Rams-Chiefs preseason Week 1 game thread

The Los Angeles Rams travel to take on the Kansas City Chiefs for some preseason Week 1 NFL action. This game will not be Matthew Stafford vs. Patrick Mahomes. That should come later in the regular season. This game will apparently feature some Stetson Bennett and Ty Simpson, so there’s a lot to watch for […]

Rams-Chiefs preseason: Keys to victory

The Los Angeles Rams will open their 2026 preseason schedule Saturday afternoon against the Kansas City Chiefs at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. The game is scheduled for August 15 at 4 p.m. ET, and with the Rams expected to keep their starters on the sideline, the focus will be less about the final score […]

Rookie pass catchers have major opportunity in preseason opener

If you’ve been waiting to see Max Klare and C.J. Daniels take the field for the Los Angeles Rams, your wait is finally almost over. With a slew of Rams expected to sit out the preseason opener against the Kansas City Chiefs Saturday, younger potential contributors will get a chance to shine. Klare and Daniels, […]

Ty Simpson is bothering Matthew Stafford, in all the right ways

The Los Angeles Rams will get their first look at rookie quarterback Ty Simpson in a preseason game on Saturday and the 13th overall pick will have plenty to prove against the Kansas City Chiefs. Not just to fans, not just to skeptics, and not just to coaches, but also to himself. He would also […]

Other rookie QBs are putting pressure on Ty Simpson before debut

The pressure is on Los Angeles Rams rookie quarterback Ty Simpson before he ever steps onto the field. Several notable first-year signal callers have seen the field this preseason and have played admirably, further putting the heat on Simpson ahead of his expected NFL debut Saturday. It all kicked off with Cardinals quarterback Carson Beck […]

What I’ll be watching for in the Rams opener

The wait is over, Los Angeles Rams football is back. Time to box up those preseason thoughts, all the hype, speculation, and over-reaction. Don’t discard them, just shake them up and repurpose them as post-preseason game analysis. Fortunes will rise and fall, but the stars won’t shine, this production will be left to the understudy’s. […]

Cowboys CB says facing Rams WRs in practice was ‘easy’

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Shavon Revel is not a household name, but after his comments about Puka Nacua and other L.A. Rams receivers this week, that could change overnight. Revel said that facing the Rams in a joint practice on Tuesday “felt easy”, an opinion not many would have expected from a cornerback who has played […]

Will Aaron Donald have more sacks than Braden Fiske?

The Los Angeles Rams are anxiously awaiting the impending return of Aaron Donald. Donald’s return to the Rams will undoubtedly form the greatest defensive line ever to touch the NFL grass. However, Donald’s return does raise questions about how Sean McVay and Chris Shula will get all of their chess pieces on the field…namely Braden […]

Will Aaron Donald make his decision on Friday?

It’s been rumored that Aaron Donald could maybe possibly perhaps announce that he is returning to the Los Angeles Rams as of Friday. By the time you are reading this maybe he already has, or maybe he hasn’t. Whether Donald returns or not, this should be a good Rams team. They should be able to […]

Chiefs have backup QB intrigue entering Rams matchup

Ahead of their preseason opener, the Los Angeles Rams’ backup quarterback situation appears relatively straightforward. Their opponent, the Kansas City Chiefs, appear to be in the same boat, but have a potentially intriguing battle at the No. 3 spot behind Patrick Mahomes and Justin Fields. As previously stated, the Rams’ backup quarterback battle behind Matthew […]

One advantage Stetson Bennett will have over Ty Simpson on Saturday

When the Los Angeles Rams travel to take on the Kansas City Chiefs Saturday, the most anticipated competition won’t be between the two teams on the field—it will be Stetson Bennett against Ty Simpson. Bennett has the upper hand as the starter in sultry Kansas City. He will enjoy a far superior supporting cast. Simpson […]

McVay to hand over play calling duties on Saturday

Sean McVay calls plays for the Los Angeles Rams and that isn’t likely to change in 2026, but the head coach is once again using the preseason as an opportunity to give play calling experience to the offensive coordinator. McVay officially announced on Thursday that new offensive coordinator Nate Scheelhaase will call plays against the […]

Rams’ rivals sign CB facing 8 felony charges

The Seattle Seahawks are expected to sign cornerback Terrion Arnold, a former first-round pick who was released by the Detroit Lions after he was charged with eight felonies related to an alleged armed robbery. The signing was first teased on HBO’s Hard Knocks on Tuesday, but ESPN’s Adam Schefter says that the deal is now […]

Will Nick Bosa be healthy enough for week one against the Rams?

