Rams get a win today - and a star WR back Thursday night vs. the Vikings.

@sarahbarshop: Sean McVay said he expects Cooper Kupp to play on Thursday vs. Minnesota.

Cobie Durant's first half today: - PBU on third down that held Raiders to a field goal. - Interception that set up a touchdown. - Strip-sack on a blitz that was scooped for a TD by Kam Curl.

The Rams leaned on their defense all game and did again here. Defense ices it. Jaylen McCollough second interception of the day and two in three weeks.

@JourdanRodrigue: Fourth and a yard needed to essentially ice the game and at their 48, Raiders out of time outs...Rams elect to punt.

Jared Verse finished with a career-high 9 pressures on 36 pass rushes against the Raiders, tied for the most pressures by a rookie in a game this season. Verse generated 4 of his pressures on 22 pass rush matchups against Raiders left tackle Kolton Miller. #LVvsLAR | #RamsHouse pic.x.com/7Mi0hsSKmf

Kyren Williams scores his second TD today, second off a defensive takeaway as well. Jordan Whittington, who was limited this week with a shoulder issue, was in on the play in short yardage to help open up the gap.

What a freaking sequence between the safeties Kam Curl and Quentin Lake on the second and third downs. Curl contorted and stretched mid-jump to bat away a pass and Lake wrapped up Bowers on the short catch-and-run.

Kyren Williams' awareness on that long run means the Rams can take the clock down to the two minute warning.

WR Cooper Kupp is INACTIVE. Other inactives for the Rams: Stetson Bennett, Tre'Davious White, Cody Schrader, Jonah Williams and Desjuan Johnson.

For the second consecutive season, the Rams have two rookies among the top 3 in pressures (Byron Young & Kobie Turner). #RamsHouse

Per the Rams radio broadcast a change we suspected was coming after McVay's comments about competition this week at certain offensive positions... @JB_Long notes that undrafted rookie OL Justin Dedich getting ready for a start at left guard.

Can't get enough time for downfield throws + can't/won't stick with the run (or getting just one yard when you need two) and you're looking at about as flat an offense as it gets - including dimensionally

@sarahbarshop: From @ESPNStatsInfo: Matthew Stafford has completed 5-5 passes for 41 yards on throws 5 yards or fewer downfield. He is 0-3 on all other attempts.

Darious Williams quietly playing some really quality football in his return from hamstring injury.

Durant talked with me this week about how much Darious Williams, Ahkello Witherspoon and Tre White lift him up in the CBs room (even with White on the bench). He says they give him so much confidence to play fast and free.

@JourdanRodrigue: Cobie Durant's INT is turned into a TD by a Rams offense that came out flat. Kyren Williams' streak of at least one TD in every game this year remains intact.

Rams opened in nickel with Josh Wallace again in that position. As noted this week, Lake now playing back deeper to help with all-field comms.

Still no Jordan Whittington for the Rams. It's been Demarcus Robinson (27 out of 27 offensive snaps), Tyler Johnson (27), Tutu Atwell (23) and Xavier Smith (3) so far.

Rams are in 12 personnel...with Hunter Long and Davis Allen.

The Los Angeles Rams aren’t done making changes on both offense and defense. After shaking up the secondary in Week 5, the Rams came out with a change on their offensive line Sunday.

Logan Bruss has been benched as the starting left guard in favor of undrafted rookie Justin Dedich, who was signed by the Rams this offseason out of USC. It’s Dedich’s first career start in the NFL, replacing the former third-round pick.

Bruss had started the last three games and was active for each of the first five games this season. He’s still active for this game against the Raiders but he’s not a starter anymore, it seems
