It is not an uncommon occurrence for great people to follow even greater ones. Although Puka Nacua is not considered great as of now, he sure has broken some records that the NFL did recognize and is well on his way there. The LA Rams are headed to play the Philadelphia Eagles in the SoFi stadium and Puka Nacua made sure he paid his homage to the GOAT of NBA, LeBron James. Maybe keeping his legacy in mind will help him conquer the difficult game ahead.
The LA Rams recently posted a video that shows us just that. Paired with the good news about Cooper Kupp returning, things are just getting better for the Rams are they are stuck in the slump and going against one of the best teams in the NFL, who happen to have a special trick on their sleeve. But more on that later, let’s talk about Nacua and his drip for now.

The recent video by the LA Rams X (Formerly Twitter) page shows Puca Nakua walking into the SoFi stadium ahead of the game, wearing an LA Lakers jersey. The Jersey has the number 6 written on it and we all know what that means, the iconic number that LeBron James has donned since 2010. Maybe Puka Nacua is on his way to greatness, and he will get a ring this year. Who knows? One thing is for sure, if the Rams beat the Eagles, the whole NFL will go into a spiral, especially after what they have in store for the Eagles.

Thankfully, Cooper Kupp has returned to the game from a 4-week long hiatus due to a calf injury. What this means for the Rams is that they have two top-tier fully functional wide receivers, which the Rams intend to put to full use, as they recently disclosed in another post on X. Interesting game ahead, as this might as well affect the Rams’ NFC ratings. They currently have won 2 games and lost 2 games as well, while the Eagles stay undefeated with 4 wins under their belt.
Hopefully, the Nacua and the team will be able to set a new record and find a way to counter the ‘tush-push’. Who are you rooting for in this current game?
A slow start
The teams are going at it and fortunately for the Eagles, they are in the lead, which shouldn’t raise any eyebrows. The tension is high in the game. Cooper Kupp is doing what’s expected of him and is averaging pretty good. The Rams are having a slow start but the good thing is Puka Nacua and Kupp are keeping up the pace and are currently at a bottleneck. The tables can turn at any time as the game is still in its nascent phase.

It’s obvious as to who is the favourite here, given the Eagles record on the field. How much can they rely on the ‘tush-push’ remains to be seen. So far, they haven’t. The fans and the commentators sure want to see more of the brotherly shove.

Hopefully, the Rams have a comeback that they so desperately need. Maybe Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp combo will wreak havoc on the opposition and break their winning streak.
