‘Easier said than done.’ Rams cautious about Super Bowl ambitions after 10-win season

LA Times  

Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald tackles celebrates after tackling Cleveland Browns running Jerome Ford during a Rams win at SoFi Stadium on Dec. 3. ”Easier said than done,” Snead said, adding, “The lesson would be not come in and think, ‘OK, this is what we do and we’re going to have 11 wins.’” Rams general manager Les Snead, center, celebrates with receiver Cooper Kupp, left, and quarterback Matthew Stafford after the Rams’ Super Bowl win in February 2022. If the Rams are to make another Super Bowl run, they will probably need quarterback Matthew Stafford, defensive lineman Aaron Donald and receiver Cooper Kupp, the team’s highest-paid players, to remain pillars. “All those options are going to be on the table,” Snead said, adding that after the Super Bowl the Rams will begin, “really assessing the players who have, let’s call it, a legitimate chance of being in and around 19. “I would say no, because it’s very early,” he said, noting that to determine if a draft pick was a mistake, “you probably have to get to the totality of the career, and so time will tell.” The Rams reignited their rushing attack with second-year running back Kyren Williams and, perhaps more importantly, a largely injury-free offensive line.
