The LA Rams were able to stay unbeaten with a nice win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2.

Coming into Week 2, one of the top matchups of the weeks was the LA Rams against the Philadelphia Eagles. This was a close spread in Vegas, but the game was far from close.

The Rams ended up winning by a comfortable margin, and both the offense and defense looked very good. Even though the Rams had a disappointing season last year, this is still a team that has a lot of the same key players from their Super Bowl. So far, those players are performing well for the Rams.

On the offensive side of the ball, the balance for the Rams was great. The Rams almost rushed for 200 yards in the game, with Darrell Henderson leading the way with 81 rushing yards. The strong rushing attack made things easier for Jared Goff and the passing game, as he was very efficient in the win.

Goff ended up totaling 267 passing yards and three passing touchdowns in the comfortable victory.

On the defensive side of the ball, the Rams defense once again looked good. The Eagles only scored 19 points in the game, and just three in the second half. While the Eagles were able to protect Wentz better than expected, they did force him into throwing two interceptions.

In addition to forcing two interceptions, Miles Sanders also fumbled the ball once, but did get nearly 100 rushing yards.

Getting the win for the Rams puts them in a nice position in the NFC West with the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals at 2-0. As expected, the West is turning out to be very challenging, with the San Francisco 49ers still also being a threat despite being hit hard by injuries.

In Week 3, the Rams will look to stay undefeated, as they will be facing the Buffalo Bills in a challenging showdown.
