The oddsmakers viewed the Rams as the underdogs against the Cowboys in their Week 1 matchup at home, but it was Los Angeles that came out on top Sunday night. The Rams knocked off Mike McCarthy in his Cowboys debut, 20-17 in Inglewood.
The players undoubtedly celebrated afterwards in the locker room and probably will continue to after leaving the stadium, but they also shared their thoughts on Twitter after starting 1-0. The common theme: It was a great way to break in the new stadium.
Here are some reactions from players on social media.
ITZ ALL GOD!

Gerald Everett left the game with a back injury and did not return. He didn’t share an update on his health, but he did say the pass he dropped is going to haunt him in his sleep. He is happy to be 1-0, though, as is the rest of the team.
Great team win today!! Love thus team. That drop is gonna haunt me in my sleep smh

Malcolm Brown, who was arguably the star of the game for the Rams, shared a post on Instagram celebrating the victory – as well as his two touchdowns, presumably. It was a great start to his season as he attempts to fill the shoes left by Todd Gurley.
