Los Angeles Rams 2025 Profile
Coaching Staff
Head Coach: Sean McVay
Offensive Coordinator: Mike LaFleur
Defensive Coordinator: Chris Shula
Special Teams Coordinator: Chase Blackburn
2024 Summary (W-L Record: 10-7)
The Rams started last season 1-4, and there were whispers that they would be sellers at the trade deadline. Then they finished the season 9-3, won the NFC West as well as a playoff game, and were 13 yards away from beating the eventual Super Bowl champions on the road.
The numbers below don’t do justice to how good of a team the Rams had last year and will have in 2025:
Matthew Stafford is still a stud and can perform from the pocket as well as any quarterback in the league (assuming his back is okay).
The running game didn’t rank well (24th in yards per game, 31st in yards per attempt), but they did try to stick with it as much as possible, and it helped make their offense go. They leaned so much on play-action (5th in frequency), so they had to at least attempt to run the ball persistently.
And Stafford was tremendous off of it, completing 71.2% of his passes for 9.3 yards per attempt with a 9-0 TD-INT ratio on play-action.

Defensively, Chris Shula’s unit was better than the numbers indicated. Their effectiveness was driven by two things; their ability to keep the offense guessing and their pass rush’s ability to take advantage whenever the quarterback hesitated.
L.A. used disguise on 43% of snaps last season, more than any other team in the NFL according to
of MatchQuarters. And while their pass rush finished the season just 21st in sacks and pressure %, they were humming by the end of the season. Just ask Sam Darnold (who was sacked 9 times in the Wild Card round) and Jalen Hurts (who was sacked 7 times in the Divisional round) if they thought the Rams’ pass rush was a bottom-12 unit in the league.
