Rams score 14 in fourth quarter, beat Eagles 24-20

Published October 4, 2026 04:32 PM The Rams did not look like a Super Bowl contender for much of Sunday’s matchup against the Eagles. But with their backs against the wall in the fourth quarter, Los Angeles engineered two long touchdown drives to defeat the Eagles 24-20.Matthew Stafford’s two interceptions led to 10 Philadelphia points in the first half, with the Eagles sporting a 20-10 lead at halftime.The Eagles had a chance to extend their lead in the fourth quarter. But on fourth-and-goal from the L.A. 2-yard line, Jalen Hurts’ pass was off target and incomplete to Darius Cooper.In response, the Rams went on a 10-play, 98-yard drive that ended with Kyren Williams getting in the end zone for a 1-yard score with 3:59 on the clock. After a three-and-out, the Rams got the ball back on their own 21-yard line and were able to take the lead for good with Kyren Williams’ 7-yard touchdown with just 1:10 left in the contest.With no timeouts, the Eagles went backward on their ensuing drive. Hurts was sacked twice and his deep pass on fourth down was broken up to effectively end the game.The Rams held the Eagles to 0-of-12 on third down and 1-of-4 on fourth down. Philadelphia has converted just 2-of-21 third downs in the last two weeks. The Eagles had just 172 total yards and 12 first downs, averaging just 3.0 yards per play.Hurts was 12-of-27 for 93 yards with two touchdowns.Already without several key offensive players, the Eagles lost Saquon Barkley early to a hamstring injury. Tank Bigsby also had to exit the game.On the other side, Stafford finished 32-of-51 for 317 yards with no touchdowns and two picks.Puka Nacua, playing for the first time since Week 1, had nine catches for 125 yards.But the best offensive player was Williams, who rushed for 80 yards on 16 carries and caught 10 passes for 67 yards.The win was huge for a Rams team that has struggled against the Eagles and was coming off a loss to the Broncos last week. Now at 2-2, they will be at home to play the Bills on Monday night next week.For the Eagles, they’re now 2-2 and will be in London to face the 3-1 Jaguars in Week 5.
