[SJ76]

Getting tickets for the game in Dallas for sure

 

[RamsFan88]

A lot easier than in past years, that's for sure.

 

[UVA_Guy81]

My early, probably optimistic prediction is 7-9.

 

[ANGELAKERAMS]

I see 1-5 to start the season

 

[Vitamike]

Getting tickets for the game in Dallas for sure

I might attend a training class in Dallas in the first week of October. (It could be the second week though)

If it turns out the Rams' game is the Sunday prior to the week of classes, I will fly in on Saturday so I can make the game too, maybe sneak in a Rangers game as well on Saturday night.

 

[zeke2829]

I see 1-5 to start the season

I think we'll do better than 1-5. An improved o-line will get us a few more wins. I'm hoping the draft will bring us a stud center and a new wide out!

 

[shopson67]

I want to be optimistic, but looking at that schedule I'm having a hard time finding more than maybe 5 wins. This team will really need to step up to get back to 7-9 bullshit.

 

[Vitamike]

Best case scenario, maybe 9-10 wins, but I think an 8-8 season would be considered a highly successful season by most.

16 Sunday, Dec. 24 at Tennessee Titans 1 p.m. Fox
17 Sunday, Dec. 31 vs. San Francisco 49ers 4:25 p.m.

Best case, we split the first 4 beating the 9ers and Skins.

That puts us at 2-2.

Then we take the Hawks at home, get past the Jags on the road, but as always, we lose in London, and go down to the Cards.

Now we are at 4-3.

We come out of the bye and lose to the Giants, but beat the Texans at home and squeak by the Vikings on the road.

We are at 6-4, and we Rams fans are excited!
(Goodness, when was the last time we only had 4 losses after Week 11?)

Then as always, when things start to finally look good, we get thumped, at home, by the Saints, but get the split with the Cardinals, and then win the show down between Wentz & Goff, but it's Gurley who steals the show as the Rams control the clock and beat the Eagles.

We are at 8-5

Beating the Seahawks would keep us in the race for the West, but we are just not ready, and go down in Seattle too much too soon for Mc Vay and his young Rams team.

We are at 8-6, and in the hunt for a Wild Card spot.

We win out and make the playoffs for the first time since 2004 with a 10-6 record!

Now that is the best case scenario mind you.

For a successful 8-8 season, we drop two more...

2 Sunday, Sept. 17 vs. Washington Redskins 4:25 p.m. Fox

16 Sunday, Dec. 24 at Tennessee Titans 1 p.m. Fox

Los Angeles is a travel destination for many across the world. However, the Los Angeles Rams will be spending a considerable amount of time on the road in 2017.

The Rams will travel a total of 32,622 miles this season, which is more than any NFL team for the second consecutive year.

Last season, the Rams traveled a total of 32,072 miles, which was more than the Bears, Browns, Packers and Ravens combined. The 2016 schedule took the team to locations such as New York, Detroit and London.

This year the squad will return to the United Kingdom for more fish and chips. A round trip flight across the pond (LAX to Heathrow Airport) is a little over 10,880 miles, which is more than the Pittsburgh Steelers will travel the entire 2017 season (7,920 miles).

*Note: The team's mileage could change. For example, the Rams take on the Jaguars before heading to London and could stay in Florida rather than returning to California. The current calculated mileage is based on round trip travel after each away game.

Regular Season Roundtrip Miles
San Francisco 49ers 676

Arizona Cardinals (London) 10,898
New York Giants 4,944
Minnesota Vikings 3,070

Ouch!!

Los Angeles Rams (2016 Record: 4-12)

2017 is shaping up to be another snooze-fest for the Los Angeles Rams, but let me say this: They did a nice job signing offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth—a veteran presence to protect the blindside of young quarterback Jared Goff.

Outside of that, I'm not sure what else to say about the team.

They lost their best wide receiver in Kenny Britt, but they did bring in former Buffalo Bills wideout Robert Woods.

Still, not enough.

