In the first half, the Los Angeles Rams were in such complete control of the game that it surely looked like a blowout was in full effect. At one point, the Rams were on pace to drop nearly 600 yards of offense. However, the Denver Broncos defense did one good thing and that was limiting them to field goals all through the second quarter.Down 16-0, Bo Nix and the Broncos charged back in the third quarter with two touchdown drives and converting both two-point conversions to tie the game. Then an absolutely wild fourth quarter where both teams would make big plays before Nix and the Broncos drove down the field in the final four minutes to take the lead in the final minute.

The Rams second drive would have them march down the field converting a fourth down along the way to put up the first touchdown, then the Broncos would answer with a drive that ended in a doinked field goal attempt from Wil Lutz. Matthew Stafford and the Rams would then charge back down the field on their next drive and would be in field goal range again before the first quarter ended. The Broncos’ defense would hold on that drive and only give up a field goal early in the second quarter. Rams 7, Broncos 0.

However, it was a tail of a predictable and ineffective offensive game plan getting their butts whipped on every drive with the Broncos defense hanging on by a thread giving up three field goals in the second quarter — but it was clear the game was slipping away from Denver. The Rams walk into halftime with a 40-yard field goal and a 16-0 lead. Denver has been outscored 40-10 in the first half so far this season. LA has a 273-67 advantage in total yardage and a 17-5 edge in first downs tonight.
