Los Angeles Rams: 3 reasons analysts see bust or boom

The Rams have seen many proclaim them as the 2018 offseason winner. High profile acquisitions like Suh, Talib, and Cooks on offense kept Los Angeles on the front pages and a hot topic with sports fans and NFL commentators, especially on social media and talk radio.

Those same people are also talking about and pointing to the potential for a volatile locker room.

Fans may be quick to scoff at such remarks, but it’s hard to ignore the past of players like Suh or Peters. Even Talib brings his fair share of baggage.

Facts are facts.

Ultimately, it’ll be McVay and defensive coordinator Wade Phillips who may bear the biggest burden should the Rams locker room get upside down, or dumb penalties begin to plague Los Angeles on the field.

Don’t say it can’t happen.
It can.

Most analysts are banking on winning being the elixir that keeps potential malcontents steady through 16 games and 17 weeks.

Winning can certainly cover for a lot of issues that would otherwise hamper a team who is losing, and the Rams aren’t even thinking of taking such a step back.

LA is loaded for a season many see as a potential run towards a Super Bowl, or at the very least a chase at an NFC title.

It’s hard to see any other scenario, but the Los Angeles Rams have certainly placed a few potential road blocks in their path.
