The New York Giants and the Los Angeles Rams will clash on Sunday in Week 7 of the NFL 2016 regular season. This game will be an earlier start, and even though the game is scheduled as a home game for the Rams, this face off will take place from London, England. The Giants vs Rams has a scheduled start time of 9.30 a.m. ET and takes place from Twickenham Stadium, London, which is the famous home of the England rugby team. The game can be watched on TV on the NFL Network or online through live stream via the link below.
The Giants managed to get back to even par last week as a tight 27-23 win over the Baltimore Ravens moved New York back to a 3-3 record. They will be desperate today to build on that win and move into the positive record territory. They will know that a loss today will undo the good work they put in last week, and they will not want to fall back to 3-4 today.
New York got off to a sluggish start last week against the Rams, finding themselves 10-0 down after the first quarter. However, they showed character to stay with it, and they came back well to take the lead, and did well to keep their noses in front at the end against a tough Ravens outfit.
The Rams also come into today's game on 3-3 having lost on the road last week to the Detroit Lions. The game could have gone either way last week, and coming into the fourth quarter the teams were still deadlocked with each team having scored 7 in each of the opening three quarters. However, it was the Lions who managed to sneak ahead in the final quarter to claim the tightest of wins.
The Rams will be disappointed with that result and will be wanting to bounce right back this week with a win over the Giants. But the venue will be unfamiliar to both teams and this one could go either way.
Earlier in Week 7, NFL Thursday Night Football saw the Green Bay Packers claim what in the end was an easy win over the Chicago Bears.
Even though the 26-10 scoreline would indicate that the Packers had it all their own way, that was not the case, and through the opening three quarters just field goal separated the teams.
However, when things came to the crunch, the hapless Bears fell down again and disappointed. With just three points between the teams heading into the fourth quarter, Chicago fans may have been hoping their team could sneak the win at the end. But 13 unanswered points for the Packers saw Green Bay run out victors to move to 4-2.
That result condemned the Bears to their sixth defeat of the season so far as they dropped down further to 1-6, and this is already turning into a long and painful season for them.
Aaron Rodgers threw for 326 yards and three touchdowns. His 39 of 56 set a franchise record for completions in a single game.
The Bears meanwhile lost quarterback Brian Hoyer to a broken left arm in the second quarter, and so he joins the injured list with Jay Cutler, leaving Chicago to turn to third stringer Matt Barkley, who ended 6 of 15 for 81 yards and two interceptions.
Bears coach John Fox said, "Well, when you lose your starting quarterback it can be disruptive. It's not an excuse, it's just a reality,"
