2. Seahawks

When taking into consideration the Seattle Seahawks have only missed the playoffs one time during the Russell Wilson era, this will be the toughest competition for the Rams within the division.

After earning one of the Wild Card spots in the NFC playoff picture last year before coming up short against the Dallas Cowboys, the Seahawks actually look much better as a team when compared to a year ago.

Does this mean that Los Angeles should feel concerned about Seattle swooping in for the division title to prevent the Rams from finishing on top for a third year in a row?

As much as Rams fans don’t want to hear it, the Seahawks are the last team that Los Angeles can afford to sleep on since their previous experience on top of motivation to win the division could very well cause problems for Los Angeles over the next few months.

No matter what the circumstances, the Seahawks always find a way to make it difficult for the Rams each time these two rivals square off.

So when Los Angeles faces Seattle in October and December, no one would be surprised if these turns out to be two of the tougher games from the schedule.
