Why LOL?
They are so far and away better than anyone in the NFC right now. Even in the game they lost, they scored 40+ points.
They run it well. They pass it well. And the defense is playing better but that’s not even an issue seeing as the offense takes so much pressure off the defense.
The Rams defense has been toasted several times now, including by the Saints. It’s their conference to lose.
It was good for the NFL and the LA area for the Rams to win. The place was packed, the ceremony for First Responders, etc. I wanted the Chiefs to win but left with a smile for the folks in LA.
My theory is that Phillips is sandbagging the defense until playoff time. Notice last night Rams were in man coverage not zone where they suck eggs this year. Peters is a zone specialist and he’s been getting burned a lot. Rams defense won last night’s game IMO Mahomes is GREAT so there is that too.
