When the 12-5 Los Angeles Rams lost to the 8-9 Atlanta Falcons in Week 17, the game was a double-whammy to the franchise. Not only did the game chalk up another loss for playoff-bound Los Angeles, but the victory dropped the Falcons' Round 1 draft pick out of the top 10 selections.
Thanks to a 2025 NFL Draft day trade, LA owns that pick.
The win was the third of a four-game winning streak by the Falcons, locking them into a three-team tie that propelled the 8-9 Carolina Panthers as the winner of the NFC South Division.
