The 2021 season was the Los Angeles Rams' 84th season in the National Football League (NFL), their 85th overall, their 55th in the Greater Los Angeles Area, the second playing their home games at SoFi Stadium and their fifth under head coach Sean McVay.
The Rams improved upon their 10–6 record from the previous season after a win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 16, and clinched their second consecutive playoff berth the same week. Despite a Week 18 overtime loss to the San Francisco 49ers, the Rams won their division for the first time since 2018. They advanced to the NFC Championship after defeating the Arizona Cardinals in the Wild Card round and the defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers 30–27 in the divisional round, where they faced their divisional rival San Francisco 49ers, winning the game 20–17 and advancing to Super Bowl LVI to be played at SoFi Stadium, becoming only the second team ever to participate in the Super Bowl in their home stadium. The Rams won their second Super Bowl overall, defeating the Cincinnati Bengals 23–20 to win their first Super Bowl since 1999, and also won the franchise's first title (including pre-merger) as a Los Angeles-based team since 1951, in addition to the first Super Bowl title won by a California-based team since the 1994 49ers, and fourth overall. Coincidentally, in order to do so the Rams had to get past the Buccaneers, who were the first team to accomplish the feat. Unlike the Bucs, however, the Rams, despite playing in their home stadium, were the designated visiting team, as the league alternates between the two conferences annually. The team shares the stadium with the Chargers, who were designated as the Super Bowl host.
This was the Rams' first season since 2015 without quarterback Jared Goff on the roster, as he was traded to the Detroit Lions in exchange for Matthew Stafford.[1]
