00:00But get him off his spot when
00:01it's a design drop back pass.
00:04That's when we have a chance to
00:05make some plays.
00:08The problem is if you don't get
00:09home you got one on one with
00:11Devontae Adams one on one with
00:13Pukin Akua one on one with these
00:15tight ends and right now they're
00:16skilled guys have been winning
00:18those matchups.
00:22We're down at 15 Stafford went
00:26to the end zone and that's
00:27incomplete.
00:27He was looking for the tight
00:30end Ferguson.
00:33Justin Reed got a hand on it and
00:35now the Rams will send out the
00:36field goal unit with 58 seconds
00:39on the clock and that is a very
00:40nice job defensively of
00:42recognizing where Matthew
00:44Stafford thought he had the
00:45matchup.
00:46It was a smaller Justin Reed on
00:48the six foot five Terence
00:50Ferguson.
00:51So then you had a little help
00:52from the safeties right.
00:53They start to go over there.
00:55They're nice awareness and that
00:56was a big stop.
00:57They needed this one right
00:58because it just felt like it was
01:00the Rams all day long just
01:02churning on the Saints defense.
01:06Cardi from thirty nine.
01:09Saints got a piece of it.
01:13So Justin Reed makes that last
01:16play in the end zone look like
01:18Reed again.
01:19Take a look at how quickly he
01:20gets off the ball and gets off the
01:21football turns the corner.
01:24Now it looks like he had to kick
01:25away from him that's why I went
01:26so far wide.
01:28Had he kicked it down the middle
01:30that would have been blocked by
01:31Justin Reed.
01:35Nice effort by Justin Reed.
01:37He's won a couple of Super Bowls with
01:40the Chiefs.
01:42He's made some good plays on defense
01:46and special teams throughout his
01:48career.
01:48He's even kicked an extra point.
01:51I just love that they are not
01:53quitting.
01:53You see the intensity.
01:55Sean McVay Chris Shuler Matthew
01:57Stafford they all said this is a
01:59tough team.
02:00Matthew Stafford said it's a bring
02:01your lunch pail game.
02:02You know they're going to be tough
02:03and physical like that.
02:05They're continuing to go man.
02:06They're trying.
02:07So now under a minute remaining
02:09Shucks pass caught by Shaheed.
02:12For a Saints first down out to the
02:1342.
02:14New Orleans has all three timeouts
02:16and they use one here.
02:17Gate of 13 from Shuck to Shaheed.
02:21Now this from Progressive.
02:25Johnny Bridgewater on the
02:26Buccaneers on their bye week.
02:28We saw them last week in New
02:30Orleans defeat the Saints.
02:3123 to 3 while the old veteran
02:35giving great advice.
02:37Yes.
02:39Now Shuck going deep for Shaheed
02:41and it's out of his reach with
02:45Forbes defending.
02:54I don't mind seeing more of those
02:55types of plays from Shuck.
02:58The speed he has with Alave.
02:59Rashid Shaheed Brandon Cooks.
03:02Also fast wide receiver.
03:03I am a OK with them if they'd
03:05start to just decide they're
03:06going to take these chunk shots
03:08these big shots chunk plays see
03:09if they can land a couple of
03:10them.
03:11There's nothing wrong with that.
03:13They even told us I'd love to
03:14take some shots.
03:15Yeah.
03:15I mean please do.
03:25Shot complete tight end Jawan
03:27Johnson.
03:29Another timeout.
03:32Taken by the Saints clock stops
03:34at 36 seconds.
03:36It will be third down and short
03:39going up against the Rams defense.
03:40They've allowed 10 points
03:42combined over their last two
03:44games.
03:47They held the Ravens to three the
03:49Jaguars to seven.
03:50Now the Saints have only three so
03:52far today.
03:53They'll front for Chris Shula
03:55their defensive coordinator.
03:56Their front four and really I
03:58should say front six or eight.
