Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Los Angeles Rams fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
The Cardinals are ready to see their other first round pick in action.
The Arizona Cardinals are finally getting a little help along the defensive line, something they have needed forever.
Darius Robinson has been activated from the injured reserve, there was no corresponding move needed as the Cardinals had already placed Dennis Gardeck on the injured reserve.
Robinson had to be activated by Wednesday, outside of that he would have been done for the season.
Nick Rallis talked expectations:
“I know this isn’t how (Darius) wanted to start his rookie season,” defensive coordinator Nick Rallis said. “I just...
With the trade deadline one week away, there are always a lot of rumors and speculation on moves that certain teams might make. That’s no different with the Los Angeles Rams especially when they have a general manager in Les Snead that has proven to be aggressive this time of year.
While it’s easy to speculate whether or not the Rams or any team would give up draft picks to make a move, there is the element of the salary cap that consistently gets lost in that discussion. Teams may want to make a trade, but simply not have the...
The 49ers rookie put on a performance in a big way on Sunday.
When the San Francisco 49ers selected wide receiver Ricky Pearsall in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, many assumed that it meant the team would move on from one of their top receivers in the near future, be it Deebo Samuel, Jauan Jennings, or Brandon Aiyuk.
Well, the team re-signed Jennings to a two-year deal. Then, they restructured Samuel’s contract, making it financially difficult to move off him before his deal ends after next season. And finally, they extended Aiyuk on a four-year, $120 million...
The Patriots hope former Rams pick Ochaun Mathis can replace Josh Uche
The Rams have done such a good job of drafting day three picks recently that even their failures could be another team’s wins. The Patriots signed Ochaun Mathis to the 53-man roster on Tuesday, 24 hours after trading Josh Uche to the Chiefs, and New England probably expects Mathis to be ready for a big role on the defense.
Like John Franklin-Myers before him, could Mathis become a valuable starter on another team despite not working out as a defensive lineman for the Rams?
The Rams picked Mathis...
We probably should’ve lost, but certainly not like that.
The first half of the 2024 NFL season has been a wild one for the Seattle Seahawks. For every high, there’s been a corresponding low, which has resulted in a perfectly equilibrious 4-4 record after eight weeks. Just a week removed from a dominant road win over the Atlanta Falcons, the Seahawks were embarrassed at home by the Buffalo Bills. It has seemed recently that popular football analysts across the country have started coming to an agreement that Seattle doesn’t have a great football team, but it doesn’t have a terrible...
The one thing a QB can’t do is give less than 100%
If there’s one lesson that every quarterback can take from the Colts benching Anthony Richardson after he “tapped out” for a breather on Sunday, it is this: You can play horrible football and keep your job, but you can’t show signs of being weak, out of shape, and unmotivated to play until your last breath and still keep your job.
There is constant talk about the Rams parting ways with Matthew Stafford by 2025 and that may be in best interest of both sides depending on how the...
The Seahawks rookies had an up-and-down day on an otherwise down performance against the Bills.
This was the Seattle Seahawks’ worst game of the year on both sides of the ball. Because of this, it also influenced the impact of the rookie class. With Nehemiah Pritchett out, the rookies’ total snaps dropped by almost half. From 209 against the Falcons, they went to 115 in the 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
Let’s take a look at how the rookies fared in Week 8, with all grades coming from PFF.
I believe,...
Our condolence’s go out to the Ward family
San Francisco 49ers cornerback Charvarius Ward suffered heartbreaking news and a tragic loss on Monday. ESPN’s Adam Schefter announced Charvarius and Monique Ward’s daughter, Amani Joy, passed away.
Here’s Ward’s message from his Instagram:
“We are heartbroken that our beautiful baby girl, Amani Joy, passed away on Monday morning. She was the best blessing we could have asked for, and her joyous spirit made us smile from ear to ear. She taught us to have patience, trust, and a positive outlook on life. She showed us true strength and bravery. She overcame...
Ryan Grubb has a big problem on his hands if the Seahawks cannot beat standard four man rushes.
The Seattle Seahawks have a hidden issue on offense that’s related to the offensive line, but not exclusively.
Remember how heavily Geno Smith would get blitzed at the start of the season? Vance Joseph’s Denver Broncos defense blitzed Geno on half of his dropbacks, and other than the bad start to the game, Smith generally handled it well. Smith shredded the New England Patriots, who blitzed him more than 35% of his dropbacks.
Well the blitzing has steadily dropped, and with it,...
The rollercoaster of the power rankings continues for the Niners
Heading into their bye week, the 49ers sit at 4-4. Depending on your perspective, this is either a win or loss through eight weeks. On the one hand, the 49ers have kicked away winnable games and limped into their bye week at .500. On the other hand, the 49ers are still in contention for the NFC West title with reinforcements on the way, and an experienced team that has been in this position before.
But is the NFL media convinced the 49ers will flip the switch? Let’s look around the...
The Carolina Panthers are likely to be sellers, and a rental at wide receiver isn’t the worst idea for the 49ers.
With Brandon Aiyuk down for the year after tearing his ACL, MCL, and meniscus, the San Francisco 49ers are a possible buyer in the wide receiver market.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked on Monday whether the team would address wide receiver at the deadline, given the injuries on the team:
“It’s not necessarily just try to address certain positions. You look at what’s available that you think can help your team get better. And if there’s anything out...
