The Los Angeles Rams have won six of their last eight games following Sunday’s impressive 44-42 victory over the Buffalo Bills and are now over .500 at 7-6 following their dismal 1-4 start.
People are starting to take notice, and quarterback-turned-analyst Dan Orlovsky recently made a bold statement about this team’s future.
On Monday morning’s episode of First Take, Orlovsky made a bold statement, saying, “When (the Rams) are healthy, they can win the whole thing…if you’re Detroit or if you’re Philadelphia, you better pray that this offense doesn’t get into the playoffs.”

Orlovsky said he wouldn’t declare the Rams a top-5 team in the league and added, “When it’s Kyren Williams, and Puka (Nacua), and Cooper Kupp, they score about 30 a game…They can beat anybody.”
This game set records as the two teams combined for 86 points and over 900 yards of total offense with no turnovers or sacks.
It was a shootout in every sense of the word and enough to convince Orlovsky that this team could beat anybody.
This could be true after wins over the Bills and Minnesota Vikings in recent weeks.
The team also put up strong fights against the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers early in the year despite being banged up.
The Rams are turning into true sleepers in the NFC and are still alive in the NFC West race with three of their final four games against division rivals.
Everyone knows you must bring the heat on First Take, and that’s exactly what Orlovsky did on Monday morning.
