Which Non NFC West team will give the Rams Problems in 2015?

There is no question that the St. Louis Rams have an extremely tough schedule in 2015. The Rams will face multiple playoff teams from a season ago, but who will give them the most problems outside of the NFC West?

This is an easy decision. In week five, the Rams travel to historic Lambeau field to take on Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay packers. In 2014, the Packers went a perfect 8-0 in home games while Rodgers had zero interceptions as well. Lets face it, the only thing the Rams have going for them in this match-up is that it there be frigid temperatures.

The Rams have not beaten the Packers since the 2006 season in a game played at Lambeau field. Since then, the Packers have downed the Rams four consecutive times, all of which were by 10 or more points. Rodgers has never lost when facing off against the Rams.

Good news for the Rams is that one game will not make-or-break their season. However, any game against an NFC opponent is important, but won’t keep them from making the playoffs five weeks into a season. But, lets say the Rams do have a legitimate shot at winning this game. What will it take to pull off the upset?

Any team can win on any given Sunday correct? Well this may be that one exception, but it will take a masterful game from the running back position whether that be Tre Mason or Todd Gurley. It will also take a perfect game from the Rams’ secondary, a unit in which has never put together all of the pieces.

If the Rams defense has a weakness, it is without a doubt the secondary. Rodgers can complete passes against anybody, and the front seven won’t be able to apply pressure on every down, so it will be up to the secondary to turn touchdowns into field goals. If the Rams are able to do that, they will have an outside shot at winning this game. But, on paper the Rams stand no chance.

Final score prediction: St. Louis Rams 17, Green Bay Packers 30
