Random Ramsdom: Jared Verse is confident team can make a push in NFC

Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 11/14/24

Jared Verse has been winning over fans with his play on the field and his leadership for the Los Angeles Rams in general, and Verse appears to be embracing a leadership role as he says the team has the right parts to make a push in the NFC now. You can read more about it below, and I think his attitude is really telling of the young athlete. I would expect a veteran player to say that, but a rookie to basically say that he knows his team has what it takes to compete? Not all rookies are going to speak up that way.

It’s early in Verse’s first season in the NFL, but so far all he’s done is show that LA got a rare talent and person in the draft.

No real question today, but please comment on whatever you want, thanks for checking out Turf Show Times and have a great day!

“However, Verse believes the Rams have what it takes to make noise as the season progresses, especially considering how many teams in the NFC have very similar records. Speaking exclusively to Mirror US Sports after the loss, the budding star admits Los Angeles has the same “spark” that Tagovailoa’s return gave the Dolphins – it is all about harnessing it.

“Oh, we already have it,” Verse explained, regarding the team needing a much-required boost. “I mean, I think it’s just now, it’s a short week. We don’t have time to dwell over this [loss]. You know, we got one day. You can focus on it, you can kind of dwell on it.”

“With D.K. Metcalf being sidelined the last couple of weeks with a knee injury, you would think the Seahawks would focus more on Tyler Lockett offensively.

That has not happened, with Lockett amassing just four catches on seven targets over Seattle’s last two games (three of those catches came against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 9, a game the Rams ultimately won). Meanwhile, Jaxon Smith-Njigba has totaled 13 receptions on 20 targets.”

“Mike Florio spoke on Pro Football Talk about how he views the Rams situation thus far into their season.

“The Rams are in this weird mode, where it feels like they want to move forward from their championship team and move forward with a new era of the Rams,” Florio said. “But there is enough left of the guys who delivered the Super Bowl LVI win, when you augment that with the younger players, maybe we can still be a playoff team.”
