No team scored fewer points than the Rams in Week 1
After leading the NFL in points a season ago, the Rams are currently last in scoring so far in 2026.
The Los Angeles Rams experienced their lowest-scoring Week 1 in league history, trailing all 32 teams in points scored. In a 27-7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, the Rams managed only seven points, the fewest they've ever recorded in Week 1 under head coach Sean McVay. This marked a stark contrast to their dominant performance last season, where the Rams led the NFL in scoring and total yards.
The Rams' 290 total yards in Week 1 ranked 19th in the league, but it was their defensive mistakes that proved costly. They turned over the ball twice, committing an interception in 49ers territory, a fumble at their own 39-yard line, and turning it over on downs after Matthew Stafford was stopped on fourth-and-goal from the 1. While the Rams are unlikely to finish near the bottom of the league in scoring, their Week 1 performance was a stark reminder that even the best teams can struggle in the early stages of the season.
