With running backs Saquon Barkley and Derrick Henry each composing masterful seasons for their respective new teams, it is unfortunately too easy to discount Kyren Williams’ own valuable contributions to the Los Angeles Rams. He is not going to earn Offensive Player of the Year consideration or First-Team All-Pro honors, but he is a crucial […]

In Week 14, the Los Angeles Rams did the unthinkable: they beat the Buffalo Bills in a game where Josh Allen accounted for six touchdowns.

Heading into the 2024 NFL season, it looked like the Los Angeles Rams were going to be able to field a balanced offense split perfectly between the run and the pass.

After turning in a stunner of a loss in Week 2, fans weren’t particularly high on the Los Angeles Rams’ prospects in Week 3, when they welcomed a slightly less injured San Francisco 49ers to SoFi Stadium for what felt like a pretty cut-and-dry loss on paper.
