Don’t forget about Kamren Kinchens
Kamren Kinchens is getting lost in the shuffle amid the Los Angeles Rams’ defensive additions this offseason. While the secondary should be significantly better with Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson in the fold, Kinchens is one of football’s best young safeties. According to Pro Football Focus (PFF) grading and metrics, Kinchens finished as the eighth-highest […]
Rams repeating old mistakes with Harrison Mevis
Harrison Mevis is a good kicker, which is all the Los Angeles Rams were looking for when the team decided to release former sixth round pick Joshua Karty midway through the season. When a team’s kicking situation gets so bad that they feel compelled to fire the kicker in November, the bar isn’t set very […]
Bears, Seahawks among NFC regression candidates in 2026
The Los Angeles Rams’ path to NFC supremacy is opening up quite nicely, as several teams are expected to regress in 2026. From the Bears’ unsustainable late-game magic to the Seahawks’ loss of key personnel in free agency, things are setting up for the Rams to take control of the conference, assuming L.A. doesn’t join […]
Breaking down the Rams’ success based on TV broadcast windows
No entity or organization in our society can make something mundane feel like a massive deal quite like the NFL can. In related news, the full 2026 schedule will be revealed on Thursday. We already have a few hints about what the slate will look like for the Los Angeles Rams this year. Notably, we […]
We may never know why Sean McVay was ‘grumpy’ on draft night
Whether intentional, unintentional or something in between, when Sean McVay appeared grumpy during the Los Angeles Rams press conference on the same night L.A. selected Ty Simpson as the 13th overall pick, it was McVay’s appearance and reaction that became the story as much as the selection. Was McVay upset about the Simpson pick? Was […]
L.A. Rams News: It’s May, but their schedule looks tough
A lot can change, and strength of schedule isn’t always the best indicator of how a team’s NFL season will go, but in May, and as it stands, the Los Angeles Rams look to have a tough schedule. Starting with L.A. residing in the NFC West, plus they’ll play some other top teams in the […]
One advanced metric ranks the Rams roster best in the NFL
It’s not breaking news when you hear that a major publication thinks the Los Angeles Rams will be very good again in 2026. After all, they were arguably the best team in the NFL for much of the 2025 season, and more than a few fans and analysts considered the NFC Championship Game to be […]
Rams fan reverse Q&A: Who is the most underrated Ram?
The Rams franchise has many of the best football players in the history of the sport, including Aaron Donald, Kurt Warner, and Merlin Olsen. The Rams have had their ups and downs and moved several times over, but through it all they’ve also produced some of the most underrated and unappreciated players the league has […]
Ty Simpson could make Stetson Bennett a trade chip
Ty Simpson’s place on the L.A. Rams depth chart could make Stetson Bennett one of the more intriguing trade chips in the NFL backup quarterback market in training camp. Around the league, teams have struggled to find competent depth behind their starting quarterbacks, increasing the value of someone like Bennett in comparison. If Bennett is […]
Acknowledging an unheralded but very important contributor for Rams
Tyler Davis is a promising third-year breakout candidate on the defensive line for the Los Angeles Rams. He’s one of the most well-rounded interior players for LA and is a sure-handed tackler. While Davis is a lesser known name by fans, his role grew notably last season. He’s potentially in store for even more playing […]
L.A. Rams News: Trades can still happen
The NFL Draft is over, but there are still plenty of ways for teams to improve either through free agency or trades, and apparently there is some speculation (by some) that the Los Angeles Rams are expected to make a trade as they look to win the Super Bowl. With 2027 expected to be such […]
Bug or Feature: Whether Rams can fix their missed tackle problem
I’ve written often about the Los Angeles Rams’ tackling woes over the past year. What at first glanced seemed like a late-season blip now appears to be a more troubling multi-year trend for several of LA’s core defensive building blocks. Poor tackling may be a feature rather than a late-season bug. Background content on the […]
Puka Nacua could pass Justin Jefferson for NFL record
Rams receiver Puka Nacua needs 1,709 receiving yards next season to pass Justin Jefferson for the most ever through a player’s first four seasons. If Nacua stays healthy and out of trouble, he’s already proven that he’s capable of doing that: Nacua had 1,715 receiving yards last season. In doing so, Nacua passed Randy Moss […]
Rams UDFA Payton Zdroik is Air Force One (technique)
Life as a college student-athlete is challenging enough. Throw on the responsibility of being an Air Force cadet and the difficulty is ratcheted up magnitudes higher. Only 12 players who graduated from the Air Force Academy have ever played a game in the NFL (not including several players who transferred out during their college careers). […]
RAMalytics: Same position, vastly different players
The Los Angeles Rams’ selection of tight end Max Klare was met with some head scratching last month. On the surface, it seems rich for LA to spend its first pick in each of the last two drafts on the same position—especially one generally viewed as lower value. However, even though Klare and Terrance Ferguson […]
Can these two UDFAs make an impact for the Rams in 2026?
