The Los Angeles Rams went into the season with the highest expectations for the franchise in more than a decade and a half. Starting out 4-0 capped with a huge Thursday Night Football win, the Rams have delivered on that promise. A masterful performance from QB Jared Goff has the Rams perfect at the quarterpole. Now, they head out on a three-game road swing atop the power rankings and instead of living up to the hype now having to deal with the reality that they've lived up to it. 3k, Rob-o and Joey run through the outputs from Week 4 and how things shape up around the league as the Rams head into the second quarter of the season.

Fight for LA? Well, the Rams and Chargers fought and the Rams won thanks largely to the efforts of the offense led by QB Jared Goff. With the "system QB" putting in the best game of his career, the offense absolutely dominated the game and got just enough from the defense to get the 35-23 win. The game did come at a cost, though. CB Marcus Peters, CB Aqib Talib, KR/PR JoJo Natson, DL Dominique Easley and LT Andrew Whitworth were all reportedly injured in the game and expected to join ILB Mark Barron and K Greg Zuerlein on the injury report. So the Rams are going to have to lean on the depth in the weeks ahead as well as that headlining offense. Breaking down the game, 3k, Rob-o and Joey go through everything and look to Thursday as the Minnesota Vikings come to town. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The 2-0 Los Angeles Rams are facing their toughest competition yet with the 1-1 Los Angeles Chargers coming up the 110 to the Coliseum on Sunday in Week 3.

The crew also looks at the injury to K Greg Zuerlein, assertions that QB Jared Goff is a "system QB," and looks up and down the power rankings with the Rams sitting at #1 or #2 in nearly all of them.
