All 32 teams will play their final game in week 17 on Sunday Youth Austin Blythe Jersey , meaning the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers will go to battle one last time.The Rams are headed for an extended season as they have a playoff place locked in. The significance of this game to the Rams is much greater than the 49ers, as a win will secure a first-round playoff bye week. The 49ers on the other hand should be playing for draft position, though they’ll likely try to build some momentum going into the 2019 season.Let’s take a look at the matchups to watch:DT Aaron Donald vs QB Nick MullensThe all-world defensive tackle is now three sacks away from tying Michael Strahan’s record of 22.5-sacks in one season. The last time Donald faced the 49ers, he sacked QB C.J. Beathard four times. He looked downright unstoppable. The 49ers should look to donate more attention towards #99, though he’s shown an ability to remain un-guardable regardless. If Donald can put together a downright dominant performance of 3.5-sacks or better, he’ll officially set another record in his legendary 2018 campaign. The 49ers are currently allowing three sacks per game.RB C.J. Anderson vs 49ers’ front-7Anderson played his first game as a Ram with three days of practice under his belt, receiving 20 carries for 167 rushing yards and a touchdown. Anderson looked like a bowling ball breaking tackles in the second level and creating more yardage than he was given. Anderson will likely once again be relied upon to take the lions share of the carries. He should also be better equipped to handle the workload.Rams’ CB’s vs WR Kendrick BourneWith WR’s Dante Pettis and Marquise Goodwin both ruled out with injury, the next most dangerous wide receiver becomes Kendrick Bourne. Bourne had four receptions for 73 yards last week. Bourne actually didn’t register any stats the first game versus the Rams, though the 49ers were much more healthy at receiver in that contest. CB’s Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib have played better recently White Ndamukong Suh Jersey , with the Rams’ defense improving on all levels (even if marginally).SS John Johnson III vs TE George KittleGeorge Kittle is by far and away the 49ers’ most dangerous weapon as he’s closing in on breaking records at the tight end position. Kittle has 1,228 yards this season, with 98 of those coming against the Rams in week seven. Kittle also scored a touchdown in that contest. Now, luckily the Rams have a great defender in JJ3 who has shown an ability to over tight ends effectively. Majority of the damage that Kittle had in the first contest came against the ILB duo of Mark Barron and Cory Littleton.LG Rodger Saffold vs DT DeForest BucknerRodger Saffold is one of the best offensive guards in the league, though he’ll have his hands full this Sunday with DeForest Buckner. Buckner has 12 sacks on the season, proving to be one of the best interior defensive lineman in the league. The offensive line needs to have a clean game and build some momentum moving forward towards the playoffs. No cold feet for the Los Angeles Rams in the frigid conditions.Just cool running.Todd Gurley heated up the offense with a career afternoon to power the Rams through the bitter cold for a 23-20 victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday.It was nothing but smooth sledding for the team from the land of sunshine.The 25 degrees at kickoff marked the second-coldest at home for the Broncos during a contest held in September or October. The coldest for this time of year was 22 degrees on Oct. 12, 1969, against Oakland."It's kind of cold," said Gurley Youth Aaron Donald Jersey , who rushed for a career-best 208 yards and two TDs. "It don't really matter. At the end of the day, just got to go out there."No surprise, the Rams relied on a steady dose of Gurley as they improved to 6-0 in sending the Broncos (2-4) to their fourth straight loss. Gurley carried the ball 28 times and averaged 7.4 yards per carry.On a day when players could see their breath, Gurley and many others didn't bundle up. No long sleeves for him. He did wear a ski mask under his helmet.His job complete, Gurley layered up to greet the conditions by putting on a hooded sweat shirt, heavy jacket and a stocking cap."Weather is weather," receiver Brandin Cooks said. "We knew we had to come and do our job the best that we can."One slight brain freeze: Coach Sean McVay regretted some of his decisions."I thought I put us in some horrible spots throughout the game, really getting impatient, forcing things that weren't there White Marcus Peters Jersey ," McVay lamented. "The players bailed me out, finding a way to win."The Rams don't normally take the field in these kinds of conditions. To prepare, quarterback Jared Goff tried out gloves on both hands in pregame and went with them during the contest."It's kind of a give-and-take and I felt more comfortable with them," explained Goff, who was 14 of 28 for 201 yards and one interception. "We are from Los Angeles, where it is hot and it's cold here. Having to go through that, feeling the cold, getting through that with a win is great. Once we got out there and were moving around, it wasn't much of a factor."Just another day at the office."A new experience Youth Todd Gurley II Jersey ," Rams defensive lineman Michael Brockers said. "I think we kind of showed the world, that just because you're from L.A., you can play in any kind of weather as long as you mentally prepare for it."Offensive lineman Rob Havenstein played at Wisconsin, where cold-weather games happen with frequency. But that was a few seasons ago. He's grown accustomed to the California sun since being selected by the Rams in the second round of the 2015 draft."I'm not as hardened as I once was in Wisconsin," cracked Havenstein, whose work up front with his fellow linemen allowed the Rams to finish with 270 yards on the ground. "This wasn't too cold. The wind wasn't breezy or anything like that. It wasn't snow flying down. It was cool getting in a little snow game."About that, tailback Malcolm Brown doesn't consider this a snow game even if there were a few flurries. Being from Texas, he wants his first snow game to be filled with plenty of accumulation."It was fun anyway," said Brown Brandin Cooks Jersey , who finished with 24 yards on five carries. "I'll play in any weather, as long as I'm playing ball."The cooler conditions didn't bother defensive tackle Aaron Donald. Then again, he's from Pittsburgh."Good football weather," Donald said. "It just reminded me of home. That's all it did."After the game, Gurley was asked how it felt to pick up chunks of yardage on virtually every carry."It's cool," Gurley said.A fitting response.
