The Los Angeles Rams suffered a painful defeat against The New England Patriots in the highly anticipated Super Bowl this week with 13-3 in favor of the Patriots. With their risky decisions that cost them the championship, sports analysts and fans are already questioning if their efforts were worth it and what could be the future for the team.
Sports analysts cannot deny that majority of people are expecting The New England Patriots to beat The Los Angeles Rams and Tom Brady will have his record-tying sixth Super Bowl. It was also noted in the game that the defensive record book was rewritten by Brady's team performance, according to an article published by The Salt Lake Tribune.
The win of The New England Patriots against The Los Angeles Rams also cemented Brady's effort as the oldest winning quarterback in a Super Bowl at the age 41. Patriot's coach Bill Belichick also became the oldest winning Super Bowl coach at the age of 66.
Sports analysts also said The Lost Angeles Rams was never really the perceived threat to The New England Patriots. So how can the team ensure that the public will think they are a force to be reckoned with?
In an article by Patrick Holloway of Niners Nation, all hope is not lost for The Los Angeles Rams. He said The Rams can still have their chance in having the trophy through draft picks.
However, Holloway said The Los Angeles Rams would face difficulty in keeping up with other rival teams Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers for the dominance in the NFC West.
This year, The Los Angeles Rams had the first, fourth, fifth, and sixth-round pick in the draft. Some sports analysts described their decision to have the first draft as "overrated" and said it was a gamble for the team's future chances in getting to the Super Bowl.
The Los Angeles Rams is also facing the problem of $34 million cap space for this year and how they will use it for their 11 draft picks. Still, Holloway said the team can still get out of this problem if some of the 11 draft picks can replace who they will have to move on from after 2019.
Clearly, Holloway noted, the NFC West isn't the big problem of the Los Angeles Rams. However, the team will face difficulty in keeping up with the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers when the two teams have more options at their disposal.
