Last night sucked.
Seasons like this are rare. Matthew Stafford was playing at a MVP-level. Puka Nacua had an OPOY-caliber season. Davante Adams showed flashes of his all-pro level.
This very likely could have been the Rams’ final best shot with Matthew Stafford. "Run it back" isn't guaranteed.

I really think today is about going pass heavy and running the ball as an extension of the offense.
Get in 11P and utilize the misdirection/smoke and mirrors. On 2nd-and-longs/3rd-downs, get in empty and spread that defense out. Make them declare and play on your terms.

Big key for the Rams today will be finishing the job.
Play 60 minutes.
In quarters 1-3, the Rams have outscored the Seahawks 37-26 and had a 0.12 EPA to Seattle's -0.31.
During the first three quarters of each game, Darnold has -0.48 EPA/db.

I still can't get over this throw.
This is MVP level.
Had a 28.8% completion probability per NextGen stats.
Far hash to far sideline vs. one of the longest CBs in the NFL. That's how you thread the needle.

I feel oddly confident about the Rams game today.
Anxious, but confident.
If the Rams ride Kyren Williams and Blake Corum, Matthew Stafford plays an efficient game, and the defense does enough, they will win.

The Bears are apparently considering a MAJOR shakeup on the offensive line via the Chicago Tribune.
No Ozzy Trapilo leaves ??? at LT. Assumption was Theo Benedet or maybe Braxton Jones in his place. It could be Joe Thuney who gave up 10 pressures at LT vs. CLE last year with KC.

The Bears have been the third-worst team defending under-center play action this season.
Matthew Stafford from under center play action?
144/214 for 1,735 yards, 24 TDs, 1 INT with a 127.4 rtg.

Both Rams RBs play a role in the offense, but Blake Corum could be the x-factor in the run game.
The Bears allow the 6th-highest explosive run rate in the NFL on defense. Since Week 7, Corum ranks sixth in the NFL in explosive run rate (min. 100 carries).

I think it's one thing to underrate the Rams pass defense.
It makes no sense to underrate the Rams run defense.
They had a few slips over the last 8 weeks. But even since Week 14 (last 6), they are 6th in rushing success rate allowed.

Not sure what Elon did to the algorithm, but seems as if it's been purposely set up to create division/conflict and therefore a toxic environment. Just not a good experience right now.

The Rams drafting TE Terrance Ferguson feels like a long time coming.
The Rams ranked 4th in EPA/pass out of 12 personnel last season. If you think Sean McVay isn’t cooking up something…you haven’t been paying attention.

A way-too-early look at QBs the Rams could target with their extra 2026 first-round pick:
🔹 Arch Manning
🔹 LaNorris Sellers
🔹 Drew Allar
🔹 Fernando Mendoza
🔹 Nico Iamaleava
This class could define the post-Stafford era in LA.

There is going to be a lot of focus on Arch Manning to the Rams for obvious reasons.
...however, he's only started 2 games and both Peyton/Eli played for four years. May not even come out in '26.
I'm much more intrigued by LaNorris Sellers at QB post-Stafford. Even like upside of Drew Allar.

It probably won’t line up with '23 or '24, but added some solid pieces. Love Ferguson, Hunter, Paul, and Mumpfield.

Jarquez Hunter has been a popular player that I have mocked for the Rams. Made my final mock draft and included him in my Day 3 mock this morning.
Brings 4.4 speed and only behind RJ Harvey in career explosive run rate. 33% of his runs b/2 the tackles went for 10+ yards.

Terrance Ferguson made my Snead's Snacks list as an honorable mention.
Was one of my winners among tight ends at The Combine. He tested really well. Showed out in Mobile at the Senior Bowl. Think he's going to be a great fit in the Rams offense.
