Rams barely move in Week 9 power rankings

The Los Angeles Rams beat up the crosstown Chargers to draw even on the year at 4-4, but consecutive wins over middling teams weren't enough to vault L.A. back into the top-10 of the expert power rankings we curated.

The Rams won 24-9 but had a hard time dispatching the Chargers until they got the run game going. Even worse, Matthew Stafford didn't look like himself in the win and is dealing with soreness in his throwing arm, which could complicate things for the 38-year-old quarterback.
