All three rivals could give Rams trouble in NFC West | Ramblin’ Fan

I mean, it’s the NFL. No season is ever a cakewalk, but I really struggle to envision both the Arizona Cardinals and the San Francisco 49ers really giving the Rams much trouble at all. Sure, the Rams might not go 6-0 in the division again, but I firmly believe they have a tight grip around the NFC West crown for the foreseeable future

There’s no reason not to sign DT Domata Peko | LA Sports Hub

I generally agree. Peko is a serviceable defensive tackle who operates best in a nose tackle alignment. He’s not flashy, nor will he make game-wrecking plays, though he can ensure Greg Gaines has the time needed to develop properly

Andrew Whitworth ranked among top 11 tackles in the league | Rams Wire

Big Whit was actually ranked sixth by Doug Farrar of the Touchdown Wire. That seems to be a fair ranking for one of the most consistent performers in the league regardless of position

Despite being one of the most productive receivers in the NFL, WR Brandin Cooks has never attended an NFL pro bowl. Could 2019 be his first pro bowl season?

Former NFL Head Coach Jeff Fisher speaks on Todd Gurley’s knee | Yahoo Sports

VIDEO: Jeff Fisher drops the quote saying Gurley’s knee injury is “not career-threatening”. By no means is Fisher a medical expert, though it’s likely he has all the “info” with Gurley’s knee after being the man that initially drafted him

I think Cooks' first Pro Bowl is a virtual certainty. It's gonna happen with him in this offense, just a matter of when. I will say that if he had made that catch in the Super Bowl he'd be much more of a guy other players would have their eyes on, though. IMO that was a painful thing for him after the Patriots elected not to pay him, where he made them look right. But he's got nothing but time to continue to establish that he's a top wideout in this league.
