14. Los Angeles Rams (17)

For a team with all sorts of issues on the offensive line throughout the regular season, the Rams have every reason to be thrilled over seeing how great the unit looked Sunday night in the win over the Chicago Bears.

When taking into consideration that Andrew Whitworth was the only starter from Week 1 as a result of numerous injuries, the Rams seemed like they were going to be in for a rough outing when facing the elite defense of the Bears.

Instead, the surprise impressive play from Los Angeles on the offensive line should make Jared Goff feel much more comfortable heading into Week12 for what will be another tough challenge against the intense defense of the Baltimore Ravens.

On another note, it’s about time Todd Gurley looked like his old self for the first time in what seems like forever after the Rams running back did an incredible job at wearing down the defense of the Bears by finishing with 97 rushing yards on 25 carries.

Los Angeles looked like anything but a playoff team a week ago, but after this big win over Chicago, maybe the Rams can heat up at the perfect time towards the end of November.
