It feels like the sky is falling in L.A. but the Rams are still in great shape heading into the final game of the regular season.

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni is contemplating going for the second seed or resting his starters in Week 18 against the Commanders.

The Los Angeles Rams fell to the Atlanta Falcons 27-24 on Monday night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Here's who deserves credit and criticism.

The second-round rookie hauled in two receptions for 54, including a 27-yard touchdown in the third quarter of the Rams' 27-24 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 17. But more than that, Ferguson broke a 35-year franchise record with his sixth reception of at least 25 yards in a single season for a Rams' rookie tight end.

If the Buccaneers beat the Panthers and then the Falcons follow that up on Sunday with a win over the Saints, that would create a three-way tie at 8-9 and the Panthers would the division in that scenario due to having the best head-to-head record among all three teams.

Injuries have taken a toll on the Rams, but that alone doesn't explain their dismal showing against the Atlanta Falcons with the postseason fast approaching.

The Rams played terribly against the Falcons and no longer look like the unbeatable NFC leaders they once were.

The Rams were inches away from a chance to tie the score, go to overtime for a second straight game and try to pull an improbable victory from the vice grip of defeat. But they lost, 27-24, to the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Our Cardinals vs. Rams predictions expect Matthew Stafford & Co. to make quick work of this Arizona defense, at least early on.
