When your 4-0, and scoring points in bunches, the blemishes are hard to find. If you’re a Los Angeles Rams fan, blemishes probably don’t mean much anyway.

But they do have them.

However, on the whole the blemishes pale when compared to how good the Rams are. If anyone who has been a critic, and I have been, doesn’t see how absolutely special this team is and at how high a level the offense is functioning, they’d be blind.

It’s impossible to watch LA and not be impressed at how good this team is four games in to the 2018 NFL season.

I picked the Rams to go 2-2, winning handily against Oakland and Arizona, but being mpre equal in games against the Chargers and Vikings. Fact is, Los Angeles has shown improvement on the offensive side of the ball each and every game, and coaches McVay and Phillips continue to tweak as needed to keep the Rams in the win column.

Looking back at the first four games, September sets an agenda that makes it clear October could have a similar result. So long as the Rams can avoid any further injuries to front line players, they could hit November in rare form and potentially undefeated.

The Los Angeles Rams have hit all the marks needed to launch a Super Bowl run, and show no hint of coming back to the pack, at least not anytime soon.

Overall grade for September: A.
