What to Know

The Rams have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They will square off against Detroit at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday. Detroit will need to watch out since the Rams have now posted big point totals in their last three contests.

Don't be fooled by the insanely high score: we promise the Rams and Kansas City were playing football. The Rams narrowly escaped with a victory as the team sidled past Kansas City 54-51. Jared Goff, who passed for 413 yards and 4 touchdowns, was a major factor in the Rams's success.

As for Detroit, it looks like they got the smaller half of the wishbone at Thanksgiving dinner. It was a hard-fought match, but they had to settle for a 16-23 loss against Chicago last week. If Detroit were hoping to take revenge for the 22-34 loss against Chicago the last time the teams met, then they were left disappointed.

The Rams's win lifted them to 10-1-1 while Detroit's defeat dropped them down to 4-7-1. The Rams caused 5 turnovers against Kansas City, so Detroit will need to take especially good care of the ball.
