2026 Power Rank: 1st     2025 DVOA: 2nd     2026 Schedule: 28th   2026 O-Line: 3rd   Offseason: 15th

Through week 15 of '26 the Rams had won 20 of it's last 26 games & was the Super Bowl favorite before the defense regressed toward their Championship Game loss. They were #2 in DVOA & are the Super Bowl favorite for '26 after adding LB Garrett & CB's McDuffie & Watson, fortifying a weakness. So the #10 defense should be better to compliment the '25 #1 offense supported by the #3 O-Line & QB Stafford's accent to the NFL's best. TD stud WR Adams' health could be pivotal.  We bet them as Super Bowl finalists with Cincinnati, 57-1.

Coach Macdonald maneuvered his chess board perfectly, ascending to #1 in defense & #3 in offense with outstanding seasons from QB Darold & RB Walker. They have won 14 of their last 15 games. But Super Bowl teams lose good players & they have to adjust to losing Walker & both starting CB's Bryant & Woolen. No easy task given the tough NFC West and their 11th toughest NFL schedule. The mediocre O-Line is also a concern. We think this team regresses some with so many new key pieces lost. But it will be hard to keep this team out of the playoffs. 

2026 Power Rank: 9th      2025 DVOA: 10th      2026 Schedule: 8th      2026 O-Line: 7th   Offseason: 9th

What does QB Purdy have to do to get credit? 2023: #1/#2 in QBR/YPG, 2024: #7/#6 in QBR/YPG, 2025: #2/#7 in QBR/YPG. Despite key injuries they finished 10th on offense & #20 on defense. An aging team, they addressed issues at WR adding Evans & Kirk to budding young star Pearsall. WR Aiyuk is a bust. A top 10 O-Line & a top-10 easiest schedule bodes well. If the defense rebounds this team is dangerous with top end coaching/talent & is well-seasoned for a playoff run with 4 Rams/Seahawks games. Consider the 19-1 Super Bowl odds. 

2026 Power Rank: 31st    2025 DVOA: 27th    2026 Schedule: 32nd   2026 O-Line: 23rd   Offseason: 31st

23rd in scoring & 29th in defense in '25 which lowered their win total from 8 to 3. Brissette (14 games) ranked 24th/16th in QBR/RTG, not bad on a weak offense where WR Harrison has been a bust. The quality running game failed & sank to 31st. Murray is gone along with most big name stars. New coach Lefleur is in. We are not behind the #1 pick at RB on a bad team - so bad on paper that only the Dolphins could make them look good. If rookie QB Beck starts they should get the #1 pick in the 2027 draft given their toughest league schedule in '26.
