NFL: LA Rams vs Atlanta Falcons
Join us at Arc Light Sports Bar & Grill in San Angelo for an epic Monday Night Football showdown as the Atlanta Falcons (6-9) host the Los Angeles Rams (11-4) at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, kicking off at 8:15 p.m. ET on December 29. Tight end Charlie Woerner, a Georgia native and key blocker who's been instrumental in powering the Falcons' run game this season, will look to make an impact in what could be a gritty, hard-fought battle to close out Atlanta's home slate.
This Week 17 clash is must-watch TV, especially for Rams fans—Los Angeles has already clinched a playoff spot but is still in the hunt for the NFC West crown and potentially even the No. 1 seed if results go their way. With the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers also at 11-4 or better, a win here could vault the Rams up the standings and secure home-field advantage in the postseason. On the flip side, the Falcons, though eliminated from playoff contention, are playing spoiler with nothing to lose. They've won their last two games, fueled by superstar running back Bijan Robinson, who leads the NFL with over 2,000 scrimmage yards and is a Pro Bowl lock. Expect fireworks as Atlanta's aggressive defense (second-highest blitz rate in the league) tests Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, who's thrown a league-best 40 touchdowns this year with an elite 112.1 passer rating.
Our prediction? The Rams edge out a close one, 27-23, thanks to their top-tier red zone efficiency on both sides of the ball (third in the NFL for scoring and defense) and Stafford's poise under pressure. But don't count out the Falcons—home-field energy at Mercedes-Benz could lead to an upset if Robinson explodes and Woerner dominates in the trenches, paving the way for big gains. It's the kind of high-stakes drama that defines late-season NFL action, with playoff implications hanging in the balance and star performances that could swing fantasy leagues or just make for unforgettable highlights.
