In 2024, the Los Angeles Rams will have among of the toughest NFL schedules.
The Los Angeles Rams will probably do better in 2023 than they did in 2022, but they won’t have an easy time getting to the postseason this coming season.
They will face a number of formidable opponents throughout the regular season after finishing second in the NFC West.
The Rams are preparing for the 12th-toughest schedule in the league, which includes games against teams who combined for a 146-143 record the previous season, according to NFL researcher Ivan Urena.
The Rams face a difficult schedule ahead, including games against seven playoff-contending teams and eleven games against teams that finished above.500.
But why is it so difficult? Now let’s examine which games on the Rams’ schedule are among the hardest in the league:
Postseason opponents for Los Angeles in 2024 include the Lions, Packers, Eagles, Bills, and Dolphins; the Lions game will return to Ford Field in Detroit.
Based on 2023 records, the Seahawks and Cardinals have the seventh-easiest schedules in the NFL. The 49ers have a stronger schedule (.505) than the Rams, which is surprising considering they are the best team in their division.
The Rams will play the Vikings and Jets in addition to seven playoff clubs. These clubs are predicted to contend for a significant resurgence with healthy quarterbacks in the upcoming season, after missing the playoffs in the previous one.
Fortunately for Los Angeles, most of its most difficult games are played at home, which may help the team’s chances of making the playoffs in 2024.
