Even though the Rams finished third in the NFC West last season, their schedule this year isn’t easy – especially for a team with such low expectations. In addition to facing the Eagles, who won the NFC last season, the Rams will take on the Bengals, who represented the AFC in Super Bowl LVI.
The Cowboys, Packers and Ravens are also on their schedule, making for a difficult slate of games. The Rams aren’t exactly a team that’s projected to contend for a Super Bowl, but anything is possible in the NFL.
The start to the year won’t be easy for Los Angeles, facing the Seahawks and 49ers in the first two weeks, but the end of the season gives them a chance to sneak into the playoffs if they can hang around .500 in the first nine weeks or so.
