Everyone has their listings of where J.J. Watt will play in 2021. The Pittsburgh Steelers and Green Bay Packers are easy teams to pad such a list. However, there is one team that would wreak havoc across NFL trenches if they could land the former Houston Texans defensive end. In NFL.com writer Nick Shook’s list of teams that could be the next home for Watt, the Los Angeles Rams were mentioned as a possibility. This one is probably more fantasy than anything, but that won’t stop Rams fans… Source link

The Telegraph Golf’s governing bodies take steps to tackle game’s distance problem Golf’s leading authorities signalled their intention to rescue the future of the sport from the big hitters on Tuesday by unveiling proposals to rein in the likes of Bryson DeChambeau and Rory McIlroy. The game’s two governing bodies, the R&A and the US Golf Association, have paved the way for restrictions on equipment including limits on the length of drivers and the introduction of a standardised,… Source link

For weeks, the deeply flawed crown jewels of the 2016 NFL draft’s quarterbacks class presented the league with a pressing question about resolving a massive error. As the Philadelphia Eagles pondered the future of Carson Wentz and the Los Angeles Rams considered swapping out Jared Goff, onlooking NFL teams were mulling an issue that overarched both franchises. Sure, you might find a trade partner willing to reboot the careers of Goff or Wentz, but what could convince a trade partner to eat… Source link

If the best defense in the NFL can’t contain the Green Bay Packers, it’s hard to believe anyone else has much of a chance. The Packers used every club in the bag on Saturday. They ran it with ease right at the Rams behind a great offensive line performance. They went with fast tempo, which seemed to put the Rams on their heels. There were countless formations and motions. And when the Packers needed Aaron Rodgers, he looked every bit the MVP of the NFL. It was a reputation-making… Source link

Quarterback Jared Goff will start his first game since Week 16 on Saturday when the Los Angeles Rams take on the Green Bay Packers in the divisional round of the NFC playoffs. Head coach Sean McVay made the announcement Thursday, and also announced that quarterback John Wolford will be inactive. Goff didn’t start the Rams’ past two games after getting surgery on the thumb of his throwing hand. Wolford, his backup, started in his place in Week 17 and against the Seattle Seahawks during… Source link

A few weeks into the season, Russell Wilson looked like he’d go wire-to-wire in the MVP race. By the end of the season, nobody could know what to expect from the Seattle Seahawks’ passing game in the playoffs. Wilson and the Seahawks take on the Los Angeles Rams in a wild-card matchup on Saturday afternoon, a game that can be live-streamed on the Yahoo Sports app. The Rams have quarterback issues. Jared Goff will be less than two weeks removed from thumb surgery. If he can’t go, John… Source link

This weekend will be unlike any other in NFL history. In 1982, there was a 16-team playoff field due to the strike-shortened season. But the NFL was many years from putting playoff games in prime time. The eight games on the first weekend of the 1982 postseason all happened at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. The NFL is making sure you will get nothing done this weekend. For the first time there will be two tripleheaders of playoff football, one Saturday and one Sunday. It’ll be roughly nine hours of… Source link

Sunday was a reminder that the NFL is different than other sports leagues. The same four teams aren’t going to rule the sport year after year like it’s the College Football Playoff. The worst team in the NFL can go on the road and beat a strong contender. The New York Jets weren’t just a bad team, they looked like one of the worst teams ever. They beat the Los Angeles Rams, and now everyone will forget the 2020 Jets, like we do with all 1-15 teams (sure, the Jets could win another, but… Source link

On the heels of Santa Clara County forcing the San Francisco 49ers out of Levi’s Stadium with new COVID-19 restrictions, the NFL has had communications with both of its Los Angeles franchises about safeguarding against a forced move to alternative playing sites in the coming weeks, two league sources told Yahoo Sports. The sources said the steps being taken by the Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams include troubleshooting potential practice and stadium sites outside the state of… Source link

Maybe there’s something to the jokes about Tom Brady playing past his bedtime, after all. Brady struggled again in prime time. His interception to Los Angeles Rams safety Jordan Fuller in the final two minutes, on a deep pass that wasn’t close to intended receiver Cameron Brate, sealed the 27-24 win for the Rams. The Buccaneers are 1-3 in prime time this season, with only an unimpressive close win over the New York Giants saving them from being winless. Brady started well, but late at… Source link
