The Los Angeles Rams are set to enter the 2026 offseason in which they will have $40.8 million in effective cap space. That’s the eighth-most in the NFL and should give them a good starting point. However, if the Rams are going to bring in a big free agent or two, sign players to extensions, […]

I don’t buy the link below because the headline is pretty wild by saying that Malik Willis will get a $71 million contract, but also because I don’t think the Rams would be interested in Malik Willis, but I do think Willis will have a market. Maybe the Rams would be interested in having him […]

The Los Angeles Rams will have a new offensive coordinator in 2026 as Mike LaFleur was named the head coach of the Arizona Cardinals.

The Arizona Cardinals have reportedly requested to interview the assistant head coach of the Los Angeles Rams, Aubrey Pleasant, for their open defensive coordinator position. With the Cardinals just hiring Mike LaFleur from L.A. as their head coach, it’s pretty easy to speculate that LaFleur has a genuine interest in recruiting Pleasant, and it’s not […]

Only one team in the NFL went all 17 games without scoring at least 28 points this season: The Arizona Cardinals. Even the Jets, Browns, Raiders, and Titans all had at least one game with 28 points, but the Cardinals didn’t top 27 in any single game this year and that’s despite a high-priced quarterback […]

With the Los Angeles Rams having been so close to the prize in the past two seasons, there should be remaining confidence that the window is still open for another deep run. For 2026, the Rams have the nucleus of their roster returning, two Round 1 draft picks, and a good amount of spending cash […]

The Los Angeles Rams were quick to hire a new special teams coordinator at the end of the season. After firing Chase Blackburn following a Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, the Rams promoted Ben Kotwica and brought in Matthew Harper to assist for the rest of the season. Despite some special teams improvement, […]

Alright, we are less than a week away from the Super Bowl, but the Los Angeles Rams aren’t it, so we need to find stuff to talk about and so today I am asking did the Rams get their special team coach right with Bubba Ventrone? This is all speculation right now as we won’t […]

Most around the NFL expect the Los Angeles Rams to extend star receiver Puka Nacua this offseason. While that is certainly a major priority for the team, we also cannot forget about interior defensive lineman Kobie Turner. Turner also deserved a big-time pay day and should be a building block of this LA roster for […]

Last offseason, there were rumors abound on what would happen with Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams, and it’s looking like this offseason will bring more of the same until Stafford officially opts in (or doesn’t) with the Rams. During that 2025 offseason, teams like the New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders reportedly […]

The Seahawks-Patriots Super Bowl matchup on Sunday will be the 10th rematch in the 60-year history of the big game. Both teams have a combined seven championships between them, including the Pats’ record-tying six Lombardi Trophies.

Sean McVay’s coaching tree with the Rams has a wide reach, but one name that never comes up in those conversations is Thomas Brown. Although Brown actually has head coaching experience already (he was Bears interim head coach in 2024), his rise through the ranks since being an offensive assistant for McVay from 2020-2022 has […]

Over the second half of the 2025 season, the Los Angeles Rams defense took a lot of criticism, with a lot of that landing on defensive coordinator Chris Shula. However, while the defense, and specifically the secondary, ended up being the downfall of the Rams’ season, Shula won’t be going anywhere. After interviewing for multiple […]

Matthew Stafford is not the first important veteran starting quarterback to put his team in limbo at the end of every season in his twilight years as he contemplates retirement or a change of scenery, he’s just the latest. There’s nothing interesting to say about Stafford’s future until he announces a real decision; speculation by […]

There have been a number of changes made across the NFL with regard to head coaches, and general managers, but one of the teams that will be keeping their duo together is the Los Angeles Rams as they extended both Sean McVay and Les Snead. Anyone not happy with the extensions? I am going to […]

If the Rams decide to keep Xavier Smith as the punt returner and WR #5, it won’t be difficult. As an Exclusive Rights Free Agent, for all intents and purposes, he’s tied to the Rams unless they want to dismiss him. Smith hasn’t been bad in L.A., actually a decent value, but he’s never really […]

Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay have had a successful five-year run together on the L.A. Rams, but the newly-extended head coach doesn’t know if the quarterback will return to the team this year to make it six. While talking to the media on Monday and the team announcing extensions for McVay and general manager Les […]

Last week, I wrote about 5 Los Angeles Rams players that exceeded expectations in 2025. But just as every story as “feel good” moments, there is also typically hardship and misfortune. Sometimes, a player does not make the 53 man roster out of training camp. Maybe a player suffers a season-ending injury. Or maybe a […]

And then later this afternoon, it was announced that the San Francisco 49ers hired Raheem Morris to be their next defensive coordinator. Raheem […]

The season for the Los Angeles Rams is in the rearview, and so writers, talkers and everyone are looking back at the season at a large level, and coming away with takes such as who were the “studs and duds” for the 2025 season? According to a link below, and likely according to many, Kyren […]

According to reports, the Arizona Cardinals have zeroed in on Mike LaFleur as the franchise’s next head coach. LaFleur spent the last few seasons as the non-playcalling offensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams. Both of LA’s coordinators, including DC Chris Shula, drew head coaching attention this offseason in addition to pass game coordinator Nate […]
