A lot can change, and strength of schedule isn’t always the best indicator of how a team’s NFL season will go, but in May, and as it stands, the Los Angeles Rams look to have a tough schedule.
Starting with L.A. residing in the NFC West, plus they’ll play some other top teams in the NFC and the AFC West, it’s a tough schedule.
Of course, injuries can happen, and teams expected to be good aren’t always that way, so we’ll see.
It’s an exciting week; I am pumped to see the schedule come out (I usually
enjoy the videos and promotions). I am hoping to maybe see the Rams head to Denver to take on the Broncos this year, so would love to know when that game is…but I’ll be patient.
We’ll see what happens.
In the meantime, it’s Tuesday, thank you for checking out Turf Show Times and have a great day!
Ranking the 7 toughest opponents on the Rams’ 2026 schedule (ramswire)
“The Los Angeles Rams are waiting to find out the dates of their 2026 schedule but have long known which teams they will play this season. As usual, the NFC West remains a gauntlet, while the conference re-arms for what should be a wide-open race for the NFC title.
The Rams also have the disadvantage of playing the AFC West next season, a division loaded with talent on paper.
While we await the full schedule release, here are the Rams’ seven toughest opponents in 2026.“
Rams schedule holds greater than comfortable risk of playing in winter’s worst (ramblinfan)
“While playing football in the snow can be a great deal of fun, compounded with traveling across the country and competing in an entirely different time zone, it puts LA at a distinct disadvantage.
Los Angeles faced Philadelphia in a blizzard not so long ago and lost that NFL Divisional Round game by a score of 28 to 22. It was a game that flashed signs of brilliance, but the snow and Eagles running back Saquon Barkley proved to be too much. Now, Rams fans hope to avoid similar circumstances in 2026.“
Ty Simpson shares ‘funny’ message Matthew Stafford sent him after draft (ramswire)
“It was funny because, of course, he was like, ‘Welcome, man. I’m super pumped,’” Simpson said Saturday, via Gary Klein of the L.A. Times. “He was like, ‘Loved watching you play, but you played for the wrong jersey,’ because he’s pumping up Georgia.”
SEC rivalries are no joke, and now Simpson is outnumbered by two former Bulldogs in Stafford and Stetson Bennett.
“So when I see him on Monday, I’m going to give him heck about that,” he said. “But it’s cool. I’m super excited, especially having him and Stetson in there, Georgia guys, and me, an Alabama guy, so I’ve got to stand up for myself.”
One Rams pick named among ESPN’s best draft fits of 2026 (ramswire)
“Say what you will about Ty Simpson as a prospect, but it’s hard to find a better fit between a quarterback and team than him and the Los Angeles Rams. He’s a good blend of pocket passer and mobile quarterback, which is exactly the type of player who could excel in Sean McVay’s offense.
Not to mention, Simpson is afforded the time to sit and develop in Los Angeles, getting a chance to learn from a likely future Hall of Famer in Matthew Stafford. That’s not something he would’ve gotten anywhere else – certainly not with the Jets or Cardinals, who were seen as his other suitors.“
