Packers vs. Rams: Score, updates, highlights
Can anybody beat the Rams?

It will be up to the Green Bay Packers to try to put a stop to the Rams’ dominance. But if there is any quarterback you would want to take on that task, Aaron Rodgers would probably be the choice.
The Packers are 3-2-1 this season, with Rodgers leading improbable comebacks in two of those wins. If the Rams do have a weak point, it’s that their defense has stumbled at times against strong competition. Those factors could lead to a tightly contested game.
Sporting News will provide live updates from Packers-Rams.
