Los Angeles Rams' Predicted Win Total Doesn't Match 2023's Success

The Los Angeles Rams' 2023 season was a bounce back campaign from the year prior, and they hope to continue that trend in 2024.

The Los Angeles Rams have had a roller coaster of a couple of seasons.

A 12-5 record and a Super Bowl win in 2021 for Los Angeles was followed by a 5-12 mark and third-place finish in the NFC West in 2022. Last season was a rebound year with a 10-7 record and a return to the playoffs after a one-year absence.

What will 2024 bring?

DraftKings Sportsbook released their projected over/under win totals for the upcoming NFL season, and the Rams' have a predicted mark over/under of 8.5. Los Angeles is joined by the Bears, Browns, Colts, Jaguars, Chargers, Steelers and Buccaneers with the same projected win total.

The Rams' other NFC West foe, the Seattle Seahawks, is listed at over/under 7.5 wins alongside the Saints, while the Cardinals are grouped with the Commanders, Vikings, Raiders, Giants and Titans at over/under 6.5 wins.

Per DraftKings, the teams with the best-predicted win totals are the two participants in February's Super Bowl, San Francisco and Kansas City, and the loser of last season's AFC Championship game, the Ravens.

The two teams projected to have the NFL’s worst records are the Panthers and Patriots, at over/under 4.5 wins.

It'll be an interesting season at SoFi this year with the Rams welcoming in some new faces in quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, safety Kamren Curl, corner Darious Williams and others, while saying goodbye to offensive tackle Jonah Williams, guard Tremayne Anchrum Jr. and safety Jordan Fuller to name a few.

Coach Sean McVay and Co. look to improve on last year's Wild Card appearance with a deeper run in 2024.