04:00They're ferocious and the
04:01defense today they have really
04:04taken it to the Saints
04:05offensively.
04:05You see the pressure coming from
04:07the defensive front the pressure
04:09from the blitz.
04:10They beginning sacks they
04:11heard the quarterback.
04:14They're living up to their
04:16billing of how good they can be
04:18defensively.
04:19Burr down at two.
04:20Chuck.
04:22Throws and is caught on the run.
04:26By Chris Olave.
04:30Byron Young he thinks he has a
04:31sack.
04:32He's actually going to come up
04:33and then he's going to retrace.
04:34He's done that so many times.
04:36Now Chuck spikes it.
04:38Nice job by Chuck.
04:40Able to.
04:42Shift out of the way of that
04:44pressure.
04:45And at a twenty seven yard
04:46completion to Chris Olave.
04:51See Byron Young bearing down on
04:53him.
04:54Thought he was going to get that
04:55sack instead.
04:56That is a beautiful ball by
04:57Chuck to Olave.
05:00Really like that he kept his
05:01eyes downfield.
05:02You see a lot of rookie
05:03quarterbacks.
05:04As soon as they start to take
05:05off head down and go instead
05:07he's trying to look for that
05:08big play.
05:09Saints are in field goal range.
05:10They have one timeout.
05:12Eighteen seconds.
05:13Chuck under pressure.
05:14Young.
05:15And a flag.
05:16Yes.
05:16He's going to go to the manager.
05:29Personal foul.
05:30Roughing the passer.
05:31Defense.
05:32Number zero.
05:33Fifteen yard bill.
05:34Automatic.
05:35Close down.
05:38Referees are calling it tight
05:39today.
05:40He's going up against Taliesse
05:42Kouwaga feeds him around the
05:44corner.
05:46Let's look.
05:47It looks the helmet to helmet
05:49contact is why they're calling
05:50roughing the passer.
05:56Good call by the officials but
05:58it takes away from a really nice
06:00play by Byron Young that would
06:02have been his 10th sack of the
06:03season.
06:04These are Rams and Saxon.
06:06He has improved tremendously
06:08from last year to now.
06:11He's an every down outside
06:12linebacker.
06:1313 seconds remaining.
06:15One timeout.
06:17From the Rams 11.
06:20Chuck throws.
06:21Caught.
06:22Taking it to the end zone for a
06:23touchdown by Jawan Johnson.
06:26Here's Jawan Johnson and he's
06:41really just going to sit down in
06:42the zone.
06:47As soon as he sits.
06:48Nate Landman overruns it.
06:50Nice job by Chuck throwing it on
06:54target allows for Jawan Johnson
06:56to make a play with that
06:57football.
06:58And just like that Saints are
07:00back in it.
07:01Nice drive by the Saints offense.
07:03Terrific drive of the first
07:04touchdown pass for Tyler Chuck
07:06in his National Football League
07:08career.
07:09Yeah.
07:09And how about Tyler Chuck the
07:10pressure he's been under the
07:12duress he's been under and he's
07:14been as calm as can be just look
07:16at that throwing the football he
07:17had the time to do it.
07:19We saw a very nice time he went
07:20he rolled out a little bit kind of
07:22got flushed out of the pocket
07:23makes a nice play to Olave and
07:26this is good looking football for
07:27the Saints and very encouraging
07:29for Saints offense if Chuck is
07:31going to continue to play like
07:32that.
07:35After they held the Rams without a
07:37point the missed field goal the
07:38pressure from Justin Reed all of
07:41a sudden it's a ten point game.
07:42You start to see what the Saints
07:44can be.
07:44They haven't turned the ball over
07:46which is very good.
07:47Well that's the key that brought
07:49over is the last two weeks.
07:50That's correct.
07:51They haven't turned the ball over
07:52that's first and foremost the
07:54defense starting to wake up a
07:55little bit.
07:56They stopped the Rams there
07:57missed the field goal and then
07:58Chuck is able to take the ball
07:59down and score.
