Rams 28-6 Giants: Los Angeles rolls on Monday night as Dart exits
Stafford two touchdowns, Rams defense allows only field goals. Jaxson Dart knee injury. Week 2 closed.
Why this game matters
Week 2 began with high-scoring drama in Buffalo and continued through an overtime thriller in Kansas City. Monday Night Football at SoFi Stadium delivered the closing chapter of the week, with the Rams rebounding from their opening defeat in Australia to capture their first win of the season.
What actually happened
Sky Sports and NFL.com report that Los Angeles took charge early behind Matthew Stafford, who threw two touchdown passes in a dominant first half. The Giants suffered a devastating blow when starting quarterback Jaxson Dart left the game in the first half with a knee injury.
With Dart sidelined, the New York offense sputtered against a ferocious Rams pass rush. Los Angeles clamped down, allowing just two field goals across sixty minutes while controlling the line of scrimmage.
What it changes
The 28-6 final brings both the Rams and Giants to 1-1 records. More importantly, it closes the 16-game ledger for Week 2. The NFL calendar now turns directly toward Week 3, where Atlanta visits Green Bay on Thursday night.
