Historically, the Rams and Saints competed as rivals in the NFC West from 1970 to 2001. In their meetings, the Rams currently lead the all-time regular season series against the Saints 44-34. The two teams also split their postseason matchups at 1-1, adding to the tension when they face off. When hosting the Rams at home, the Saints hold a record of 18-20, while their performance on the road stands at 16-15 against Los Angeles.
The Rams, under the leadership of head coach Sean McVay and quarterback Matthew Stafford, finished the 2024 regular season with an admirable record of 10-7, allowing them to secure first place in the NFC West. After a rough opening to their season with a record of 1-4, the Rams managed a remarkable turnaround, ending the season with a five-game winning streak.
In the most recent regular season encounter between the Saints and Rams, which occurred on December 1, 2024, the Rams triumphed with a score of 21-14. The Rams showcased their strength in the 2024 playoffs, where they defeated the Minnesota Vikings 27-9 in the Wild Card Round. However, their playoff journey concluded in the Divisional Round, falling to the Philadelphia Eagles 28-22 after a last-minute drive resulted in a turnover on downs.
Looking ahead to the 2025 season, the Rams have made strategic additions to their roster. Notably, they signed wide receiver Davante Adams, a six-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro, who previously amassed 1,063 receiving yards in the 2024 season. Adams has expressed feeling “rejuvenated” with his new team, which could provide a significant boost to the Rams’ aerial game.
Additionally, the Rams’ defensive efforts have been bolstered by the exceptional play of linebacker Jared Verse, who earned the Defensive Rookie of the Year award in 2024. Verse concluded the season with 66 tackles and 4.5 sacks, ranking 14th in the NFL for edge pass rush win rate and 6th in edge run stop win rate, underscoring his disruptive presence on the field.
The Rams have also targeted their tight end position by selecting Terrance Ferguson from Oregon with the 46th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. Ferguson had an impressive collegiate career, setting a record for tight ends at Oregon with 43 receptions and 591 receiving yards. This move aims to improve a position group that recorded the lowest receiving yards in the NFL (459) in 2024.
The Saints, meanwhile, continue to prepare for a demanding season ahead, which includes crucial matchups against division rivals such as the Buccaneers, Panthers, and Falcons. In the 2024 season, linebacker Demario Davis recorded a personal best of 136 tackles, showcasing his significant defensive contributions. The Saints’ performance throughout the season included notable highlights and game recaps that displayed their competitive spirit on the field.
As both teams gear up for their encounter, fans can expect an engaging and competitive game that continues the storied history between the Saints and Rams.
