5 key plays from Rams embarrassing loss to Cardinals
The Los Angeles Rams fall 18-16 to the Arizona Cardinals in a pivotal divisional clash on Oct. 18, 2026, with five decisive moments sealing their defeat. A missed two‑point conversion after Blake Corum’s TD, a failed 4th‑and‑1 FB dive by Davis Allen, and a pre‑snap false start that forced a botched 4th‑and‑8 screen all stymied drives. A replay‑overturned Colby Parkinson touchdown would have given the Rams a first‑and‑goal with seconds left, and a questionable phantom penalty on Josh Wallace granted the Cardinals extra yardage for the game‑winning field goal. These errors underscore how narrowly the Rams missed a win.
Rams-Cardinals final score: L.A. loss puts playoffs in jeopardy
The Los Angeles Rams fall to 2-4 after a 18-16 loss to Mike LaFleur’s Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, slipping to last place in the NFC West. A walk‑off 43‑yard field goal by Chad Ryland clinches the win one second after the Rams briefly lead thanks to punter Ethan Evans. Matthew Stafford throws for 222 yards and two touchdowns, but the Rams’ offense stalls, managing only a late touchdown to Colby Parkinson. Injuries to kicker Blake Grupe and the absence of Trent McDuffie and Myles Garrett hurt the defense, which still allows six scoring drives. Sean McVay admits the team “beat ourselves,” highlighting penalties, turnovers and a lack of urgency as the franchise’s playoff hopes dwindle.
Rams lose new kicker moments into his L.A. debut
The Rams’ newest kicker, Blake Grupe, suffers a knee injury just moments after debuting against the Cardinals in Week 6, leaving him doubtful for the next game. Grupe had just nailed a 44‑yard field goal when the injury occurred. With the team already shuffling kickers this season, backup punter Ethan Evans may be called upon to attempt field goals, despite never having done so in the NFL (he was 10‑of‑18 in college). The Rams now face a potential third kicker change as special‑teams woes continue.
Rams vs. Cardinals: Game thread for Week 6
The Los Angeles Rams (2-3) host the Arizona Cardinals (1-4) on Sunday at 4:05 p.m. in Week 6, a pivotal NFC West matchup. Both teams are slipping in the playoff race, with the Rams seeking to stay alive after a narrow loss to the Bills, while the Cardinals rebound from a fourth straight defeat and the recent trade of Marvin Harrison Jr. New Cardinals coach Mike LaFleur hopes to break the Rams’ recent dominance under Sean McVay. A Rams loss could end their division hopes, whereas a win would only provide breathing room. Fans can join the live game thread to discuss the outcome.
Trent McDuffie inactive for Week 6 due to groin injury
The Los Angeles Rams announce cornerback Trent McDuffie will miss Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals after a groin injury in practice. McDuffie, hailed as the league’s top corner this season, leaves a big hole in the secondary, forcing defensive coordinator Chris Shula to tweak coverage assignments. Cam Lampkin steps onto the active roster as his replacement, but the Rams must rely on the rest of their defensive backs to contain Arizona’s passing attack in this divisional clash. The injury was reported on October 18, 2026, and the team hopes McDuffie's sidelining is short‑term.
Rams are searching for offensive identity. Sunday is a chance to find it.
There are no automatic wins in the NFL. Still, the Los Angeles Rams are favored over the Arizona Cardinals by a heavy 12.5 points on Sunday afternoon. Simply winning and moving to 3-3 does not clear the bar. The Rams still are not sure who they are offensively this season. Winning plus showing signs of […]
Aaron Donald’s snap count is climbing each each week
Aaron Donald is looking more comfortable with every game, and the Los Angeles Rams are responding by giving the future Hall of Famer a larger workload.

Blake Grupe makes Rams debut on Sunday
The Los Angeles Rams made a change at kicker when they replaced Harrison Mevis with Blake Grupe, and Grupe gets the chance to rock and roll on Sunday. How much of a leash will Sean McVay give Grupe? How many attempts can we expect to see in his first game with the Rams? It’s all […]
Rams represent ‘Super Bowl-sized’ game for the Cardinals
The Los Angeles Rams are just trying to right their ship in time to still compete for the NFC West with the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks, but for the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday’s game is about more than the playoffs.

