Fresh off a 37-point loss to the Seattle Seahawks last Sunday, the Jets travel back to the West Coast to face another NFC West contender.

Will this finally be the week the winless Jets are able to get into the win column in 2020?

New York's lowly offense will have its hands full against the Los Angeles Rams, a team that boasts one of the most dominant defenses in the entire NFL. The Rams allow a league-best 285.8 yards per game, a group that has Aaron Donald (who leads the league with 12.5 sacks entering play on Sunday).

Follow along right here at Jets Country for live score updates and analysis as this contest gets underway at SoFi Stadium.

Score Updates

Fourth Quarter

FINAL: Jets 23, Rams 20

Victory formation.

Los Angeles runs out of timeouts and the Jets run out the clock after converting a clutch first down. New York avoids the winless season and secures its first victory in 2020.

Jets 23, Rams 20

6:35: Rams nail another field goal to make this a three-point game.

Jets 23, Rams 17

13:47: Goff finds his tight end Tyler Higbee for a three-yard touchdown. This feels like the makings of another Jets fourth-quarter collapse...

Third Quarter

Jets 23, Rams 10

1:39: New York can't quite punch it in and settle for a field goal. That's the third time they've been unable to score a touchdown after driving deep into Rams territory. Still, the Jets are up by 13 as the third quarter draws to a close.

Jets 20, Rams 10

6:09: The Rams answer and show this game isn't over yet. Rams QB Jared Goff finds wideout Robert Woods for a 15-yard touchdown after an efficient 75-yard drive took less than three minutes.

Jets 20, Rams 3

8:30: Frank Gore powers it in on fourth down from the one yard line for a touchdown on the opening drive of the second half. How about an 11-play, 72-yard drive to start the third quarter?

Are the Jets actually going to win this thing?

Second Quarter

Jets 13, Rams 3

HALF: Los Angeles drove down the field and nearly found the end zone but with three seconds left, got on the board for the first time with a field goal. Some momentum entering the second half? Only time will tell...

Jets 13, Rams 0

7:37: After a one-handed interception by first-year corner Bryce Hall, the Jets end up with another three points courtesy of Sam Ficken. New York has left points on the board, settling for field goals on back-to-back drives starting in Rams territory.

Still, who would've thought New York would be leading by 13 early on...

Jets 10, Rams 0

12:44: Jets start the second quarter with a blocked punt. J.T. Hassell broke through to block the punt from Johnny Hekker. Jets can't capitalize as much as they would've liked with tremendous field position, settling for a field goal from Sam Ficken.

First Quarter

First quarter comes to a close and the Rams haven't been able to do anything on offense yet. They've gone three-and-out on both of their first two drives and are facing a lengthy third down to start the second quarter.

Jets 7, Rams 0

6:32: Capping off an impressive first drive for New York, going 4-for-4 on third down conversions, Sam Darnold finds running back Ty Johnson in the flat for an 18-yard touchdown pass. The Jets have now scored on their opening drive in eight consecutive games... That's the longest active streak in the NFL.
