Five takeaways from the Los Angeles Rams defeating the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday Night Football

With his weapons at full strength, Matthew Stafford tossed a touchdown in every quarter to lead the Los Angeles Rams past the Minnesota Vikings, 30-20, for his stellar four-touchdown Thursday Night Football performance.

Here, DAZN lists five takeaways from the Rams' big win.

Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua make the Rams a real threat

Returning Kupp and Nacua to the Rams' receiver corps changes the dynamic of the team drastically.

Just look at how Matthew Stafford was able to spread the wealth, connecting with Nacua for seven catches toward 107 yards and Kupp for 51 yards and a touchdown as part of the veteran QB's four-TD night. Their presence on the field also helped empower Stafford to find Demarcus Robinson for two touchdowns.

The Rams' wideouts being full strength makes them a legitimate threat in the NFC. Remember, this is a team that pushed the Detroit Lions to their limits in the playoffs last season.

Perhaps, this victory over the Vikings was the turning point the Rams needed to spark another deep run. They'll have a bye next week to heal up even more and then it's onto visiting the Seattle Seahawks while trying to get to .500.

Puka Nacua is a superstar in the making

Many players coming off an injury would hesitate to empty the tank on every single play the way Nacua did Thursday night returning to the field.

The physical wideout seemingly came up with a key catch every time the Rams needed it.

Listen when I tell you, the second-year man is a superstar in the making. He has all the tools to feast in the NFL for a long time.

Put some respect on the Rams' pass rush

The Rams sacked Sam Darnold three times for a loss of 28 yards. But there wasn't a sack bigger than this combined takedown of Darnold by Rams' linebackers Michael Hoecht and Byron Young. This kind of physical pass rush can be a big-play agent as the Rams' momentum continues to gain steam.

Even in a loss, Justin Jefferson is spectacular

A one-handed, bobbling, over the shoulder reception ... are you kidding me? Justin Jefferson is absolutely phenomenal, managing to steal the show on a weekly basis, further staking a claim in being the best wide receiver in the NFL.

Oh yeah, Jefferson also made a bit of history

In hauling in eight receptions for 115 yards on Thursday, Jefferson passed one of the wideout GOATs in Randy Moss in producing 31 games with 100-plus receiving yards in his first five NFL seasons.

Take a bow. Jefferson is electric.
