The Rams are one of the hottest teams in the league and are storming toward a Wild Card spot at 7-7 and with four wins in their last five games.
The defense is also now sixth in points allowed per game (19.1), but again, they have not faced stiff competition recently. They beat the Panthers and Giants the last two weeks, and Derek Carr just had his first three-touchdown game of the season. The Saints are tied for the lead in the NFC South at 7-7 thanks to two straight wins, though it’s important not to overreact.
