Sunday’s San Francisco 49ers at Los Angeles Rams game is a crucially important battle for both teams as the playoffs quickly approach.
It could also be a physical battle with so much on the line, and in speaking with reporters Thursday, 49ers tight end George Kittle said that the matchup would be “kind of a bodybag game.”
ESPN’s Nick Wagoner provided the full quotes and context.

#49ers TE George Kittle on the importance of being the more physical team Sunday against Rams: “I think it’s going to definitely show up this Sunday about who is the more physical team and it’s going to be kind of a bodybag game is my opinion.”
The 49ers need either a win over the Rams or a New Orleans Saints loss to the Atlanta Falcons to make the playoffs.
The Rams will win the NFC West with a victory over San Francisco or an Arizona Cardinals loss to the Seattle Seahawks.
Naturally, these two teams will be going all out in a game that very well could be a physical affair.
That was the case in mid-November when San Francisco notably crushed L.A. 31-10. The 49ers took to the ground 44 times for 156 rushing yards.
L.A. has some added motivation in that the 49ers have beaten them five straight times. That’s on the Rams’ minds, and cornerback Jalen Ramsey addressed the streak with reporters Thursday (h/t NFL.com’s Nick Shook).
“Since I’ve been here, they’ve had our number,” Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey said, per a team transcript.
“It is frustrating, but they don’t have mind control over us, nothing like that if that’s what you’re asking. It’s just how the games have went. But we are going out there confident on Sunday. We’re not going out there thinking, ‘Ah, man, we’ve lost this many games.’ That is not our mindset at all. We’re definitely going out there confident.”
L.A. will be hosting San Francisco at 4:25 p.m. ET from SoFi Stadium.
