Kelly Stafford is begging Los Angeles Rams fans to avoid letting opposing fans pack SoFi Stadium for their first-round playoff game the way the San Francisco 49ers faithful did in the regular season finale.  Niners fans turned the Rams’ home stadium into their own during Week 18, filling the stands with red and forcing Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, Kelly’s husband, into a silent count. Jimmy Garoppolo had no such issues despite being the visiting quarterback.  “It was crazy. Again, I’ve… Source link

Things got testy early in Sunday’s game between the Los Angeles Rams and Baltimore Ravens. And the Ravens weren’t involved.  As Rams defenders broke their huddle during Baltimore’s opening possession, a scuffle ensued. Cornerback Jalen Ramsey shoved safety Taylor Rapp in the facemask, and teammates had to separate them.  It’s unclear what set Ramsey and Rapp off. The teammates have played in the Rams secondary together since 2019. These things happen between teammates, but rarely during games… Source link

To this point, the NFL has shown it isn’t like the NBA, where a super team can join forces and produce championships. Much of that, of course, is simple numbers: There are only five players per team at a time on a basketball court and they play offense and defense. This year’s Los Angeles Rams are trying to show it can be done in the NFL, adding Matthew Stafford, Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr. to a roster that already included Aaron Donald, Jalen Ramsey and MVP candidate Cooper Kupp. The Source link

As COVID-19 surged through the NFL this week and forced the rescheduling of three games, multiple sources involved in talks between the league office and NFL Players Association told Yahoo Sports that three teams were on the verge of having to forfeit Week 15: The Cleveland Browns, Los Angeles Rams and Washington Football Team. It was a staggering reality that began to sink in for the league and players union by Thursday, pushing the two sides into a rescheduling negotiation that the NFL was… Source link

In 2020, we had to consider a lot more than football before making any picks.  Last year it became foolish to make any bets early in the week, not knowing which players would be out by Sunday due to COVID-19. Figuring out who would be in or out was more important than any other factor.  Through the first 14 weeks of this season, there were some cases of players missing games on the COVID-19 list, but nothing like last season. This week seems like 2020.  There were outbreaks for multiple NFL… Source link

Two bad plays from Kyler Murray. That’s all it took to change the Arizona Cardinals’ footing in the NFC, and maybe the NFC West too.  That’s why the NFL is so hard. The Cardinals had the league’s best record until Monday night kicked off. Then the Cardinals lost 30-23 to the Los Angeles Rams — and had a chance to at least tie after a late onside kick recovery, but Aaron Donald ended the game with a sack — and will wake up Tuesday as the No. 3 seed in the NFC.  That’s three months of… Source link

The jury’s still out on whether Odell Beckham Jr. is the answer the Los Angeles Rams need. But four games in, the move from Cleveland to Los Angeles sure looks like a win for Beckham. The Rams receiver lined up as a starter for Monday’s NFC West showdown against the the Arizona Cardinals. He scored the game’s first touchdown on a red-zone slant from Matthew Stafford en route to a six-catch, 77-yard effort in a 30-23 Rams win. The score marked Beckham’s third straight game with a touchdown… Source link

The Los Angeles Rams are going to go through the entire month of November without a win.  That’s a little misleading because the Rams had a bye this month, but it was still a lost month for a team that did not expect to drop many games this season.  We’re two-thirds of the way through the season, and it’s time to wonder what the Rams really are. They’re 7-4, two games behind the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West and the Cardinals already won at Los Angeles. After a three-game losing streak,… Source link

Aaron Donald never assaulted the man who alleged he severely beat him, the Los Angeles Rams star’s lawyer claimed Friday morning. Casey White, the attorney Donald hired to represent him, made his first public comments in an interview with Pittsburgh radio station 93.7 The Fan. White told the station that DeVincent Spriggs instigated last weekend’s confrontation and that Donald went from being restrained by friends to actually coming to Spriggs’ rescue. “He goes to the pile where this… Source link

The NFL has yet to confirm the exact amount for the 2021 salary cap, but every team will have to be under the limit by March 17 regardless. For teams like the Rams, that could prove difficult considering they’re currently about $35 million over the cap. Cap casualties and restructures will be necessary in the next week or so, but the expectation is that Andrew Whitworth won’t be one of the players cut to save money. Whitworth has said all offseason that he plans to be back, and that… Source link
