Rams looking for improvement against easier schedule in 2010

By Bud L. Ellis

Out of the 32 teams in the National Football League, the St. Louis Rams will face a schedule ranked 31st in difficult in 2010.

That gives the Rams, who won just one game in 2009, plenty of hope for the new seasons. The NFL has revealed the game dates and times for the upcoming campaign.

Defending NFC West champion Arizona comes to town Sept. 12 for the season opener. Following a visit to Oakland, the Rams will be at home for four of the next six games, leading up to the bye week Nov. 7.

That stretch starts at home vs. Washington on Sept. 26, followed by a home game with Seattle. The Rams then go to Detroit, return home to face San Diego, head to Tampa Bay and play host to Carolina.

After the bye, St. Louis opens the second half at San Francisco, plays host to Atlanta, and travels to Denver to wrap up November. The December schedule kicks off with two road challenges: at Arizona and at Super Bowl champion New Orleans. The home schedule wraps up with games against Kansas City and San Francisco, and the season concludes with a trip to Seattle.
