The highly-anticipated rematch of the 2024Â regular season in Detroit is set to mirror the thrilling wild card showdown. For Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, returning to his former home adds extra emotion and motivation. With Rams fans hoping for a win this go around, the clash promises intense action and a compelling storyline.
According to USA Today, the Los Angeles Rams have the 12th-toughest schedule in the league.Â

With newfound financial flexibility and draft capital, the Rams are poised to strengthen their roster for the first time since their Super Bowl LVI run.
