    Matthew Stafford’s 139.2 passer rating vs. blitz is highest of any QB in playoffs this century

    Rams’ 8 different players with at least a half-sack is most in NFL playoff history

    No Rams CB ever had a sack in the playoffs before Monday night

    Tyler Higbee now has most receiving yards by Rams TE in playoff history

    Also, one of the worst gameplans in NFL history. By the Vikings head coach.

    He failed to adjust. That’s for sure.

    It’s nice to see McVay schooling bright head coaches like Belicheck did to him in the Super Bowl.

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2025/01/17/jared-verse-eagles-fans-hate-saquon-barkley-response/?taid=678acbeaea12d90001b3fe66&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

    Jared Verse has generated a ton of buzz around the NFL for his outstanding rookie campaign, but he made headlines for a very different reason on Friday. In an interview with the LA Times, Verse flat-out said he hates Eagles fans.

    “I hate Eagles fans,” Verse said. “They’re so annoying. I hate Eagles fans.”

    It’d be one thing to say that during the offseason, but calling out a rowdy fanbase like the Eagles’ just days before a playoff game may not be the most advisable move. Eagles running back Saquon Barkley sure doesn’t think it was a good idea.

    Jared Verse said he woke up to a blitz of social media reaction to his comments re Eagles fans.

    Verse [said] he would be disciplined Sunday, stay on his assignments and contribute to a Rams defense that must control running back Saquon Barkley if coach Sean McVay’s team is to avenge its 37-20 defeat to the Eagles and advance to the NFC championship game.

    In November, Barkley amassed 302 total yards against the Rams, including 255 rushing, and scored on runs of 72 and 70 yards. The Rams were out of position to make tackles and also missed Barkley multiple times.

    Verse acknowledged his role in the debacle. Several times, he said, opportunities to limit Barkley to a short gain went awry and resulted in long runs because he tried to do too much.

    “I just didn’t take advantage of them,” he said. “I left my feet.”

    What are they gonna do?

    Make noise when the Rams’ defense is on the field?

    Oh no.

    Since Week 7, the Rams defense has allowed a passer rating of 84.5. That’s the 4th-best in the NFL.

    Their 12 INTs over that period is also the 3rd-most.

    They’ve allowed 5.28 adjusted net yards per attempt which ranks 4th.

    Odd statistic. I guess this will hold unless we beat the Eagles and then play the Lions again. (Unless the Commanders beat the Lions).

    Weird Fact: Sean McVay will coach his 13th playoff game as head coach of the Rams this weekend. All 13 games have been against different opponents.

    Opponent -Date
    Atlanta Falcons January 6, 2018
    Dallas Cowboys January 12, 2019
    New Orleans Saints January 20, 2019
    New England Patriots February 3, 2019
    Seattle Seahawks January 9, 2021
    Green Bay Packers January 16, 2021
    Arizona Cardinals January 17, 2022
    Tampa Bay Buccaneers January 23, 2022
    San Francisco 49ers January 30, 2022
    Cincinnati Bengals February 13, 2022
    Detroit Lions January 6, 2024
    Minnesota Vikings January 13, 2025
    Philadelphia Eagles January 19, 2025

    So he only needs to face the Commanders, Giants, Panthers, and Bears to play every NFC team besides the Rams in the playoffs.

    19 appearances is pretty impressive when you consider that for the better part of two decades during the Super Bowl era the Rams were among the worst teams in football.

    Yeah, the Rams are either good, or terrible.

    They don’t do mediocrity.
