3 free agent options to replace Alaric Jackson
Although we don’t know all the details and certainly not the outcome of the charges against A.J. Jackson, the Rams have to prepare for the possibility of a lengthy suspension. Here are three starting-caliber free agents that could fit the bill. Cam Robinson Drafted 34th overall in the 2017 draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars, Robinson […]
Tournament of Rampions: Who gets the edge?
Braden Fiske may have started his college career with Jared Verse, but he will continue his Rams career with Byron Young. The third-year defensive end had a perfect start to his NFL career in 2024, totaling 8.5 sacks and finishing third in Defensive Rookie of the Year voting behind Verse and Quinyon Mitchell. It’s exactly […]
A.J. Jackson won’t be charged with a felony
Rams offensive tackle Alaric Jackson will not face felony charges for his recent arrest, according to the Los Angeles County Distract Attorney’s Office, but he could still face criminal charges and be suspended by the NFL. Having been suspended for two games in 2024 under the league’s personal conduct policy, Jackson’s second incident in as […]
Can you build the perfect Rams running back
The Rams have had one of the richest histories at running back in NFL history. Power backs. Home-run hitters. Elite receiving threats. Violent finishers. Patient zone runners. No single back had absolutely everything—but if you combine the best traits across generations, you may end up with the greatest running back ever created. We want to […]
Lingering questions: Goodbye, 11 personnel?
Nearly everyone expected the Los Angeles Rams and Sean McVay to add another receiver this offseason behind Puka Nacua and late-career Davante Adams. Materially speaking, they did not. That’s not to say that LA didn’t have a chance to add another starting-level receiver. They instead opted not to. The Rams could have targeted a mid-tier […]
Can you go 20-0? Assemble your Rams football legends
Over the last several months, “20-0” has become one of the most popular trivia and roster-building games among football fans. The concept is simple: build the perfect team by selecting players who fit specific categories, requirements, or clues. The challenge comes from finding the right answers without repeating selections and proving your football knowledge along […]
Rams can’t afford to overlook 49ers in Super Bowl chase
Since trading for Myles Garrett earlier this month, the Los Angeles Rams have been the talk of the NFL offseason. However, the Rams’ hated rival, the San Francisco 49ers, are being somewhat overlooked, which could potentially threaten L.A.’s Super Bowl hopes in 2026. It’s easy to overlook the Whiners right now, as they were the […]
L.A. Rams News: Are they the top offense in June?
Take it with a grain of salt in June, but the great Rich Eisen states that the Los Angeles Rams have the top offense heading into the 2026 season. Do you agree with that? I think whereas it’s fair to give the Rams the top spot, it’s only June. Now, do the Rams have all […]
Lingering questions: How will Rams deploy new CB Trent McDuffie?
It’s no secret that I was skeptical of the Los Angeles Rams trading for Trent McDuffie in the days before the move was reported. On this very site I penned a post titled “McDuffie is a slot merchant and doesn’t make sense for Rams”. I came around to the move when the Rams continued their […]
Which Rams’ Kam is the most important safety?
The Los Angeles Rams built a secondary that doesn’t just play similarly, they have almost the same names. Safeties Kam Curl and Kam Kinchens both came to the team in 2024, one through free agency and the other through the draft, and both have made a significant mark on the defense. Who is more important […]
Is Colby Parkinson or Tyler Higbee more important?
