Without Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, Aaron Donald, Allen Robinson and several starters on the offensive line, the Los Angeles Rams put up as good a fight as they could have against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Unfortunately, they couldn’t hold on to win despite a valiant effort and a late lead.

The Rams took a 23-20 lead with 2:56 left in the game thanks to a 6-yard touchdown run by Cam Akers, but it was too much time for Geno Smith and the Seahawks. They marched down the field, scored a touchdown with less than a minute to play and held on to beat Los Angeles.

It was a heartbreaking loss for a Rams team that has now lost six in a row, summing up their season in a nutshell. John Wolford battled through a couple of injuries, Tutu Atwell and Brandon Powell came alive on offense and Bobby Wagner put together an all-time performance, but it wasn’t enough.

Here’s a recap of the Rams’ loss on Sunday.
