The Los Angeles Rams need to take advantage of playing in the Coliseum for the only time in October.
Heading into their second home game of the season, the Los Angeles Rams look to add another win and increase their record to 4-1 with a key matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Few would have thought that the Rams would be 3-1 at this juncture of the season having defeated the two NFC West front-runners, the Arizona Cardinals and Seattle Seahawks.
This game will be the only true home game the Rams will have in October when considering their Week 7 game against the New York Giants will be played in London. Thus giving the Rams only two games at the Coliseum in the first seven weeks of the NFL season. They must take advantage of being at home on Sunday against the Bills, as their hungry fan base is starved to watch their team at home.

Aside from the Week 1 debacle, the city of Los Angeles could not have asked for a better start to the season. The Rams have jumped out to their best start in years and have allowed the city to fall in love with them, which is a huge relief since many fans seemed turned off by their opening loss to the San Francisco 49ers. However, with the Rams sitting atop of the NFC West after three-straight wins, the loss has seemingly been forgiven as the team, whether in Los Angeles or St. Louis, is not accustomed to being in this position.
So can the Rams take advantage of this early season success and continue to amass wins? Only time will tell if they can continue to win.

If they can continue to play as they have in the first quarter of the season, the fan base will assuredly continue to grow, making the Coliseum one of the toughest places to play in the NFL.
Making the playoffs is always a tough task in the NFL. Most successful teams view winning home games as their No. 1 goal, and as everyone knows, Los Angeles has been waiting 22 years to have an NFL team.
The Rams needs to hold up their end of the move by giving the city and its fans a winner. If they can do this, the team could give Los Angeles more than they could’ve dreamed of in a playoff team.
When you think about it though, it makes sense. After all, isn’t Hollywood where the stars shine brightest and all of your dreams come true? The Rams and all of their fans sure hope so.
