The Los Angeles Rams had a rough start to the 2023 season, starting 3-6 through the first half of the year. However, they turned things around rapidly, and finished the season on an impressive run, while being able to land the sixth seed in the NFC and make the playoffs.
A large part of their resurgence was from the team’s passing game. Kyren Williams turned in an excellent season as a rusher, but without Matthew Stafford throwing to guys like Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, they couldn’t have made it as far as they did.
Speaking of that combination, Rams’ beat writer Adam Grosbard spoke a bit about the fit between those two with NBC Sports:
Grosbard has a solid point here, as predicting a clear number one between these guys would be hard to do. Both of these players have proved now that they can produce at a high level, and it’s tough to predict who will end up being better in 2024.
The truth is, it would be very hard to find a team with a better receiving duo than the Rams right now.
Kupp has missed some games with injuries over the past couple of seasons, but he’s still managed to produce while he’s on the field. In his last full season, he put together one of the best seasons for a receiver ever, leading the league in multiple stat categories.
