Which traits define the Rams DNA and what could potentially swing their season.

Los Angeles can win more than one way. The offense grades at 88.0, the defense is at 85.4, and the roster gives the Rams enough answers across the board.
Secondary StrengthBig-Play Ability
Los Angeles can change a game in one snap. The 90.5 Explosiveness grade makes big plays a real part of the Rams' identity.
Swing FactorLong-Term Direction
The bigger question is where Los Angeles is headed. A 77.5 Franchise Direction grade leaves the Rams with important decisions ahead.
PFM ReporterLos Angeles Rams: QB Depth Chart Sets the Tone
Stetson Bennett and Ty Simpson are the names to watch in the Los Angeles Rams backup quarterback race. For the Los Angeles Rams, the bottom half of the depth chart is where small concerns can become real ones.
For the Los Angeles Rams, add the rating and the picture gets clearer. With Matthew Stafford in place, the Los Angeles Rams are No. 2 on the board with an 89.08 public PFM score after they moved up 0.80 points. The Los Angeles Rams offense sits at 88.00 and defense at 85.42, so the more useful comparison is Recent Performance leading while Franchise Direction trails.
My read: the Los Angeles Rams look like a championship-level team. Recent Performance is the part I trust most, while Franchise Direction still needs to catch up. That is the difference between liking the Los Angeles Rams roster and fully trusting it. For now, the Los Angeles Rams read is positive with one clear caveat attached.
PFM RatingsWhat the PFM Numbers Say
PFM has Los Angeles at No. 2 with a score of 89.3. The team sits in our Super Bowl Contender tier. Inside the NFC West, the Rams are No. 2. PFM sees a fairly even team on both sides of the ball: 88.0 on offense and 85.4 on defense. If you want to know what this team does best, start with Explosiveness at 90.5. That is the biggest reason for the Complete Contender archetype. The quarterback situation looks solid with Matthew Stafford. Los Angeles carries a 86.0 QB Stability grade, No. 3 in PFM.
The recent results back up the rating. Recent Performance sits at 88.5, No. 4 in PFM. There is still a 13.0-point gap between the best and worst grades, so the roster is not as balanced as it needs to be. Franchise Direction is the biggest concern at 77.5. The short-term talent may be better than the long-term plan.
