The Los Angeles Rams had a chance to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers pretty comfortably after grabbing a 27-3 lead, but they let Tom Brady and the Bucs back in the game by blowing that cushion. While it wasn’t their best performance of the season, the Rams did show some resilience and mental strength to weather the storm of Tampa Bay’s comeback in order to still win the game.
They didn’t go terribly deep on offense with the rotation of players they used, nor did they use many backups on defense, either. Looking at the snap counts, you can see how the playing time broke down, and there were a couple of surprises.
In just his second game out of retirement, Eric Weddle played 47 more snaps than Terrell Burgess. Cam Akers is also very clearly the No. 1 running back, playing four times the snaps that Sony Michel did.
