WHO DAT, Saints Nation! WHO DAT!!!! A battle of NFC divisional leaders in action at Southern California, as our 8-2 and NFC North division leading New Orleans Saints are in Downtown Los Angeles to play the 7-2 and NFC West leading Los Angeles Rams.

Saints defensive backs Marcus Lattimore and Ken Crawley will not play this afternoon with their ankle and abdomen injuries, and did not practice last week.

Saints are playing the Rams for the first time for a NFL regular season game in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in 38 years. Saints beat the Rams in their last visit and game by the score of 29-14, at the Memorial Coliseum back on December 16, 1979.

New Orleans also followed the LA Rams when both teams play 14 regular season games between 1980 through 1994, before the LA Rams moved to St. Louis, MO, for the next 21 seasons, before arriving back the The City Of The Angels in January 2016.

Saints won 9 of the 14 regular season games at Anaheim, including winning the last game 31-15 back on December 4, 1994.

L.A. Rams though still leads the all-time series, including 1 postseason game, at 40 wins and 33 losses in today's 74th meeting.

A win by the Saints would make then acheive 9 wins, since New Orleans finished with 11-5 record in their 2013 NFL season.

Jim Nantz and former Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo are announcing the live TV game commentary, along with sideline reporter and interviewer Tracy Wolfson, for the NFL On CBS's primary single header game, seen regionally in the USA, and locally on WWL CBS Channel 4 in NOLA, live on HD.

Jim Henderson and former Saints RB Deuce Mc Allister are also announcing the live radio game play-by-play and analysis, along with sideline reporter and interviewer Kristin Garic, simulcast on The Gulf South's regional radio powerhouse, flagship stations
WWL 870AM and 105.3FM, the Saints Radio Network, and on your devices he WWL radio mobile app.

Mostly sunny skies at 65 degrees is the forecast inside the L.A. Memorial Coliseum, for the 3:25 Central Standard Time kickoff.

NO injuries, try to win your seventh straight game this afternoon, and GEAUX SAINTS!!!!! WHO DAT!!!!!

Coming back from taking the family to Cloud Canyon in Georgia. We stayed the night in Hattiesburg, MS....just narrowly escaping the explosion in Alabama....but should be back in place in Lake Charles for kick off.

I think we will live or die today on how well the middle of our DL performs against the run......or if we get out to such an early offensive onslaught that they abandon the run.
 
I really hope we can pull out a win today. It's unlikely that Atlanta, Philadelphia, or Carolina will lose this week.
 
Gotta wait to pull out the Dixie Blackened Voodoo (my gameday beer of choice - used to drink it every game in 2009 so I'm bringing it back) since this is an afternoon game.

Thank you OP for the historical background and breakdown of the game. Here's to hoping the Saints come out with a W and hopefully injury free!
 
There has to be Saints Nation faithful to represent our Saints the stands, during the game this afternoon. I'm going to see during the game if there are Saints fans there for team support as they play the Rams in LA. WHO DAT!!!
 
Rodney-Coleman and Dunbar are Rams inactives today.
 
At the stadium now. Right now looks about 50/50 Saints and Rams fans. Big black and gold turnout. Who Dat!!!
