but I'm being nitpicky here.... I think the Ram's began with some kick your ass SB hangover... then the injuries hit. Don't see any of that as being 'beneficial'... BUT...

Neither is it debilitating... not even close. What I'm getting at is:

Last season was an aberration... lot of it, maybe most, self-imposed but an aberration none the less.

Rams "should" spring back... which doesn't mean as powerful as they were in 2021 but I think it does mean VERY competitive. - JamesJM
