Rams' ridiculous TD-to-punt ratio has L.A. on record-setting pace Cameron DaSilva Johnny Hekker is one of the best punters in the NFL as a four-time first-team All-Pro and four-time Pro Bowler.

Rams' offensive line ranked best in the league by PFF, zero sacks allowed Andrew Ortenberg The Los Angeles Rams have started the season 5-0, and one of the biggest reasons why has been the lights out play of the offensive line.

Broncos coach Vance Joseph on Rams: 'This team can embarrass us' Cameron DaSilva On paper, this Rams-Broncos matchup in Denver looks like a lopsided one. Los Angeles is favored by seven points, leads the NFL in total yards and ranks sixth in points allowed. The Broncos, on the other hand, are 27th in scoring and allow the ninth-most points per game in the league. Everything points toby Rams43 - RamsFootballFans.com

Love reading these reports, Alyo. I don’t always offer comments because I have nothing with which to disagree in most cases. Lol. I do have a small nitpick with one thing from your list today. 9) You have to scout tight window throwing. You can do it against most teams, but some teams? You better not.

Here’s Avenger Ram... TWAS BAD DRAFTING KILLED THE BEAST (OR... HOW THE SEAHAWKS CAN BE A CAUTIONARY TALE FOR THE RAMS) I've heard the same analysis from many commentators...

Wade’s D has allowed 85 points total in last 3 games combined. And 62 of those were in the last 2 games. I’m a huge Wade fan, but those numbers are unsustainable.
