  • Based on preseason odds, the Los Angeles Rams are -115 to make the postseason in 2024-25.
  • Since Sean McVay’s first season, the Rams have made the playoffs in five of seven seasons.
  • Can Los Angeles overcome their weak defense to notch another playoff appearance?

Based on NFL odds and Rams playoff odds, the Los Angeles Rams are predicted to make the postseason this year. 

The Rams, who fell in last year’s wild card round to the Lions, are -115 to make the playoffs this year. That price implies a 53.5% probability. 

On the other side, Los Angeles is -105 to miss out on the 2024 postseason, an implied probability of 51.2%.

Prediction: Will the Los Angeles Rams Make the Playoffs? 

I predict the Rams will miss the playoffs this year. 

History tells us wild card teams are the most likely to fall out of the postseason year over year. Although I love the Rams’ offensive ceiling, their defense could finish amongst the worst in the league. 

Plus, this team played more like a 9-8 team last year, thanks to three wins in four games decided by three or fewer points.

When Was the Last Time the Los Angeles Rams Won the Super Bowl? 

The Rams’ most recent Super Bowl win came in the 2022 season over the Cincinnati Bengals. 

That marks one of two Super Bowl crowns for the Rams in franchise history. The second came in the 2000 Super Bowl in miracle fashion against the Titans.
