    Can we replicate the recipe of our playoff pass rush? Yes. Before we played the Vikes in the playoffs the Lions dominated them the week before. They did a lot of Dline stunts and twists that were very effective. I think Shula saw that, and then after we pillaged the Vikes for NINE sacks, he became very aware that our young Dline guys aren’t all that big, but are the very quickest one in the league. Then, we became aware of using our greatest advantage of quickness and that worked very well (seven sacks) against the Eagles huge oline, rather than trying to play in their style which got us beaten in the first game with them. From now on, I believe we’ve found our style and stride upfront in our very young D!!

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2025/02/13/rams-tackling-nfl-grades-stats-2024-season/?taid=67ae7982bbd52000018d3683&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

    Next Gen Stats ranked every team based on their tackling grade and the Rams checked in at No. 15 with a score of 79.1 (C+) – a respectable spot, especially considering how poor the tackling was early in the year. In tackling efficiency, the Rams went from 26th in the first 10 weeks to eighth in the final eight weeks, which helped them climb to No. 15 overall.

    Through the first 10 weeks of the season, the Rams ranked 26th in the NFL in tackle efficiency, while no healthy starter posted a missed tackle rate below 9.5% and the team had a win-loss record of 4-5. In the last eight weeks of the regular season, they ranked eighth in tackle efficiency while finishing with a 6-2 record, then converted 70 of 74 tackle opportunities in their Wild Card Round win over the Vikings. From Week 11 through the playoffs, seven starters (Christian Rozeboom, Omar Speights, Quentin Lake, Kamren Kinchens, Kamren Curl, Darious Williams, Bobby Brown) recorded a missed tackle rate of 8.8% or lower.

    Jared Verse is one player who improved dramatically as the season went on. Missed tackles were a huge problem for him early in the year, missing 11 tackles in the first four games alone – which, in turn, cost him a handful of sacks, too. In the final 15 games, however, he missed just 10 tackles, according to Pro Football Focus.

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2025/02/14/rams-cowboys-sean-mcvay-micah-parsons-credit-deserves/?taid=67af4c785ff3900001babd89&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

    Micah Parsons doesn’t think [McVay] gets the credit he deserves. He feels like McVay is left out of conversations about the NFL’s top coaches, which isn’t necessarily wrong when you consider how rarely he’s finished near the top in Coach of the Year voting.

    “I don’t think Sean McVay gets the credit he deserves,” Parsons said. “You talk about a team that they went all-in. They had Odell (Beckham Jr.), Von Miller, Leonard Floyd, Jalen Ramsey. You look at that Super Bowl team, they were pretty much stacked. They went all-in, they traded everything away. After that year, they kind of said, ‘We’re in rebuild mode’ but he was like, ‘No, I’m not in rebuild.’ And you look at that defense, bro, besides their Defensive Rookie of the Year that they just drafted this year, you can’t name too many superstar talents.”

    Stafford was really stiff-arming Fred Warner with cracked ribs, and then proceeded to play the rest of the entire season without mentioning one word about it…

    from PFF 101: The top 101 players from the 2024 NFL season — https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-pff-101-the-top-101-players-from-the-2024-nfl-season?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=dhtwitter&utm_content=null

    29. WR Puka Nacua, Los Angeles Rams
    Nacua finished the 2024 season with the NFL’s highest receiving grade (92.6), leading the league in both yards per route run (3.23) — well ahead of the next closest qualifier (2.86) — and threat percentage (35.6%). He would have been a lock for the top 10 on this list if he had maintained that production over a full season. However, with just 350 receiving snaps — less than half of the league leader—his limited workload pushes him slightly further down the rankings.

    27. EDGE Jared Verse, Los Angeles Rams
    As PFF’s Defensive Rookie of the Year, Verse rightfully earns his place on this list ahead of some more established names at the position. While many top edge rushers unleash their explosiveness primarily on passing downs, Verse’s relentless motor shows up on every snap. He finished in the top 10 among edge defenders in both pass-rush grade (85.5) and run-defense grade (81.0), proving his all-around impact.

    The #Rams have given permission to G Jonah Jackson to seek a trade, per @JFowlerESPN. LA signed the former Lions Pro Bowler to a 3-year, $51M contract last offseason.

    That;s just money. They have Limmer at center so they don’t need Jackson. So as it turns out J.Jackson was an ill-conceived FA signing similar to Allen Robinson in 2022–the receiver they ended up letting go cause he never fit in (after having traded away Woods cause they signed him).

    Sometimes these guys improvise and it means they’re open to unexpected possibilities. Like trading for Ramsey during the season…even though they already had Talib and Peters. Sometimes though it leads to ill-advised FA signings like A.Robinson and J.Jackson.
