Subsequently, an agreement was reached to play internationally through 2025. The computers are reading the people better than Tom Brady reads a Rex Ryan blitz. Make the NFL better at serving so many masters on Thursday night and Sunday and Monday night.
Not only will facing the Panthers be tough, but it could be the game that really proves to the NFL that the Rams are the real deal. Case Keenum passed for three touchdowns and ran for another, but an interception in the final minutes ruined a comeback attempt as the Rams fell to 3-3 with a loss to the host Lions. Keenum set a team record with 19 straight completions on 27-for-32 passing with 321 yards. Tied with four seconds remaining in the first half, the Rams failed to take the lead as Todd Gurley was stopped short of the goal line as time ran out.
AFC West (away): Denver Broncos
In the 1970s, the league had plans for an Intercontinental Football League, including teams in Munich and West Berlin. The IFL was never more than a proposal, but they presented a 1976 summer exhibition between Texas A&I and Henderson State from Berlin’s Olympiastadion, which was built for the 1936 Olympics. The league said there were 3 million requests for tickets for the 70,000-seat stadium for this year’s game in Germany, a testament to the rabid following there. While much of the league’s international efforts have focused on London in recent years, the NFL has maintained a relationship with Germany for decades. On pace for a fifth consecutive losing season, the Falcons (5-8) are turning to the future with rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder replacing veteran Marcus Mariota. The Panthers (5-8) started the season 2-7 but have won three of their last four to inch their way to within one game of first place in the dreadful NFC South.
• Katrina Bowl II. Ten years after the refurbished Superdome opened in 2006 with a historic game that launched the rebirth of the Saints on a Monday night in Week 3, Atlanta visits New Orleans in Week 3 on a Monday night. I hope Steve Gleason, who had the blocked punt heard ’round Louisiana in 2006, is on hand for the rematch, a decade later. In total, the Los Angeles Rams 2016 Schedule includes two nationally televised games. The Rams play a Thursday Night Football game on December 15th in Seattle against the Seahawks. There wasn’t really much point in beating around the bush before getting to this game.
Monday night vs. Packers slated to be Rams' coldest game in 30 years
This marked the end of the Los Angeles Chargers', Los Angeles Rams' and Oakland Raiders' annual commitments, with all three moving to new stadiums in 2020. Platooning quarterbacks isn't something Kansas City has to worry about unless you're talking about backup Chad Henne getting mop-up duty. That's precisely what the model expects, as it has Henne coming on in relief of Patrick Mahomes in a blowout. The Chiefs are projected to win by at least two touchdowns, and thus winning straight-up in almost 80% of simulations.See which other teams to pick here.
Wide receiver Kenny Britt caught seven passes for 136 yards and two scores, all season highs. Safety Lamarcus Joyner had eight tackles to lead the Rams, while Aaron Donald had four tackles and a sack. The 14-team format means that 43.75 percent of the NFL's teams will make the playoffs. That includes four division winners in each conference and three wild cards. Same as it was for years with Philip Rivers, the Chargers (7-6) have a big-time quarterback but just can’t win with regularity.
Why did the NFL expand the playoff field?
The difficulty of the 2 vs. 7 game could change from year to year, but it still appears that the No. 2 seed has a bigger advantage over its opponents than would the Nos. 3 and 4 seeds. Sporting News is here to break down the NFL playoffs for those that need a refresher on how they work. Quarterback Tom Brady and the Buccaneers beat the Seahawks in that game, with Brady calling it “one of the great football experiences” of his career. Meanwhile, the AFC West was supposed to be a four-team juggernaut but only the Chiefs are playoff-bound at the moment.
In all three cases, the teams playing after their International Series game are based on the East Coast of the United States and will either be home or (in the Jaguars' case) playing in East Rutherford, New Jersey. In 2018 and 2019 all teams once again received their bye immediately following their international game, including the teams who played in Mexico. The Rams offered little resistance on the road against the eventual Super Bowl champions, which held visiting Los Angeles to just 162 yards in total offense. Jared Goff completed 14 of 32 passes for 161 yards, was intercepted twice and sacked four times.
