With the Philadelphia Eagles having signed quarterback Carson Wentz to a lucrative extension, the focus has now been shifted to the Los Angeles Rams and their plan for quarterback Jared Goff.

The Rams have been the NFL’s trendsetters over the past couple years. Whether it is the way they play, their approach to team building or how they handle the offseason, coach Sean McVay’s squad has certainly bucked more than one trend. Last year, the team essentially blew off the preseason by not playing their starters. […]

The Los Angeles Rams had a spectacular 2018 campaign. They won 12 games. They won the NFC West division title. They made it all the way to the Super Bowl. And yet, Rams head coach Sean McVay is still feeling empty after his team’s Super Bowl loss to the New England Patriots. Los Angeles general […]

The big offseason story surrounding the Rams ha been Todd Gurley’s knee and although he hasn’t participated in OTA’s Sean McVay is pleased with his progress. Gurley has been present around the team for OTA’s but hasn’t done any on fieldwork. “He hasn’t [taken part in on-field drills] right now,” McVay said at Tuesday’s press […]

The Los Angeles Rams added a veteran leader and talented player in safety Eric Weddle this NFL offseason. No matter the circumstances, it would be hard to knock the addition too much – as Weddle is one of the best safeties in league history. However, head coach Sean McVay is giving another reason to think […]

Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay is known as an excellent offensive head coach and wide receiver Robert Woods says the third-year coach is still trying to find ways to improve the concepts the offense uses. McVay likes to use jet sweeps and motions to keep defenses off balance and evidently, that is going to […]

Sean McVay has already started a pretty impressive coaching tree with the latest coach to get a job being Zac Taylor with the Cincinnati Bengals. Taylor is a lot like McVay being young and a remarkable offensive mind, but he knows to make it in the league he has to be different. “If I try […]

Eric Weddle may no longer be a member of the Baltimore Ravens, but that doesn’t mean his loyalty to his former teammates has ceased. The Los Angeles Rams safety says that he will not be sharing any intel with Rams head coach Sean McVay ahead of Los Angeles’ Week 12 clash with his former Ravens […]

The Los Angeles Rams are not used to seeing star defensive lineman Aaron Donald at organized team activities, so when he is in attendance, it is a pleasant sight to see. Rams head coach Sean McVay is happy about Donald’s presence, joking that it’s nice to see him in May: “It’s nice having him around […]

The Los Angeles Rams notably reached the Super Bowl a season ago, though the NFC West franchise ultimately saw its season come to an end surrounded by controversy. With running back Todd Gurley helping to lead the Rams to an NFC Championship in 2018, the All-Pro rusher then saw limited playing time during the postseason […]

Rams coach Sean McVay is a student of the game. The young coach has made headlines for his memory recall of play-calls, and spends as much time as any coach in the league, if not more, digging through film. But, if he ever gets to another Super Bowl, he might try to study a little […]

Sean McVay has become a sort of enigma around the NFL with his offensive prowess. In the two seasons that McVay has been the head coach, the Los Angeles Rams have ranked at or near the top in every category when it comes to offense. Fans shouldn’t expect any different from the offense in 2019. […]

Todd Gurley had a stellar season last year, as he helped lead the Los Angeles Rams to the Super Bowl. After a disappointing postseason that included an apparent lingering injury, the Rams looked to bolster their running back group, and could look to take some of the load off of Gurley. After drafting Memphis running […]

For the most part, Los Angeles Rams fans were surprised and upset to see their team use a third-round pick on a running back. The Rams drafted Darrell Henderson out of Memphis with the 70th pick in this year’s draft. The Rams traded up 24 picks to snatch the dynamic running back in the third […]

The Los Angeles Rams selected University of Memphis running back Darrell Henderson in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft on Friday night, so cue all of the worrying about Todd Gurley’s knee. Rams head coach Sean McVay insists that the team’s decision to go with Henderson has nothing to do with Gurley’s health […]

The Los Angeles Rams exercised the fifth-year option on quarterback Jared Goff on Tuesday, ensuring that Goff will, at the very least, be around through 2020. Obviously, the hope is to have him under center much longer than that, and Rams head coach Sean McVay is looking forward to many years of Goff leading the […]

The Kansas City Chiefs aren’t the only team happy about the trade in which they acquired star defensive lineman Frank Clark in a deal with the Seattle Seahawks. Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay is also thrilled about the move, as he will not have to deal with the dominant pass rusher anymore: “You […]

What a difference a year can make. More than any other team entering last season, the Los Angeles Rams appeared to be set at running back with what they had in Todd Gurley and backup Malcolm Brown. Brown will play behind Gurley again in 2019 after the Rams matched his offer sheet in free agency, […]

Although considered to be voluntary workouts, players that skip their team’s early offseason programs are often criticized in the media. With the Los Angeles Rams seemingly encountering a similar issue, both cornerback Marcus Peters and pass rusher Dante Fowler have remained absent from the start of the team’s offseason activities. As a result, Rams head […]

