left and Ramik Wilson forced and recovered Ty Montgomery‘s fumble on the ensuing kickoff return Womens Aaron Ripkowski Jersey , allowing the Los Angeles Rams to remain unbeaten without a late defensive stand in a 29-27 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.Jared Goff passed for 295 yards and three touchdowns while the Rams (8-0) were sternly tested by the Packers (3-3-1) and Aaron Rodgers, who threw for 286 yards.Both teams rallied from 10-point deficits to take a lead in front of a bipartisan Coliseum crowd, but Rodgers never got the chance to mount one of his trademark game-winning drives.Instead, the Rams extended their best start to a season since 1969 with another key play from LA’s superlative special teams — and two crushing special-teams mistakes by Green Bay.Marquez Valdes-Scantling caught a 40-yard touchdown pass from Rodgers with 8:50 left to put the Packers ahead 27-26, but Goff and Todd Gurley drove the Rams into range for Zuerlein’s second field goal of the fourth quarter after a 25-yard punt by JK Scott.Montgomery then coughed up his return, and Wilson pounced on the ball. Gurley ran 17 yards for a key first down and stopped before reaching the end zone in the final seconds — probably enraging his fantasy owners, but allowing the Rams to run out the clock.Josh Reynolds caught two touchdown passes for Los Angeles, while Gurley rushed for 114 yards and scored a touchdown in his franchise record-tying 11th consecutive game on a 30-yard pass in the third quarter.The Rams faced their largest deficit of the season when they trailed 10-0 early in the second quarter, but they calmly turned it into a 23-13 lead late in the third.Rodgers answered with two touchdown drives to grab a one-point lead for Green Bay in the fourth quarter, but Goff answered his fellow Cal product and childhood hero after Aaron Donald sacked Rodgers on third down to stop the Packers’ next drive.Both teams had loud contingents of fans at the Coliseum, where Green Bay won the first Super Bowl in 1967. The Rams were back home for the first time in 31 days after three consecutive road victories got them off to their best start since 1985 Womens Bart Starr Jersey , while the Packers were greeted by a raucous bunch of California Cheeseheads in their first trip to Los Angeles since the NFL returned in 2016.Green Bay came out strong on both sides of the ball after its bye week, and Jamaal Williams scored on a 1-yard TD plunge in the first quarter.The Rams were not as sharp: They punted on their first three possessions for the first time in Sean McVay’s head coaching career, and Green Bay sacked Goff three times early.Los Angeles finally scored on a safety with 2:47 left in the first half when the defense blew up a run play from the Green Bay 1.Goff then mounted a scoring drive ending in a 1-yard TD catch by Reynolds 21 seconds before halftime.Gurley’s scoring catch put Los Angeles ahead in the third quarter, extending Gurley’s TD streak to tie the Rams record set by Elroy “Crazylegs” Hirsch in 1950-51. Reynolds then scored on a 20-yard grab a few minutes later.The Packers calmly responded with three big plays culminating in Jones’ TD draw run up the middle with 13 seconds left in the third.SHIELDS SHINESSam Shields made several big plays for LA against his former team. The veteran defensive back caught a pass from Johnny Hekker on a fake punt, and he later downed a punt at the Green Bay 1 to set up the Rams’ defense for its safety. Shields played seven seasons with the Packers before his fourth concussion in 2016 nearly ended his career, but he returned to the NFL with the Rams this season.INJURIESPackers: WR Randall Cobb had four catches for 40 yards in his return from a three-game absence with a hamstring injury.Rams: WR Cooper Kupp missed his second straight game with a knee injury, opening the chance for Reynolds to shine.UP NEXTPackers: At New England on Nov. 4.Rams: At New Orleans on Nov. 4. APC breaks down the free agent acquisitions of each NFC North team, starting with Detroit."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareShareNFC North in Free Agency: Lions landed the top edge rusher on the open marketChristopher Hanewinckel-USA TODAY SportsThe Green Bay Packers play their division rivals twice a year, so regular APC readers have surely kept an eye on what the Lions, Bears and Vikings have done during the offseason. We’re going to take a look at what their acquisitions could contribute to new squads and why each team might have felt they could fill a hole on their rosters.This breakdown begins with the Detroit Lions, who were big spenders in free agency — landing one of the top EDGE players available in Trey Flowers — as more Belicheck disciples buck the “Patriot Way” of team-building. The Trey Flowers contract was a big deal for the defensive end Dave Robinson Jersey White , who’s coming directly from New England, where Matt Patricia used to coach the defense. A five-year contract worth a potential $90 million seems like a lot for an EDGE who didn’t specialize in sacks, necessarily, but rather being in the right place at the right time and applying pressure to opposing quarterbacks. By adding Flowers to a defensive line that includes Damon Harrison and a talented A’Shawn Robinson, the Lions could have good control of the trenches. By not re-signing Ezekiel Ansah, though, you have to wonder how much pass rush pressure they’ll apply. According to Football Outsiders, the Detroit Lions were 29th in pressure rate last season at 26.3 percent of pass plays. Sacks aren’t everything, as football Twitter has been quick to remind us this offseason, but a momentum-changing sack every now and then can light a fire in the defense.The Lions also paid big money to add another former Seahawks defensive back in Justin Coleman to help shore up their 31st ranked pass defense (by defensive DVOA). We remember the Deshawn Shead experiment, however Womens Dean Lowry Jersey , which ended poorly. Still, slot corners are as valuable as ever in today’s NFL and Coleman allowed an average of just 1.09 yards per slot coverage snap last year, which was good for 14th among corners with at least 100 passes thrown their way. Coleman is listed at 5-foot-11 190 pounds, so it will be interested if the Packers decide to test him with big slot options like Jimmy Graham and Equanimeous St. Brown.The offensive additions are fine, but not great. Danny Amendola will replace Golden Tate on the depth chart, but his role in the offense could be limited. As these things go, Amendola is another former Patriot whom Patricia knows well. Amendola had a few good games with the Dolphins last season, but other than that he was an afterthought. Blame it on the wonky QB situation if you will, but Amendola has never had more than four touchdowns in a season and hasn’t played a full 16 games since 2014. He should easily be a step down from Tate. The Lions’ newly signed TE Jesse James doesn’t feel like he’ll add a new dimension to the offense that wasn’t there with Luke Willson last year. The Lions also let former Packers guard T.J. Lang go (and he is apparently planning to retire), so adding Oday Aboushi for depth was a practical move.Major AdditionsDE Trey FlowersCB Justin ColemanWR Danny AmendolaTE Jesse JamesG Oday AboushiRe-SignedCB Marcus CooperDE Romeo OkwaraDeparted in Free Agency/ReleasedDE Ezekiel Ansah (currently unsigned) DE Kerry Hyder (Cowboys)WR Bruce Ellington (Patriots)G T.J.
