#4: Los Angeles Rams

The two teams had a brush with each other in the regular season and it became one of the most exciting games of 2018. Both boasting electric offenses headlined by star quarterbacks. Philadelphia emerged victorious despite losing Carson Wentz for the season, but the Rams made it clear they were not in awe of the eventual champs.

One can say that while the Eagles remain formidable, Los Angeles is probably the most improved team of the offseason. They added Marcus Peters, Aqib Talib, and Ndamukong Suh to their defense in a matter of weeks. That’s a lot of star power that should be able to match up with anything Philly can throw at them. Proof again a year can make a huge difference.
