Stafford’s 88-Yard Strike to Atwell Lifts Rams Over Colts, 27-20

Colts miscues proved decisive, highlighting Rams stars Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua.

Overview

  • Tutu Atwell scored on an 88-yard reception with 1:33 remaining, and broadcasts indicated Indianapolis had only 10 defenders on the field for the play.
  • Receiver Adonai Mitchell lost a would-be touchdown on a fumble out of the end zone for a touchback and later drew a holding flag that erased Jonathan Taylor’s 53-yard score.
  • Rams safety Kamren Curl intercepted Daniel Jones twice, including a deep ball with 53 seconds left to seal the result.
  • Matthew Stafford threw for 375 yards and three touchdowns, and Puka Nacua caught 13 passes for 170 yards with a late game-tying score.
  • Mitchell acknowledged responsibility postgame, calling the mistakes unacceptable as Los Angeles improved to 3-1 and Indianapolis fell to 3-1.