08:01That's really good for the
08:02momentum going into the half.
08:05After three consecutive three
08:07in the White House to start the
08:07game they received a bit of a
08:09spark from Taysom Hill who came
08:11in had that twenty nine yard
08:12run which led to a Saints field
08:14goal and now Chuck with the best
08:17drive that we've seen in his
08:19brief NFL career came out of the
08:21second half last week and
08:24they'll keep that football for
08:25Tyler Shuck well as he throws
08:27his first touchdown pass to
08:29Juwan Johnson.
08:30What made it even more
08:31impressive was that it was a
08:32two minute drive obvious
08:34passing down.
08:35So you're going up against the
08:36second best pass rushing a
08:38student.
08:39Yes.
08:39Pass rushing defense in the Rams
08:41they have twenty six sacks.
08:42They couldn't get anything on
08:44Shuck.
08:44He scrambles and makes some
08:45plays.
08:45The one sack they thought they
08:47had was the helmet to helmet
08:48hit by Young.
08:49Right.
08:50So the Saints with some momentum
08:51Rams will get the ball first in
08:54the third quarter time to get
08:55more stats with Geico.
08:58Chuck with the touchdown pass
08:59moments ago Stafford brilliant
09:0118 of 23 three touchdown passes
09:05to Higby Adams and Akua.
09:08So a 10 point lead for the Rams
09:11there at SoFi.
09:12The Verizon halftime with Kurt
09:14and the gang coming up next.
09:16almighty Christ the
09:33second Estamos
09:34begins.
09:34Got a chance to watch
09:36me since I 여기
09:37might have before I
09:37because I am a
09:39guy making stuff
09:40at Sheep
09:40shows a
09:43be
09:45today's game flow presented by progressive and our steve malone first half summary with the
10:00rams leading by 10 tyler shuck with his first career touchdown pass to jawan johnson matthew
10:06stafford outstanding in the first half three tds the rams with close to 300 total yards
10:14over the first two quarters
10:16white groupie second half underway as he boots it downfield
10:31into the end zone moments ago megan with rams head coach sean mcveigh coach a lot of positives
10:43there on both sides of the ball in the first half but what are you looking for as we start this
10:47second i want to see us really start this half the way we started the game megan defense has been
10:51outstanding we had a big sack that you know they ended up calling the personal foul which was the
10:55right call we got to change our target and then offensively we just got to finish in the red zone
10:59but i'm excited to see us come out and do what we're capable of thank you so much coach
11:03sean buffett's rams looking to win their third consecutive game start from the 20
11:10play corn takes the handoff from stafford
11:22and it's seven on first down that's why they drafted blake forum they really like him between the tackles
11:33I remember watching him at michigan he was very natural between the tackles very patient runner so
11:39they go in at 13 personnel three tight ends davante adams the only wide receiver and then they let blake
11:45corns basically pick where he's going to go between the tackles and they can do that get five six yards a
11:51clip it's going to be a long day for the second half for the saints
11:53second down and three here's core locked in taylor
12:02third down coming up for los angeles
12:09like the aggressive nature which the saints are coming back out here with elante taylor
12:15I was hard on him early on he gave up a touchdown and a penalty in the red zone actually two touchdowns in
12:21the in the red zone that time coming up filling up in the run game brings up this third and short for matthew staffer in this offense
12:30right now they're going to do like a little half fly motion with blake forum trying to figure out if it's manner zone
12:36right now
12:45Stafford on third down it's complete to davante adams
12:49for a ramps first down out to the 32 right and they knew it was going to be zoned because when blake quorum
12:55came back into the box there was nobody that actually ran with him into the box so
12:59Matthew Stafford davante adams on the same page they saw what we saw up top
13:03everybody was going to drop out so as soon as he got to the first down yardage turns around balls right there for first down
13:11Adams with a touchdown reception back in the second quarter
13:17and then they're back now to this personnel you have three tight ends at the top of the screen davante adams at the bottom of blake quorum at the running back spot
13:25back spot
13:29Stafford with time fires downfield is looking for adams that it's justin reed on the coverage
13:37very well covered by justin reed
13:39he didn't bite on the double move and i like that he's going looking back at the football
13:44davante adams tried to push off just a little bit in that time davante known for his separation didn't get
13:50any with the nice play by justin reed
13:54thought he could have had the interception they're going to take a quick little breather but brandon
13:59staley said that he had his best game last week versus the bucks versus the bucks he likes the way that he's starting to come along
14:06read all through that field goal attempt earlier would have put the rams up by 20.
