Here are three key takeaways from the Los Angeles Rams 38-31 win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4.

Between some of the injuries along with playing on a short week, nobody really knew what to expect from the Los Angeles Rams heading into their Week 4 meeting with the Minnesota Vikings, but once again, the team came through in a big way. When looking at how both the Rams and Vikings were early favorites in the NFC to make a run at the Super Bowl, it was easy to understand why there was so much excitement surrounding this game since the chances of these two teams meeting once again in January seemed high.

In what ended up being a game that lived up to the hype while proving to be a tough battle, Los Angeles was able to hang on for the 38-31 win over Minnesota to improve their record to 4-0 on the season. Heading into the 2018 season, the Rams knew the month of September was going to be a tough one with key meetings against teams like the Vikings, and Los Angeles Chargers, but also could benefit the team with three games at home.
