The LA Rams didn’t post a winning record from 2004 to 2016 but they’ve now finished above .500 in three consecutive seasons. That’s the first time they’ve done that since 1999-2001. Prior to that, it didn’t happen since four in a row from 1983-1986.
In both cases, the Rams fell below .500 (obviously) for one season and then bounced right back.
In 1987, LA went 6-9 and missed the playoffs, but then they went 21-11 over the next two season with two trips.
In 2002, St. Louis went 7-9, but then 20-12 over the next two seasons with two trips.