14:1120.
14:13saints were able to come down and score a touchdown
14:1710-point game
14:19this is parkinson as stafford continues
14:23to find his tight ends and colby parkinson
14:26games eight out to the 40.
14:30nice safety outlet for
14:32Matthew Stafford ball a little bit high for stafford
14:38able to corral that and
14:50bring out and two coming up for stafford on the ramps
14:54with the play clock winding down
14:56with the strikeouts down
15:00shaman they will take a time out
15:04now this
15:07shaman failures a good timeout
15:09third down and two
15:11upcoming for Matthew Stafford and the rams
15:26That's right Kenny somebody better there's Cora Cora picks up the first to the forty three first down and
15:43Shawn McVeigh we had talked to him about leadership he's very very big on reading leadership folks and
15:50likes to develop relationships with other coaches who have had success and he mentioned his relationships
15:55with Joe Missoula Steve Kerr the most interesting one was the Arsenal head coach
16:01Michaela Tartan McKellar Teto and him have really gotten a bond and he said that he
16:06applies a lot of what he does for us to know who's first in the Premier League by
16:10the way to what he's done now with the Rams also owned by the Rams ownership
16:15group Stan Kroenke and his family that's Cora with an excellent second effort finally
16:22the track down by Alante Taylor as we head downstairs Megan we guys mentioned Sean McVeigh's
16:27relationship with Joe Mazzola the head coach of the Boston Celtics he said we're both younger
16:32coaches so we were really drawn to one another they're able to lean on each other about navigating
16:37consistency and challenges and different frames of mind and how they can relate to their teams
16:41but be effective leaders he said you know we are both really tough head coaches but they
16:46a lot of similarities with how they approach the game and Joe Mazzola an avid jiu-jitsu
16:51practitioner he is trying to get Sean McVeigh in there so we'll see if he enters the gym
16:54anytime soon guys Sean said he was gonna start taking up a little jiu-jitsu I don't know if I
17:00believed him though play action Stafford taken down back at the 41 yard line
17:08there is a flag
17:11quarterback down back on that third down Jonah Williams brings down Matthew Stafford
17:21Jonah Williams lining up at the defensive tackle spot and he's just going to keep pushing the pocket
17:25as soon as he pushes the pocket then he finally releases off of Steve Avila
17:30gets the sack and a nice job defensively I mean the defense the second half it looks like they have really
17:35started to come out the tackling was better now you can see the aggression from the front four
17:41brings up this third and long and I already know where puka and
17:46you're going to call a timeout to challenge
17:49keller moore has thrown the challenge flag
17:53challenge of Matthew Stafford being down by contact yep
17:57you're always challenging the ruling on the field that the runner was down by contact play is under review
18:12so they will take a look at the previous play
18:16the sack by Williams
18:20then the ball came loose back in a moment
18:28the ruling on the field stands we chatted with our Mike Pereira during the break there's Stafford's knee
18:33it was down before the ball came loose it was a beanbag not a flag that was thrown by the official once the ball
18:40did come loose but
18:42it is not a turnover
18:44throw down at 11 for the Rams
18:48Stafford finds his man Adams for Rams first down
18:52out at the Saints 30 yard line finally brought down by Jordan Howden just watch the protection
19:01of Rob Havenstein comes back off of an ankle injury
19:05does a very nice job giving Matthew Stafford a time Devontae Adams a time to run that route
19:11that was a deep route needed the protection and Stafford throws it on the money to his guy for a first down
19:17down
19:18dead of 28
19:21haven started missed the last three games
19:31from the 30 on first down it's quorum
19:34bounces to the outside
19:36look at Rob Havenstein before the game
19:45with his daughters how beautiful is that that that is just great
