Social media explodes after Rams’ loss to Dolphins

The Los Angeles Rams entered Monday night’s game on a three-game winning streak. A win against the Miami Dolphins would have put the Rams on the heels of the Arizona Cardinals for first place in the NFC West.

However, the opposite would be the case as the Rams fell behind early.

The Rams won the toss and delayed, giving the Dolphins the ball first. The Dolphins got off to a fast start, running the ball down the field for a 70-yard touchdown in five plays.

A Matthew Stafford interception led to a Dolphins field goal, giving Miami a 10-0 lead. Stafford had struggled up until that point, completing eight of 10 passes for 28 yards. He was sacked twice in the first quarter alone.

The Dolphins got the ball back after a quick five-play drive by the Rams that ended with a punt. However, Christian Rozeboom intercepted Tagovailoa just two plays into the Dolphins’ next drive.

The Rams fumbled it on the first play of the next drive, giving the ball back to the Dolphins just before midfield. Yet the Dolphins fumbled the ball away a few plays later, giving the ball back to the Rams outside the red zone.

The Rams couldn’t get much out of this opportunity and would settle for a field goal.

The Rams went into halftime down 10-6 after a drive late in the second quarter resulted in a 55-yard field goal.

The Rams moved the ball down the field on their first drive of the second half before a high snap lost a chunk of yards, putting the Rams out of reach for an easy field goal.

However, they would end up kicking and missing a field goal, giving the Dolphins the ball at midfield. Miami would score a touchdown six plays later, making the score 17-6.

The Rams would score no points in the third quarter. The two teams traded field goals early in the fourth quarter. However, the Rams responded to the Dolphins’ fourth-quarter field goal with another drive that ended in a field goal, with just over six minutes left in the fourth quarter to make the score 20–13.

The Dolphins added another field goal late in the fourth quarter to make it a two-possession game. Miami would win 23-12.

THE Rams scored a basket with less than a minute remaining. An unsuccessful onside kick effectively ended the game, with the Dolphins coming away victorious by a score of 23-15.
