3 reasons Rams can repeat as Super Bowl champions next season
By John Buhler
The Los Angeles Rams should have every reason to believe they can repeat in Super Bowl 57.
The Los Angeles Rams are Super Bowl champions and have every reason to think they can repeat.
While repeating in the NFL is so incredibly difficult, as the last team to do it was the 2003-04 New England Patriots, the Rams have so many good things going for them where repeating is actually a strong possibility. Though the AFC has several strong teams heading into next season, one would think the Rams are favored to get to Super Bowl 57 in Glendale, Arizona out of the NFC.
Here are three reasons it is not too crazy to think the Rams can repeat as Super Bowl champs.
Los Angeles Rams: 3 reasons they can repeat as Super Bowl champions next year
3. Winning the Super Bowl in Los Angeles is massive for prospective free agents
Stan Kroenke continues to win big on his decision to move the Rams back to Los Angeles from St. Louis. Not only did he get to build a football cathedral in Inglewood, but his franchise got to win the first Super Bowl being played at SoFi Stadium. Let’s be real. We cannot put a price on the Rams being Super Bowl champions and calling Los Angeles home for prospective free agents.
While the Rams typically do not have a full allotment of draft picks, general manager Les Snead would rather use future compensation to get his team a proven player to win now. How do you think the Rams ended up with the likes of Jalen Ramsey, Matthew Stafford, Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr.? More importantly, the cachet this team will have in free agency will be undeniable.
Yes, the taxes are brutal, but the weather is great and playing for the signature franchise in the second biggest metro area in the country should have marquee free agents very intrigued. Not to say free agents will take a discount to come play for the Rams, but them being champions in Los Angeles certainly makes them one of the premier free agency destinations entering the offseason.
If the core remains intact, the Rams will be a destination team for many star veteran playmakers.
