1. Eagles

As intense as last year’s meeting between the Philadelphia Eagles and Rams was, one can only imagine what the 2018 game between these two serious contenders is going to be like. While the Eagles will be a team on a mission to defender their Super Bowl title, Doug Pederson knows the Rams are going to be one of the top teams standing in their way of making that happen, and the head coach has every reason in the world to be concerned.

If there’s been anything to takeaway from the last couple of months, it would be Los Angeles is a team in win-now mode to increase their chances of winning a Super Bowl. For a team that was expected to go through a year or two of rebuilding under Sean McVay when he came on board last January, it’s amazing to see the Rams in this current position as one of the early favorites to make a serious Super Bowl run in 2018.

Taking down a team like Philadelphia won’t be easy, but Los Angeles understands the importance of what defeating the defending champions would mean. In fact, if all goes well for both teams, this could very well end up being the first of two meetings between the Eagles and Rams, with the second time possibly coming in January.
