8 HRS AGO - Shane Waldron | Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports Several coaches have left Sean McVay’s staff since end of the season When the Los Angeles Rams’ season ended in the NFC divisional round playoffs at the Green Bay Packers 11 days ago, there was no way coach Sean McVay could have envisioned the upheaval to his coaching staff that has unfolded. McVay now has another opening on his staff as Rams’ passing game coordinator Shane Waldron has been hired by the NFC West rival Seattle Seahawks as offensive coordinator. Seattle is planning to hire Rams’ passing game coordinator Shane Waldron for its offensive coordinator job, per source. Waldron will take over for Brian Schottenheimer.Rams losing Waldron, Brad Holmes, Ray Agnew, Joe Barry and Aubrey Pleasant.— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) January 27, 2021 It is a terrific promotion for Waldron, who was with McVay in Washington before coming to the Rams.

1 DAY AGO - Jared Goff | Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports What a day for the Rams and their franchise quarterback The Los Angeles Rams are just messing with Jared Goff at this point. On Tuesday, Rams general manager Les Snead spoke to local media members and, of course, Goff’s status with the franchise was a burning topic of conversation. Just like coach Sean McVay last week, Snead was lukewarm in his commitment to Goff, the team’s highly-paid quarterback. Les Snead, when asked by a reporter why not just say whether Goff is their QB of the future, says he's a "Ram right now, what's today? Jan. 26....” and that he would get questions and scrutiny regardless, cites QB wins, and emphasizes they want to be a better offense throughout.— Jourdan Rodrigue (@JourdanRodrigue) January 26, 2021 Speaking of similar messaging to McVay: Les, when pressed, says it’s too early to speculate about Goff and that he is a Ram “at this moment”, which is a fancier way of saying “right now” for those Collapse

2 DAYS AGO - And what should they learn from it? I actually think the LA Rams had a successful 2020 offseason given their lack of options in free agency and the draft. For the Rams to improve their win-loss record and make it to the NFC’s “final four” despite not having a first round pick or much salary cap space to retain a number of key starters who left in free agency, Les Snead and Sean McVay deserve credit for finding a way to the divisional round. But they also take blame for not finding a way to the Super Bowl. What were LA’s most significant missteps in 2020 and what should they have learned from it when it comes to the 2021 offseason ahead? No backup or succession plan at quarterback Unless you choose to believe that McVay really believes in John Wolford, then the Rams essentially said “No, thank you” and “Not an issue” when it came to securing a fallback option should Jared Goff get injured or fail to rebound from his 2019 season. He failed to rebound, and then he got hurt. The Rams Collapse

2 DAYS AGO - Photo by Dannie Walls/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images And how the LA Rams could benefit The LA Rams are not slated to pick until the 57th overall selection in the 2021 NFL Draft and getting anywhere near the first round would come at a high cost. Instead it might be best to assume that the Rams won’t make their first selection until the mid-to-late second round but that doesn’t necessarily mean that the franchise won’t land a prospect who could have been worthy of going on day one. And thankfully the deepest positions in this particular class could also be the positions that the Rams are hoping to strengthen for next season and the long-term future. The top four positions that Les Snead’s staff could be targeting this year might be: Quarterback, Linebacker, Offensive Line, and Wide Receiver. The deepest four positions according to Bleacher Report’s Maurice Morton: Quarterback, Offensive Line, Wide Receiver, and Linebacker. Perfect. Quarterback Six of the top-40 players on Collapse

3 DAYS AGO - Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports Should the Rams consider making a change? Six of the last eight Super Bowl quarterbacks became that team’s starter within the two years prior to reaching the biggest stage. That much we know is true after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs won their respective championship games on Sunday. Will the Los Angeles Rams be among the team’s to make a QB change next? The Chiefs traded up for Patrick Mahomes in the 2017 draft despite already having a capable quarterback in Alex Smith, and they’ve now made the Super Bowl in two of Mahomes’ three seasons as the starter. Mahomes was the league’s MVP in his first season at the helm. The Buccaneers could have given Jameis Winston another opportunity, or shied away from giving a 43-year-old quarterback a two-year, $50 million contract, but will be hosting the Super Bowl in Tampa Bay in large thanks to their decision to sign Tom Brady. In 2019, it was Mahomes against Jimmy Garoppolo, a Collapse

3 DAYS AGO - Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports Talk about it here! The Green Bay Packers defeated the LA Rams last week — can they do the same to Tom Brady’s Buccaneers on Sunday? Who will be representing the NFC in the Super Bowl? Either a Tampa Bay team that hasn’t been there since 2002, or the Packers returning for the first time since 2010. Talk about it right here!
