Over the first 6 games [Rams] went 4-2, scoring an average of 23.3 PPG and allowing 18.3 PPG (+5 PPG) vs a winning percentage of .526.
Over the last 7 games we’ve gone 6-1 scoring an average of 34.0 PPG, while allowing 16.7 PPG (+17.3 PPG) vs a winning percentage of .527.

Seattle opponents so far have a .431 win pct.
Their 4 game finish has a .666 win pct.
I think they’re good…..you don’t get to 10 wins being a sissy team…..but I don’t think they’re nearly as good as the Rams. I could see the Seahawks losing 2 more.

37.5% of the Rams offensive plays result in a first down or touchdown in the red zone (1st).
On average, those converting plays are happening at the earliest rate in a series across all teams. pic.twitter.com/fON8PQlS2b

Interesting to me…..
…every year we look at the schedule….or an opponents schedule…..and determine how difficult it is going to be. And then the games are played and everything changes. What looked like an easy schedule, might not be and vice versa.
The Rams schedule prior to opening day had a winning percentage of .491. Not easy, not real difficult. Since 75% of the games have been played the Ram schedule is .515. The strength of schedule for the teams the Rams have already played is .526.
So facing a fairly stiff schedule, the Rams have gone 10-3. That ought to speak to how good this Rams team is right now. And they’re getting better.
Over the first 6 games we went 4-2, scoring an average of 23.3 PPG and allowing 18.3 PPG (+5 PPG) vs a winning percentage of .526.
Over the last 7 games we’ve gone 6-1 scoring an average of 34.0 PPG, while allowing 16.7 PPG (+17.3 PPG) vs a winning percentage of .527.

znModeratorInteresting numbers on the Rams and Lions since the QB trade.
Wright is crazy in that. He said that if Stafford had stayed the Lions could have won a super bowl by now. The Lions got a lot out of that trade, not just Goff. It wasn’t only hiring Campbell…they had a lot of talent on the field in 2023 and 2024.

Sean McVay says Tutu Atwell will be activated for Sunday’s game vs. LionsDecember 10, 2025 at 5:02 pm in reply to: rams striving for perfection–Rams benchmarks this season #160090znModerator…the Los Angeles Rams have been great in the red zone, both on offense and defense.
Sean McVay’s squad leads the NFL in red zone touchdowns (38) and is tied for third in red zone touchdown conversion rate (66.7%). Defensive coordinator Chris Shula, meanwhile, has coached a defense that allows the second-fewest red zone touchdowns (17) and second-lowest red zone touchdown conversion rate (42.5%).
Things get better, though, when you include first down conversion rate inside the 20-yard line.
The Rams led the NFL on both sides of the ball, too. L.A. converts a first down or scores a touchdown on 37.5% of its offensive plays while allowing a first down or touchdown on only 20.4% of the team’s defensive plays

The Rams offensive line has not allowed more than one sack in nine consecutive games, the longest active streak in the NFL and three more games than the next closest team (6-game streak).znModeratorSo, what is the Rams major flaw this year? What can derail them?
I saw Mina saying they have issues with Big Wide Recievers like AJ Brown.
Is the secondary subpar? Below average without Lake?

vI would not say it’s subpar or below avg. without Lake, but it’s also not a strength.
Obviously though Detroit and Seattle will be the big tests.