This offense is shaping up to be one of the worst in the league, barring a resurgence from running back Todd Gurley.

Let's just get this over with—the Rams are screwed. And bad.

Toughest game: at New York Giants (Week 9)

Almost on par with their road trip to Dallas, the Giants take the cake for the same reason I've been preaching throughout this slideshow: They're my favorite to win the NFC East.

Their defense should gobble up Goff and stop any momentum Gurley could possibly have.

Prove-it games: both games against San Francisco 49ers (Weeks 3 and 17)

These games will be to simply prove which team is worse. That's it.

2017 record prediction: 3-13

Tough schedule, could be VERY tough depending on how our o-line plays...

2017 Los Angeles Rams game-by-game predictions
3:25 PM ET

• 
  
  Alden GonzalezESPN Staff Writer

LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Rams' featured non-NFC West games in 2017 will be against the AFC South, the only division that didn't field a team with double-digit wins last year. Their first two games will be at home. Their last game will come against a popular pick to finish with the NFL's worst record. In between are several winnable games, too. But the Rams, under an entirely new coaching staff, still have a lot to figure out internally.

Here's an early, game-by-game look at how the 2017 season could shake out.

Week 1: Sunday, Sept. 10, vs. Indianapolis Colts, 4:05 p.m. ET

One thing is pretty clear about the Rams' 2017 schedule: They'll face a lot of good quarterbacks. The first will be Andrew Luck. But Luck is coming off shoulder surgery, and Rams quarterback Jared Goff will be facing a shaky secondary. He should get off on the right foot here. Record: 1-0

Week 2: Sunday, Sept. 17, vs. Washington Redskins, 4:25 p.m. ET

Former Redskins offensive coordinator Sean McVay left to become the Rams' head coach, and soon thereafter, Washington's top two receivers, DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon, signed with other teams. Now head coach Jay Gruden has a transitioning offense on his hands. But it's still better than the one McVay inherited. Record: 1-1

Week 3: Thursday, Sept. 21, at San Francisco 49ers, 8:25 p.m. ET

Last year, the 49ers embarrassed the Rams in a season-opening game on Monday Night Football. The 49ers won two games in 2016, and both came against the Rams, the last one on the strength of an impressive comeback at the Coliseum. The 49ers, now under Kyle Shanahan, will continue to be bad. The Rams should be better against them. Record: 2-1

Week 4: Sunday, Oct. 1, at Dallas Cowboys, 1 p.m. ET

This will be the Rams' toughest test all season. Their defense should be pretty good, but new defensive coordinator and former Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips will have a hard time trying to contain QB Dak Prescott, RB Ezekiel Elliott, WR Dez Bryant and TE Jason Witten. On offense, the Rams don't have anything close to the firepower to keep up. Record: 2-2

Week 5: Sunday, Oct. 8, vs. Seattle Seahawks, 4:05 p.m. ET

Hate on Jeff Fisher all you want, but for some reason, he seemed to have some weird magic touch when it came to beating the Seahawks. It's unlikely McVay will have that same feel, simply because most coaches don't. The Seahawks' defense -- perhaps rejuvenated by the return of safety Earl Thomas -- will be a big early test for McVay's developing offense. Record: 2-3

Week 6: Sunday, Oct. 15, at Jacksonville Jaguars, 4:05 p.m. ET

The Jaguars are no strangers to offseason spending. And this offseason was no different, as they splurged on three new defensive players: defensive end Calais Campbell, cornerback A.J. Bouye and safety Barry Church. At home, they'll make life really difficult on Goff and his offense. Record: 2-4

Week 7: Sunday, Oct. 22, vs. Arizona Cardinals in London, 1 p.m. ET

The Cardinals have lost as much as the Jaguars gained on defense. Four of their top six defensive snap leaders from 2016 signed elsewhere. Coming off a disappointing 7-8-1 season, Arizona has holes all over its defense -- holes Goff can exploit in Twickenham Stadium, where the Rams suffered a heartbreaker to the Giants last year. Record: 3-4

