Each week on SBNation.com we’ll have the NFL Victory of the Week, presented by Prilosec. The winning team is decided by conducting a poll on Tuesdays across all of the SB Nation NFL blogs throughout the 2010 season, with you -- the readers -- voting for the biggest win of each week.

This week's winner is the St. Louis Rams.

The Rams were a franchise that couldn’t get anything going in recent seasons. Last year, they won one game. This year, they’re 3-3 and just sprung a huge upset over the San Diego Chargers. After securing rookie QB Sam Bradford, the Rams franchise is on the rise. On Sunday though, a crushing defense that sacked Philip Rivers was most responsible for the 20-17 win. Steven Jackson chipped in a 109-yard, 1-TD performance and WR Danario Alexander made his mark in the NFL with a 72-yard, 1-TD game. Last year was a brutal one for the Rams, this season they’re at .500 through six games and walked away with the Victory of the Week.

Over 11,500 SB Nation readers voted this week, and it wasn't a close battle. The Rams/Chargers game was a runaway winner with 36% of the vote (4,144 votes). Thanks to all SB Nation readers who participated.
