LOS ANGELES \u2014 If ever a loss could beat a team twice, the Rams\u2019 33-26 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday certainly has all the ingredients. The stunning collapse had everything, from red-zone inefficiency and self-inflicted gaffes to two blocked field goals, the latter as time expired to erase a chance of salvaging the win.<\/p>\n

In spite of the staggering nature of the loss, Rams coach Sean McVay believes his team has what it takes to move past it when the surprising Indianapolis Colts come to town.<\/p>\n
