Cooper Kupp had a rough opening half vs. the New Orleans Saints, with a few drops in the end zone and miscommunication with Matthew Stafford. But the Los Angeles Rams still went into the locker room up double digits Thursday night.
Last season, the Rams probably would have been down by 10 points, searching for their first touchdown and in need of healthy offensive linemen.
But these Rams are different from the 5–12 team from last season. They’re also drastically different from the 3–6 squad earlier this year. The Rams (8–7) are rolling behind a red-hot offense and an underrated defense, as they defeated the Saints, 30–22, to get one step closer to returning to the postseason.
