The Los Angeles Rams just narrowly reeled off their second win in the preseason this past Saturday.

Los Angeles Rams training camp Week 4: Stock up John Sullivan Jersey , stock down Head Coach Sean McVay gave the first-team defense some run, and they looked impressive doing so.Let’s take a look at how the team fared:Stock DownOL Jeremiah KoloneKolone was not able to separate himself at all. He allowed a sack on QB Brandon Allen, and had a penalty earlier in the game. For a team that’s invested highly in their backup offensive line, Kolone doesn’t seem destined to be a part of that.CB Taurean NixonNixon was absolutely torched all game. There was maybe one or two bright instances, like a break on a catch and excellent open field tackle on third-and-long. Outside of that, it was generally all bad for Nixon. He was beat for multiple long catches and had a pass interference penalty.CB Troy HillHill had a chance to build off of a great end to the season with the postseason game vs the Atlanta Falcons, but has looked sloppy through three games in the preseason. Hill got beat for a touchdown by Braxton Miller. He hasn’t been in great position in pass coverage, and we can only wonder why. With the season-ending injury for CB Kevin Peterson, and question marks on health surrounding CB Sam Shields Cory Littleton Jersey , Hill had a chance to separate himself. He’s failed to do so.Stock UpQB Brandon AllenAllen was awesome all game. From the moment he stepped in he looked in command of the offense and routinely converted passes to move the chains. There were a handful of throws with defenders bearing down on him that were placed perfectly. I’m not sure there’ll be enough time for Allen to win the #2 quarterback job, but he’s earned the shot to go head-to-head with QB Sean Mannion.RB John KellyAre you tired of seeing Kelly here? I’m not, and I’m not sure this will be his last week here either. Kelly runs extremely tough. He uses his short stature and low center of gravity to his advantage, typically making it impossible for the first defender to bring him down. Kelly’s 15-yard touchdown was gorgeous, take a look:WR Fred BrownAfter having a rough performance in week two of the preseason, Brown bounced back nicely with a 5-35-0 line. Typically making catches not too far from the line of scrimmage, Brown improved a ton actually securing passes and taking hits showing his toughness. For Brown, it’s likely too little too late to make the roster, but it always helps to put out good tape.EDGE Matt LongacreLongacre wasn’t asked to do much in the game Nickell Robey-Coleman Jersey , but it’s nice to finally see him healthy and playing again. Longacre also had a rep on a end/tackle stunt where he came flying in for a sack. With the Rams needing to rely on Longacre this year, it’s a good time in the preseason for him to finally get healthy.EDGE Ejuan PricePrice has been relatively quiet all offseason, though he showed up in a big way vs the Texans. Price had a sack on a beautiful spin move that was nullified for a non-existent penalty on ILB Micah Kiser. He also had another sack on the two-point conversion attempt to take the lead in the game. Prior to all of that, Price also had a great rep vs the run where he knifed into the backfield and made a tackle-for-loss.CB Sam ShieldsSam Shields is the man. A former pro bowler, Shields was only available for the Rams because of a concussion history which nearly seen him walk away from the game. Once he was cleared and comfortable to return, the Rams knew they had a potential steal in Shields. So far, so good. Shields had a picture-perfect interception on Saturday, and has essentially cemented his role as the fourth cornerback on the team.Los Angeles Rams versus Minnesota Vikings: Highlight/Lowlight The legendary Los Angeles Rams are officially back. After another win on Thursday Night Football versus the Minnesota Vikings, the Rams are a league-leading 4-0.There were plenty of good and bad plays Andrew Whitworth Jersey , so don’t crucify me for my selections here.Let’s take a look at one of the potential highlights and lowlights of the game:Lowlight(Google AMP and Apple News readers will need to click here to see the clip)Your browser does not support HTML5 video.This 44-yard touchdown from WR Adam Thielen is my choice for the lowlight of the day. The defense didn’t have a great game as they surrendered 31 points, but this one was particularly hurtful because the Rams were starting to pull away only to have given up a major touchdown to Thielen who killed them all game. It’s hard to tell from the broadcast angle, but it looks like a cover-3 assignment where Sam Shields was expecting help from the single-high safety in John Johnson III. QB Kirk Cousins did a fantastic job looking off JJ3 to the right of the field opening the route for Thielen right up the left seam.Highlight(Google AMP and Apple News readers will need to click here to see the clip)Your browser does not support HTML5 video.Like I said above, you could have probably picked like five separate plays as the main highlight of the game though I decided to go with the 70-yard touchdown to WR Cooper Kupp. This play did a good job of encapsulating exactly what the Rams did last night - and what they’ve done under the entire tenure of Head Coach Sean McVay. The offense managed to have Kupp singled up by much less athletic (yet still extremely athletic) LB Anthony Barr. Kupp runs a crosser which turned into a wheel route as he crossed the formation. Once Kupp broke into the wheel route, it was all but over. Goff also tossed an absolute dime that kept Kupp running without breaking stride.The Rams earned this 10 day rest period to recover. Cheers Rams fans, it’s been 17 years since the Rams have been able to accomplish the feat of 4-0.
