According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Rams didn’t arrive back home from their flight until just before noon EST, or about 9 a.m. local time. Rapoport stated that there were “hours and hours of delays” because of plane issues:
Just more salt in the wound for a determined Rams team that fell just short of upsetting the Lions in a 24-23 defeat.
The Lions’ victory over old friend Matthew Stafford marked the franchise’s first playoff victory since the 1991 season. Detroit will host the winner of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Philadelphia Eagles game in the Wild Card Round.
