Jared Verse today: 6 pressures, 1 forced fumble. Leads all rookies with 11 TFL so far this season.

DROY campaign is still progressing in the right direction

Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigue
Sloppy game for the Rams offense for many, many reasons – but Kyren Williams has really brought it. Running so hard when he does get the opportunity.

Los Angeles Rams PR@TheLARamsPR
WR Puka Nacua (@AsapPuka) surpassed 2,000 career receiving yards in his 24th career game today. He tied Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase as the second-fastest players to reach 2000 receiving yards since the 1970 merger. Odell Beckham Jr accomplished the feat in 21 games.

Look at that spiral. 😮‍💨

A huge defensive stop by Rams D to get the football back to the offense.

Not at all overlooking the 2018 NFC CG, but the Rams have won a *regular season* game in New Orleans for the first time since Week 10, 2007.

FINAL: 21-14 to get back to .500 at 6-6

Rams Bros.@RamsBrothers
The Rams did a lot offensively in the 2nd half to deal with their pass pro issues.
• They stuck to the run game (both Kyren and Corum averaged over 5 YPC)
• Well designed pass plays off play action
• Screens, screens, screens

All adjustments from what we saw in the 1st half

roberto clemente@rclemente2121
the rams rank #31 in first half offensive scoring headed into wk13, only the rudderless browns have scored less, after today the rams may rank dead last.

comparatively the rams have scored just 8 offensive tds in the first half this season, the lions have scored 27

Stu Jackson@StuJRams
Per FOX broadcast, this the first time the Rams have been shut out in the first half of a regular season game since December 11, 2016 vs. Falcons

1. Rams didn’t get runover.
2. Rams held in red zone
3. Saints couldn’t get explosives

1. Rams ran well enough
2. finally figured out Saints cover-1 Defense
3. didn’t turn over the ball

I’ll take giving up 140 yards rushing if it means opponents cannot get explosive plays

Rams are 4-2 vs. Saints under Sean McVay

Dating back to 2017, the Rams have faced the Saints six times, including that unforgettable (and controversial) NFC Championship Game in the 2018 playoffs. The Rams are 4-2 in those contests, winning three of their last four against New Orleans. They took down the Saints at home last year, 30-22, behind an offensive output of 458 yards.

The Rams spent the week fixing mistakes and moving forward, Shula said.

“I call it just, ‘Stick your face in the fan and get corrected what needs to get corrected”

Here are part of Sean McVay’s lengthy comments today on former Rams RBs/TEs and asst. head coach Thomas Brown, who he also played against in high school. Brown became the Bears’ interim HC today: pic.twitter.com/tTvYGscqkU

I dunno how they come back after a game like that Eagle game. I mean that was just an outright Alice’s Restaurant Massacre. A physical humiliation. A beat-down.

I got the impression that as the Eagles game wore on and the D was getting challenged physically, they began to “press”–get undisciplined trying to make plays. If you listen to the analysis from Rodrigue and others, they made mistakes and abandoned their gap discipline, which of course made things worse. Or, I guess, even worse. It was a regression because since the bye they had been tighter when it comes to that.

We’ll see how much they learned from that and if learning from it can improve them this year. But you can learn from that. IMO? No one who is competitive enough to play in the NFL just “quits” because of a loss.

Heck the 2021 Rams suffered an embarassing 31-10 loss against the 9ers in week 10, allowing 156 yards rushing while getting just 52 on their side, and throwing 2 INTs including a pick 6. That Rams team as you know won the super bowl. So they came back from that game. I doubt the super bowl is on the horizon this year but they can learn from a bad loss and come back better.

A second consecutive DNP for left tackle Alaric Jackson (foot). McVay’s next updates are Friday.

Tyler Higbee is back at practice and got some individual reps with Stetson Bennett, who has picked up any and all extra arm work during practice and before games for Rams this year while Stafford and backup Jimmy G work with the first team and scout team, respectively.

Rams LT Alaric Jackson did not practice today with a foot injury.

Rams kicker Joshua Karty has missed 5 FGs this season. Notice a trend with these kicks? Three of them came from the left hash. Context for his misses:

– One bad hold (@ CHI)
– One bad miss (vs. LVR)
– THREE misses from the left hash (vs. MIA, @ NE, vs. PHI)
