Here’s a look at the 2016 NFL Power Rankings Week 5 with the Los Angeles Rams coming off a big road win against the Arizona Cardinals.

For the third-straight week, the Los Angeles Rams are climbing the 2016 NFL Power Rankings for Week 5.

What the Ram accomplished on Sunday against the Cardinals was nothing short of amazing as Jeff Fisher’s squad held on for the 17-13 win, despite a close scare towards the end of the game. While the defense came up big with a stellar performance by keeping Carson Palmer and the offense in check for most of the game while recording five turnovers, it was Brian Quick who came up big for Los Angeles on offense after finishing the game with two catches for 69 yards, both of which went for touchdowns.

The three wins by the Rams may seem ugly at times from a statistics standpoint, but this team deserves plenty all of the respect in the world for turning their season around following that disastrous performance in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. With Sunday’s win, Los Angeles made a major statement when it comes to being a legitimate threat in the NFC, and this team has every reason in the world to believe they can overtake Arizona and the Seattle Seahawks for the NFC West title.

At 3-1, take a look at where the Rams currently stand compared to the rest of the league in the 2016 NFL Power Rankings for Week 5.
