After spending years eagerly shipping out future draft picks for short-term production, the Los Angeles Rams were one of the most pick-happy teams in the 2024 NFL draft, selecting ten players back in April and adding five more UDFAs to their initial 53-man roster. What gives? How did the Rams go from a team that […]

When Aaron Donald announced his retirement from the Los Angeles Rams during the offseason, it left an undeniable hole not just on the defensive line but within the organization. For a decade, Donald was the Rams’ focal point, a player who almost forced double teams, still produced at an All-Pro level, and would then hand […]

When the Los Angeles Rams welcome the Miami Dolphins to SoFi Stadium for the Week 10 edition of Monday Night Football, it will serve as a bit of a homecoming for not only Jalen Ramsey, who Les Snead traded to South Beach back in 2023, but also Odell Beckham Jr., who was a key part […]

As the Miami Dolphins face the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night, the significance of the game is understated as they are 2-6 and in the midst of a three-game skid. Despite the worry of the absence of Dolphins star Tyreek Hill, the Rams are a dangerous threat on offense, as head coach Mike McDaniel […]

On the Week 10 edition of Monday Night Football, the Los Angeles Rams and Jalen Ramsey will share the field once more, only this time, it will be as foes, no friends. That’s right, after controversially trading away the three-time All-Pro before the 2023 NFL season, the Rams and Dolphins are set to duke it […]

After doing a whole lot of nothing for the first half of their Week 9 game against the Seattle Seahawks, the Los Angeles Rams caught fire in a major way, scoring 23 points over the first two quarters plus overtime against their division rivals on the way to their first non-losing record since before opening […]

When the Los Angeles Rams traded up to acquire Braden Fiske out of Florida State in the 2024 NFL draft, it was a major risk. Sure, Fiske looked like a top-40 player, and he played alongside Jared Verse in college, who the Rams drafted at pick 19 the day before, but was he really going […]

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay isn’t the only coach who has had some success in the city. If anything, all eyes are looking at Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts after his team won it all in the World Series. McVay and Roberts have had some conversations since Los Angeles took home the […]

In 2024, no player on the Los Angeles Rams has done more to impact winning for Sean McVay’s team more than Matthew Stafford. From turning in a massive comeback attempt in Week 1 to having to seemingly prepare weekly for opponents with a different collection of supporting players, the Rams are 4-4 and in second […]

The Los Angeles Rams have effectively reset their season after beating the Seattle Seahawks in a Week 9 overtime thriller. With this victory, the Rams have climbed back up to 4-4 after consecutive wins against the Raiders, Vikings, and Seahawks. Obviously, the returns of wideouts Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp from injury have helped the […]

When Puka Nacua surprisingly showed up on the Los Angeles Rams’ Week 9 injury report mere days before their showdown against the Seattle Seahawks, it got fans genuinely concerned. After missing over a month with a knee injury only to return in impressive, dare-I-say Avengers Endgame-style form to galvanize Sean McVay’s troops and lead the […]

The Los Angeles Rams and Sean McVay boldly dealt away leading tackler Ernest Jones IV before the season. There was once zero thought that the Rams and Jones would cross paths in 2024 as he trekked to the Tennessee Titans. That thought has since changed. The Rams will reunite with their past star linebacker Sunday, […]

After spending a month plus without their top-two wide receivers, the cavalry officially came to save Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams’ season in Week 8, with Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp officially making their returns on Thursday Night Football. The offense looked alive, the Rams looked rejuvenated, and Sean McVay has a ton […]

While NFL fans have been dreaming about Cooper Kupp playing for their favorite team, the Los Angeles Rams have officially placed one of their former Pro Bowlers on the trade block. However it’s not the pride of Eastern Washington, who had a huge first game back on Thursday Night Football. That’s right, even if the […]

While the Los Angeles Rams’ 2024 season has been incredibly up and down in 2024, one of the consistently bright spots has been the play of Jared Verse, the team’s first first-round pick since all the way back in 2016 when they drafted Jared Goff first overall. Immediately stepping into the starting lineup alongside his […]

Well, he did it. Cooper Kupp came back for the Los Angeles Rams in an important Week 8 matchup on Thursday Night Football and he helped L.A. get a big win. Kupp has been out since Week 2 when he sprained his ankle. He came back and caught five catches for 51 yards and this […]

In one of the most surprising moves of the 2024 NFL season so far, Puka Nacua made his triumphant return to the field for the Los Angeles Rams just in time for Thursday Night Football, where he went off to the tune of seven catches on nine targets for 106 yards. Now granted, the idea […]

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay has quashed the swirling trade rumors regarding star wide receiver Cooper Kupp. Following a crucial victory over the Minnesota Vikings, McVay reiterated his stance in a press conference. “‘That’s not a move that we want to make.’ –Sean McVay doubles down this morning on saying the Rams aren’t planning […]

Puka Nacua didn’t skip a beat while returning from a knee injury during the Los Angeles Rams’ 30-20 win over the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday. In his first game since Week 1 after spraining his posterior cruciate ligament, the star wideout caught seven of nine targets for 106 yards. There was doubt about whether Nacua […]

