  I’ve planted the potted mums in the garden and packed away the scarecrows — now it’s time to deck the halls.

  INGLEWOOD — The Rams handled their business Sunday, as they should.
  Any real peril against the Detroit Lions and Jared Goff disappeared early in the second half of L.A.’s 41-34 victory. A field goal and two extended touchdown drives wiped out a 24-17 Detroit lead, and a 41-27 lead with 4:49 left ensured that nothing short of a Hail Mary ending would prevent the Rams from being the first NFL team to clinch a playoff spot in Week 15.

Their .735 points percentage in away games dwarfs their .429 mark at home, where they score more than a full goal less per game.
