The Rams are heading back to the NFC Championship Game, but not without one of the wildest playoff games in history!
Erin Coscarelli and Ryan Anderson of LAFB break down instant Rams analysis of this overtime 20-17 thriller in Chicago!
Bleav in Rams episode presented by Fanduel recaps Matthew Stafford and the Rams' jaw-dropping fourth-down touchdown from Caleb Williams that forced overtime, then leaned on defense and a clutch kick from Harrison “Thiccer Kicker” Mevis to escape Chicago with win at Soldier Field.
After Kam Curl sealed overtime with a massive interception, Stafford calmly moved the Rams into field-goal range, highlighted by a critical completion to Puka Nacua. Mevis drilled the 42-yarder to silence the crowd and send Los Angeles to Seattle for the NFC title game.
We break down:
• Caleb Williams’ heroic but costly night, including three interceptions
• How the Rams’ defense dominated key moments, from Cobie Durant’s early pick to multiple goal-line stops
• Sean McVay’s late-game decisions and why the Rams struggled to put this away
• Stafford’s toughness and a fourth-quarter drive that flipped the game
• Special teams drama, penalties, and missed chances that nearly ended the Rams’ season
• Why Kam Curl, Puka Nacua, and the defense were the real story
The Rams did not play their cleanest game, but they played their toughest. Sometimes in January, that is all that matters.