While the Los Angeles Rams made free agency a priority in upgrading the 2026 defense, they did not invest much draft capital to that end. Of 12 rookie additions to the defensive side of the ball, 11 were undrafted free agents (UDFA) and the only draftee was Round 7 nose tackle Tim Keenan. The final […]
RAMalytics: How 7th rounder Tim Keenan fits with Rams
The Los Angeles Rams have enjoyed success selecting defensive linemen late in the draft. Is 2026 seventh rounder Tim Keenan from Alabama the next in line? Keenan could be the next late selection to defy the odds. It’s not difficult to see his path to playing time in Los Angeles. While the Rams have not […]
Rob Havenstein reveals a top compliment he and Rams o-line ever got
The newly retired Rob Havenstein was on Bleav in Rams with Erin Coscarelli and Brian Baldinger when Havenstein recalled an opposing player who expressed after a contest that L.A.’s line “all played well together”. Havenstein went on to reflect it was one of the best compliments he and his fellow Los Angeles Rams offensive lineman […]
Despite Simpson, Stafford playing more years could be good for Rams
I’ll concede Matthew Stafford playing through Ty Simpson’s rookie deal may be less than ideal…there’s also the chance that Stafford continues to be the best option for the Rams as they go forward. Stafford earns every year he starts Sean McVay has shown a willingness to move on from players who aren’t performing, that includes […]
L.A. Rams News: Players are available
Yesterday I wrote about Kenny Moore being available to the Los Angeles Rams, and more players are available today. Months from now, more players available. You cannot make this up. Anyone you want to see join the Rams? Just wait because more players will be possible. Or name a player and post them in the […]
NFL 2026 schedule release next week
The NFL will release the 2026 schedule next Thursday, March 14th. One game is known for sure already: The Los Angeles Rams open against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday, September 10th in Melbourne, Australia. We will know the rest of their games in less than a week. “The league already has announced that the […]
NFL, referees reach new 7-year deal
The NFL avoided a major offseason distraction today after the league and the NFL Referees Association agreed to a new seven-year collective bargaining agreement that secures labor peace through the 2032 season. The deal ensures that veteran officiating crews will remain in place and eliminates concerns about a possible referee lockout before the 2026 campaign […]
NFL comparisons for each Rams rookie
Every NFL draft season brings excitement, optimism, and one tradition that football fans cannot resist — rookie comparisons. From Hall of Fame projections to stylistic similarities, analysts and fans spend months searching for the perfect NFL counterpart for incoming prospects. The Los Angeles Rams grabbed five prospects in the 2026 draft and fans are dying […]
Fact or fiction: Trent McDuffie’s best position is inside
Before turning heads at the NFL draft by taking quarterback Ty Simpson with the 13th-overall pick, the Los Angeles Rams made one of the biggest moves of the offseason in early March, sending the 29th-overall pick to the Kansas City Chiefs for cornerback Trent McDuffie. The TST staff has already broken down a lot about […]
L.A. Rams News: Kenny Moore is available
NFL teams are constantly trimming rosters and a recent player released was Kenny Moore of the Indianapolis Colts. He’s had some strong years if my memory is correct, but the Colts likely didn’t think his value was matching his play, so they cut him. Now, other teams can make a move for player, who knows? […]
