🔥 Rams LAFB Show | Ryan Anderson w/ Cody Alexander (Match Quarters) 🔥

On this episode of the Rams LAFB Show, Ryan Anderson is joined by defensive guru Cody Alexander of the Match Quarters Substack and Let’s Talk Ball podcast to break down where the Rams stand after coming up just short of the Super Bowl — and what needs to change in 2026.

🧠 What we cover:

🛡️ Why the Rams’ defense stalled late — and how pass-rush depth (not just stars) is the real issue

🔄 Chris Shula’s scheme, blitz rates, and why the front & backend stopped complementing each other

🏈 Cornerback problems: do the Rams need a true CB1, a nickel, or just more bodies?

💰 Ranking the Rams’ young defensive linemen (Verse, Turner, Young, Fisk) and who’s worth paying

⚙️ What the Rams can learn from Super Bowl defenses that win with four up front

🚀 Kliff Kingsbury to the Rams: what he actually brings beyond the “Air Raid” label

🧩 How Kingsbury + Nate Scheelhaase could evolve McVay’s offense and prep for life after Stafford

🔮 The Rams’ long-term QB plan — draft, develop, or wait for the next big opportunity?

If you love real Xs & Os, smart roster-building talk, and zero hot-take fluff, this episode is for you.
