The Los Angeles Rams spent the 2026 offseason reinventing its defense. LA has done a complete 180 and taken their secondary from a point of weakness to a formidable strength. Out are Cobie Durant and Ahkello Witherspoon; in are Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson.

After their well-intentioned maneuvers over the last few months, are the Rams now deeper on defense than their usual strength of offense?

We know Los Angeles has Super Bowl hopes and are attempting to maximize the remainder of Matthew Stafford’s career. While the top 11 players form one of the best offenses in football, under the...

The preseason may not count in the standings, but for the Los Angeles Rams, the 2026 exhibition slate could play a major role in shaping another Super Bowl pursuit. With expectations sky-high entering the season, Sean McVay and his staff will use the team’s three-game preseason schedule to evaluate young talent, solidify depth battles, and prepare a veteran-heavy roster for one of the toughest regular season schedules in football. The Rams will open preseason play on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs before returning home to face the New Orleans Saints at SoFi Stadium. Los Angeles will then wrap...

Fans will be getting a healthy dose of the Los Angeles Rams in 2026, but the NFL completely whiffed on the timing of several high-profile matchups. Cramming both Rams-Seahawks games into two of the final three weeks was only the beginning of the league’s scheduling chaos this season.

The NFL lost its mind not only waiting to schedule the first Rams-Seahawks game in Week 16, but also making L.A. visit Seattle on a short week. These teams played in a pair of thrillers in the Emerald City — games that were decided by five points, mind you — and this...

I’m taking a risk by writing this before the official schedule drop, but are you happy with the drop? Did you enjoy the social media video(s)? There was a video right!??! Was there more than one video? Which team handled their schedule release the best?

You don’t have to answer any of these questions, but I asked them anyways!

I know many fans are not thrilled about all the international games, and I think you are allowed to feel that way. In theory, it’s nice the Rams get their international game out of the way in Week 1, and then...

Every NFL season begins with optimism, but expectations surrounding the Los Angeles Rams feel especially high entering 2026. With a roster built to compete immediately, a franchise quarterback still playing at a high level, and a young core continuing to develop, the Rams once again appear positioned to challenge in the NFC. Of course, the path back to contention will not be easy. A demanding 18-game schedule features several playoff contenders, difficult road environments, and critical divisional matchups that could ultimately define the season. Here is a complete game-by-game prediction for the Rams’ 2026 schedule and how their season could...

The 2026 schedule release has finally arrived, and with it comes a clearer picture of the road ahead for the Los Angeles Rams. From primetime matchups and cross-country travel to divisional battles and potential playoff implications, the Rams’ path this season is filled with both opportunity and adversity. Sean McVay’s squad appears poised to contend once again, but the schedule presents several stretches that could test the team’s depth, durability, and consistency. While there are favorable portions that could help build momentum, there are also difficult challenges that may shape the outcome of the Rams’ season before the postseason race...

The 2026 schedule is now available for the Los Angeles Rams. They’ll face one of the toughest slates in the upcoming season.

By the time the team’s Week 11 bye rolls around, we will know who the 2026 Rams are. They’ll need to be performing at a high level in order to find their way through the gauntlet after that point. Their closing stretch is the most brutal part of their new schedule.

Week 12 vs Green Bay Packers (Thanksgiving Eve)

Week 13 vs Kansas City Chiefs (Thursday Night Football)

Week 14 at San Francisco 49ers

**Week 15 vs Dallas...

The NFL stacked the defending NFC champion Los Angeles Rams’ schedule with high-stakes matchups at the beginning and end of the season to maximize intrigue across the league.

The Rams open the 2026 season in Melbourne against the San Francisco 49ers and close the year with two games against the Seattle Seahawks in their final three weeks.

Last season, it felt inevitable that either the Rams, Seahawks, or 49ers would represent the NFC in the Super Bowl, a three-way rivalry ultimately decided by only a few points in the NFC Championship Game.

Do you like the Rams having an opportunity...

The Los Angeles Rams will be the NFL’s second-most-traveled team during the 2026 season, trailing only the rival San Francisco 49ers. While L.A. will rack up plenty of air miles, being well-traveled does not appear to affect a team’s success or playoff chances as much as you might expect.

According to Bookies.com’s Bill Speros, the Rams are set to travel 34,847 miles this season, which will begin with a trip to Australia in Week 1. For reference, the distance from Los Angeles to Melbourne, Australia, is just over 7,900 miles, so hopefully the players pack plenty of snacks beforehand.

The Los Angeles Rams having to give up a home game to travel across the world in Week 1 to face the San Francisco 49ers in Melbourne, Australia has been called the worst case scenario for Sean McVay. Given that disadvantage, then perhaps an extra day of rest and a home game against the New York Giants to follow is the “best case scenario” under those circumstances.

The Rams are rumored to be hosting the Giants on Monday Night Football in Week 2, which John Breech of CBS Sports called the “best case scenario” because L.A. will have slightly more...

The Los Angeles Rams are expected to be playing a game the day before Thanksgiving, a league first. Then, there should be another game on Christmas Weekend as L.A.’s schedule looks to be a festive one as the die-hard fans are going to have to plan their holidays around some Rams action.

Of course, many teams and fans will have this happen as well as nothing stops NFL games, not even holidays. So, this season could be a good one, and the holidays could be all the more joyous, if the Rams (or your team) can win.

It’s a lot...

When the Los Angeles Rams drafted Ty Simpson, they targeted a player who was praised for quick processing and a high football IQ within an offensive system at Alabama that is considered more complicated and “pro style” than other programs. However, we have a clear example of a recent first-round pick who came out of the same system and had far more college experience running it: Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr.

If Simpson ends up being as good as Penix, did the Rams make the right decision with the 13th overall pick?

That is the most important question at hand...
