The 2019 Los Angeles Rams can not claim to be as good as they were in 2017 and 2018, but the gap in win-loss record, and potentially a road to the Super Bowl, was not very wide. In fact, you could maybe point to three plays that separate the Rams from 9-7 and 12-4.
More importantly, three plays from winning the division and getting a bye week, potentially hosting an NFC Championship game just as the San Francisco 49ers did.
The Rams finished second in DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average) in both 2017 and 2018.
