Everything was on the line for the Los Angeles Rams against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night. They were trying to snap a six-game losing streak to the 49ers, but more importantly, a trip to the Super Bowl was up for grabs.
They fell behind 17-7 in the third quarter and were nearly sent home with a crushing loss to their NFC West foes, but heroics from Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp and several others helped save the Rams’ season, securing their spot in Super Bowl LVI.
The job isn’t done yet and there are things to clean up from the win, but the Rams are one victory away from hoisting the Lombardi Trophy. Here’s what we learned from their win in the NFC title game.
