The Los Angeles Rams trail the Seattle Seahawks by a score of 17-13 in the NFC Championship game after the first two quarters of play. This has been a close game between the two NFC West rivals, and so far, they have legit looked like two of the best teams left in the NFL.
Seattle has looked a bit better though as reflected by the score.
The Rams started with the ball, but Seattle’s defense forced a three and out, and Sam Darnold, with the help of Kenneth Walker led Seattle down the field and scored
on a rushing score to make the score 7-0 after the extra point.
The Rams were ablel to move the ball after their initial drive, but had to settle for field goals, but some points are better than no points as the Rams made the score 10-6 after Seattle added to their total too.
The Rams’ defense did eventually get to Darnold via a big-time sack, which forced a punt and gave L.A. the ball back before the two-minute warning. L.A. marched down the field to put their best drive of the day on tape and with over 1:50 remaining in the half, Stafford found Kyren Williams for a receiving score.
The Rams led 13-10 after the extra point.
The Rams were even able to get the ball back on offense after an uninspiring drive by Seattle, but L.A. failed to do much with the ball and they gave Seattle another chance to score with plenty of time left in the second quarter.
Darnold would lean on Jaxon Smith-Njigba during this drive, and it would worker as Darnold moved the ball and found JSN in the endzone to take a 17-13 lead after the extra point.
The score would stay that way as the second quarter officially came to a close.
