The Rams defense has recorded 12.0 sacks this season, tied with the Broncos for the most in the NFL. It’s the most sacks for the Rams through three games of a season since 2015 (13) and the third-most through three games in the last 30 years (14 in 1998).

Daniel Jones has looked really good in the first three weeks and has the Colts sitting at 3-0. Sean McVay and Matthew Stafford each talked about Jones' turnaround and they shared similar thoughts entering Sunday's game. https://t.co/EDXw127Ag8

In 2025 Rams shown they can stop the run.
Also, in 2025, they do 3rd and long well

Colts run well …
Colts, IMO, don’t do 3rd and long well.

Rams IOL (with injuries) not match for Colts IDL

Quentin Lake has been dominant in zone coverage out of the nickel this year.

He is going to get a massive payday this off-season. pic.twitter.com/m2dTad44j4

This was just the Rams’ second loss after leading by at least 19 points since 1984. One of the worst losses of the Sean McVay era.

today, stafford on 3rd down:
1 of 7 for 8 yards, 1 sack, 1st down

from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/rams/2025/09/22/rams-pff-grades-beaux-limmer-justin-dedich/86292476007/?taid=68d16f0ee04ccb000171641d&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

Part of the reason for the Rams’ struggles was the pass protection, which was lacking throughout the contest. In fact, Pro Football Focus even gave Rams offensive linemen Justin Dedich (35 pass-blocking snaps) and Beaux Limmer (five pass-blocking snaps) their worst possible grade, a 0.0.

Another squib by Karty causes a bobble on the return and pins the Eagles inside the 15. They have now started every single drive off a Rams score at or inside the 20.

ME: if you don’t know about the Rams new (and very successful) kickoff strategy, I describe it here: https://theramshuddle.com/topic/rams-kickoffs/

That Cowherd vid is pretty good at summing up what happened.

One lesson: don’t give McVay the 2nd round pick. He will take a skill player they don’t need. Atwell, Ferguson. They needed a corner or a center, these guys are right.

J.B. Long@JB_Long
With his 2nd TD today, Matthew Stafford has passed Matt Ryan for 9th-most in NFL history (382).

1. This was a battle of two of the NFC’s three best. Classic fight with momentum swings. Two teams with different strengths but similar builds, spending all on offense to be creative on defense.

2. Crazy game of runs — 26-0 for both. Just a classic game where the championship mettle and home crowd let the Eagles finish but the Rams’ talent shined a lot.

3. Most impressive? Holding Saquon Barkley to 2.6 yards a carry. Poona Ford and Nate Landman making a real difference.

4. We’ll see how sustainable the run ‘D’ is with Jonathan Taylor, Christian McCaffrey and Derrick Henry up next. Eagles run game hasn’t taken off overall yet.

5. Jared Verse, Byron Young and Josiah Stewart will give burly OTs hell all season. Rams pass rush up there with any.

6. The CB issues are real. Just some physical limitations to Darious Williams (speed) and Emmanuel Forbes Jr. (size). I think the Rams need a trade or to sign Stephon Gilmore because the tests will keep coming.

7. Josh Karty should have been the hero. Amazing game from him.

8. Matthew Stafford was off. Just a reminder of life with a 37-year-old pocket passer. And why the Rams need a complete puzzle.

9. Steve Avila coming back solves a lot. The Rams haven’t had a game yet with both guards and about 1/3 of the games without either.

10. Gotta feel great about the run game in spite of the guard injuries. Kyren Williams and Blake Corum are a fun tandem that can wear teams down and marry play-action concepts in a beautiful way. But they gotta be crisp in the red zone/short-yardage without the QB run threat.
