The Rams recorded three sacks and a fumble recovery in the 21-20 win over the 49ers in Week 18.
Analysis: While this defense outperformed expectations this year, it still hasn't been very good for fantasy purposes with 22.1 points allowed per game (19th) and just 15 takeaways (30th). The pass rush has been steady, but that doesn't provide enough intrigue when going against the Lions, who ranked fifth in the league during the regular season with 27.1 points per game. The Rams secondary probably can't hang with the Lions receivers, but if the Rams can get into a quick lead, it could force QB Jared…read more

The Rams recorded six sacks and an interception in the 26-25 win over the Giants in Week 17.
Analysis: This was the Rams' first time recording more than two sacks in a game since Week 12. Their pass rush has generated just 38 sacks (25th) this season, and they have forced just 14 turnovers (30th). That kind of limited upside makes it tough to risk Rams D/ST, even though the 49ers likely won't play their starters the entire game, if at all. The Rams D/ST has some DFS appeal because the starters may sit, but fantasy managers aiming for a championship shouldn't take on this level of risk.

The Rams recorded two sacks and an interception in the 30-22 win over the Saints in Week 16.
Analysis: The Rams continue to struggle to produce for fantasy purposes this year, posting 2.1 sacks per game (27th) and 0.9 turnovers per game (30th) while allowing 22.1 points per game (19th). They draw a favorable Week 17 matchup against the Giants, who will start QB Tyrod Taylor. Taylor has been decent this year as a starter and can drive the ball downfield, but the Rams should still be able to hold its own and provide a decent fantasy floor. However, Rams D/ST is a fade in large DFS tournaments…read more

The Rams recorded an interception and a sack in the 28-20 win over the Commanders in Week 15.
Analysis: The Rams put QB Sam Howell on the bench but didn't product much for fantasy purposes. This unit has given up 21 points per game this year (17th) but has just 12 takeaways (30th) and 30 sacks (27th). Meanwhile, the Saints are holding their own even when injuries emerge, as they have scored 24 or more points in three straight games while turning the ball over just twice. There's probably a decent floor for Rams D/ST still, but there's not a ton of upside to chase here.

The Rams recorded two sacks and an interception in the 37-31 overtime loss to the Ravens in Week 14.
Analysis: This defense allowed more than 20 points for the first time since Week 9. They'll look to get back on track against the lowly Commanders, who have scored just 20 points per game (23rd) while coughing up a whopping 23 turnovers (28th). Most importantly, QB Sam Howell has been sacked a league-high 58 times. This provides can't-miss upside for the Rams, although it's worth noting that the Rams have struggled to capitalize in such matchups this year, accruing just 11 takeaways (30th) and 29 sacks…read more

The Rams recorded two sacks and an interception in the 36-19 win over the Browns in Week 13.
Analysis: The Rams performed adequately against a Browns team that started QB Joe Flacco and lost WR Amari Cooper midway through the game. It has now held four straight opponents to 20 or fewer points, including the Packers and Seahawks. However, the Week 14 matchup against the Ravens will be difficult, as they rank seventh in the league with 27 points per game while coughing up just 14 turnovers (11th). The Rams haven't shown much of a ceiling this season, so we should avoid the risk in this outing.

The Rams recorded four sacks and no takeaways in the 37-14 win over the Cardinals in Week 12.
Analysis: It's tough to tell if the Rams' inexperienced secondary and defense has turned a corner, or if they simply had a couple of favorable matchups recently. Regardless, they draw another favorable matchup in Week 13 against the Browns, who will either start rookie QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson (concussion) or veteran QB Joe Flacco. Neither signal caller is particularly threatening, especially the rookie who has led the Browns to 25 total points over the last two weeks. In turn, fantasy managers should…read more

The Rams recorded two sacks and an interception in the 17-16 win over the Seahawks in Week 11.
Analysis: Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker left in the first quarter with an oblique injury, and QB Geno Smith injured his elbow late in the third quarter. Still, this was an admirable performance. Nevertheless, this defense hasn't been reliable for fantasy purposes this season, allowing 22 points per game (20th) while forcing just nine turnovers (30th) and recording 21 sacks (23rd). Cardinals QB Kyler Murray will have another week of health under his belt and could break this game open, so there's a lot of…read more

