Crunch time for Rams in final ‘MNF’ tie

With slim NFC

- 

West hopes still alive, the visiting Los Angeles Rams return to action after an extended break when they face the Atlanta Falcons tomorrow morning (Thai time).In order to clinch their second straight division title, Los Angeles (11-4) need to beat Atlanta and the Arizona Cardinals, while the Seattle Seahawks (12-3) and San Francisco 49ers (11-4) must lose at least once each across the final two weeks.

The Rams’ odds of earning the NFC’s lone postseason bye took a hit last time out, as they squandered a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit in a 38-37 overtime loss to Seattle on Dec 18.

With everything to play for still in front of the team, Los Angeles head coach Sean McVay is eager to remove the bad taste the Week 16 loss left.

“We did get a chance to get caught up on rest, but at the same time, as a competitor, you're ready to get back at it,’ McVay said. “I couldn't have been more excited to get back in the building and get around our players and start our preparation”
