Rams Super Bowl chances hinge on 3rd down success
Rams 3rd down history suggests they need a 40% conversion rate moving forward…
The Los Angeles Rams have a history of success in the NFL, with a 30-13 record when they convert third downs at a rate of 40% or higher over the past five seasons. In contrast, their overall record drops to 19-24 when their third-down conversion rate falls below 40%. This statistic becomes even more significant when considering their performance in the playoffs, where teams that convert third downs at a respectable clip have a .700 winning percentage, while those that struggle on third downs tend to be sub-.500.
Looking ahead to next season, the Rams must find consistency in their ability to move the chains, as they currently rank 26th in the league in third-down conversion percentage (22.22%). To secure a Lombardi Trophy, the Rams must improve their performance on third downs week-to-week.