Trent McDuffie injured in Rams practice
The Los Angeles Rams could be without their best cornerback when they face the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6, as Trent McDuffie is questionable after suffering a groin injury during Thursday’s practice. Head coach Sean McVay confirmed Friday that McDuffie would not practice, leaving his availability for Sunday’s divisional matchup uncertain. McDuffie’s potential absence would […]
Will Sam Darnold be the starter when Rams face Seahawks?
The Seattle Seahawks may be questioning if Super Bowl winner Sam Darnold is still the right man for the job, just six weeks into his second season with the team. When the Los Angeles Rams face the Seahawks twice in the final three weeks of the season, will they be facing Darnold, backup Drew Lock, […]
3 things I think ahead of Rams-Cardinals
Good teams keep losing teams losing. While the Los Angeles Rams are one of the NFL’s best teams on paper, their 2-3 start to the season is a major disappointment. There remains plenty of time to course correct and find footing in the NFC playoff picture; however, the jury is still out—are the Rams good? […]

Andrew Whitworth irritated with Harrison Mevis after Rams’ loss
Andrew Whitworth explained on Fitz and Whit that he was a bit salty with Harrison Mevis after the Los Angeles Rams lost to the Buffalo Bills, and it wasn’t only because Mevis missed crucial kicks. It was because Mevis was laughing with Bills players after the loss. Whitworth said that laughing after a loss doesn’t […]
Rams could see debut of rookie Keagen Trost this week
The Los Angeles Rams are opening the 21-day practice window for Keagen Trost and Sean McVay believes that the rookie tackle could be available as soon as Sunday. Trost is not yet activated from injured reserve, but this move means that the team has 21 days to either activate him or lose him for the […]
Rams may have inadvertently derailed Jalen Hurts’ season
The Philadelphia Eagles have ruled out quarterback Jalen Hurts for their Week 6 game against the Carolina Panthers due to a blood clot, and the most surprising part is when it happened. Hurts was apparently first injured in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Rams and the issue has worsened since then, according to NFL […]

The Los Angeles Rams are making roster moves at a fast and furious pace, all centered around the special teams. That continued Wednesday with the officially announcements for signing edge Garrett Nelson, cornerback Damarion “Pepe” Williams to the practice squad, and kicker Blake Grupe to the roster. In corresponding moves, the Rams jettisoned edge Jamie […]
Should Rams bring back Joe Noteboom as A.J. Jackson insurance?
The Los Angeles Rams need insurance at left tackle behind Alaric Jackson, and if they want to look outside the current roster there are a few veteran free agents left who can fill that need. One of the most intriguing names left on a bare market is the one Rams fans will remember the best: […]
Myles Garrett could make Rams return next week, per report
The Los Angeles Rams could get back Myles Garrett as soon as next week against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. Garrett’s potential availability would provide a significant lift for a Rams team that is 2-3 and facing another midseason “must-win” stretch after a slow start. Garrett has not played since […]
What fans criticizing Sean McVay are forgetting about the Rams
The Los Angeles Rams are 2-3 and once again the finger pointing is at Sean McVay and his handling of special teams, play calling, and clock management. It’s a common story in the McVay era, but it’s not nearly as bad of a tale as what the Rams were like before McVay rescued this franchise […]
Rams make roster moves, try to figure out special teams
The Los Angeles Rams added Blake Grupe as their new kicker (for now), and they’ve added some other players including cornerback Damarion Williams. Williams could be a signing to help while Jaylen Watson deals with his injuries, but Williams could also be someone to bolster L.A.‘s special teams. Sean McVay said all options were on […]
A.J. Jackson’s suspension reduced to one game
One day after announcing a two-game suspension for L.A. Rams left tackle Alaric Jackson, the NFL has reduced his punishment down to one game. Jackson will not be able to play for the Rams against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 6, but will be able to return to face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week […]
