Around this time last week, there were plenty of football fans writing off the Los Angeles Rams in regards to earning a third trip in a row to the playoffs, and rightfully so since the team was coming off an embarrassing loss on the road to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Despite the Rams entering the bye week on a hot note with two wins in a row, it’s tough to brag about wins against teams like the Cincinnati Bengals and Atlanta Falcons since the two teams had one win combined at the time.
So when Los Angeles failed to even score a single touchdown on offense during their loss on the road to Pittsburgh, it was easy to understand why there was so much concern heading into Sunday’s meeting with Chicago.
