Random Ramsdom: Do Eagles have the Defensive Rookie of the Year?

Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 11/22/24

In yesterday’s Random Ramsdom I asked if the Los Angeles Rams had the Defensive Rookie of the Year on their roster with either Braden Fiske or Jared Verse? My phone must have been listening because today all over my internet feed(s) I see the reality that it is the Philadelphia Eagles who may have the Defensive Rookie of the Year with Quinyon Mitchell.

Mitchell has been balling out, so maybe he will earn the award. Either way, it’s exciting that Sunday night’s game should feature so many young up and coming defenders. These young men haven’t really even hit their stride in the NFL yet so we may be writing about them for years to come. It’s an exciting possibility

Time will tell as it always does.

Please comment on whatever you want, thanks for checking out Turf Show Times and have a great day!

Why Rams-Eagles could decide Defensive Rookie of the Year race (ramswire)

“Defensive Rookie of the Year isn’t quite a two-man race with seven weeks to go, but it’s quickly becoming one. Rams edge rusher Jared Verse has been the odds-on favorite to win the award for several weeks and though he had been pulling ahead after recording 3.5 sacks in Weeks 8-10, Eagles cornerback Quinyon Mitchell is closing the gap.

As of now, Verse is -190 to win Defensive Rookie of the Year at BetMGM. Mitchell is second at +320, with Laiatu Latu a distant third at +2000.

Even if he hasn’t spoken publicly about it, this is an award Verse would surely love to win. He can make a huge statement on Sunday night in a marquee matchup against Mitchell and the Eagles.”

Eagles’ Darius Slay says this rookie has ‘unlimited’ ceiling: ‘He should be Rookie (of the Year) easy’ (cbssports)

“PHILADELPHIA — Quinyon Mitchell has been even better than expected in his first NFL season. The only player in the league that has faced 375+ coverage snaps without allowing a touchdown pass this season, Mitchell has played his way into the Defensive Rookie of the Year conversation.

That’s just the beginning of what Mitchell can accomplish.

“It’s unlimited, man,” Eagles cornerback Darius Slay said of Mitchell’s ceiling. “You know, he got a talent that could just really just blossom real great.”

REPORT: Which Rams Team Will We Get on Sunday? (si.com)

“The problem with trying to pick a winner in this game or any Rams game is that I have no idea which Rams team is going to show up,” Breech said. “Are we going to see the Rams team that put up 30 points on the Vikings in Week 8, or are we going to see the Rams team that didn’t bother to show up during a Week 10 loss to the Dolphins where they only scored 15 points?”

The Eagles have proven to be one of the best teams in the league. Philadelphia is 8-2 on the season after winning six games in a row and seven of their last eight games. Breech credited the Eagles’ consistency over the previous two months.”