The Los Angeles Rams have several positions in which the depth chart and the starter could change frequently through the next six months. Perhaps none more obvious than tight end, where at least five names seem worthy of making the roster, and a couple more would like to push for a spot in training camp. […]
Get ready to see a lot of Stetson Bennett in training camp
Matthew Stafford missed the entirety of training camp and multiple ensuing weeks of practice last season and then went on to win the NFL’s MVP award and lead his team to the NFC Championship game. The Los Angeles Rams seem to be drawing one conclusion from last year’s back injury scare: Stafford does not need […]
Rams must exercise caution with cap restructure potential
The Los Angeles Rams enter the 2026 offseason in an enviable financial position. According to OverTheCap, the Rams possess the seventh-best salary cap restructure potential in the NFL, with approximately $62.7 million available through contract restructures. On the surface, that kind of flexibility appears to provide general manager Les Snead with plenty of options to […]
Build your perfect Rams quarterback
The Los Angeles Rams have been blessed with some of the most talented quarterbacks in NFL history. From big-armed gunslingers to surgical passers and clutch postseason heroes, every era has featured a quarterback who excelled in a particular area. But what if you could combine the best traits from multiple Rams signal-callers and build the […]
L.A. Rams News: Training camp is coming
The Los Angeles Rams completed their organized team activities when Sean McVay dimissed the team earlier than expected. Training camp will be next. We’re already halfway through June as we continue to hurl our way towards another NFL season. Training camp should be something to look forward to, but for me, I just want to […]
Jared Verse not done with Seahawks rivalry
Jared Verse’s final words to his former Rams teammates? “Beat the Seahawks.” In an interview with Browns media last week, Verse said that his last message after he was traded to Cleveland was that he wanted his old teammates to beat Seattle at every opportunity. You can trade the man out of the rivalry, but […]
Puka Nacua probably won’t break Calvin Johnson’s record
Pro Football Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson heaped the praise on Los Angeles Rams receiver Puka Nacua this week, believing the star wideout could break his single-season receiving record. While the praise is completely warranted, Nacua is unlikely to break Johnson’s mark. Johnson made the proclamation during an interview with Dave Birkett of the Detroit […]
Tournament of Rampions: Who is the most important?
Which player’s availability is the most important to the success of the 2026 Los Angeles Rams? What about second-most? Who would make the top-five? The winner may seem obvious, but the journey towards revealing that player in a tournament could be the most enlightening experience yet for fans curious to find out what other fans […]
Rams linebackers under a microscope in 2026
Going into the 2025 season, there was a was clear mandate that the Rams needed to clean up their run defense. The unit was coming off a bottom 10 season in 2024 where they were giving up 130 yards per game at a 4.6 yards per carry clip. While not all on the linebacker corps, […]
Lingering questions: Myles Garrett trade signals schematic shift
Casual observers will look at the landscape of the Los Angeles Rams’ defense after gaining Myles Garrett and trading away Jared Verse and ask, “how much better did they actually get?” The changes to the Rams’ defensive schemes under Chris Shula on the front with Garrett will be substantial. The team is also signaling a […]
L.A. Rams News: You want to see them take the chance?
Let’s concede the Los Angeles Rams cannot actually draft Brendan Sorsby in the upcoming NFL Supplemental Draft, and forget about that and instead ask: Would you want the Rams to take a chance on Sorsby? Would this all even be as a big a news story if Sorsby wasn’t an interesting quarterback prospect? That being […]
Lingering questions: The disconnect between Stafford and Ferguson
The Los Angeles Rams dramatically improved over the offseason after earning a trip to the NFC Championship game last year. It’s encouraging to see a team on the brink make blockbuster moves in hopes of reaching the Super Bowl. But there are some marginal improvements that do not require corresponding moves. One of those this […]
Who is the most important Rams non-starter?
On both offense and defense, the Los Angeles Rams have a starting lineup as talented as any in the NFL. Offensively, we’ve already seen what Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua can do with Sean McVay’s playbook, ranking as the top offense in 2025. Defensively, Myles Garrett, Trent McDuffie, and Jaylen Watson are added into a […]
Rams could have never really drafted Brendan Sorsby
Now that Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby has declared for the NFL’s Supplemental Draft, some Rams fans may be wondering if it would have been smarter to wait for him, rather than use the 13th overall pick on Ty Simpson. But based on what picks the Rams have next year, that never would have really […]
L.A. Rams News: Myles Garrett has the ‘smart’ trait
Myles Garrett has all the physical traits and skills to be a dominant force in the NFL, but he’s got the smarts to go along with the physicality. According to Albert Breer (you can read about it below) the Los Angeles Rams felt they had to have Garrett when they considered how smart a player […]