The Rams recorded four sacks and two fumble recoveries in the 20-3 loss to the Packers in Week 9.
Analysis: The Rams have an inexperienced secondary, and their pass rush can't make up the difference with just 19 sacks (25th) through nine games. Their upside is further capped by just eight takeaways (29th) and 22.7 points allowed per game (22nd). They held the Seahawks to 13 points in Week 1, but they could have a difficult time repeating that effort now that rookie WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba is fully healthy and in the mix. It will still be difficult to trust Rams D/ST in redraft formats, but there's…read more

The Rams recorded three sacks and two takeaways in the 43-20 loss to the Cowboys in Week 8.
Analysis: Due to a pick-six and a safety, the Rams' defense was only liable for 34 of the points allowed, although that's still pretty disappointing. This unit has lacked upside all season, as it has registered 15 sacks (25th) and six takeaways (32nd) through eight games. They should have some fantasy viability in deeper leagues, however, as the Packers offense hasn't scored more than 20 points since Week 2 while turning the ball over eight times in that five-game stretch.

The Rams recorded two sacks and no takeaways in the 24-17 loss to the Steelers in Week 7.
Analysis: The Rams struggled to produce against a weak Pittsburgh offense. They've given up 20.1 points per game (14th) while forcing just five turnovers (30th) and recording 12 sacks (29th). Their fantasy upside is severely limited by their lacking pass rush, and they will carry significant risk in Week 8 versus the Cowboys, who have generated 25.7 points per game (fifth) while giving up just six turnovers (fifth).

The Rams recorded two sacks and two takeaways in the 26-9 win over the Cardinals in Week 6.
Analysis: The Rams' pass rush continues to struggle, as it has produced just 10 sacks (28th) and consequently, five takeaways (23rd). Still, the Rams have done a good job for fantasy purposes with just 19.5 points allowed per game (11th). That should make them a safe option in Weke 7 versus the Steelers, who averaged just 15.8 points per game while QB Kenny Pickett has been sacked 14 times through five games.

The Rams recorded a sack and an interception in the 23-14 loss to the Eagles in Week 5.
Analysis: This was a fine outing against one of the top offenses in the league. This unit could be on fantasy radars in Week 6 versus the Cardinals, who have been an enigma this season. The Cards rank 19th with 21.6 points per game while giving up the eighth-fewest turnovers (five) through five games. Considering the Rams haven't shown much upside this year with just eight sacks (28th) and three takeaways (third), it's difficult to get excited about Rams D/ST, although there should be a solid floor for…read more

The Rams recorded two sacks and a fumble recovery in the 29-23 overtime win versus the Colts in Week 5.
Analysis: The Rams have produced just seven sacks and two takeaways on defense this year, but they've held their opponents to a respectable 21.3 points per game. With such limited upside, there's no reason to risk starting Rams D/ST in season-long leagues. The Eagles have scored 29.5 points per game (fifth) while giving up just four turnovers (10th).

Analysis: The Rams slowed down a hobbled QB Joe Burrow, but they didn't necessarily take advantage of the matchup for fantasy purposes. This unit overperformed in Week 1 against the Seahawks which provided some hope for fantasy managers, but they still haven't been productive through three games, posting just five sacks and one takeaway.

The Rams recorded a sack and no takeaways in the 30-23 loss to the 49ers in Week 2.
Analysis: The Rams were outmatched across the board, but it's nothing to be embarrassed about when facing one of the best offenses in the league. They have an interesting opportunity to bounce back in Week 3 versus the Bengals, who will trot out either an injured Joe Burrow (calf) or Jake Browning, a 27-year-old who has never made an NFL start. Either player provides massive opportunity, though either player will have significant talent surrounding him. Furthermore, the Rams' defense hasn't proven…read more

The Rams recorded two sacks in the 30-13 win over the Seahawks in Week 1.
Analysis: This was a surprising result, as the Rams rolled out an extremely inexperienced defense versus one of the top receiver corps in the league. However, they'll have the same personnel in Week 2, and the matchup against the 49ers -- who posted 30 points in Week 1 -- looks even tougher. The Rams D/ST didn't show much upside in Week 1 anyway, so they're not worth the risk against the Niners.

The Rams are fully healthy heading into the 2023 season.
Analysis: The Rams are facing off against the loaded Seahawks offense in Week 1, and they will roll out a woefully inexperienced defense. Their starting outside cornerbacks have 270 combined defensive snaps, and they don't have a serious pass rush outside of DE Aaron Donald. Don't be fooled by the name brand defense; Rams D/ST isn't a viable unit this season.

