The Los Angeles Rams survived Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers thanks to a game-winning field goal from Matt Gay. Now, they advance to the NFC Championship Game to take on the San Francisco 49ers.
Several key Rams players are getting their first chances at winning a ring. Matthew Stafford is closer than he ever has been following his 12-year stint with the Detroit Lions. Cooper Kupp, Jalen Ramsey and Aaron Donald have been very close before and are looking to take advantage of their latest chance. One of Stafford's key targets, Odell Beckham Jr., is in a similar situation to him.
Although he has been on two playoff teams, Beckham hasn't been this close to Super Bowl contention before. With the Rams, he has the chance to contribute to a truly elite team. To celebrate the Rams' conference title game berth, Beckham led a locker-room dance party.

Ahead of kick-off, Beckham said that he is happy with where his life is at right now. He said that he is gearing up for a new part of his career that could be the very best one. He may remain the second option in the passing game behind the triple crown-winning Kupp but he should still excel in a pass-centric offense.
The Rams added Beckham midseason. It was great timing for both parties. As Beckham was looking for more opportunities after leaving the Cleveland Browns, the Rams were hunting for more firepower and suffered great misfortune with Robert Woods tearing his ACL.
Beckham got what he was looking for in his first season with the Rams. If he is truly becoming the best version of himself, he will make for a dangerous offensive trio with Stafford and Kupp for years to come.
