## Resource

The Los Angeles Rams kick off their 2026 NFL season with back-to-back home games against the San Francisco 49ers and New York Giants, facing significant tests after offseason defense and special teams revamps. The 49ers, under Kyle Shanahan, have dominated the Rams, exploiting weak corner play with quick underneath passes and a strong run game. The Rams secondary, featuring Mike Evans top receiver, will be pushed to show speed and physicality. The Giants bring dual-threat quarterback Jaxson Dart, who could exploit the Rams struggles against mobile QBs. If defensive coordinator Chris Shulas new pieces hold up, these games could set the Rams on track for another NFC Championship run.
