Super Bowl favorite Rams are back in a familiar position, sitting under .500 after 5 games

Special teams mistakes and a missed field goal by Harrison Mevis helped Los Angeles drop its fourth game in five seasons after a 37-34 overtime defeat.

  • On Monday, the Los Angeles Rams fell to 2-3 after a wild 37-34 overtime loss to Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Inglewood. The preseason Super Bowl favorites now face a familiar October challenge.
  • Head coach Sean McVay cut kicker Harrison Mevis on Tuesday after his missed field goal attempts plagued special teams this year. The Rams signed Blake Grupe to address the recurring issue.
  • Despite the loss, Matthew Stafford's offense remains the NFL's most productive at 424.4 yards per game. Stafford targeted Puka Nacua 24 times for a career-high 17 catches and 138 yards, while the defense ranks third allowing 285.2 yards per game.
  • Left tackle Alaric Jackson faces a potential suspension after punching Bills linebacker Bradley Chubb during postgame exchanges. The Rams lack depth at tackle, possibly forcing 36-year-old David Quessenberry into a starting role.
  • The Rams' upcoming schedule offers a midseason rally opportunity, with their next six opponents holding a combined 8-16-1 record. Head coach McVay has historically fixed early-season problems, and the team faces the Arizona Cardinals twice, including this Sunday.