The Rams will roll out a young and inexperienced defense in 2023.
Analysis: S Jordan Fuller is the only safety with starting experience on the roster, and CB Ahkello Witherspoon is the only cornerback that has played more than 500 defensive snaps in a season. It's going to be very difficult for this defense to reach even mediocrity with that lack of experience. Even DT Aaron Donald can't cover up those issues. Starting the season against the Seahawks, 49ers and Bengals will likely expose those flaws early.

The Rams let DE A'Shawn Robinson and S Taylor Rapp walk in free agency this offseason.
Analysis: The Rams are facing significant turnover on their defense, and Rapp's departure leaves the secondary in a precarious position. Only S Jordan Fuller has any starting experience at safety, while their cornerback room only has one player that has logged more than 500 defensive snaps in the NFL. This is nothing more than a rebuilding year for the Rams unless they can acquire a veteran prior to Week 1.

Analysis: This was a putrid performance by the Rams, who will be without DT Aaron Donald (ankle) in the season finale versus the Seahawks. There are still some very good players on this defense, and they have produced 12 takeaways over the past six games while averaging 23 points allowed per game. They have a tough matchup on tap against the healthy Seahawks, who rank ninth in the league with 24.3 points per game.

The Rams recorded six sacks and four interceptions, including a pick-six, in the 51-14 win over the Broncos in Week 16.
Analysis: The Rams sent QB Russell Wilson to the bench in the fourth quarter with perhaps their best defensive performance of the season. They're tied for 13th with 20 takeaways through 15 games, but they'll still be without DT Aaron Donald (ankle) in Week 17 versus the Chargers. That is one of many factors working against this defense this week, as the Chargers have given up just 17 turnovers (sixth) while scoring 22.8 points per game (13th).

The Rams recorded three sacks and two fumble recoveries in the 24-12 loss to the Packers in Week 15.
Analysis: The Rams are without DT Aaron Donald, and it's unclear when/if he will return this season considering the Rams won't make the playoffs. This unit has been fine without him with two turnovers in all three games, but they have allowed 22.3 points per game in that stretch.

Analysis: Shutting down the Raiders offense is a major achievement, but now the Rams are going on the road to Green Bay in Week 15. They will get a major boost if DT Aaron Donald (ankle) returns, but that is still highly uncertain. The Packers will be a tough test regardless, as they're heating up with 27.3 points per game and just four total turnovers over the last four weeks.

The Rams recorded an interception and a fumble recovery in the 26-10 loss to the Chiefs in Week 12.
Analysis: The Rams have now given up at least 26 points in four of the last five games, as they have allowed 23 points per game (18th) while forcing just 10 turnovers (29th). It's tough to see how fantasy managers can trust this unit outside of very deep leagues, as the Seahawks have piled up 26.5 points per game (fourth). However, the Seahawks have coughed up at least one turnover in each game this year, totaling 15 turnovers (23rd).

The Rams recorded two sacks and no takeaways in the 27-17 loss to the Cardinals in Week 10.
Analysis: The Rams failed to take advantage of the matchup against backup QB Colt McCoy. This unit has underwhelmed with just eight turnovers (27th) and 18 sacks (25th) through nine games. Still, this is a favorable matchup, as the Saints have coughed up 19 turnovers -- the second-most in the league -- while averaging 22.2 points per game (17th). Fantasy managers should feel comfortable starting Rams D/ST this week, although this unit still hasn't capitalized on its opportunities as we would like.

Still, facing the Cardinals opens the door a bit, as QB Kyler Murray has been sacked 24 times while leading the Cardinals to 22.6 points per game (16th).

The Rams should be healthy to start the season with both CB Jalen Ramsey (shoulder) and LB Leonard Floyd (ankle) on track for Week 1 against the Bills.
Analysis: The Rams finished third in the league last season with 50 sacks, but they lost DE Von Miller and DT Greg Gaines -- who combined for 9.5 sacks last year -- in free agency. Still, they should be a high-powered defense once again led by Floyd and DT Aaron Donald on their defensive front as they try to top last year's 25 takeaways (10th). Nevertheless, you'll want a replacement in Week 1 against the Bills.

CB Jalen Ramsey (shoulder) isn't fully healthy but wasn't placed on the PUP list by the Rams to open training camp.
Analysis: Ramsey was expected to be fully unavailable for the start of camp but will instead work as a limited participant after undergoing surgery during the offseason. The star cornerback is expected to be available for Week 1, and the defensive unit overall appears to be in good health. DL Aaron Donald inked an extension rather than retiring, and the Rams D/ST figures to be fantasy relevant again in 2022.

