The Rams are members of the West Division of the National Football Conference(NFC) in the National Football League(NFL).

The Plan

The plan I have for the St. Louis Rams is to create a better, more well known team. Last year, the team’s record was 7-9. With the new star players and new coach, the team should be able to fill the stadium and possibly win their division.
