    from PFF: https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-week-13-recap-los-angeles-rams-21-new-orleans-saints-14

    LA’s run game was terrific, posting 0.318 EPA per play, averaging 5.4 net yards per rush and amassing six explosive runs. The Rams also played well defensively, winning on 53.7% of pass-rushing snaps and holding the Saints to a 33% third-down conversion rate.

    PLAYER OF THE GAME

    Speights put together a strong all-around game in the Rams’ victory. The rookie notched five tackles and three stops on run defense. In coverage, Speights allowed four catches for only nine yards, recording an interception.

    Rams Bros.@RamsBrothers
    Is it wrong to be excited about the final 5 game stretch of the season with these things in mind?
    • Finally, a fully healthy offensive line
    • Run-first approach, better RZ execution
    • Tyler Higbee playing his first game of the year
    • Emmanuel Forbes being claimed off waivers

    He’s a legend and I’ll love him forever but Cooper Kupp looks extra slow this year, I’m concerned he’s injured and trying to play through it again..and we know how that ends.

    Rams QB Matthew Stafford suffered a lateral ankle sprain against Saints but it is not expected to affect his ability to prepare for Bills, McVay said.

    This is likely Kupp’s final season with the Rams, which makes WR a priority for the next draft. WR, Oline, CB, K, ILB…

    Agree with all that. I would add TE as a high priority as well.

    From Next Gen Stats: Jared Verse generated a team-high 7 pressures. No other Rams defender generated more than 2 pressures in the game.

    Verse has now generated 58 total pressures and 4.5 sacks this season, tied for the third-most in the NFL and most of any rookie.

    #Rams IDL Kobie Turner is leading all interior defensive lineman in stops on the season. He’s been huge in year two and I don’t think that gets talked about enough.

    The league.

    In terms of DL generally not just DTs, he’s 2nd. Again, in the league.

    from 3 rookies headline defense versus Saints–Omar Speights, Jared Verse, and Kamren Kinchens were the three-highest graded Rams defendershttps://www.turfshowtimes.com/2024/12/2/24311113/rams-saints-pff-grades-jared-verse-omar-speights

    1 – Omar Speights, MLB: 94.1
    Most impressive was Speights’ coverage grade of 92.4. He allowed four receptions on five targets for just nine yards and recorded a pass breakup that easily could have been an interception. The rookie UDFA was a monster against the run and notched seven run stops.

    Speights brought a physicality to the middle of the defense that has been missing at times this season.

    2 – Jared Verse, OLB: 89.6
    Verse led LA with six pressures. The defense finished with 14 in this game. The rookie phenom was also tied for second in run stops with three, those pale in comparison to Speights’ total.

    3 – Kamren Kinchens, DB: 81.4
    Kinchens brought some big hits from the secondary. He’s an opportunistic defender and is always looking to either make a play on the ball or bring a crushing hit.

    The rookie safety was targeted three times, allowing three completions for only 10 yards and a passer rating of 80.6.

    Who stood out in New Orleans according to Pro Football Focus (PFF)? Let’s take a look at their game grades.

    1 – Kevin Dotson, RG: 90.9
    Dotson seems to be the highest-graded player on the Rams offense week in and week out. The veteran didn’t allow a pressure in this game, and he’s on a three-game streak of not allowing a pressure that dates all the way back to Week 11 versus the New England Patriots.

    2 – Puka Nacua, WR: 83.7
    The second-year receiver led LA in yardage and scored one of their two passing touchdowns. Nacua finished with five catches on eight targets for 56 yards.

    His average depth of target (ADOT) was just 5.5 yards in this game. The touchdown came on a screen pass, and 44 of his 56 yards came after the catch point. That measure alone would rank second in receiving this week behind only Demarcus Robinson at 49 yards.

    3 – Matthew Stafford, QB: 83.4
    Stafford finished with two big-time throws and kept the ball out of harm’s way with no turnover-worthy plays. He completed 14 of 24 passes for 183 yards and two scores. PFF credited Rams receivers with a drop, and tracked one hit as thrown with two throwaways. That brings Stafford’s adjusted completion percentage to 71.4%, up dramatically from his raw rate of 58.3%.

    The second half was well-called by Sean McVay. Both of LA’s touchdowns can be attributed to scheme, as well as the offense’s longest pass of the game to Robinson.
