The Rams trailed by 10 points with less than 7 minutes to go but rallied to score 13 points, culminated by a field goal with 2 seconds left to beat the 49ers.
All Matthew Stafford needed was a chance. The San Francisco 49ers gave the Rams’ veteran quarterback two opportunities in the final minutes of Sunday’s game at SoFi Stadium and Stafford made them pay both times. Stafford engineered a game-tying touchdown drive and then a game-winning field goal drive as the Rams came back to defeat the 49ers, 27-24, before a crowd of 74,484. Joshua Karty kicked a 37-yard field goal with two seconds left to clinch a win that improved the Rams record to 1-2.
It was an important victory for a Rams team that is without injured receiver Cooper Kupp, who is out indefinitely, and receiver Puka Nacua, offensive linemen Steve Avila, Joe Noteboom and Jonah Jackson and defensive backs Darious Williams and John Johnson III are on injured reserve. The Rams fell behind early when Purdy connected with Jennings for two touchdowns.
