Add Mike Evans to the list of people questioning the Los Angeles Rams' travel plans to Australia.

Following the San Francisco 49ers' 27-7 win over the Rams on Thursday night, Evans seemed baffled when he was told L.A. only arrived in Melbourne about 25 hours before kickoff.

Evans wasn't the only member of the 49ers who expressed skepticism about the Rams' plan. Fred Warner said he felt like the Niners were getting stronger as the game went on, while the Rams "withered away" late.

The Rams compressed their entire travel schedule into a 72-hour window starting with leaving from Los Angeles for Melbourne on Tuesday night.

San Francisco left for Australia on Sept. 2 and arrived on the morning of Sept. 4, giving the team one week to acclimate to the time difference.

The game certainly played out with the Rams looking like a team that just got off a cross-continent flight. Their offense put up seven points and 290 yards.

San Francisco had 174 rushing yards against the Rams defense after averaging 106.8 yards per game on the ground during the 2025 season.
