Los Angeles Rams: 4 reasons Week 11 against the Chiefs is big for the NFL
By Steve Rivera
Week 11 promises perhaps the biggest game on the NFL schedule as the 9-1 Los Angeles Rams host the 9-1 Kansas City Chiefs at the Coliseum.
With the potential debacle of playing in Mexico City now out of the way, the decision to move the Monday Night showdown back to the Coliseum is a huge deal for the Los Angeles Rams.
It’s also big for the National Football League as it’s going to provide fans not just a look at two of the best teams in the league, but also a potential preview of the Super Bowl. Week 11 has shaken out a lot of things, and being more than halfway through the 2018 season, the pretenders have mostly fallen away, and the best teams can be singled out.
Both the Rams and the Kansas City Chiefs have risen to the top of the equation when you begin to realistically look at who has a legitimate shot at not just the playoffs, but a Lombardi Trophy.
This Monday night is now more.
ESPN has had some truly awful teams trotted out for what was once the best night of the week during the football season. And with the game now back in Los Angeles, Rams against the Chiefs promises a lot of fireworks in front of the home fans.
Mexico City wouldn’t have provided the feel most likely to be seen in the Coliseum.
Week 11 ending on Monday night with two of the best teams playing is absolutely must-see TV. Given how these two franchises have played, it may also be the best game of the week.
