Nobody in the Rams locker room takes more care with his sartorial appearance than Torry Holt. So it was a bit jolting to see Holt pull on a replica of a 1930s-style leather helmet Friday for his weekly gathering with…

He’s played with broken ribs, a sore shoulder, a swollen thumb, a creaky knee and various other maladies. But his head is “one thing I’m not going to mess with,” Marc Bulger said earlier this week.

Bulger suffered a concussion…

In his first three NFL seasons, linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa piled up tackles, leading the Rams in each of those years. Since then, he’s been piling up injuries.

The latest is a torn MCL in his left knee, suffered Sunday against…

A day later, the Rams’ brain trust offered no coherent explanation for their goal-line failures Sunday in the 24-19 loss to the Seahawks. To review:

The Rams started this quarter by stuffing the Seahawks on a third-and-one play, turning the ball over to the offense again. At this point in the game, Seattle had minus-1 total yards for the game.

Minus-1!

The Seahawks offense…

Will Witherspoon certainly enjoys blitzing. On the second play from scrimmage, he dumped  Seahawks quarterback  Matt Hasselbeck for a 7-yard loss by coming up the middle.

On third-and-17, Witherspoon attacked from the outside and sacked Hasselbeck for a 9-yard loss. Not…