The Rams staved off thoughts of retirement with a new deal for DL Aaron Donald after the team finished 2021 ranked 17th in total defense (344.9 YPG) and 15th in scoring defense (21.9 PPG).
Analysis: Donald contemplated retirement after the Super Bowl win, but he'll return for another season after being selected as a first-team All-Pro for the eighth straight year. The annual roster churn otherwise continued for Los Angeles, with Von Miller, Darious Williams and Sebastian Joseph-Day all departing via free agency. The signing of LB Bobby Wagner is notable, and the continued presences of CB Jalen Ramsey and OLB Leonard Floyd should keep the Rams as a strong unit again in 2022.

Analysis: The Los Angeles D/ST allowed 4.7 yards per play and tallied five sacks and two takeaways against backup QB Tyler Huntley. QB Jimmy Garoppolo has looked good at practice this week and could return from the thumb injury, though he's officially questionable. Otherwise rookie Trey Lance is poised for another start after leading the Niners to a win in his debut. The Rams D/ST has performed well over the past few weeks and is a middling option for Week 18 versus a solid offense.

The Rams allowed 214 yards and 10 points during the Week 15 win over the Seahawks and play the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: The Los Angeles D/ST had three sacks and one takeaway as it had a strong showing versus Seattle, which makes it three straight quality performances. Minnesota scored only 17 points last week but overall has been one of the better offenses in the league, with WR Justin Jefferson and RB Dalvin Cook being some of the best at each of their positions. The Rams D/ST overall talent leaves it on the fringe fantasy radar for Week 16, though it has low upside in this matchup.

The Rams allowed 447 yards and 23 points during the Week 14 win over the Cardinals and play the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: The Los Angeles D/ST came to play with four sacks and two takeaways despite facing one of the most productive offenses in the league. QB Russell Wilson and Seattle has finally found its groove offensively with 30-plus points in two straight contests. Los Angeles has numerous defenders in the COVID-19 protocols (including CB Jalen Ramsey), S Jordan Fuller and LB Von Miller), which could leave the unit short-handed. The Rams D/ST would be a solid option for Week 15 at full strength, but it's…read more

The Rams allowed 197 yards and seven points during the Week 14 win over the Jaguars and play the Cardinals on Monday.
Analysis: The Los Angeles D/ST had two takeaway and two sacks while holding Jacksonville to 3.6 yards per play in a dominating performance. This weekend brings a tougher challenge, as QB Kyler Murray returned with four touchdowns last week after missing three games with an ankle issue. WR DeAndre Hopkins is also back and figures to see plenty of CB Jalen Ramsey. The Rams D/ST has struggled against quality offenses and is a below-averaged option for Week 14 given the matchup.

The Rams surrendered 399 yards and 30 offensive points during the Week 12 loss to the Packers and play the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: The Los Angeles D/ST had one sack and one takeaway as it had a predictably had a tough time slowing down reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers, but greener pastures await this weekend. Rookie QB Trevor Lawrence has been unable to find much sustained success this year, and RB James Robinson (heel) is the only exceptional weapon in the offense. The Rams D/ST has a strong matchup for Week 13 and is a zero-thought start if available.

The Rams come out of their bye week ranked 12th in total defense (346.9 YPG) and 16th in scoring (22.7 PPG) heading into Sunday's matchup with the Packers.
Analysis: The Los Angeles D/ST has been a modest producer all season except for one game, and the contest in Green Bay is unlikely to change that. QB Aaron Rodgers still showcases excellent ball security, while Davante Adams remains one of the best wideouts in football. RB Aaron Jones (knee) could miss his second straight contest, but second-year RB A.J. Dillon can still do plenty of damage himself. The Rams D/ST is a poor choice for Week 12, but a matchup with the Jags next week is attractive if you're…read more

RB Derrick Henry (foot) is now sidelined for Tennessee, and the offense's first game without him could pose some problems. QB Ryan Tannehill figures to depend on WRs A.J. Brown and Julio Jones.

However, the outlook improves this weekend, as Houston has went without a touchdown in three of its past four contests.

The Los Angeles D/ST figures to take a step back in 2021 after leading the league in points and yards allowed last season, but it should still be a strong unit overall.
