For the third straight season and seventh in head coach Sean McVay’s nine-year tenure, the Los Angeles Rams are headed to the postseason.
Los Angeles became the first NFL team to punch its ticket into the playoff dance with a 41-34 victory over the Detroit Lions on Sunday afternoon.
The NFC-leading Rams improved to 11-3 with three games remaining, already their most since winning the 2021 Super Bowl.
One of two teams — along with NFC West rival Seattle Seahawks — to boast a top-five offense and defense entering Week 15, the Rams got plenty of Super Bowl buzz in the preseason and have followed suit on that track. They won their second straight game on Sunday and their eighth of the last nine.
