Kyren Williams scores two fourth-quarter touchdowns to lift Los Angeles over Philadelphia in a comeback victory.
The Los Angeles Rams overcame a 10-point deficit to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles 24-20 on Sunday, according to Sportsnet. Despite struggling offensively for much of the game, the Rams (2-2) secured the win through a late fourth-quarter surge.
Reporting from Sportsnet indicates the momentum shifted when Eagles coach Nick Sirianni opted to go for it on fourth down rather than attempting a short field goal that would have put Philadelphia up by three scores. After the Eagles failed to convert, the Rams capitalized on a 98-yard drive, aided by an unnecessary roughness penalty, which ended with a one-yard touchdown run by Kyren Williams with 3:59 remaining to make the score 20-17.
Following a Philadelphia offense that failed to convert any of its 12 third-down attempts, Matthew Stafford led a final 10-play, 79-yard drive. Stafford connected with Puka Nacua three times and contributed an eight-yard scramble before Williams sealed the victory with a seven-yard touchdown run with 1:10 left on the clock. Williams finished the day with two fourth-quarter scores to lead the Rams' comeback.
