LA Sports: Five greatest teams of the 2010 decade
By Jamaal Artis
#5 2018 Los Angeles Rams 13-3 (.813)
The 2018 Los Angeles Rams won their second consecutive NFC West title playing a high scoring brand of football while also having one of the most dominant force on defense in the league.
The Rams offense was led by quarterback Jared Goff and running back Todd Gurley. The team finished second in scoring offense (32.9 ppg).
On defense, Aaron Donald was the most disruptive force with 20.5 sacks on his way to being named NFL Defensive Player of the Year.
The Rams started the season 11-1 before two straight losses threatened to derail their dominance. After righting the ship, they finished the season with two straight wins going into the playoffs.
The Rams dominated the Dallas Cowboys in their first playoff win since 2004. The Rams totaled 273 rushing yards in a 30-22 win.
Next, the Rams win the NFC title coming back from a 13-0 first-quarter deficit to beat the New Orleans Saints in the road 26-23 on an overtime game-winning 57-yard field goal from Greg Zuerlein.
Unfortunately, the Rams ran into the dynastic New England Patriots in Super Bowl LIII and lost 13-3 in a terrible defensive game.
