Link to story Rams | Rams survive to advance to NFC Championship Game Sun Jan 18, 10:12 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 20 of his 42 passes for 258 yards in a 20-17 overtime win over the Chicago Bears in the Divisional Round. RB Kyren Williams rushed for a team-high 87 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries and added four grabs four 30 yards. RB Blake Corum was held in check, finishing with six carries for 19 yards. WR Puka Nacua and TE Colby Parkinson tied for the team lead with 56 receiving yards. Parkinson caught three passes, and Nacua had five receptions to go along with two carries for six yards. Davante Adams was limited to two catches for 24 yards, and TE Tyler Higbee had just one catch for 27 yards. WR Jordan Whittington finished with two receptions for 35 yards. S Kamren Curl turned in a standout performance, logging a team-high 13 tackles, including seven solo stops, and an interception. LB Nathan Landman finished with 10 tackles, including five solo stops, and CB Cobie Durant had two tackles, three passes defensed and a pair of interceptions.
| Footballguys view: The Rams' offense -- a unit that led the league in offensive DVOA during the regular season -- struggled for much of their 20-17 divisional-round win against the Chicago Bears. Through three quarters, the Rams had 174 yards, their fewest of the season, according to ESPN Research. But the Rams' defense stepped up when they needed to most, with safety Kam Curl intercepting a Caleb Williams pass in overtime to give Los Angeles the ball back at their 22-yard line. While not a pretty game for the Rams, it was enough to send them to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since they won Super Bowl LVI during the 2021 season. Now get ready for Rams vs. Seahawks Part III. |

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (finger) fully participated in practice Friday, Jan. 16, and is not on the injury report for the Divisional Round playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Stafford picked up a sprained finger in last week's win, but he'll be a full go in a blustery road game against the Bears. His finger and the expected weather should temper expectations, but Stafford's multi-touchdown upside always makes him viable in fantasy. |

| Footballguys view: Ferguson missed the Wild Card Game against the Panthers, but he's trending to get out there on Sunday against the Bears. Having him on the field just gives Matthew Stafford another dangerous weapon in the passing game...and in the red zone. |

Los Angeles Rams TE Terrance Ferguson (hamstring) has a good chance to be available for the Divisional Round playoff game, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Ferguson missed the last two games with a hamstring injury that popped up on Friday before the finale against the Arizona Cardinals, but he's making progress, too. Ferguson's return would give the Rams even more talent and depth at an already rich position, with Tyler Higbee back and Colby Parkinson playing well. |
Rams | Kevin Dotson has chance to play in playoff game Mon Jan 12, 04:02 PM
Los Angeles Rams OG Kevin Dotson (ankle) did not play in the Wild Card playoff game, but head coach Sean McVay said he is optimistic that Dotson will be available for the Divisional Round playoff game.
| Footballguys view: Dotson has missed the last three games with an ankle injury suffered in the Rams' Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Justin Dedich has been filling in at right guard but Dotson is arguably the Rams' best offensive lineman when healthy. |
Rams | Ahkello Witherspoon going on injured reserve Mon Jan 12, 01:26 PM
Los Angeles Rams CB Ahkello Witherspoon (shoulder) will be placed on the Reserve/Injured list because of the shoulder injury he suffered during the Wild Card playoff game, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Witherspoon began the season as a starter for the Rams, but he has played only seven games in a secondary that has been repeatedly exposed as the defense's weakest link, with or without his presence. Cobie Durant moved into Witherspoon's starting spot after Week 2, and he kept the spot after Witherspoon's return. Durant had an early interception in the Rams' win at Carolina. The Rams play in Chicago on Sunday. |

Rams | Matthew Stafford good to go Mon Jan 12, 11:18 AM
Updating previous reports, Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (finger) suffered a sprained finger in the Wild Card Round but will be good to go for the Divisional Round, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Stafford had a finger on his right throwing hand bent backward late in the first half of Saturday's win over the Panthers, but he was still able to finish the game. According to USA Today, Stafford's biggest hurdle heading into this divisional game is the Chicago weather, where early forecasts call for a high of 16 degrees and a low of two degrees. The wind chill will make it feel closer to -8 degrees. We'll monitor the finger throughout the week. |

