Rams went 2-5 vs. other playoff teams, and 10-0 vs. everyone else.
Green Bay: 5-1 vs. playoff teams, 8-3 vs. all others
Tampa: 4-1 vs. playoff teams, 9-3 vs. others
Dallas: 3-4 vs. playoff teams, 9-1 vs. others
Arizona: 5-2 vs. playoff teams, 6-4 vs. others
San Francisco: 4-4 vs. playoff teams, 6-3 vs. others
Philadelphia: 0-6 vs. playoff teams, 9-2 vs. others
Now, you can say the Rams underperformed vs. playoff teams. Yeah, that's fair. They should have held on and won Sunday. No question. Did they also overperform a bit vs. all non-playoff teams? Going 10-0 maybe so. They beat four bad teams in JAC, HOU, DET and NYG. But they also went 5-0 vs. SEA, IND, BAL and MIN (with 4 of those on the road). Their overall strength of schedule was 16th according to Football Outsiders, 17th on Pro Football Reference and 9th according to ESPN's FPI. So they did not have a cupcake 2021 schedule.