19:50as I mentioned he had ankle injury
19:52coming back he's healthy protecting well offense is doing go but this is
19:56it gets no better than that Kenny
19:59haven't started the only ram remaining from the St. Louis days
20:01he's taking it way back now it is 11th season
20:13three tight ends on the field for the Rams second down at six
20:20inside the 20 is quorum still going
20:24and brought down at the 16
20:27perfect block by Davis Allen gate of 10 and a Rams first down
20:31and I mentioned earlier that Blake quorum has learned this from Kyron Williams
20:36how to stay on track before he would be a little too
20:39impatient as you know rookies are and then this year
20:42you can see the progression that he just runs he stays on his track
20:46forces the defense to either make a play or they're going to be short just like they were
20:50gets around the corner makes a nice game and gets the first down and
20:54speaking of Karen Williams he's been on the sideline the whole time
20:57Blake quorum has taken all the touches he has not been in the game yet
21:01or not in the second half
21:05from the 16 it's quorum again
21:10quorum earlier
21:12how that
21:1421 yard run longest of his career and
21:17Rams have stuck with him
21:20there in the third quarter
21:21yeah now he's taking a little breather Karen Williams is going to come into the game now
21:27that's a nice one two combination that they're building Karen Williams I've been very high on him
21:32the past three seasons I think he's that second tier the best of that second tier of running backs and
21:37top tier being the Derrick Henry's of the world Saquon Barkley's only thing he's missing is that
21:42breakaway speed everything else he's got in Karen Williams so now with Blake quorum being able to
21:47compliment him it's a really good run game for the Rams second down and nine nice catch
21:54well attempted catch by Adams look like you had it initially but it's an incomplete pass
22:00it'll be third down at nine and just take a look at Quincy Riley he's going to get in there
22:06nice job putting that left arm on the football forcing the ball out nice pass breakup by him look at that
22:13yeah usually Devontae catches that
22:15he was trying to corral it back into his body that was a very nice job by Quincy Riley
22:22rookie out of Louisville yeah he's in at the outside corner spot
22:26Elante Taylor is now playing nickel you see them both at the top of the screen
22:3114th play of the drive for the Rams
22:34Stouffer to the outside this time Adams makes the catch or excuse me it's the co-op
22:44and this is so challenging for defense because you have two of the best guys on one side so if I'm the
22:58secondary and I'm the corner I'm looking and saying all right do I sit on puka do I sit on Devontae if you
23:03don't do either then you get the completion and now the Rams going for on this fourth and short
23:08here a stop just short on the first down
23:13fourth down and one seventh catch for the court today
23:16that's the first down as the kid is to the court
23:26the jet sweep the Rams with a new set it down this is a nice job on the jet sweep this is what they've
23:33been missing right there is no wide receiver for the Rams that can run it the way he does he gets those
23:38tough yards and keeps going back to everything about him is tough now it's kind of favoring that right
23:44shoulder might have landed on that on that run though hopefully he's going to be okay you see the
23:50trainers taking a look at him man they just got puka back today hate to see him go out again for
23:56another extended period corn in the backfield first and goal
24:00Stafford looking for Adams in the end zone he's got it touchdown his second today
24:24Devontae torched Jacksonville two weeks ago in the red zone
24:28he's doing the same thing to the Saints cornerbacks he did it against elante taylor with the slant in the
24:33first half just got another touchdown and puka going into the locker room
24:42so puka to cool up injured on that prior play goes back from the ankle injury
24:50it's almost like the gift in the curse with puka right he plays so tough
24:54but he gets himself hurt
