Rams Team Grades: L.A. Bottoms Out Against San Francisco With Another Blown Late-Lead

For the third time this year, the Los Angeles Rams lost a fourth-quarter lead as an inept offense put undue pressure and strain on the defense. Despite leading the San Francisco 49ers by two touchdowns late on Saturday at the Memorial Coliseum, the Rams defense gave up two long scoring drives and the game-winning two-point conversion to lose for the 10th time in the last 11 games. Los Angeles is now 4-11 this season, including 0-2 since firing coach Jeff Fisher.

Rams Opponent Profile: 49ers Not The Same Team L.A. Fans Remember

Losers of 13 straight games since beating the Rams in Week 1, the 49ers are the worst team in the conference this year. That means L.A. could find itself on the winning side of the scoreboard this Saturday.
