Story summary

Los Angeles Rams 24–20 Philadelphia Eagles

Kyren Williams scored two touchdowns in the final four minutes, including a go-ahead score from seven yards out with 1:10 left. Matthew Stafford led drives of 98 and 79 yards in the fourth quarter to rally Los Angeles from a 10-point deficit. The Rams' defense also produced a crucial goal-line stand late in the game.

The Eagles had the chance to extend their lead but failed on a fourth-down conversion attempt, giving the Rams new life. This decision by Eagles coach Nick Sirianni was pivotal as it allowed the Rams to stay within striking distance and eventually take advantage of their scoring opportunities.

With the win, both teams moved to 2-2 on the season. The victory snapped a four-game losing streak for the Rams against the Eagles and marked one of the most improbable comebacks in Sean McVay's tenure as head coach.
