After turning in a stunner of a loss in Week 2, fans weren’t particularly high on the Los Angeles Rams’ prospects in Week 3, when they welcomed a slightly less injured San Francisco 49ers to SoFi Stadium for what felt like a pretty cut-and-dry loss on paper
Fortunately, NFL teams play on the gridiron, not on paper, and against all odds, from injuries to schematic weaknesses, Sean McVay crafted a winning gameplan against his former fellow Washington assistant and secured LA its first win of the season and a crucial NFC West one at that
So, with Week 4 rapidly approaching and the Rams tasked with hitting the road once more for a showdown between one of the oldest QBs in the NFL, Matthew Stafford, and one of the youngest in Caleb Williams, who knows a thing or two about playing winning football while the Los Angeles football market is watching, McVay’s team has the edge once more, right? Or will they fall into another trap game, where a seemingly under matched team builds up an insurmountable victory in the first quarter? While #Trapwatch has to always be on when the Rams are playing, especially since they are well below full strength, this game feels far more cut and dry, as they are better equipped to win the game the way the Bears like to play them
