The 2024 NFL season is winding down for theLA Rams and the San Francisco 49ers. Before kickoff, both teams have four games remaining on their respective schedules. One team will emerge the victor, and will take one step closer to postseason competition. The losing team will have taken a step backward.
Suffice it to say that there is a lot on the line this week.
Neither team enters this game with reason to be overconfident. Both teams have struggled to find success while fending off multiple injuries. And the final injury report for Week 15 offers little relief from the injury plague that had kept both teams from performing at their best. But it's always a matter of next-man-up whenever these two teams square off.
The Rams have the advantage of knowing that they have beaten the 49ers in two of their last games. The 49ers have the home-field advantage. where they have won four of seven games. Even the oddsmakers are torn in this one, giving the 49ers the nod, but less than the standard three points that a home team usually gets from an evenly-matched opponent.
This will be a heckuva game.

The Rams would set themselves up nicely with a win. At 8-6, the Rams could end up tied with the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks (8-5) host the Green Bay Packers (9-4) in Week 15. The Arizona Cardinals (6-7) host the New England Patriots (3-10) this week. If the Rams lose, they will almost certainly tumble from runner-up in the NFC West Division to last place (due to tiebreakers).
Hopefully, the Rams will extend their winning streak to three games over the 49ers this week.
As always, thanks for reading.
