The Rams have been all over the headlines this offseason, particularly for additions they've made to their defense. They acquired Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns, and also added Chiefs superstar cornerback Trent McDuffie and his co-star Jaylen Watson. But with all that buzz around Garrett what does that say for the high-powered production that quarterback Matthew Stafford, the reigning NFL MVP, brings on the other side of the ball?
Rams offense still scary heading into 2026

Boasting an offense on paper that has Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, Kyren Williams in tandem with an explosive Blake Corum, this team has weapons everywhere. Just like when Kurt Warner and company had Torry Holt, Isaac Bruce and Marshall Faulk. Adams had the most receiving touchdowns last season, Puka Nacua was making highlight catches every single week and Williams made plays everywhere from catching passes to making key blocks for Stafford.
The Rams had the most passing touchdowns in 2025 (46) and they also had the second most passing yards (4,557). That is largely running out of 13 personnel too. But most importantly they were tied for the least amount of sacks, only allowing 23 in 2025.
Alaric Jackson’s Offseason Problems Should Not Make Fans Worry

The offensive line is in good shape as well even with the recent problems with left tackle Alaric Jackson in the news. The blindside position could become a problem if he is suspended. The two easiest fixes for if Jackson would be suspended would be to either sign former all-star left tackle Taylor Decker and or sign someone like Joe Noteboom or Cam Robinson to play on the right side and move Warren McClendon to left tackle for the duration of the suspension.
That solution with Noteboom or Robinson would be the most cost effective if the Rams are still wishing in the Seven Star Wishing Well for Aaron Donald to come out of retirement.
Why All This Attention Really Matters

All the Garrett news essentially just forces every opponent to focus so hard on him that they just forget how special this offense really is coming into 2026. They don’t realize that even though others believe the Rams could have used their 13th overall pick on Makai Lemon or Kenyon Sadiq, they truly don’t see just how good players like Jordan Whittington, Terrance Ferguson and Konata Mumpfield are. Their abilities should definitely be on the rise coming into the season, potentially helping in the same ways as Super Bowl winners Az-Zahir Hakim and Ricky Proehl both did for the Greatest Show On Turf.
