The Rams not only are losing on the field, they can’t beat other NFL teams in the television ratings in their own city.

According to Nielsen, which tabulates viewership figures, the Rams have lost out in the ratings in their home market of Los Angles to two other games in each of the last two weeks.

That’s something nearly unheard of during their previous 21 seasons, when they were based in St. Louis.

Last Sunday, when they blew a 10-point lead with just over four minutes left and lost 14-10 at home to Miami, Nielsen says approximately 8.7 percent of homes in the LA market were watching. That trailed the Washington-Green Bay game shown later in the day (9.9 rating), as well as the earlier Dallas-Baltimore contest (9.4).

The previous Sunday, the Rams drew a 9.1 rating in Los Angeles for their 9-6 victory over the New York Jets — their only win in their last six games. Later that day, Seattle-New England had a 12.7 rating there and Dallas-Pittsburgh drew an 11.9 figure.

The Rams’ 10 games thus far have averaged a 9.5 rating in Los Angeles, which is worse than any of their games — not seasons — drew in St. Louis when the team was based here.
