Take a look at the 2016 NFL Power Rankings Week 7 with the Los Angeles Rams coming off a disappointing loss to the Detroit Lions.

Make that two weeks in a row for the Los Angeles Rams falling in the 2016 NFL Power Rankings for Week 7.

With a career day from Case Keenum in which the quarterback recorded four total touchdowns, all signs pointed to the Rams getting back on the winning track with an important road victory against the Detroit Lions. Instead, the defense of Los Angeles had zero answers when it came to stopping Matthew Stafford as Jeff Fisher‘s squad picked up their second loss in a row to drop to 3-3 on the season.

For just the second time in his NFL career, Keenum broke the 300-yard passing mark after completing 27 of 32 passes for 321 yards. When considering the lack of offense from Keenum for a majority of the season, this was the best surprise the Rams could have asked for on Sunday as they hoped to keep close with the Seattle Seahawks in the division.

Obviously, that didn’t go according to plan as Los Angeles allowed Stafford to throw four touchdowns in the game.

So what does Sunday’s loss mean for the Rams in this week’s rankings? Well, here’s a look at where Los Angeles stands at 3-3 with the rest of the league in the 2016 NFL Power Rankings for Week 7.
