Ex-NFL defender is buying the Rams hype heading into 2025
The Los Angeles Rams keep gaining supporters as the 2025 NFL season approaches. Former Rams defensive tackle Michael Brockers said he believes L.A. is should have the best shot at dethroning the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC because of what they've been able to accomplish this offseason and because they kept Matthew Stafford. Brockers picked them over the only other team he played for, the Detroit Lions, because the Lions lost their coordinators while the Rams still have Sean McVay. Advertisement "Sean McVay, his staff, they always draft really well. They always know what they're doing," Brockers said on Good Morning Football. "Matthew Stafford still has it. Arm is still there. His mind is still sharp. "I see the Rams being the biggest threat to the Philadelphia Eagles this year." Brockers isn't the only former NFL player to say this. Ex-NFL receiver James Jones also picked the Rams as the top contender against the Eagles in 2025. The two teams will get a chance to settle this argument (in the regular season, at least) as early as Week 3. But it wouldn't be a shock to see another matchup sometime in the NFC playoffs.
