Rams, Chiefs put on a show for the ages, and Twitter approves
Monday night’s game between the Los Angeles Rams and Kansas City Chiefs came with the most hype for an NFL game since, well … as long as we can remember.
And somehow it surpassed it.
The Rams edged the Chiefs in a 54-51 thriller that came complete with 14 touchdowns (three of them defensive), 1,001 yards and the third-most points in a game in NFL history.
And social media loved it.

Meanwhile, Dez Bryant was glued to the game, but showed his true black and gold colors despite not suiting up a single game for his new team.
