Welcome to My LA Rams Blog: A 25-Year Journey

-


Hello, fellow Rams fans and football enthusiasts!

Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I'll be sharing my thoughts, insights, and excitement about the Los Angeles Rams. My name is Stephen, and I’m a UK-based fan who's been proudly supporting the Rams for over 25 years.

It all started back in the St. Louis days of the "Greatest Show on Turf," when players like Kurt Warner, Marshall Faulk, Torry Holt, and Isaac Bruce were lighting up the field. A chance encounter while I was flicking through the TV schedule as a 12-year-old boy—and I was instantly hooked.

And there was this really good team, who played in blue and gold, and were just fun to watch.

It didn’t take long before I was seeking out ways to watch the Rams play every week. It wasn’t easy as a young lad growing up in the UK—back then, it was nearly impossible to watch live. But luckily, it’s gotten a lot easier over the years, and my affection for this team has only grown stronger. Despite being halfway across the globe, I’ve always felt connected to the heart of the Rams. Now, I’m excited to share that passion with all of you here.

In this blog, I’ll dive into everything related to the LA Rams—whether it’s game analysis, team news, player updates, or reflections on the team’s history. And of course, I’ll share what it’s like waking up at 2am to watch a primetime game and then heading to work the next morning!

I’ll also explore some of the key moments that have shaped the franchise and discuss the future of the Rams as they continue to build a championship contender.

The NFL may be a bit different from the UK’s football culture, but the passion and dedication that fans bring to the sport are universal. I hope this space becomes a place for Rams fans—whether in the UK, LA, or beyond—to connect, discuss, and celebrate our team together.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. I look forward to discussing everything Rams-related, from the highs of the Super Bowl victory to the tough losses that make us appreciate the good times even more.

Let’s get started, Rams fans!

LA Rams Top Needs of the 2025 Draft

The Rams made some serious progress in the 2024 season. Not many people expected them to be a playoff team, nevermind coming as close as they did. Pushing the eventual Champions close, at home in the snow. They have a serious platform to build upon - and don't have that many glaring holes in the roster going into the 2025 draft. So what to do with those picks? F*** them - right? Well.... maybe not this time! There are areas where the Rams could use reinforcements. And given their strong track record of uncovering late round gems, don’t be surprised if Les Snead and Sean McVay cook up another draft that makes you go, “Wait… who?” and then, a few months later, “Oh wow, that guy’s a starter. Here are five positions where the Rams could look to get better in the 2025 draft: 1) Tight End The Rams allegedly tried to trade up to the 13th pick last year to get Brock Bowers and it feels like Sean McVay has wanted to upgrade at Tight End for a while.  Granted - Tight Ends like Bowers don...

No Pick, No Problem: Rams Trade Back and Look Ahead

So, Round One Came and Went… A 1am start here in the UK, which was… fun. The first pick went pretty much how everyone expected. Then came the shock trade between the Browns at No. 2 and the Jags at No. 5, which shook things up a bit. But even with the drama, Travis Hunter still went at No. 2, just as most of us predicted. Then Adbul Carter at 3. No shocks really. Now...... the Rams. It was a long wait until pick 26. A loooong wait — until about 4am. Joy! And then… they traded out! Honestly, I can’t even be mad. I half expected them to pull this move. But the haul they got back? Better than I anticipated. Here’s the breakdown: Rams receive: Pick 46 Pick 242 2026 1st Rounder Falcons receive: Pick 26 Pick 101 This was too good a trade for the Rams to turn down, and it tells us two things: 1. They clearly didn’t see much value at 26, and believe the real strength in this draft lies in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. 2. They’re setting themselves up to move up for a top QB in 2026. If t...

Pick 26 Then and Now: The Rams, Cleveland Gary, and the 2025 NFL Draft

Heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams hold the 26th pick in the first round. What will they do with it? Will they trade out of the 1st round? Do something crazy and move up for someone they love? It's all guesswork - what we do know is what they did the last time they made a selection with the 26th pick in the draft. Back in 1989, the Los Angeles Rams were looking to bring some power and punch to their backfield. So, with the 26th overall pick , they called the name Cleveland Everette Gary —a hard-running, no-nonsense running back out of the University of Miami. He was named First Team All American in college and set a Miami record for catches out of the backfield that still stands. It was clear to see why the Rams selected him. And for a few seasons at least, Gary ran well and led the NFL in some key categories. From the U to the Rams: A Backfield Beast Gary wasn’t just big—he was explosive. Standing 6'0" and tipping the scales at 220 pounds, he brought ...
