[Atwell] has another week under the IR practice window before the Rams have to decide whether to activate him or lose him for the year.

.@RamsNFL @Panthers @tae15adams one qk peek at the CB and he knew exactly the release and route he would run. In Davante's mind; the corner can't be right!!! #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/TLbQ2NuZNU

I asked @CSimmsQB to diagnose the Eagles' problems. I mentioned the coaches. He did *not*. He went deep on why he thinks the issue is only Jalen Hurts.

"The blame deserves to be on the quarterback. That's it."

Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur on whether he’d like to call plays again, like he did with the Jets from 2021-2022:

Darren Urban@Cardschatter
Gannon: Kyler Murray will not return this year. Had some tests out of state, foot is not progressing.

Josh Weinfuss@joshweinfuss
Out for Cardinals against the Rams on Sunday:
– WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel)
– CB Max Melton (heel)
– WR Greg Dortch (chest)
– DB Dadrion Taylor-Demerson (ankle)

[McClendon]

If Sean McVay learned anything from the injury luck his Rams have had along the offensive line the past three seasons, it’s that depth is an absolute necessity at the position. It’s all well and good to have five good starters, but the chances that those are the only linemen you’ll need in a season are slim. You need to feel good about every lineman on the roster.

One of the exemplars of the Rams’ depth at the position has been reserve right tackle Warren McClendon Jr. With stalwart Rob Havenstein battling ankle and knee injuries throughout the year, McClendon has started five games for the Rams this season, including the past two.

After allowing three pressures in his first start, McClendon has allowed only one in the four games since, including a clean slate in Sunday’s loss to the Carolina Panthers.

“Warren continues to stack good performances,” McVay said. “The way that he’s worked has allowed him to be able to have good experiences when he’s playing in these real games.”

It’s a big growth for McClendon, who allowed four sacks and 14 pressures in six games in 2024. After missing training camp his rookie year with a knee injury, the Rams asked McClendon to play both left and right tackle last season. The result was a player who was a step slow as he tried to process everything in front of him.

This season, though, McClendon has largely focused on the right side, which was his natural position coming out of Georgia. He still reps on the left side at practice, just in case of emergency, but honing in one side of the line has helped slow things down for him.

“When you’re a swing tackle, you have to think about the plays and flip them when you go to the other side,” McClendon said. “Definitely calmer when I get out there. I know more, I know the playbook better than I did. So I’m confident in myself to know what I’m doing, my assignment.”

And the Rams’ confidence in him is at a high, too.

“I thought last year he took some strides, obviously got out there on the grass on Sundays and then as he played this year, he got better and better whether it be on the practice field and again, the experience that he’s gained on Sundays,” offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur said. “I have zero alarms in terms of him being out there because he’s played good football and I know the other 10 guys on the field feel the same way.”

There hasn’t been this much at stake in Packers-Bears since the 2013 regular season.

Couple that with the head coaches trading shots at each other this offseason and the NFL’s oldest rivalry feels like a rivalry again.

Kurt Warner@kurt13warner
I think what you are seeing this year is less “great” QB play & more parity which equals a lot of closer games… and these QBs are playing great when it matters, not great all the time!

For example Bo & Caleb have made game winning plays in 4th qtr and why their team is winning…

But when you have great QB play like Stafford & Maye, your team wins and looks like best team in league!

So yes QB play matters… it always will, but if you’re not playing great, you have to be great in the moments that matter most!

Asked Sean McVay if there’s a possibility Rams WR Tutu Atwell isn’t activated off IR at the end of his 21-day window: “We haven’t gone down that road yet. But there are some number things like we’ve talked about. It’s just been a unique set of circumstances”
