Rams' Super Bowl vibe is bona fide

JARED VERSE roars on a stellar day for the L.A. defense against Seattle.

(ROBERT GAUTHIER L.A. Times)

For anyone else who was too busy following the Dodgers last month to notice what was going on at SoFi Stadium, the Rams are for real.

They are first-place real.

They could be Super Bowl real.

You could feel it in the stands, which literally shook on Sunday when Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers missed a 61-yard field-goal attempt to seal the Rams' 21-19 victory.

You could feel it in the interview room afterward, the walls penetrated by the bass of the funk music playing in the adjacent dressing quarters.

The Rams are only 10 games into a 17-game season so they still have plenty of time to mess this up, but this is what the start of a championship run feels like.

This is what the start of a championship run sounds like.

"It's awesome," coach Sean McVay said.

What was especially awesome about their latest triumph was how un awesome their quarterback played.
