* - The Rams' game against the Giants will be played in London, England, October 23
It's an interesting set up for the Rams' first season since moving back to Los Angeles.
The pre-bye run doesn't lean on any home advantage; just two of the Rams first seven games will be in Los Angeles. That doesn't bode well for a Rams team that has struggled mightily to get off to good starts under Head Coach Jeff Fisher.
And post-bye? Not any easier kicking things off against Super Bowl runners up Carolina with three of the next four thereafter on the road.
The rarity is that they can lean into a late-season push with three of their final four at home.
More to come. Stay tuned.
