In this story:
The Los Angeles Rams missed a lot of opportunities in the first half vs. the Washington Commanders on Sunday.
Despite that, they led at halftime 13-0 and were in complete control.

However, on the first drive of the second half, the Rams blew things wide open, with quarterback Matthew Stafford hitting Cooper Kupp for a 62-yard touchdown on the second play of the possession to put L.A. Up 20-0.
The catch, which put Kupp at 100 yards on six catches, gives the veteran his fourth 100-yard game of the season.
Meanwhile, Stafford has now completed 17 of 21 passes for 187 yards and the score.
Not only did the touchdown give the Rams a commanding three-score lead, but it was also a major sigh of relief for the fans, who have watched Kupp struggle with injuries throughout the season.
Now, the tandem, which hosts a podcast together and are the best of friends off of the field, have gotten the Rams that much closer both to being .500, as well as to improving their playoff standing down the stretch of the regular season.
In other words, Nine and Dime are at it again.
