By beating the San Francisco 49ers the Los Angeles Rams set up a matchup with the NFC three seed, the Detroit Lions.

Everyone will be talking about Jared Goff vs Sean McVay. Matthew Stafford vs His 12-Season Home. That part writes itself. But beyond the ties that bind (And they go deeper than those), the storyline only thickens. These teams have a lot more in common.

If styles make fights, this game is the Spiderman meme of football games. How so? The Rams have the 5th best offense by DVOA. The Lions? The 6th best. The Rams are 6th in passing DVOA and 7th in rushing DVOA. The Lions are 9th and 4th.

Let’s take a closer look to see what other stats make this a compelling game.
