roughout the game to defeat the Denver Broncos Jared Goff Jersey , 23-20. Many Rams players missed some time across key positions as LT Andrew Whitworth, LG Rodger Saffold, DL Michael Brockers, EDGE Matt Longacre and WR Cooper Kupp all missed some plays due to injury. Overall, the Rams were still able to grind it out lead by RB Todd Gurley’s 200 yard rushing game. The Broncos did play it close, limiting the Rams to their lowest point total of the season.Here were my five Broncos to watch for the game and how they performed:EDGE Von MillerMiller was his dominant self on Sunday with five total tackles including 1.5 sacks and two quarterback hits. He and EDGE Bradley Chubb had monster games off the edge while the Broncos totaled five sacks on the day.At the end of the game Samson Ebukam Jersey , Von Miller showed Grandpa some love by saying he misses him. It seemed all of the star defensive players miss Wade.....Let the speculation begin of which Broncos players are suiting up for the Rams......QB Case KeenumKeenum, former Rams “top-ten by some metrics” quarterback, had a good game overshadowed by some key mistakes. In close contest as the Broncos boast the number one offense in terms of yards per carry, the Broncos decided to throw 41 times compared to the 17 rushes on the day. Keenum finished the game with a 60.6 QBR on 25/41 passing with 322 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. RB Phillip LindsaySurprisingly Josh Reynolds Jersey , the Broncos rushing attack was quite limited. The team had 17 rushing attempts (including a kneeldown) as both rookies Royce Freeman and Phillip Lindsay struggled to get going on the ground. Lindsay however, did do some damage in the air as he totaled six catches for 48 yards. LB Todd DavisThe inside linebacker had a tough day with Todd Gurley getting off for 200+ yards. Davis still managed to finish with six total tackles and pass defended. He and LB Brandon Marshallhad a rough day in limited the Rams rushing attack but can use this game as a positive as the Broncos limited the Rams to their lowest point total of the season.WR Emmanuel SandersSanders tore up the Rams in the contest. Targeted 10 times, Sanders finished the game with seven receptions for 115 yards (leading the game), along with a touchdown. The only blemish in the game for Sanders was drawing a taunting call after what seemed to be a touchdown. After the review showed that Sanders was just short of the goal line, the ball was placed on the 16 and the Broncos ended up with three points instead of the touchdown.Sanders caught his 500th career reception and looks to build off another strong game. Welcome to SB Nation FanPulse — a survey of fans across the NFL, powered by SurveyMonkey. Each week John Johnson Jersey , we send 32 polls to plugged in fans from each team. Los Angeles Rams fans, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.Week 1 FanPulseWeek 2 FanPulseWeek 3 FanPulse - confidenceWeek 3 FanPulse - game predictionWeek 4 FanPulseWeek 5 FanPulseWeek 6 FanPulseWeek 7 FanPulseWell the Los Angeles Rams are halfway through the 2018 season now and remain perfect at 8-0. So obviously, we’re in line for some accolades at the midpoint.But perhaps Rams fans will be disappointed at the results of our NFL-wide FanPulse vote.Right now, the MVP race goes to Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes over Rams RB Todd Gurley and QB Jared Goff:And Defensive Player of the Year? Fans give that one to Chicago Bears EDGE Khalil Mack over Rams DL Aaron Donald by a slim margin:Well I say boo.More heartening is that fans back Rams Head Coach Sean McVay to repeat as Coach of the Year:One thing we’re doing this week across SBN NFL sites is looking at the difference between fans’ expected scores and the actual ones. For most teams, there are some wiiiiiiide jumps mainly because fans are relatively conservative. Even for the 8-0 Rams, there are plenty of games where we thought we’d win but ended up wrecking like Week 2 and Week 7. Then there were games like Week 5 Gerald Everett Jersey , Week 6 and Week 8 which were much closer than anticipated.One thing that’s interesting this week? For only the second time this season, fans of the Rams’ opponent, being the New Orleans Saints for Week 9, think their team is going to win.Odds: pick ‘em/Rams +1.5Turf Show Times FanPulse: Rams by 3Canal Street Chronicles FanPulse: Saints by 5The other time a fan base thought their team would beat the Rams?Oakland Raiders fans at Silver and Black Pride who had the Raiders winning by 3 in Week 1 which is interesting because they’ve overestimated their team all year long:Maybe something to worry about? Saints fans at CSC have nailed it since coming off of the bye...As always, thanks as always to the TSTers who are voting to give us the data each week!