Week 8: Bye

Week 9: Sunday, Nov. 5, at New York Giants, 1 p.m. ET

Another long flight -- though it's coming off a bye -- and another difficult matchup. The Giants feature two dynamite cornerbacks in Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and Janoris Jenkins. And now, with Brandon Marshall joining Odell Beckham Jr., the Giants have two standout receivers for QB Eli Manning. They should be pretty good. Record: 3-5

Week 10: Sunday, Nov. 12, vs. Houston Texans, 4:05 p.m. ET

The Texans won the AFC South without J.J. Watt, but they did so with a minus-49 point differential, seventh-worst in the NFL. And though Watt should be healthy again, their quarterback situation has not been resolved. The Rams will be happy to be back home. Record: 4-5

Week 11: Sunday, Nov. 19, at Minnesota Vikings, 1 p.m. ET

The Vikings -- much like the Rams -- have had to overhaul their offensive line. For a Rams defense that is led by Aaron Donald and is now overseen by Phillips, who's very creative in the ways he can pressure the quarterback out of a 3-4 base set, this is usually a good matchup. But not this time. Record: 4-6

Week 12: Sunday, Nov. 26, vs. New Orleans Saints, 4:05 p.m. ET

Rams fans have probably tried really hard to forget about this team. The Saints dealt the Rams perhaps their most crushing blow of 2016, annihilating them 49-21 in New Orleans. But the Saints have had a hard time putting pieces around aging QB Drew Brees in recent years, and the Rams should get some revenge. Record: 5-6

Week 13: Sunday, Dec. 3, at Arizona Cardinals, 4:25 p.m. ET

The last time the Rams played in Arizona, they stunned the Cardinals and improved to 3-1 to start 2016. It was the apex of their season; perhaps the apex of Fisher's tenure. The Cardinals probably won't let that happen again. Record: 5-7

Week 14: Sunday, Dec. 10, vs. Philadelphia Eagles, 4:25 p.m. ET

This will be the most highly anticipated game of the season. Goff, the 2016 No. 1 overall pick, goes up against Carson Wentz, the 2016 No. 2 overall pick. Wentz entered the NFL with more experienced coaching than Goff, and now he has something Goff still lacks: a true No. 1 receiver in Alshon Jeffery. But maybe I just have a gut feeling about this one. Record: 6-7

Week 15: Sunday, Dec. 17, at Seattle Seahawks, 4:05 p.m. ET

It's the Seahawks, at home, late in the season, when they'll probably be fighting for playoff positioning. But in Washington, McVay was a master at adjusting to exploit opponents' weaknesses, and he'll pick up a few things from the Week 5 meeting between these teams. Record: 7-7

Week 16: Sunday, Dec. 24, at Tennessee Titans, 1 p.m. ET

The Titans are coming off only their second winning season in eight years, and franchise QB Marcus Mariota was very good down the stretch. They're on the rise, and they should be a playoff contender in 2017. No early Christmas present for the Rams. Record: 7-8

Week 17: Sunday, Dec. 31, vs. San Francisco 49ers, 4:25 p.m. ET

One shot, at home on New Year's Eve, against the lowly 49ers, to capture their first non-losing season since 2006? The Rams get it done. Record: 8-8

 

[Vitamike]

Fuck that predicition

Hell to the yes! 3-13 may Ass!!

 

[Retroram52]

Well, between the 3-13 and the 8-8 predictions there is a statistical 7-9 bullshit waiting. It's statistical, I tell you!

 

[Vitamike]

Well, between the 3-13 and the 8-8 predictions there is a statistical 7-9 bullshit waiting. It's statistical, I tell you!

The '7-9 Bullshit' appellation is an inherent moniker of Fisher.

IMO, McVay is off the hook for such negative tags types.

I'm certain he will engender a few tags of his own, and hopefully after a few years in his tenure, they will all be synonymous with those of a Champion.

 

[Retroram52]

I get the distinct suspicion that McVay may be the second coming of Chuck Knox.
