    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!!

    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.”
