Rams Win on the Road

It had been over a year since the St. Louis Rams had won a road game in the NFL. This post is a little late but that's exactly what happened on Sunday afternoon as the Rams knocked off the Denver Broncos 36-33.

Denver got up early in the game by a 10-0 count and seemed to have things under control. But, rookie quarterback Sam Bradford started hitting passers to his wide outs and the Rams were up at half.

The Rams were up at one point by a 36-20 score, before the Broncos started picking apart a Rams defense that had lost it's aggressiveness. But, on the last series of the game the Rams forced Denver into a 4th and 16 situation that the Broncos could not get out of and the game ended.

I thought the play of rookie WR Danario Alexander and defensive players James Laurinaitis and Chris Long was outstanding. The Rams are now 5-6 and tied with Seattle for 1st place in the NFC West. Sure, it's a lame division, but the Rams already have four more wins than they did all of last year and with a couple of breaks this year could have three more wins. Let's Go Rams!!!
