The Los Angeles Rams have been on a tear, posting at least 10 wins in each of the last three seasons—including a standout 12-5 campaign in 2025 that tied for the fourth-most victories in franchise history. As Super Bowl favorites heading into 2026, they’re poised for another double-digit win season. But this year’s schedule? It’s a gauntlet.
The Rams kick off the season in Australia, facing the 49ers at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. That’s followed by a brutal first five weeks: the Giants, Broncos, Eagles, and Bills. There’s a brief breather mid-season, but after the Week 11 bye, the intensity ramps up again. The schedule also shines under the lights—seven prime-time games, tying an NFL all-time high, including matchups on Thanksgiving Eve and Christmas Day.
So, what will the Rams’ final record look like? We’ve broken down every game, predicting the final score for each.
Week 1: Rams vs. 49ers (in Australia)
What a way to start. The Rams and 49ers, both serious Super Bowl contenders, open the season on a Thursday night in Melbourne. While it’s technically a home game for the Rams, the neutral crowd at the Melbourne Cricket Ground offers no real advantage. George Kittle’s status for Week 1 is uncertain, but the Rams should be fully healthy. Expect a statement win over their rivals before heading back stateside.
Week 2: Rams vs. Giants
The Giants are better than many think. John Harbaugh is a proven coach, Jaxson Dart is a dynamic playmaker when healthy, and Malik Nabers is a budding superstar. Their defensive line is as deep as any in the league. The big question? Nabers’ health. Still, the Rams boast far more talent overall, and their offensive line can neutralize New York’s pass rush. Rams take this one.
Week 3: Rams vs. Broncos
Denver’s season hinges on Bo Nix in 2026, and he’s coming off a severe ankle injury. The Rams’ defense will look to pressure him early, while their offense—led by a balanced attack—should control the clock. This feels like a comfortable win for LA.
