Rams have plethora of offensive weapons.

On Sunday, the Lions have a chance to win their first playoff game since the 1991 season. It won’t come easy against Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams’ high-powered offense, though.

Let’s take a look now at five Rams players Detroit should be worried about going into its playoff game with L.A. this weekend.

WR Puka Nacua

Nacua has been one of the best stories in all of football this season. A fifth-round draft pick of the Rams last April, he’s taken the league by storm with not only his great hair but also his Pro Bowl-level production.

In Los Angeles’ regular season finale against San Francisco, Nacua set the NFL rookie record for both receptions (105) and yards (1,486) in a season.

“It’ll say Puka Nacua (in the record books), but I wish it could say everybody,” Nacua said after his record-breaking performance Sunday, per ESPN. “All 11 guys out there, because it really takes all 11. They should all feel that award just as much as I do, because I couldn’t do it without the guys in the front and obviously (quarterbacks) Matthew (Stafford) and Carson (Wentz) out there. Everybody was involved — it was sweet to feel myself, but the enjoyment from everybody made it more sweet.”
