Last year Davis Allen played every 13P snap. I imagine it's the same this year.
Davis Allen has turned into a fine Tight End. I would love to see him on the team next year but my hunch is that Les will allow him to test the market and he will get a good offer and the Rams won't match it. He is a stud in his own right though. Just gonna enjoy watching him this year along with our other studs at TE.

I expect Allen to get poached next year. Rams FA's are a desirable commodity in the NFL and I expect many teams will like to get there hands on a good solid TE that has been fully immersed in the Rams 13P system .

B. Young is likely gone too unless he get extended before FA. Young stands to make a big stack if he hits FA.
 
Josiah Stewart had a weird game. He had a sack and let go of Winston for some inexplicable reason. He looked off to me.
After the hit on Dart he looked tentative as hell whenever he hit somone, or failed to hit someone. Like he got spooked thinking he hurt him. Can't play passive in the league, it will spit you right out. Needs to get his head on straight this week.

I agree with you 100%.

The 2 combo blocking/passcatching TEs are Colby Parkinson & Davis Allen right now. Losing both of them in 6 months will be hard to replace in 2027. DA's chances of remaining a Ram in 27 are far better more than CP's $$$$$.

CP is carrying a cap hit over $9 million at a young age of only 27 years old. CP is on course for a serious, sizeable increase in contract from teams with great needs @ TE and endless cap funds. HC is sure to kick up a tantrum on losing DA's blocking in his offense in 27.

I see this 2026 season as Tyler Higbee's last. He is a shell of what he was before his knee was destroyed 2 yrs ago. Rams can release TH & use the $2 mil in an effort to retain DA in a new contract.
 
I think Higbee can still play, but Parkinson and Allen are really solid guys. Ferguson is a bit of a hybrid at this point. It's unlikely everyone makes it through the season without some dings and bumps and bruises, so Higbee is a luxury at this point.
 
Look for this past year's 2nd round pick Max Klare to be in the mix, 2026 will be a learning year for him.
TE Max Klare would seem to be a clone of TE Terrance Ferguson. MK's strengths mirror TF's. The weaknesses are also very similar. Both still need to learn to block & demonstrate Consistency.

In the 2026 3-game pre-season, MK did not show me as being worthy of a 2nd-round selection. I was far more impressed with TF last 2025 pre-season. From what I observed in pre-season, I do not expect to see MK on the field this season unless it's a blowout game.

Conclusion: both these high Ram draft selections are in great need of much better enhancements in their in-line blocking & functional strength to be able to replace Parkinson & Allen in this offense.
 
If the Rams played strictly 11 and 13 personnel, then I calculate we played 13 personnel on 33/62 snaps, and 11 personnel on 29/62. Somebody must have the official stat line for this?

LA Rams used 13 personnel on 54.9% of their offensive snaps against the New York Giants.

"As they leaned into last year, the Rams were effective using 13 personnel (three tight end sets). Per Next Gen Stats, Los Angeles used 13 personnel on 28 plays (54.9%) of the offensive snaps, averaging 10.4 yards per play and scoring two touchdowns with that personnel grouping.

When the Rams used 13 personnel, that left Adams on the field as the lone receiver – and he thrived."
Here's one example:

Stewart was the one who oddly let Winston walk out of the scrum and throw it down field. It looked like he assumed Winston already threw the ball, and so he didn’t finish the sack.

I think he believed the whistle was blown as they pushed Winston back and was in the grasp.

Looking at the WR snaps, I see that the Rams secret weapon Tutu Atwell is staying a secret....

Which means he might see the field but hardly any targets if we're far enough ahead in a game.
We've been so rich and deep in veteran talent for the last few years that rookies see very little playing time.

Is a great play to showcase how unstoppable Stafford/Davante is in redzone. Stafford's already throwing the ball when Adams has JUST made his move to begin running forward and is still at the 10 yard line. Defense completely cheat towards 13P TE heavy side including the safety standing still who is only person who could possibly prevent this touchdown (but DA uses CB covering him to box out safety too) and Stafford finesses a pass to a spot 12 yards from where DA is currently at and they connect perfectly.
