After suffering their second loss of the season to the Buffalo Bills in Week 5, the Los Angeles Rams have to be feeling the frustration over their play at quarterback from Case Keenum.

Originally, Keenum was seen as the short-term answer at quarterback due to his veteran experience until Jared Goff was comfortable enough to handle the starting role, but things haven’t gone according to plan over the first five games. Los Angeles may be sitting right below the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC West standings with a 3-2 record, but some of the performances by Keenum have been average at best.

Unless Keenum miraculously turns things around over the next few games, Jeff Fisher may want to strongly consider replacing his veteran with Goff to see if it will provide a boost to the passing game. At this point, any quarterback would seem like a major upgrade over Keenum when taking a closer look at his numbers not just from this season, but his career.

Don’t think so? Well, here’s a closer look at five reasons why the Rams should strongly consider benching Keenum, and give Goff a chance as their starter at quarterback since the veteran has been anything but impressive so far in 2016.
