Late scores gives Rams 27-24 win over Colts
(INDIANAPOLIS) – Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford refused to let a sore right thumb derail his Sunday plans. Carson Wentz's right ankle wasn't nearly as forgiving. Stafford led the Rams on two late scoring drives, Matt Gay made a tiebreaking 38 yard field goal with 2:23 to play and the injured Wentz watched Indianapolis' final two possessions helplessly from the bench as the Rams held on for a 27-24 victory over the Colts. While Stafford wasn't nearly as crisp or efficient as in his Rams debut, he certainly played well enough; even after his throwing hand hit the helmet of DeForest Buckner during the first half. Stafford wound up 19 of 30 with 278 yards, two touchdown passes and one interception. And it's clear he's already built a pretty nifty connection with receiver Cooper Kupp, who had nine receptions for 163 yards and both scores. It was the second-highest single-game yardage total of Kupp's career. The combination helped the Rams (2-0) improve to 5-0 all time under coach Sean McVay in road openers. Indianapolis, meanwhile, is reeling from the first 0-2 start in coach Frank Reich's four-year tenure. And things appear to be only getting tougher as the Colts embark on a three-game road trip to Tennessee, Miami and Baltimore. And they may be without their starting quarterback. Before leaving the game, Wentz was 20 of 31 for 247 yards with a touchdown and an interception. His replacement, Jacob Eason, was intercepted by Jalen Ramsey on his second NFL throw.
