Summary
Early on this season, the Los Angeles Rams looked like a juggernaut, with Matthew Stafford leading them to a 7-1 start, and gaining some momentum as a contender for MVP. Then, the Rams lost three in a row, suddenly raising a lot of questions about just how good this team is. Ahead of their Monday Night Football matchup with the Arizona Cardinals, we check in with The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue to look at how three high-profile additions for L.A. (Stafford, Von Miller, Odell Beckham Jr.) are working out, and whether this team has what it takes to become a Super Bowl contender.
