6. Rams in Los Angeles, a bust in Season 2?
The Rams had anything but a glorious and harmonious relocation to the west coast in 2016. It was supposed to be all glitz and glam for a team that went through multiple hurdles to land Jared Goff with the first pick in last year’s draft.
That did not work out so swell. Goff only started in the team’s last seven games. Sadly he went 0-7, completing 54.6 percent of his passes for five touchdowns and seven interceptions in the process.

Overall, the Rams won only four games in 2016 with Case Keenum under center.
By mid-December, head coach Jeff Fisher was finally removed of his duties. But it was not just one bad season for Fisher. Under his leadership since 2012, the Rams never won more than seven games in any season. In addition to this, Fisher-led teams never finished better than third in the division.
Prior to the Fisher era, the team featured five head coaches since 2004. That marks the last year the franchise saw a postseason berth. For now, the Rams surely have their work cut out for them with a first-year head coach and an unproven starter under center.
