Defensive end Aaron Donald, right, of the Los Angeles Rams celebrates a stop against quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo of the San Francisco 49ers during the second half of a NFC championship football game at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on Sunday, January 30, 2022. INGLEWOOD — There was something perfect about the way the last three weeks unfolded, according to Odell Beckham Jr., including his Rams’ loss at the hands of the 49ers in Week 18.
“That 0-6 ,” Beckham said, “the story could not be written any better than that, to play them and shut the door.” When Stafford was on target, it was no guarantee his teammates would deliver. With 2:28 left in the first half, wide receiver Ben Skowronek dropped a wide-open pass in the end zone. Three plays earlier, it was dependable receiver Cooper Kupp who dropped a ball in space.
