Rams take big step toward playoffs by winning field-goal battle and sweeping 49ers

LA Times  

A 51-yard reception by Rams receiver Puka Nacua set up the deciding field goal in a win over the San Francisco 49ers. “Being able to do that, knowing how good of a team they are and knowing the history with the two organizations, it’s huge,” Kyren Williams said, “and it shows that we’re the big brothers now.” In September, the Rams needed a patented Matthew Stafford fourth-quarter comeback and a last-second field goal by Karty to beat the 49ers 27-24 at SoFi Stadium. “You can just feel the momentum,” said tight end Colby Parkinson, who had a key third-down reception during the Rams’ final drive. Stafford connected with Nacua for the 51-yard play, but the drive stalled and the Rams settled for Karty’s third field goal. The Rams got the ball with a little more than five minutes left and used nearly all of it during a drive that ended with Karty’s final field goal with 18 seconds left.
