The Los Angeles Rams are a professional American football team based in the Greater Los Angeles area of California. The Rams have competed in the National Football League (NFL) since 1937, one year after their formation in Cleveland, Ohio, as a charter member of the second incarnation of the American Football League. [1] The team moved to Los Angeles in 1946 where they became the city's first professional sports team. [2] They first played their home games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum before moving to Anaheim, California, in 1980, where they played their home games at Anaheim Stadium. [3] The Rams moved to St. Louis, Missouri, in 1995, and remained there for two decades until they returned to Los Angeles after the 2015 NFL season. [4] Currently, they are members of the Western Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) and play their home games at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. [5] [6]

The Rams have won four league titles, two of which (1945 and 1951) pre-date the existence of the Super Bowl. The fourth and most recent championship was Super Bowl LVI, the team's most recent Super Bowl appearance. [7] [8] The Rams' four championships are tied for the tenth most total championships amongst all 32 NFL franchises. [9] With their victory in Super Bowl LVI, they became the third franchise to win multiple Super Bowls representing two cities after the Raiders and Colts. [10] They are also the only franchise to win championships representing three cities. [6]

As of the end of the 2024 season, the Rams have an all-time record of 624 wins, 606 losses, and a 21 ties in the regular season, with an additional 27 wins and 29 losses in the playoffs.