Nick Bosa, star pass rusher of the San Francisco 49ers, has tendonitis in his right knee and his status for Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams is in doubt. Bosa, who has five sacks against the Rams in 10 career games, tore his ACL in 2025 and missed all but three contests. However, it […]

Stetson Bennett will start preseason opener for Rams

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay announced Thursday that Stetson Bennett will start Saturday in the preseason against the Kansas City Chiefs. Ty Simpson will also play. Bennett gets the first nod under center in a heated quarterback competition. Bennett and Simpson are competing for the backup job behind Matthew Stafford. The fact that […]

Matthew Stafford ranked 1st in 2 categories by Dan Orlovsky

Matthew Stafford has the best mechanics and ball placement of any quarterback in the NFL, according to his former Lions teammate Dan Orlovsky. In an article for ESPN, Orlovsky ranked quarterbacks by seven different traits that he considers to be important, and Stafford showed up four times in the top-4: Stafford did not place in […]

Puka Nacua really wants to stay with Rams

Puka Nacua has been stating throughout the offseason that he wants to stay with the Los Angeles Rams, and that desire has not appeared to change. During an appearance on the Impaulsive podcast that premiered on Wednesday, Nacua reaffirmed that he wants to stay with the Rams long term. Does L.A. want to pony up […]

Make 1 change to the Rams defense

The Los Angeles Rams have built one of the NFL’s more aggressive and versatile defenses under Sean McVay and defensive coordinator Chris Shula. The unit has the talent to make life difficult for opposing offenses, but there is always room for improvement. As the Rams prepare for another season with Super Bowl aspirations, perhaps the […]

The Rams probably regret cutting this preseason hero

There are several “what if” scenarios in recent Los Angeles Rams history that cut the fanbase to the bone. LA used a second-round pick on a gadget receiver in Tutu Atwell over an All-Pro interior lineman in Creed Humphrey. This spring they used the 13th overall selection on quarterback Ty Simpson rather than Makai Lemon, […]

Key takeaways from Rams first depth chart

On Wednesday afternoon, the Los Angeles Rams released their first depth chart ahead of the 2026 preseason and regular season. The depth chart always should be taken with a grain of salt considering teams are still conducting their evaluations ahead of preseason matchups. However, a depth chart can serve as a measuring stick and provide […]

Rams depth chart revealed ahead of first preseason game

The Los Angeles Rams have reached another important checkpoint of training camp, releasing their first unofficial depth chart ahead of the team’s opening preseason matchup. While the word “unofficial” is doing plenty of work here, the depth chart still provides an early glimpse into how the coaching staff currently views the roster and which players […]

Puka Nacua injury update

The Los Angeles Rams expect receiver Puka Nacua to be sidelined in practice over the next few days, according to ESPN’S Adam Schefter. Nacua left Tuesday’s joint practice against the Dallas Cowboys with what was later reported to be a groin injury, and the issue was and continues to be considered “minor”. Nacua has had […]

Make 1 change to the Rams offense before the season starts

The Los Angeles Rams enter the 2026 season with plenty of reasons to believe their offense can be one of the NFL’s best. Matthew Stafford remains at quarterback, Puka Nacua and Davante Adams give Sean McVay two proven weapons on the outside, and the backfield features one of the league’s more intriguing running back combinations […]

Bears’ Johnson admits he got out-coached by Sean McVay

The Los Angeles Rams were 3.5 point favorites to beat the Chicago Bears in the divisional round of the 2025 playoffs, but needed overtime to sneak past them and into the NFC Championship game.
