The Los Angeles Rams took everyone on a wild ride Sunday afternoon in the divisional round against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, one of the craziest games in recent memory. They went from leading 20-3 at halftime to going up 27-3 in the third quarter, only to blow that 24-point lead when Leonard Fournette scored on fourth-and-1 with 42 seconds left to tie the game at 27. - The Rams gave away every chance to clinch the victory, fumbling it four times and losing the ball each time. Cam Akers fumbled it twice, Cooper Kupp put it on the ground once and a snap sailed past Matthew Stafford in the fourth quarter, all of which were recovered by the Bucs. - If you’re wondering just how rare a win like this is, take a look at this stat.
