Shohei Ohtani might be to the Rams what Taylor Swift is to the Kansas City Chiefs. As the Los Angeles Rams went against the Saints, Shohei Ohtani decided to grace the SoFi Stadium with his presence. In the wake of his newly signed contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ohtani chose to go around the city and see what it had to offer.
The Rams won the game 30-22 and gave their greatest fan the best gift possible. The game remained one-sided till the third quarter as the Rams scored at will. A comprehensive win on the home ground has left the fans in ecstasy. Still, the fan base is unhappy with the LA kickers and lets their frustration out.

The Rams’ trouble with kickers came out again as Lucas Havrisik missed a field goal during the first half. Havrisik replaced kicker Maher mid-season to help the Rams resolve their problems. But the replacement has not yielded any better results as Havrisik, too, manages a 75% field goal completion rate with just 16 kicks. Maher was too troubled with the field goal completion rate of 73.9 with 23 attempts. Rightly so, fans took a dig at the Rams’ kicker struggles and invited Ohtani to make a replacement.
