The Serviceable Starter

The Los Angeles Rams head into the bye week with two absolutely miserable primetime performances back to back. The latest beatdown was given at the hands of Head Coach Kyle Shanahan of the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. The Niners came out and simply outmuscled and outcoached the Rams in every way imaginable. From the Rams very first offensive drive, a deep ball from Matthew Stafford to new wideout Odell Beckham Jr. would be intercepted by Jimmie Ward. It was really all downhill from there. The Rams defense played hard in the game against the Titans the week prior, that toughness was lost on this team on Monday. Kyle Shanahan's gameplan was run the ball and oh boy did they run it all over the defense with great efficiency. Deebo Samuel had an all-world performance both in the air and on the ground.  An absolutely brutal game through and through for Los Angeles as Stafford would throw his second pick-six in as many weeks. After running the ball 40+ times and showing t...

Yet another star of the NFL makes his way to Los Angeles in hopes of aiding a Super Bowl run.  Odell Beckham Jr. was released by the Cleveland Browns on November 8th following posts made by his father on social media in regards to his usage in the Browns offense. A few days before being waived, OBJ was excused from Browns practice and that ultimately led to his release. Ultimately that didn't help Beckham's case for finding a new team as he would tread the free agent waters for a few days. With as young and talented as he is, it isn't a good look. After ongoing rumors of possibly being signed by the New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs, New Orleans Saints or Green Bay Packers, just moments after a Sean McVay press conference, it was announced on November 11th by Adam Schefter that OBJ would in fact become a Ram. He joins an absolute stacked and thriving wide receiver room in L.A. with the likes of Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods and Van Jefferson. The wideout signed a one yea...

Quarterback Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams weren't exempt from accomplishing a major set back on a NFL Sunday full of them.  Sunday Night Football brought the AFC South leading Tennessee Titans into SoFi Stadium for a primetime matchup in which they wouldn't even have their best offensive player suited up. Along with that, the hype for recently acquired outside linebacker Von Miller would rest during this game as well on an ankle injury sustained a few weeks ago when he was a Denver Bronco. He will look to make his first start in the horns on Monday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers. Stafford had his worst game as a Ram on Sunday night. He would throw two uncharacteristic interceptions, one of them being a pick six by Titans All-Pro safety Kevin Byard. He had done a fantastic job at protecting the ball leading up to the Titans game and all puns intended, he dropped the ball on Sunday night. The QB would be sacked five times, in the midst of a season wher...

It's Miller time! Week 9 brings quarterback Ryan Tannehill and a question mark of an offense to Inglewood as the Titans take on the Rams under the primetime lights on Sunday Night Football. This game and storyline is a stage that SoFi Stadium was built for. It's an interconference game between two franchises that once competed in Atlanta in Super Bowl XXXIV. A game that has gone down as the Rams one and only Super Bowl win. Titans' All-Pro running back Eddie George played in that Super Bowl and that's the glaring difference between then and now. The Titans' All-Universe running back Derrick Henry will be out for this game to begin his 6-10 week stint on the injured reserve due to a foot injury. It's a blow to the NFL as a brand to have such a talent like Henry out, let alone the Tennessee Titans. In Henry's spot will be veteran back and 2010 NFL All-Decade Team player Adrian Peterson, who was a free agent just a week ago. The Rams defense surely understands ...

It was nothing but smooth sails and quick work for the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, Halloween in Houston, Texas.  The Rams improved to 7-1 with a controlling and dominant win over the Houston Texans. It was a win that would come as no surprise to those who are familiar with both teams and the trajectory of their respective seasons.  Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford continues to push himself to the front of the NFL Most Valuable Player race exiting week eight with a very stout performance. Stafford went 21 for 32 for 305 yards and 3 touchdowns against the abysmal Houston defense that simply had no answers for the Rams offensive attack.  Aiding that attack was the run game, provided by running back Darrell Henderson. Henderson racked up numbers that have been par for the course for him so far this season. Possessing a bulk of the workload, Hendo had 90 yards on 14 carries and a touchdown, as well as a receiving touchdown which would cap a very solid fantasy day for Henderso...
