Top Los Angeles Rams Plays Of 2019

This Los Angeles Rams season was like a tin of those Danish butter cookies. The ones that are a bunch of different shapes and come in stacks of three in those paper doily cups. They are kinda good, but after a few they are awful. Then you eat more and you think, “Oh, these aren’t too bad.” So you eat like 25 more and make yourself sick.

You go through the same thing week after week, trying to decide if they are good or trash. You’ve eaten 100 and low and behold you still haven’t eaten half the tin. So you stick the tin in a dark corner of the pantry hoping to forget about them because you can’t bear to throw them out.

Yes, the Rams season was just like that. After winning three straight, they lost three straight. They beat up on some would-be playoff teams, but they also lost to the Buccaneers and some guy named Mason Rudolph. One week they blow out the Seahawks, the next week they crap the bed against the Cowboys. But as the old adage says, there is always next year. There’s so much offseason still to come.

But before we look ahead to next season, reach to the back of the pantry and pull out that tin of 2019 Rams cookies. Maybe it’s because you haven’t had any Rams for two weeks or maybe because you discovered that the cookies are actually very good when paired with bourbon. Maybe they weren’t so bad after all. Nine and seven is a winning record and Jared Goff threw a lot of yards and hey, at least we aren’t the Redskins!

Whatever the reason, let’s celebrate the good ones with the Top Plays of 2019.

Cooper Kupp’s 66-Yard Reception Against The Saints

This game was huge for one reason. New Orleans really wanted revenge for the missed pass interference call in the 2018 NFC championship game. They didn’t get it. The Rams delivered a 27-9 beat down.

In the fourth quarter, the Rams faced a third and two on their own 33. Kupp caught a seven-yard pass over the middle from Jared Goff. He took it to the one-yard line setting up a touchdown to go up by 18 with 8:37 left in the game. This touchdown put a nail in the Saints’ coffin, squashing the revenge match up.

For Kupp, this proved he was back to elite form after undergoing ACL surgery last season. He tacked on 50 yards after contact and evaded four more Saints defenders on his way to the one yard line. Furthermore, his fellow receivers, Brandin Cooks and Robert Woods, were out front blocking his way down field. A great individual effort is one thing, but that kind of team effort is what every fan wants to see.
