Will the Sean McVay-led Los Angeles Rams pull off an upset on Monday?

The Rams are currently second in the NFC West Division table behind the Seattle Seahawks and above Kyler Murray’s Arizona Cardinals.

The visitors have won just 2 of their 5 away games this season. Coach Sean McVay will hope to improve on that record in Week 11.

Quarterback Jared Goff will look for some support in the offense from wideouts, Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods, and Tyler Higbee. But the major spotlight will be on Los Angeles Rams defensive stars, CB Jalen Ramsey, and DE Aaron Donald.

Both these players will need to put in a strenuous shift at the Raymond James Stadium if they intend to thwart the free-flowing Buccaneers offense.
