Rams nearly blow 24-point lead but hang on to beat Buccaneers in thriller

The Los Angeles Rams beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 30-27, in Sunday’s divisional playoff game at Raymond James Stadium, sending Tom Brady home for the remainder of the playoffs and Matthew Stafford into his first conference championship game.

And what a thriller it was.

The Rams will take on their rivals, the San Francisco 49ers, next Sunday at SoFi Stadium — the same stadium that will host Super Bowl LVI two weeks later. This will be the first time in league history that a team will host a conference championship game in the Super Bowl stadium.
