game wasn’t pretty, unless you’re a Niners fan. Even then, it was pretty difficult to watch at times. The Rams’ first game back in L.A. didn’t go as planned. Their anemic offense scored no points, and their defense was eventually cracked in the fourth quarter with the ejection […]

While his team struggled to do anything on offense on Monday night, number one overall pick Jared Goff stood on the sidelines. Goff did not suit up for the Rams‘ first game of the season and had a good view of how tough the NFL can be. While Goff was inactive for Week 1, head […]

The Los Angeles Rams were beaten down last night by a score of 28-0 at the hands of the San Francisco 49ers. Case Keenum, the starting quarterback for the Rams, had a horrific night and really struggled to throw the ball all night. On a few occasions, Keenum missed his target by a wide margin. […]

The Rams and their head coach Jeff Fisher might be new to Los Angeles, but they still have plenty of experience in getting the job done. The Lakers‘ newest head coach, Luke Walton, sees how experienced Fisher is with coaching teams, and because of it, he decided to go take a visit to Fisher in […]

It’s an exciting time for Jared Goff, the University of California star who went number one overall in this year’s NFL draft to the recently relocated Los Angeles Rams. To make things even more exciting, he’s a Northern California-native and is getting in on the Kevin Durant hype as much as anyone in Warriors Nation. […]

The Rams certainly have a long history in the city of Los Angeles, having played in Southern California from 1946 through the 1994 season. While some fans are welcoming them back with open arms, others are waiting for the franchise to prove themselves to the city that they abandoned for two decades. The product on the […]