Although a tremendous offensive mind, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay certainly had at least a little trouble drumming up some explosive plays toward the end of last season. However, that did not come as much of a surprise as running back Todd Gurley remained banged up with wide receiver Cooper Kupp being lost […]

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff’s rookie contract will be up at the end of the 2019 campaign, and the Rams don’t seem to be in any rush to extend him. Does that mean Los Angeles is waiting for Goff to prove himself more? Hardly, says Rams head coach Sean McVay. “I think he’s already […]

There have been tons of question marks concerning Todd Gurley in terms of his knee injury dating back to last season. The Los Angeles Rams season ended in debacle as they lost 13-3 in the Super Bowl against the New England Patriots. One of the concerning outcomes in the Super Bowl was the fact that […]

Todd Gurley, believe it or not, will remain a cog of the Los Angeles Rams’ offensive attack. During a Thursday appearance on the Rich Eisen Show, Rams coach Sean McVay addressed his star running back’s controversial lack of involvement during last year’s playoffs, suggesting that Gurley will be a “focal point” of Los Angeles’ offensive going […]

The Los Angeles Rams suffered an agonizing loss in Super Bowl 53 against the New England Patriots. That’s how the 2018 season ended for Sean McVay and the Rams, an utterly heart-wrenching performance. After having one of the best offenses in the NFL throughout the whole season, the Rams managed to only score three points […]

Sean McVay has become an absolute sensation in his two seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. So much so, that NFL teams are beginning to try to find their own “McVay”. In an article for The Athletic, Chris Perkins writes that the search for the next McVay has slowed down the opportunities for defensive-minded head […]

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay’s home was burglarized Thursday night, according to TMZ sports. The three men who broke into his Los Angeles home were all wearing hoodies, bandannas, and gloves. They reportedly smashed through the back door of his home and stole over $20,000 worth of valuables. According to the report, McVay […]

The Arizona Cardinals own the No. 1 overall pick in next month’s NFL Draft, but for a second, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay made Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury think he had lost it. While at dinner with Kingsbury and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, whom Kingsbury coached at Texas Tech, McVay […]

Sean McVay has become the most talked about head coach in the NFL in the past couple of seasons. This is due to him turning around the Los Angeles Rams franchise rather quickly. Recently, McVay was asked about how relationships work between the head coach and front office at the NFL owner’s meetings. Here’s an excerpt […]

The Los Angeles Rams have made a concerted effort to improve their defense this offseason, signing veterans like safety Eric Weddle and linebacker Clay Matthews. Rams head coach Sean McVay is thrilled to add both players to the mix: “We saw a lot of good stuff when we saw him (Matthews) last year and I’ve […]

The Los Angeles Rams just had their most successful season in nearly 20 years. They made it all the way to the Super Bowl and were on the verge of winning a championship. But despite the success they’ve had the past couple of seasons, they’re in no rush to lock up their franchise quarterback, Jared […]

Marcus Peters had an up-and-down season during his first year with the Los Angeles Rams, but he produced enough for Rams head coach Sean McVay to want to sign the cornerback to an extension. When asked about Peters’ contract status, McVay said he “absolutely” would like to extend him, noting how Peters played much better […]

Since becoming the head coach of the Los Angeles Rams in 2017, Sean McVay has changed the culture of the organization. The previous regime of Jeff Fisher as head coach left the franchise in a mediocre state. Fisher was the head coach from 2012-2016 with a 31-45 record in that span. Unfortunately, he failed to have […]

The Los Angeles Rams made another big signing this offseason, perhaps in name only, when they inked veteran linebacker Clay Matthews to a two-year deal. Matthews spent all of his 10 NFL seasons playing at Lambeau Field for the Green Bay Packers before signing with the Rams for a max value of $16.75 million. LA, […]

Blake Bortles is going to be the backup quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams in 2019, and that’s a very good thing. Bortles, who managed to go bust with the Jacksonville Jaguars after signing a three-year extension for $54 million ($26.5 million guaranteed) after a successful performance in the 2017-18 playoffs, will look to rebound […]

Blake Bortles will never live up to the expectations expected from a top-five pick. Five years removed from the Jacksonville Jaguars choosing him third overall in the 2014 NFL Draft, that much has never been clearer. Starting his career anew as a backup with the Los Angeles Rams, though, Bortles seems confident he picked the […]

Former Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles is now reportedly a member of the Los Angeles Rams. Slated to serve as a back up quarterback for the reigning NFC Champions in Sean McVay’s offense, Bortles will remain behind Jared Goff on the Rams’ depth chart heading into the 2019 campaign. Nonetheless, Bortles still chose to sign […]

A star-studded 2018 Los Angeles Rams roster wasn’t enough to overcome a more experienced New England Patriots team in Super Bowl LIII. With a final score of 13-3, The Patriots did just enough to beat the Rams, who simply looked lost and unprepared for the biggest battle of them all. Judging from that final score, […]

The Super Bowl didn’t go as expected for the Los Angeles Rams. They would come away with just three points against the New England Patriots. The final score was 10-3, with the Patriots capturing their sixth title since 2001. Tom Brady and Bill Belichick further solidified themselves as the best ever in their respective titles. […]
