Overview
- Bijan Robinson powered Atlanta with 195 rushing yards, including a 93-yard touchdown, and 229 yards from scrimmage in the upset.
- Matthew Stafford finished 22-of-38 for 269 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions, including a pick-six, hurting his MVP case as Drake Maye moved into betting pole position.
- Rams linebacker Jared Verse blocked a 37-yard field goal and returned it 76 yards for a touchdown to fuel a rally from a 21-0 halftime deficit before Zane Gonzalez hit the winning 51-yarder with 21 seconds left.
- The closing sequence drew scrutiny after a deep incompletion to Tutu Atwell that ESPN’s booth said warranted pass interference and a one-handed Puka Nacua grab that was upheld as incomplete on review.
- Sean McVay said his starters will play in Week 18, and the NFL set Rams–Cardinals for Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET, with Los Angeles able to land the No. 5 seed only with a win and a 49ers loss to the Seahawks.
