The Rams are riding high with confidence after avoiding a disastrous 0-3 start by coming back to defeat the San Francisco 49ers, 27-24, with a last-second field goal.

If he amasses 223 yards passing, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will move past Eli Manning into 10th place on the NFL’s career passing yardage list.

Stafford is still without injured receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, so running back Kyren Williams must have another big performance. Receiver Tutu Atwell is among others who must again step up.

Bears quarterback Caleb Williams, the top pick in the 2024 draft, could benefit from the return of receiver Keenan Allen.

The Rams defense ranks at or near the bottom of the league statistically in yards surrendered and points, but it made key stops against the 49ers.

Who will win Rams vs. Bears?

Gary Klein’s pick: After emerging from the 49ers victory without any major injuries, the Rams for the first time this season have a semblance of continuity. The Bears defense is thus far a top-10 unit, but Williams has been unable to ignite the offense. Rams 23, Bears 17

Sam Farmer’s pick: The Rams are starting to get a little healthier, and their cobbled-together offensive line played well against the 49ers. That was a confidence boost. They’re good enough to win this matchup. Rams 24, Bears 21
