Rams Take Pride in Leading NFL in Takeaways

Even Case Keenum can joke about the improbable way Sunday’s Vikings-Rams matchup has unfolded. “I think one of my friends said it, ‘Just like everybody predicted. Case Keenum with the 7-2 Minnesota Vikings going up against the 7-2 Rams,'” said Keenum, the Vikings’ quarterback.