Maybe it took a little help from the officials, and quelling Cooper Kupp trade rumors added a bonus, but Sean McVay earned a historic win Thursday night, according to a post on X by Los Angeles Rams RPR. “With a win against Minnesota, Head Coach Sean McVay became the winningest head coach in franchise history […]

Following a 1-4 start to the 2024-25 campaign, the Los Angeles Rams were facing tough questions. They were the kind of questions that could lead to big roster changes and the end of an era. A Cooper Kupp trade scenario was at the center of this speculation, which many fans desperately wanted to stop. Well, […]

After securing a massive win over the Las Vegas Raiders while still down most of their premier players, fans of the Los Angeles Rams are feeling darn good. Sure, the team is only averaging one win per month through the first seven weeks of the 2024 NFL season, but their defense looked darn good in […]

Just when it looked like the Los Angeles Rams’ 2024 season was going to end up being a throwaway year, Sean McVay’s squad held off the crumbling Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday afternoon, improving their record to 2-4 and keeping hope alive that the season could be saved. With the impending return of former All-Pro […]

When it comes to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 7, no player deserves the Player of the Game honors more than Cobie Durant, the third-year cornerback out of South Carolina State. Locked in at outside cornerback opposite Darious Williams, Durant did a little bit of everything against the Las Vegas Raiders; he had two […]

After making waves earlier in the week by announcing that Cooper Kupp was going to return to practice in Week 7, albeit slowly, it turned heads around Rams Nation. Suddenly, after watching ugly outing after ugly outing for Los Angeles’ finest over the first month and change of the season, with Matthew Stafford throwing to […]

In 2024, Tre’Davious White’s play for the Los Angeles Rams has been a disappointment. Long considered one of the better man-press cornerbacks in the NFL, White has been beaten at crucial spots on the outside against receivers elite and middle-of-the-road and simply hasn’t displayed the deep speed needed to catch up if his technique isn’t […]

In 2024, the Los Angeles Rams aren’t doing so hot, starting the season off 1-4 due in no small part to a wild string of injuries, but one team who is having a fantastic start to the campaign is the Minnesota Vikings, who sit atop the NFC North at 5-0. Why, you may ask, is […]

After spending the first month of the 2024 NFL season with a cornerbacks room that struggled mightily against the pass, Sean McVay made a pretty major change in Week 5, benching former All-Pro Tre’Davious White in favor of a returning Darious Williams. Earning his first snaps of the season following a spot on IR and […]

After four weeks of tragedy with one lone bright spot in the middle, Sean McVay’s Los Angeles Rams are currently sitting in the basement of the NFC West with a 1-4 record. Their offense is bereft of explosive talent. Their defense has been bad against the pass and among the worst run defenses in the […]

The Los Angeles Rams have had a dreadful start to the 2024 NFL season. Los Angeles is 1-4 through five games and has already sustained a ton of injuries. The offensive line is in shambles and the team’s top two offensive weapons, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, are both nursing injuries. Rams head coach Sean […]

Though they have one of the tougher matchups on their schedule lined up this weekend in the Green Bay Packers, if there’s any team in the NFL that could desperately use a bye week, it’s Sean McVay’s Los Angeles Rams. With seven players on the injury report, ten more on IR, and one more, Tyler […]

After taking injury after suspension after injury to start off the 2024 NFL season, the Los Angeles Rams have finally earned some good news heading into Week 5, as Darious Williams, their Super Bowl-winning cornerback who spent the last few seasons in Jacksonville, is officially set to make his return against the Green Bay Packers. […]

With Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp currently out of action with a PCL Sprain and an ankle injury, respectively, the Los Angeles Rams have had to get creative with their offensive skills players. On one hand, a near-constant shuffling of players across the roster has made it hard for the Rams to find any cohesion […]

In Week 4, the Los Angeles Rams were dealt a difficult defeat at the hands of the Chicago Bears, 24-18. A late fourth-quarter Matthew Stafford interception, a second-quarter fumble, and a missed field goal just before the half ultimately proved costly. But the Rams didn’t have to rely on a series of flukes to stay […]

With Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua out for the past few weeks alongside, well, about a dozen other quality players, Sean McVay, and the Los Angeles Rams have been afforded extra chances to examine young players largely thrust into action out of necessity. One such player who has impressed McVay is none other than Jordan […]

After going to overtime in a game they should have lost in Week 1, losing a game they should have won in Week 2, and winning a game they should have lost in Week 3, trying to predict what would happen for the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4 was a borderline fool’s errand. Maybe […]

Despite being under consistent pressure for much of the Los Angeles Rams’ Week 4 battle against the Chicago Bears, Matthew Stafford still had a chance to secure a win on the final drive of the game, down just six with a little over a minute to go. Starting the drive at their own eight-yard line, […]

After securing their first win of the 2024 NFL season, Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams are taking their show on the road to Chicago to face off against one of the most popular players to sling a pigskin for USC in decades, Caleb Williams. A premier passer with Heisman pedigree and an incredible […]

After spending the majority of his adult life coaching in the NFL, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay has seen plenty of exciting young players, from the rise of Aaron Donald to Jalen Ramsey’s elevation from elite prospect to legitimate Defensive Player of the Year candidate on the way to a Super Bowl win.
