    Hey, not a bad jump from where they were after the SF game…

    What was it, 31st? One notch above Cleveland?

    Is JT still in charge of parade coordinations? May be time to think about getting some marching bands and firetrucks tentatively scheduled.

    Its media inflation because they are in LA.

    The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

    Sprinkles are for winners.

    For me, this is the first time since?, Fisher’s first year that the Rams have exceeded expectations. Almost every player is doing well. I won’t mention the run game.

    I won’t mention penalties either.

    I don’t like this. All this moving up. Nope, don’t like it one bit. We’re treading on thin ice here. Foreign territory.

    Move us back to 31. Cleveland territory. That way we can sneak up on people.

    As RFL used to say back in 99…it’s better if we are laying in the weeds.

    Good job.

    Here’s what some of them are saying.

    17. Los Angeles Rams (3-1, LW: 22)
    The one optimistic thing you can say about the Rams offense is Todd Gurley can’t be this unproductive all season. He has had some tough matchups. The line blocking for him isn’t good, and defenses won’t respect Los Angeles’ passing game, but Gurley is too good to be averaging less than 3 yards a carry. That will change.

    16th

    2016 record: 3-1
    Week 4 ranking: No. 24

    6-2: There are five quarterbacks who have posted a 6-2 record since Week 14 of last season: Ben Roethlisberger, Russell Wilson, Alex Smith, Kirk Cousins and … Case Keenum. He might not be doing a lot, but he’s doing enough.

    14th

    At 3-1, the defense is carrying this team. But at some point, you have to score more points.

    12. LOS ANGELES RAMS (18)

    After Week 1, I thought this was the worst team by a mile. Now they look pretty good. Clearly, I know nothing.

    The Pro Football Focus Power Rankings represent how every NFL team ranks overall to this point in the season, based on PFF’s grading of every player on every play of every game. It factors in offense, defense, and special teams, but does not factor in coaching and scheme, which may result in some teams playing better than the sum of their parts. It does not take into account things like team record, injuries or playoff odds, and is a measure of a team’s performance at this point of the season.
