The Rams' slow starts/late season surges have been very noticeable in the past two years.

In both campaigns, the team fell 3 games below .500, only to surge to 10 wins and playoff births. By the numbers, the team posted a 6-9 record before Halloween, and a 14-5 record after, in 2023/24.

The biggest reason for this was early season injuries, particularly on offense.

Another reason, though, was likely the learning curve inherent in incorporating rookies into the lineup. While some hit the ground running with individual success, it takes time to gel as a unit.

While I can see a few starting spots that might be filled by rookies next year, I think the Rams are poised for a bit more continuity going into 2025. Hopefully, that (and good health) will allow the Rams to log some early season wins and contend, not only for a playoff spot, but for a bye and home field throughout the NFC playoffs.

Absolutely agree. Things are going to be better overall. The Rams are poised for an amazing SB window which got blown wide open last season. :D

Rams have shown they can come back from a bad start. Two years in a row. But I'd like to see them get off to a good start and maybe earn a couple rounds of home field advantage. I think we have a shot to beat Philly without a snow day.
