Latest Rankings Reflect Rams' Setback After Recent Loss

The Los Angeles Rams had a game they wanted to forget last week. It was one that they knew they should have won, but they came up short. There was no finger-pointing for excuses from this team as they just got outplayed.

That is something you do not usually see from a Rams team that is led by head coach Sean McVay. It was surprising to see the Rams go down the way that they did. Like they say, on a short week, anything can happen, and it did not go the way the Rams wanted it to.

The Rams came back from a two-touchdown deficit, but every time they would punch, their opponent had an answer for them. They eventually tied the game and sent the game to overtime, but they could not get a conversation on fourth down that ended the game.

Throughout the game the Rams had made some costly mistakes that we do not see them make. The first one was backup running back Blake Corum fumbling the ball while the Rams were driving down the field, looking to tie up the game. What made it worse was that it was a mental error because no one hit Corum; he just did not secure the ball. Then, starting running back Kyren Williams fumbled the ball at the one-yard line, late in the game, which would have given the Rams the lead.
