When the schedule was released in May, every Los Angeles Rams fan (and probably player) circled Week 1 against the Detroit Lions – a rematch of their playoff game in January. The Lions won that game narrowly, 24-23, so the Rams will try to avenge that heartbreaking loss in the wild-card round on Sunday night when they head back to Detroit.
In anticipation of this marquee matchup in the Motor City, the Rams released a game trailer narrated by J.B. Long and it’s predictably great. If this doesn’t get you excited for Sunday’s showdown, nothing else will.
Matthew Stafford is back in Detroit for just the second time since leaving the Lions, Jared Goff is facing his former team for the third time and Sean McVay is looking for his seventh Week 1 win in eight years.