Rams | LAR moves on to Divisional Round Sat Jan 10, 07:40 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford went 24-for-42 for 304 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Carolina Panthers in the Wild Card playoff game. RB Kyren Williams rushed for 57 yards on 13 carries and also caught two passes for 18 yards and one touchdown. RB Blake Corum rushed for 45 yards on 11 carries and caught two passes for 13 yards. WR Puka Nacua caught 10 passes for 111 yards and one touchdown on 18 targets. WR Davante Adams caught five passes for 72 yards on 13 targets. TE Tyler Higbee caught two passes for 45 yards on three targets, while TE Colby Parkinson caught two passes for 34 yards and one touchdown on three targets. S Kamren Curl recorded five solo tackles and 10 total tackles, while LB Nathan Landman posted four solo tackles and 10 total tackles.
| Footballguys view: Stafford struggled at times, but he led the team to the win late in the fourth quarter. Nacua and Adams were stars at the wide receiver position, and guys like Higbee and Parkinson made plays when they needed to at tight end. The Rams get this tough win on the road as they continue to march towards a Super Bowl. |

Adams has been sidelined since aggravating a hamstring injury in Los Angeles' Dec. 14 victory over Detroit. Though he played just 14 games this season, Adams still finished with a league-leading 14 touchdowns, having caught 60 passes for 789 yards. |

Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua caught 10 of his 11 targets for 76 yards and a touchdown and added two carries for 24 yards in a 37-20 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Nacua set career-highs with 129 catches, 1,715 yards receiving, and 10 touchdown receptions. He finishes the season as the NFL's leader in receptions, beating out Trey McBride, with whom he was tied coming into Week 18. McBride caught seven passes to finish three behind Nacua. The Rams star came close to catching Jaxon Smith-Njigba for the league lead in receiving yards, too, coming up just 78 yards shy in one fewer game than the Seahawks wideout played. Nacua had 1,715 yards, and Smith-Njigba finished with 1,793, but Nacua led in yards per game. |

Link to story Rams | Tyler Higbee returns from IR with a bang Sun Jan 4, 10:36 PM
Tyler Higbee returned from injury with five receptions for 91 yards and a key fourth-quarter TD for the Rams (12-5), who will visit the NFC South champion Carolina Panthers (8-9) in the wild-card round.
| Footballguys view: Head coach Sean McVay said postgame that Higbee wasn't supposed to play a lot of snaps originally in his first game off injured reserve. But then tight end Terrance Ferguson got added to the injury report late in the week with a hamstring issue. He couldn't go, so Higbee needed to step up. He did just that, securing a season-high five catches for 91 yards and a score. The Rams ran 13 personnel often, with Higbee and fellow TE Colby Parkinson both playing significant roles. Don't be surprised if the position isn't a major factor in the postseason. |

Rams | TE Colby Parkinson finishes season with eight TDs Sun Jan 4, 10:29 PM
The Rams offense put on a clinic in the second half of the team's 37-30 win over the Cardinals in Week 18. Matthew Stafford threw three touchdowns, including two to tight end Colby Parkinson. Those touchdowns were significant for Parkinson and the franchise. With them, Parkinson finished with eight receiving touchdowns on the season.
| Footballguys view: Not only were the TDs a career-high, but they're also a new Rams record for most by a tight end. Parkinson finished the year with 43 receptions for 408 yards -- also career-bests. The former Seahawk is in his second season with the Rams and has proven to be one of the more reliable pass-catchers for Stafford alongside Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Parkinson took over as the team's starting tight end when Tyler Higbee went on injured reserve, and he remained a top contributor with rookie Terrance Ferguson still progressing. Expect him to be a prime contributor next season. |

Rams | Matthew Stafford tosses four touchdown passes in Week 18 Sun Jan 4, 09:37 PM
Matthew Stafford passed for 259 yards and threw four touchdowns as the Rams rallied to secure the No. 5 seed in the NFC playoffs with a 37-20 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.
| Footballguys view: Stafford passed Dan Marino for seventh place on the NFL's career TD passes list while finishing his MVP-caliber season leading the NFL with 4,707 yards passing and 46 TDs -- the second most in league history by a quarterback at least 37 years old. For our purposes, Stafford, who was drafted in the double-digit rounds as QB25 this summer, finished the year as QB3 overall. It's safe to assume his price will rise in 2026. |
