Matthew Stafford might play longer than you think

Matthew Stafford might play longer than you think

This offseason, there was less speculation about Matthew Stafford’s future and retirement timeline than in previous years, and that could become more of a trend than an outlier despite him being the second-oldest expected starter in the NFL at age 38. Rams fans could be looking forward to at least four more years of Stafford being the oldest starting quarterback in the league.

The reasons for him playing until he’s 40 and beyond are growing faster than the grey hairs in his beard.

Retirement is a personal decision and could have nothing to do with an ability to play football...

Rams’ SoFi Stadium set Super Bowl standard; who’s next?

Rams’ SoFi Stadium set Super Bowl standard; who’s next?

Just a few years after SoFi Stadium reset expectations for Super Bowl hosting, the NFL appears ready to hand its biggest event to Nashville for the first time ever. League owners are expected to vote this week on awarding Super Bowl LXIV to Nashville, which would make “Music City” the host of the championship game in February 2030. Reports indicate the vote is expected to take place during the NFL’s Spring League Meetings in Orlando, with approval widely viewed as a formality.

The Rams hosted the Super Bowl at SoFi Stadium for the first time ever in 2022, allowing for...

Can Matthew Stafford dodge the post-MVP aging QB decline?

Can Matthew Stafford dodge the post-MVP aging QB decline?

In February, Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford became the oldest signal caller at age 37 to win MVP for the first time. Stafford will not only be working against the clock in the 2026 season, but also against a history of QBs in their late 30s this century who have declined after winning MVP.

The Rams’ QB is tied for the third-oldest player to have ever won the award. Since 2000, only three other quarterbacks age 37 or older have won MVP:

Each of these signal callers experienced a decline — only some were more noticeable than others.

L.A. Rams News: Stefon Diggs an option?

L.A. Rams News: Stefon Diggs an option?

I don’t think anyone is saying that Stefon Diggs will sign with the Los Angeles Rams, but it is a possibility. At this stage, Diggs is likely weighing his options with regard to who will pay him, and which team gives Diggs the best chance at winning a Super Bowl?

Diggs has still shown he has the ability to help a team, but the Rams already have Puka Nacua and Davantae Adams, so Diggs fit may be a little tough, Of course, is Diggs accepts that some weeks he’ll thrive, while during others he’d be a third or fourth option,...

‘The most daunting schedule I’ve ever seen’

‘The most daunting schedule I’ve ever seen’

Vincent Bonsignore, who used to cover the Los Angeles Rams as a beat writer and now cover the Las Vegas Raiders, authored a piece in the NY Post this week that explains how LA is facing “the most daunting schedule I’ve ever seen”.

While Bonsignore no longer covers the Rams, he was intimately familiar with how LA’s front office operates and applies a broader context with his overall NFL understanding. When Bonsignore speaks on the Rams, fans should listen. The Rams’ schedule will either test them as eventual champions or expose them for premature offseason hype:

The Rams Are About to Spend the Holidays in Prime Time

The Rams Are About to Spend the Holidays in Prime Time

Is there a better way to celebrate the family, food, and thankfulness of Thanksgiving week than with your favorite football team? Is there a better way to celebrate the joy and togetherness of Christmas than with your favorite football team?

Rams fans are about to find out.

The NFL has made it clear that it’s hell-bent on dominating our television sets as much as possible during the holidays (and every day of the week, but that’s a story for another post). This year, Los Angeles gets to play on both of the biggest late-calendar holidays, territory that is relatively unfamiliar...

Rams schedule comes with a toll

Rams schedule comes with a toll

The 2026 season will test the endurance of the Los Angeles Rams long before the playoffs begin. Between coast-to-coast road trips, divisional battles in hostile environments, and an international opener in Melbourne, Australia, the Rams are expected to travel roughly 34,847 miles during the regular season — the second-most in the NFL.

Los Angeles will leave SoFi Stadium for challenging away matchups against the Denver Broncos, Philadelphia Eagles, Las Vegas Raiders, Washington Commanders, Seattle Seahawks, and all three NFC West rivals throughout the year. The biggest headline, however, is the Rams opening the season overseas against the San Francisco 49ers...

Rams should look to fortify offensive line depth

Rams should look to fortify offensive line depth

The Los Angeles Rams have spent the last several seasons rebuilding and reshaping their roster around a younger core, but one of the organization’s most underrated strengths during the Sean McVay era has been its ability to identify offensive line talent and revive careers. As the Rams continue preparing for another playoff push, further fortifying the offensive line depth could become one of the most important priorities heading into the season.

While the Rams already possess a strong foundation up front, adding another proven veteran such as James Daniels could represent the type of frugal investment that pays massive dividends...

Rams roster: What’s their draft pedigree?

Rams roster: What’s their draft pedigree?

As OTAs advance, reports from many football pundits have rated the Los Angeles Rams as having one the NFL’s best overall rosters for the 2026 season. L.A. did do a good job of plugging holes in free agency and while the draft didn’t go the route many felt it should, all five draftees have the upside to be contributors with seasoning. General Manager Les Snead may not yet be done, with $25.7mil spending cash in his pocket.

Since the union of Snead and Head coach Sean McVay, the Rams have consistently put together top-tier rosters and coached them up to...

The most compelling storylines from Rams 2026 schedule

The 2026 slate of games was finalized this week for the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are in the league’s full spotlight with seven primetime games, but the real story is whether the schedule helps launch a contender—or exposes one.

What are the most compelling storylines from LA’s 2026 slate? Let’s preview some of the angles that will turn into headlines later in the year.

Did NFL hand Rams an early edge over 49ers?

The San Francisco 49ers upset the Rams at home on Thursday Night Football last season in part thanks to a high energy environment that favored...

Rams ready for OTA team workouts

Rams ready for OTA team workouts

With the Los Angeles Rams a month into their voluntary offseason training activities (OTAs), things are beginning to heat up at the Woodland Hills training facility. L.A. is ready to take to the field en masse for Phase 3 of spring workouts, organized offense/defense work, on May 26. The rookie mini-camp (May 8-10) just finished up, so the yearlings now join the field with vets, who have been in-house since April 20, for limited individual/positional work.

OTAs are broken into three phases over a nine-week period, according to Article 21 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement here’s how it breaks down:...

L.A. Rams News: Holy primetime games, Batman

I don’t know who Batman is, but if I did, I think someone named Robin would say to Batman, “Holy primetime games, Batman. The Los Angeles Rams have a lot of ‘em.”

I should work in Hollywood with dialogue that good, but I don’t make the rules.

Yes, the L.A. Rams do have a lot of primetimes games ahead of them, and that means many people will be able to lay their eyes on them. If the Rams can handle the pressure, it will be impressive. If the Rams are losing games, it will be the talk of the NFL...
