In his first career NFL start Sunday, Austin Davis led the Rams to their first win of the season. Davis completed 22 of 29 passes for 235 yards. Before his second stint with the Rams, Davis was a volunteer assistant coach at Westminster Christian Academy. (2:00)

I'm getting a lot more hopeful and dare I say excited about Davis as the starter. 73% completion and 8+ yards per attempt so far? I'd be singing Bradford's praises if he was doing that so there's no reason not to give Davis his props too.

Come from behind win in his first start to boot? Seems like there isn't much excitement about a pretty positive situation.

From having no Quarterback to having a young Drew Brees, however, you're only as good as your next play.

Things are definitely looking a lot better than when Bradford went down!:D

I'm hoping he keeps it going. You gotta love him. I like his athleticism, he actually jumped to toss the ball over a defender. He takes a licking and keeps on ticking. He is fired up and passionate about winning (you can't teach that). He didn't crack under pressure. I hope his next play is as good as his last pass to Pettis. We may have someone very special.

Does anyone know if he can throw the deep ball??
He threw a nice one to Quick, but the only real mustard throw, IMO, was the one to Tavon, who consequently dropped it, and got hurt on the play. To me, that was his best throw in the game...arm wise.

Yeah, we dropped both of his best throws, IMO, but he made many other pretty good throws. He has a good feel for touch, and he's pretty creative in his release.
