Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 1/20/25

To my knowledge the last time the Los Angeles Rams beat the Philadelphia Eagles Doug Pederson was the head coach. Since Nick Sirianni became the head coach of Philly, L.A. has not defeated the Eagles once.

Sean McVay lost to Sirianni again this past Sunday and it’s not an indictment on McVay. It’s just the way it is. The Rams had a great season, but the Eagles are having a better one.

I know it’s hard for the Rams and their fans to process the defeat, but the Rams had a great...

Rams QB Matthew Stafford says he has football left in him, but won’t commit to any 2025 plans

The Rams have Matthew Stafford under contract for two more years, but the quarterback told reporters after L.A.’s 28-22 loss to the Eagles on Sunday that he would “take some time to think about” his future in the NFL before committing to anything in 2025. That doesn’t mean that Stafford doesn’t think he can play anymore.

When asked if he has football “left” in him, Stafford responded, “Sure feels like it”.

Stafford went 26-of-44 for 324 yards, two touchdowns, five sacks, and...

L.A.’s leading man processed some of what this loss means when he spoke to the media after the final whistle

Sean McVay gave plenty of credit to the Philadelphia Eagles who defeated the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Divisional Playoff Round, but he also expressed his own “shock” as the Rams season officially came to an end.

The head coach reflected on being “bummed out that this journey is over.”

“I think I’m up here pretty shocked because I know a lot of people didn’t believe we could come in here, but we have the full expectation to...

Kyren Williams and Beaux Limmer in the doghouse as 2025 offseason beings

This divisional round matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles had the makings of a modern classic. Two perennial playoff contenders battling the snowy winter elements in a game that went down to the final moments.

Unfortunately for the Rams, the outcome will go down on the wrong side of their franchise history. The Eagles finished on top 28-22. LA had the ball in the red zone until a Matthew Stafford pass intended for Puka Nacua sailed out of bounds on fourth down.

The result brings...

Demarcus Robinson played lights out on Sunday, will the Rams keep him as a free agent?

The 2024 season ended for the L.A. Rams on Sunday, losing 28-22 in the snow to the Eagles, which means that Les Snead’s job to get the team deeper in the playoffs next year has already started.

With a projected $46 million in cap space, how many of their own free agents will the Rams bring back on new deals and how many will L.A. allow to leave in free agency?

The Los Angeles Rams should be proud of their season, but the loss is a heartbreaker

The Los Angeles Rams put up a heck of a fight against the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL Divisional Round before falling by a final score of 28-22. L.A. kept it close through the majority of the game, but in the final quarter it was the Rams who made the costlier mistakes with two turnovers. The Eagles capitalized on those mistakes, and won the game.

The first half was a back-and-forth affair. The Eagles scored first, but the Rams were not deterred as they...

The Los Angeles Rams are trailing at the half, but they still have two quarters to flip the script

The Los Angeles Rams trail the Philadelphia Eagles by a score of 13-10 after the first half. L.A. has been keeping the contest close. They also have been outcoached and outplayed by a thin margin, but it’s been enough a gap to say the Eagles had the better first half.

The Eagles struck first with a touchdown, but after a missed extra point they only led 6-0. The Rams then answered with a touchdown of their own, and they took the...

Jared Goff’s division loss brings back memories of why he he was traded

The chances of a rematch between the Rams and Lions was thwarted on Saturday when Detroit lost to the Commanders. The game was highlighted by the complete opposite nights of the two quarterbacks, Jared Goff and Jayden Daniels.

With the Lions now losing their last two playoff games and Goff being a central reason to their disappointing finish by throwing three interceptions, the Rams and Matthew Stafford are receiving praise for the trade like it’s two years ago all over again.

Stafford will hope to improve his...

If the Rams beat the Eagles, they will be hosting the NFC Championship game

It turns out that you actually can go home again.

The Los Angeles Rams were forced to relocate away from SoFi Stadium in the first round of the playoffs, but if they can beat the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday then that’s exactly where L.A. will be playing in the NFC Championship game.

The Washington Commanders upset the Detroit Lions 45-31 in the divisional round on Saturday, meaning that the winner of Rams-Eagles will be hosting the Commanders in the NFC Championship. Not bad for a team...

John Streicher could be the incremental difference versus Eagles

Sean McVay made a key coaching hire after last year’s playoff loss to the Detroit Lions, and now it’s time to see if that decision will pay dividends for the Los Angeles Rams. They’ll need every advantage they can get this weekend against the Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional round of the postseason.

John Streicher, game management coordinator, was brought in to help McVay with clock management, fourth down decisions, and other areas to find a competitive edge over opponents. Before joining the Rams, he spent the previous six years with...
