Here are three takeaways surrounding the Los Angeles Rams following their Week 14 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday night.

Heading into Sunday night, the Los Angeles Rams knew they would have their work cut out for them when taking on the Chicago Bears, who currently sit on top of the NFC North.

Between adjusting to play at Soldier Field along with the cold temperatures most members of the Rams weren’t used to dealing with, there were plenty of factors working against Sean McVay‘s team in this one.

Turns out, some of these factors along with a few other reasons prevented Los Angeles from finishing on the winning end after the team fell to Chicago 15-6.

When looking at some of the previous outings for the Rams throughout the 2018 season, a loss like this came as a huge surprise, but also doesn’t mean the team should panic over where they stand in the NFC playoff picture.

Yes, Los Angeles looked absolutely pathetic for the most part during their loss to Chicago, but sometimes these are the kind of games teams need to receive a major wake-up call to make sure it doesn’t happen again down the road when it matters the most in the postseason.

Depending on what happens next month, there’s a chance that Sunday will turn out to be the first of two meetings between the Rams and the Bears since they could very well meet again in the playoffs.

So as much as Los Angeles fans don’t want to discuss what took place in Week 14, here are three takeaways worth noting from Sunday’s loss to Chicago, as the Rams fell to 11-2 on the season.