Game history
Each designated home team receives US$1 million for giving up the home game. There’s a good chance the Cardinals could win the division again, and also a chance that they may have their seed already decided for the postseason. But either way, the Rams coming into this game with home field advantage and a full head of steam, as well as a playoff berth on the line, would make for a great regular season finale of the inaugural season in Los Angeles. Greg Zuerlein kicked four field goals, but the Rams were undone by numerous mistakes in a home loss to the Bills. Case Keenum passed for 271 yards, but was intercepted twice and sacked four times.
The defense is great, ranking fourth in points, but Wilson-led offense is averaging a league-worst 14.9 points per game. The Buffalo Bills received a unanimous vote of approval to play a series of regular and preseason games at Rogers Centre in Toronto from 2008 to 2017. This was separate from the regular International Series as arrangements are made by the team as opposed to the league as with the International Series. The Bills' Toronto Series was mutually terminated after the 2013 contest. The Colts said they’d like to defer their bye from Week 5 (Oct. 9) to Week 10 (Nov. 13). So Indianapolis will play in London on Oct. 2, then at home with the Bears on Oct. 9.
The NFL's playoff schedule for 2023 will be provided once the matchups, times and TV channels for each contest are available. Additionally, the extra playoff spot in each contest keeps teams alive in the postseason race longer. In turn, that keeps the fan bases of middling teams interested as the season continues. It also gives teams that get off to slow starts — like the 2022 Lions — a better chance to turn it around and make a legitimate playoff push. NFL teams played their first-ever regular-season game in Munich, Germany at Allianz Arena, home of FC Bayern, on Nov. 13. The NFL announced five international games in May for the 2022 season, including three games in London, one game in Germany and one in Mexico.
It was also the first time the Rams scored a regular season touchdown as the Los Angeles Rams since 1994. This was the only game all season that the Rams scored at least 30 points. Just three days after being named interim head coach, John Fassel led the Rams into their final road game of the season. The Rams offense continued to sputter under the direction of offensive coordinator Rob Boras, with only a Greg Zuerlein field goal late in the second quarter averting a shutout. Jared Goff completed 13 of 25 passes for 135 yards and was sacked four times.
With the return of controversial quarterback Deshaun Watson to pair with dominant running back Nick Chubb, perhaps the Browns will break away for that third-place finish. The success of the International Series has led the NFL to focus its global expansion aims on the possibility of having a full franchise located in London. The NFL has used some of the specific arrangements for the International Series games as a test bed for predicting how a London franchise could be made effective from a logistical and competitiveness standpoint. The Los Angeles Rams 2016 Schedule for the regular season kicks off in San Francisco against the 49ers and concludes at home against the Arizona Cardinals.
On November 25, 2015, the NFL announced that the Rams would play host to a then-undetermined NFC East opponent in the International Series, in the first-ever game at Twickenham Stadium in London, United Kingdom. On January 3, 2016, the New York Giants were confirmed as the Rams' opponent for this game, both teams having finished in third place in their respective divisions in the 2015 season. The kickoff time was announced on April 14, and both teams had their bye the following week. As a condition of the Rams' use of the Coliseum, the University of Southern California requested that the NFL not schedule any Monday night home games at the stadium, nor any home games on days after USC football games. While the team's final schedule did not contain any home Monday night games, two games were played on days following an USC home game.

The Rams' 2016 season came to an end on the first day of 2017 with yet another listless performance that capped off the franchise's 10th straight losing campaign. Kicker Greg Zuerlein provided the Rams' only scoring once again with field goals of 37 and 36 yards in the second quarter. Arizona quarterback Carson Palmer, who won the Heisman Trophy while playing at USC, had a successful day in his return to the Coliseum, passing for 255 yards and three touchdowns as the Cardinals scored 28 unanswered points in the second half. Offensively, quarterback Jared Goff completed 13 of 20 passes for 120 yards, but was sacked a season-high seven times.
