The St Louis Rams had a chance to complete another huge upset on the road for the second straight week. The Rams played the undefeated Green Bay Packers on Sunday with the hopes of out-smarting one of the best quarterbacks in the game. The Rams played a great game defensively, but ultimately would fall short on the other side of the ball, resulting in a 24-10 loss despite Todd Gurley’s 159 yards on the ground. The Rams were able to intercept Aaron Rodgers twice (breaking a streak of home games without one that dates back to 2012) and also made Rodgers give up a fumble as well. (which is the first time Rodgers has had three turnovers in a home game in his career)
The Rams needed to do a lot right, and they in fact did do a lot right (you can check out our keys to victory here) but it wouldn’t matter because of a lackluster performance by the offense.
