NFL Power Rankings Week 10 Rank: 29

We couldn’t do a roundup without including our own expert’s opinion. The Week 10 version of FanSided’s power rankings by Dan Parzych listed the Rams at No. 29, down five spots from last week.

Here’s the lowdown:

"The frustration from fans over Jeff Fisher still being the head coach of the Los Angeles Rams may hit an all-time high after the team’s suffered their fourth loss in a row, falling to the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. Between the struggles at quarterback to having one of the league’s weakest receiving corps, the Rams offense looked flat-out awful against the Panthers as it took Case Keenum until the final minute of the game to find the end zone for the first time. If there’s anything to take away from this loss, it would be Keenum doesn’t deserve to play quarterback in the NFL as the veteran seems incapable of running any offense. There’s a reason why Keenum has only crossed the 300-yard mark twice in his career and fans are frustrated to the point where they want to see Jared Goff take over the starting role. Keenum was originally handed the starting job at the beginning of the season as Fisher believed he gave the team their best chance of making the playoffs. Obviously, that is far from the case as Los Angeles will be lucky if they can even break the .500 mark by the end of the season."

Great analysis here on the Rams’ offense as a whole. Keenum isn’t playing well by any stretch, but he isn’t helped by mediocre receivers and a bad offensive line. To make matters worse, Todd Gurley has been nearly non-existent this season.

To say this offense is a mess would be an understatement and there is nothing Goff can do to fix it.
