CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Los Angeles Rams have advanced to the divisional round of the playoffs for the second year in a row after beating the Carolina Panthers 34-31 on Saturday.

The Rams looked like they were going to run away from the Panthers early on, taking a 14-0 lead, but the Panthers stormed back to make it 17-14 at the half. Carolina tied the game in the third quarter and went ahead in the fourth, but after four fourth-quarter lead changes, Los Angeles ended up on top.
