Los Angeles Rams. 29. team. 51. Los Angeles was placed in a terrible position this week after firing Jeff Fisher prior to a short week going into Seattle. The decision to trade up for Jared Goff looks to be a horrible one early on for the Rams, especially with Carson Wentz and Dak Prescott performing well. With no first round pick, Los Angeles could have trouble luring in a flashy coach to replace Fisher. Holes on the offensive line have prevented Todd Gurley from breaking off major runs, evident by him averaging less than three yards a carry against the Seahawks. A demoralizing loss to the division opponent Seahawks doesn’t help the Rams down the stretch. <p>Next Week: Chip Kelly and the 49ers make the short trip to Inglewood for a game expected to be nearly unwatchable. Jared Goff has the opportunity to win his first NFL game against a 49ers defense that has allowed the most yards per game to opposing offenses. Will that alone be enough to push the Rams over the hump for their first win since an embarrassing 9-6 game against the Jets?</p> <p>Draft talk: No first round pick means the Rams will be inactive for the early portion of this years NFL Draft. With little ammunition to make a move into the first round, Los Angeles will focus on drafting interior offensive linemen and cornerbacks in the later rounds.</p>. 4-10. Previous:
