Atlanta Falcons vs Los Angeles Rams

Los Angeles

Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons traveled to Los Angeles to take on Jared Goff and the Rams in the Wild Card Round of the NFC playoffs and emerged victorious with a 26-13 win. Goff, Todd Gurley and the rest of the Rams' high-powered offense came in to the matchup having averaged 29.9 points per game, the highest in the NFL. However, the offense struggled to generate much against the Falcons. Atlanta had succeeded at defending the run this season, allowing only 104.1 rushing yards per game, ninth in the NFL. It was able to restrain Gurley in this game, as well, for the most part. The No. 6 seed Falcons will advance to the Divisional Round to take on the No. 1 Philadelphia Eagles.
