The Los Angeles Rams are considered to be one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl this season as per Athlon Sports. They've steamrolled over 11 opponents already. They earned their ticket to the playoffs last Sunday with a win over the Detroit Lions.
But above all, their offense is doing a masterful job. The Rams are scoring at a mind-boggling rate. Currently, they are averaging 34.9 points per game. It is the second-best in the league behind only the Kansas City Chiefs, who averages 37 points per game.
Starting quarterback Jared Goff is enjoying another successful season. Right now, he's among the best signal-callers in the league with 3,754 yards and 27 touchdowns with only seven interceptions. Goff participated in redditAMA earlier this week. There he stated that the Denver Broncos' defense was the toughest he has faced this season so far.

Indeed, the Broncos are one of the best defenses in the league. They've had a lot of talent in their defense, namely, Von Miller, Bradley Chubb, Chris Harris Jr., and Todd Davis, among others.
They displayed what they were capable of in Week 6 against the Rams. Although the Broncos lost 23-20, they've managed to limit the high-scoring team to 23 points, which was their lowest output this season.
Goff struggled in that game and only completed 14 of his 28 pass attempts for 208 yards. He was also sacked five times. Todd Gurley, however, played big with 208 rush yards to help them escape with the three-point win.
