1. Another double-digit win

What’s more impressive than the Rams beginning the year with a 3-0 record while sitting on top of the NFC West with a comfortable two-game lead? The fact that each win so far by the Rams has come by double-digits, that’s what.

Keeping this trend throughout the 2018 season won’t be the easiest of tasks, but also shows just how talented of a team the Rams have on both sides of the football. Even during Sunday’s game when Goff was on fire once again, the defense came through with a surprise score of their own after blocking a punt in the end zone, which coincidentally came after a key interception by the Chargers that resulted in them taking over at the one-yard line.

Three wins by double-digits is never an easy task, no matter how good a team is, but this is just one of many reasons why expectations are so high surrounding the Rams when it comes to being a top Super Bowl contender. Defeating the Vikings by double-digits won’t be an easy task, but also this team could be vulnerable following their recent loss to the Bills, meaning the Rams could work this to their advantage to possibly increase their impressive streak to four games.
