Game Thread: Week 2, The Los Angeles Rams @ The Tennessee Titans, Nissan Stadium, Nashville, TN, Sunday, 09/14/2025, 10:00 AM, PST

After a slow start on Offense and a ready-for-Prime-Time Defense, the Rams pulled-off a win at SoFi for the Opener of the 2025 Season. Now the Rams move on to their First Away Game of the Season by traveling to Nashville, Tennessee to take on the Tennessee Titans. The Offense against the Texans was very anemic in the First Half but picked-it-up for the Second Half of the game while riding on the consistent and pretty good Defense who kept the Rams in the game.

The Offense had better get polished in a week because they will be away and will need to get on the board early and often. The Defense needs to clean-up giving up big pass plays as their Run Defense has def improved.

This game against the Titans is very winnable but it won't occur if the Rams do the same thing they did against the Texans. We shall see how this one shapes-up.

Houston is a lot better than Tennessee is. Trust me on this.

Ward doesn't have a lot of talent. Ridley had some drops and looks to be nothing like the player he showed in Atlanta and Jacksonville.

we got some very good breaks yesterday. We seemed to move the ball with Puka and Adams but why can't we punch it in? (only saw youtube clips/sister had her first baby shower couldn't miss it or risk mother's rage!!)

Yep Red Chaos, some things are just more important than the Rams.

Texans defense is solid, have to give them some credit. That said, I fully expected the Rams to be a bit rusty after resting the 1st teamers in the preseason. Hopefully we're past that now.

Stop the penalties, how many big plays came back for holding last Sunday. Tighten that up.

To be expected after not playing the first team offense at all in the preseason games.

Looks like Avila and Parkinson may not make the Game in Tennessee. They both might not even make the trip. That means we will see Limmer and possibly Dedich at Guard and Ferguson may see a significant increase in touches now that we are down to Higbee and Allen at TE.

Rams-Titans injury report: 2 starters return for LA but Steve Avila still out

The Rams are making progress leading up to Sunday's game, welcoming back two starters to practice on Thursday.

Pressure the young QB and have a great flight home.

 

[Retroram52]

And here we go!

 

[Retroram52]

Avila, Parkinson, D. Johnson, Humphries, and Bennett are all inactive today!

 

[Retroram52]

A couple of penalties early on, on Tennessee. They are going backwards!

 

[Retroram52]

Rams start on Defense.

 

[DJ Fieri]

LFG!!!

 

[Retroram52]

Way to go Defense. Now Higbee on Offense is still not in the game.

 

[Retroram52]

Six!!

A bombshell to Nacua on a run! TD! That was on a 4th and 1.
