13. Los Angeles Rams (4-3)

Recap: The Los Angeles Rams desperately needed a win in Week 7 after coming into the contest on a three-game losing streak, and Sean McVay’s squad took care of business. With a 13-3 lead going into the second half, the Rams offense came alive for a pair of touchdowns in the third quarter, staking Los Angeles to a commanding 27-3 lead that the Atlanta Falcons weren’t able to overcome thanks to their ineptitude on both sides of the ball.

Outlook: The Rams now sit at 4-3 on the season but have a hole to climb out of in the NFC West with losses to both the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers. The questions about the sluggish start to the 2019 season for the offense will be quieted down for now, although the Rams came alive against a horrid defense in Atlanta. Los Angeles should be able to get a winning streak going in Week 8 thanks to a matchup with one of the NFL’s worst, the Cincinnati Bengals, at home.
