4 players to blame for the Rams loss to the Dolphins in Week 10

The LA Rams winning streak has ended at three games. While the 2024 NFL season is not over, at least in terms of the team's postseason plans, the loss delivered a serious blow to the team. This was an ugly loss. What that means is that it was a preventable loss, a winnable game, a football game that could be the one that dictates the final outcome of the season.

This team spends a lot of money on offense. More than any other team in the NFL this season. But the Rams offense is not anywhere close to the best. In fact, the offense could not score a touchdown in Week 10. That is a tough pill to swallow considering the team fielded QB Matthew Stafford, WRs Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, and had RB Kyren Williams handling the running.

Holding individual players' feet to the fire after a loss may not seem right to some fans. But we laud those players who contribute to wins. So why do we nod in approval when citing the players who helped the team to find success, but turn a blind eye to those whose errors contributed to the loss?

At least, these players has every opportunity to help prevent the loss, but failed to do so. So who gets called out on the team for failing to stop the team from self-destructing? Here are four players whose actions sunk the team faster than they could bail water.

(4) - RB Kyren Williams

On the surface, you may wonder why RB Kyren Williams appears on this list. After all, he hauled in five of six passes for 28 yards, and carried the football 15 times for 62 yards. While not eyebrow raising numbers, it was certainly not a horrible night. Ah, but there is more to this story.

After an interception by Rams ILB Christian Rozeboom with the team behind by a score of 10-0, the offense took the field with great field position. The Rams had first down and 10 yards to go at the Miami Dolphins 43-yard line. The Rams started the offensive series by handing off the football to Williams. It would be the only offensive play of this series.

After rushing four yards, Williams fumbled the football, and it was recovered by the Miami Dolphins. Imagine that. The Rams defense gets an interception, only for the offense to turn the football over on the very next play. It's these moments in the ebb and flow of the game's momentum that fans can miss. But if the Rams had converted the possession into a touchdown, the outcome of this game would have been much different.

But he fumbled, forcing the Rams defense back onto the football field.
