In this series, we recount every game that the LA Rams played last season as a way to remember important context and to get a feeling for how the returning players and coaches could respond to what went wrong in 2020. And what went right.
But 31 of 32 NFL teams will have a loss that ends their season and it’s important to remember that even though the Rams lost to the winless Jets in Week 15, a win almost certainly wouldn’t have changed where LA finished in the NFC West standings. Just as important as it is to remember that even though the Rams also lost this final chance to stay alive for a division title, losing to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16 did nothing to stop LA from beating the Seattle Seahawks when it mattered most two weeks later.
