The Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers have fallen well short of expectations this season, but both teams are hoping to ride the momentum from exciting fourth-quarter comeback wins when they square off Monday night in Green Bay.
Los Angeles (4-9) has followed up its Super Bowl season with an ugly campaign that has been derailed by injuries and inconsistent play. The defending champs stumbled through an unthinkable six-game losing streak that appeared destined to become a seven-game skid until Baker Mayfield guided an improbable comeback against the Las Vegas Raiders on Dec. 8.
Mayfield, who had just joined the Rams two days earlier after getting released by the Carolina Panthers, rallied his new squad from a 16-3 deficit late in the fourth quarter.
