  "account": "The Los Angeles Rams are set to face the Denver Broncos in a prime-time game on Sunday night, marking their third consecutive road opener. Both teams have turned their seasons around since their Week 1 struggles, with the Rams boasting an 8-1 record in their first road game of the season since 2017, with Matthew Stafford facing the Broncos fewer times than any other team in the NFL. The Broncos, on the other hand, have struggled defensively, allowing opponents to convert on third down at a 29th-place rate in the league. Finally, head coaches Sean McVay and Sean Payton have faced off four times previously, with McVay boasting a 3-1 record versus Payton, including the 2018 NFC title game victory.",
