Super Wild Card Weekend Showdowns: Which Underdog Will Shock the NFL and Advance?

The loss to the Panthers really exacerbated the Rams’ defensive woes. Through the first 12 weeks of the season, Los Angeles allowed 28 pass plays of 20 or more yards – tied for the fifth fewest in the NFL. But in six games since Week 13, the Rams were gashed for 25 such plays, with only the Baltimore Ravens (27) yielding more.
While the pressure will be on the Rams’ secondary, the good news for Los Angeles is that it has the firepower to light up the scoreboard if this game becomes a shootout. Stafford should also be getting one of his top playmakers back in Davante Adams, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since Week 15.
