The Los Angeles Rams are a 4.5-point favorite against the Cinderella Chicago Bears in the Divisional Round, according to FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a>. Chicago, with Caleb Williams under center, has been the comeback king all season long, pulling out the most frustratingly miraculous wins you\u2019ve ever seen.<\/p>\n

The Rams won a surprising 34-31 thriller over the Panthers in the Wild Card Round on Saturday. Just when it looked like Carolina was about to send L.A. home with another loss, Matthew Stafford threw the 19-yard game-winning touchdown to Colby Parkinson with 38 seconds left to seal the win. That game was way too close for comfort, but a win\u2019s a win.<\/p>\n

Chicago has developed a knack for starting slow before deciding to show up in the fourth quarter. The Bears fell behind 21-6 before rallying off 25 points in the final frame to defeat the Packers 31-27. Los Angeles cannot afford to let them come back. If they\u2019re in a position to keep piling up the points, they must do so to beat a squad deemed a \u201cteam of destiny.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eventually, the luck will run out on Da Bears, so hopefully it\u2019ll come this week.<\/p>\n
