What channel is Rams vs. 49ers on today? Schedule, time for 'Monday Night Football' in Week 4

West coast, best coast? Not quite, not yet.

It's always a fun time when the Rams and 49ers get together. The most recent meeting of the two NFC West rivals resulted in an excellent NFC Championship Game. Early in the 2022 season, though, neither team has exactly looked like those playoff teams from last year, but for different reasons.

The Rams seem to be suffering from something of a Super Bowl hangover: Matthew Stafford has thrown four touchdowns to a gaudy five interceptions through just three games, but the Rams have put their Week 1 shellacking at the hands of the Bills behind them to win two straight games.

The 49ers will have to continue to navigate their 2022 season without their starting quarterback Trey Lance, but the alternative is just fine in Jimmy Garoppolo. Garoppolo, who was the subject of trade rumors all throughout the offseason, is again the starter for the 49ers. Kyle Shanahan and Co. should count themselves lucky to have kept Garoppolo this offseason.
