Davante Adams sees potential MVP for Matthew Stafford
Adams has spent most of his career as a teammate of Aaron Rodgers, who has won three MVP awards. Adams sees shades of Rodgers from those seasons in Matthew Stafford.
Byron Young named Rams’ surprise player
Young has 15.5 sacks in two seasons in the NFL. He gets overshadowed by last year’s Defensive rookie of the Year Jared Verse, but ESPN named Young the Rams’ most surprising player of the offseason.
The Rams’ red flag
The Rams are the favorite to win the NFC West again, but they are leaning on an aging quarterback in Stafford. His age and questions with the offensive line and its ability to protect him are seen as red flags for the Rams in 2025.

New LB fitting in
The Rams traded linebacker Ernest Jones last year and saw Christian Rozeboom leave in free agency. They signed former Atlanta Falcons linebacker Nathan Landman. So far, he has been a great fit.
Rams just a piece away from being really special
Hall of Fame running back Jerome Bettis talked about the Rams. He thinks they lack only an impact defensive back to be a “really, really special” team in 2025.
