It doesn’t get any better than a 1-0 start in the NFL, winning the first game of the season. That’s exactly what the Rams did on Sunday night, beating the Bears at home 34-14. There’s still a lot of work to be done with 16 regular-season games left, but they took care of business in the opener.
Players took to Twitter after the game and called it a great team win, which is exactly what it was. The offense put up 34 points, the defense held Chicago to 14 points with two takeaways, and Matt Gay contributed 10 points of his own in the kicking game.
Here are some of the reactions from Rams players on social media after the win – including Jalen Ramsey’s response to LeBron James’ shoutout.
1-0.
Special feeling being back on the field beside my brothers, with our friends, families, and fans cheering from the stands!
Gonna enjoy this feeling tonight.
