Seven from Sunday: Los Angeles Rams stats vs. Seattle Seahawks 1 nail-biter against the Seattle Seahawks (2-3) in Week 5. Here are seven stats from Sunday:The Rams improved to 5-0 on the season with the win in Seattle on Sunday. The Rams are now 10-1 in games played outside the Coliseum under Sean McVay. Dating back to the 2017 season Womens Rob Havenstein Jersey , the Rams have now won five consecutive road games. This stretch marks the sixth time in franchise history that a Rams team has won five straight road contests. The last time it was accomplished was in 2001, when the Rams won all eight of their road games. With the Monday night game yet to be played, Todd Gurley leads the NFL in rushing touchdowns through Week 5. He tallied two 2-yard rushing touchdowns and one 5-yard rushing score on Sunday.

AND YOU GET A GOOD SEASON!CDTShareTweetShareShareSB Nation FanPulse results show fan bases continue to refill the wellspring of optimismPhoto by Jason Miller/Getty ImagesWelcome to SB Nation FanPulse — a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the offseason, we send 32 polls to plugged in fans from each team. Los Angeles Rams fans, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.The cycle is inescapable.Every year, three forces push NFL fan bases to refill the wellspring of optimism as they head toward the regular season.First is the sheer power of the parity the NFL offers. This isn’t the NBA, a league dominated by the weight that its superstars provide (see: the 2018-19 Toronto Raptors). In the NFL http://www.theramslockerroom.com/authentic-john-kelly-jersey , teams can turn things around on a dime with a good offseason. So fans of teams that struggled mightily last year don’t have to be tied to that performance once the offseason comes rolling in.Second is how most media cover the offseason. It’s nearly impossible in nearly all NFL situations to gauge which players or coaches are going to underperform based on the offseason program. So instead of any analysis that lines up with outcomes, we get the kind of coverage we’ve been accustomed to since...well, forever. Player A looks fast. Player B made a nice catch. Great breakup from Player C. Who knew Player D was so athletic? This is the modern-era NFL. Every single one of these humans are insanely physcially gifted. And so what you get with offseason reporting is a litany of plaudits and compliments and praise that never gets balanced out with what would otherwise be an appropriate level of criticism or reprehension. For two and a half months, fan bases are told repeatedly how good players are looking.The third factor at work is who is feeding the media so much of this praise. It’s the team itself. Every team goes through free agency and the draft. Every team has a plan for how they want to invest in those periods. Every team believes in their plan. Not every team’s plan will work. In fact, several won’t. Many free agents won’t fit. Many rookies will bust. But if you only ask the team who selected those players, they’re not going to tell you why it won’t work. They’re only going to buy into their own reasoning. So coupled with the media’s impossible job from OTAs on, you’ve got another layer of repeated positive reinforcement. Coaches are really impressed with this rookie! Players who have been with a team for years are really excited about how well this new free agent is fitting in!Those three factors every year take over every fan base to pull the entire rooting NFL world into a state of optimism. That isn’t to say every fan base thinks their team is going 14-2. Instead, what you get is a conditioned sense of optimism given the constraints each team is facing.And yet again Womens Troy Hill Jersey , our FanPulse results show this at work.Our most recent polling asked fans whether they thought their team would win more or less games than their over/under as set by Westgate. While you can tell where this is headed, let’s rewind a bit just to set the stage.Every week during the 2018 season, we asked fans whether they were confident in the direction of the team. Heading into Week 1 of the regular season, 30 of 32 fan bases polled 80% or higher in their confidence. tier.For 23 teams, more than 75% of their fan base is taking the over. That’s about 3⁄4 of the entire NFL hitting the over. You don’t have to be conversant in any advanced mathematical theory to recognize that that doesn’t match up with reality. The odds we used had 21 teams with an over/under of at least 8 wins. Every fan base took the over. There aren’t going to be 21 teams with winning record. And it’s not just teams with high o/u’s.The Denver Broncos’ o/u is 7.0. 86% of Broncos fans took the over.The Detroit Lions’ o/u is 6.5. 91% of Lions fans took the over.The Buffalo Bills’ o/u is 6.5. 96% of Bills fans took the over.For the Los Angeles Rams, we had an incredibly high o/u of 10.5. The only team with a higher one was the New England Patriots at 11 wins (only 1% of Pats fans took the under...). 95% of Rams fans took the over. That’s the power of the cycle. Don’t blame Rams fans for being uniquely close-minded. The New Orleans Saints and Kansas City Chiefs also had a 10.5 over/under. Their fan bases clocked in at 92% and 88%, respectively.The cycle is indeed powerful.Here’s hoping we’re one of the few teams who end up on their other side of it with reality coming anywhere close to the aspirations that get fed into it.