24:58that's the point is good fourth touchdown pass today for Stafford nine over the last two games
25:11Matthew Stafford nine touchdown passes over his last two games it's the most
25:16in a two game span in franchise history and we still have just over 20 minutes remaining
25:26a 16 play drive it lasted
25:30nearly 10 minutes
25:31a lot of development story as puka nakua
25:35headed to the locker room we are called it is a chest injury and he is questionable
25:40to return right there to Mario Davis when he makes the tackle puka lands on the football
25:47landed right on his chest and you're gonna see him wincing in pain right there as he's trying to get up
25:52the chest injuries you ever have any similar injury if so what does that feel like you know what the
26:00closest I had was getting the wind knocked out of me and that one it takes a second to
26:06frankly just gather I never had anything that serious with the chest so hopefully he's going to be okay
26:12same start for the thirty five here's Cabara
26:15you're the first half
26:17only five touches similar to the game last week against the Tampa Bay Bucs and what you've seen it was
26:23I backs you had Jack stole as a pullback he's really the blocking tight end they just don't have that in their
26:30schematic so the offense I mean they are a spread offense they like the gun they like shotgun they like the
26:37you know offsetting Camara empty personnel so
26:42it unfortunately for Camara the offense isn't built for him to be an Ibacks ring the football
26:50empty backfield second and seven
26:53shot throws at his clock going up
26:56reaching up to make the catch is Johnson who has the Saints touchdown
27:00he's going up to make the catch
27:02Tyler Shaw
27:03Shucks look like Jerry verse actually tipped that football so nice job by Juwan Johnson
27:09yeah Jerry verse did tip that football good concentration by Juwan Johnson to make the catch
27:17there's Cabara
27:20uh-oh they're saying a fumble
27:22Rams say they have it
27:30there's a little bit of a Rams football
27:36Crystal still discussing it
27:38Oh
27:39the football the football by Los Angeles
27:41is down
27:42there will be Rams football
27:49Camara trying to fight for extra yards
27:52Nate Landman punches right at the football
27:54I mean, that's a textbook peanut punch at the football by Nate Landman.
28:03And then it was recovered by Cam Cameron Jenkins.
28:10Nate Landman punched it out.
28:12First turnover of today's game.
28:15And there's a celebration.
28:17I remember seeing Peanut Tillman, Chicago Bears, cornerback, doing that a thousand times.
28:22Nate Landman's seen it, too, and gets a forced fumble.
28:24And then a five for Williams on first down.
28:29Four turnovers in each of the last two games committed by the Saints, and that's the first today.
28:37Yeah, this is, to be very frank, bad football.
28:40You turn the ball over that many times.
28:42It's already tough for the offense to score.
28:44You have a rookie quarterback.
28:45You need every possession you can get in order to have a chance to win.
28:50It was Spencer Rattler who committed six of the eight over the prior two games.
28:55One of the main reasons for the change at the quarterback position.
28:58Second down at five, and Williams stays on his feet.
29:06Takes it all the way down to the 32-yard line of the Saints, a gate of 15.
29:11Yeah, just watch 58, Chris Rump.
29:14He's going to get caught too far inside, and that's what I mean about Kyron Williams making you play honest.
29:20As soon as he goes inside, he bounces outside, he has the speed to do it, breaks a couple more tackles.
29:28What I really like, he puts two hands on the football.
29:30You just saw Alvin Kamara get that ball punched out.
29:33He gets two hands on the football, make sure he doesn't turn the football over.
29:36He gets a last one.
29:38Sit up.
29:39You ain't even have to wait.
29:40I don't have to go.
29:41Too late.
29:43From the 32, it's Williams.
29:49And Williams is close to another first down.
29:54Rams with a 17-point lead and looking to extend it.
29:59Just watch the way he sets up
30:01his block right at the end he's
30:03going to go and then he dips
30:05back inside.
30:06Why does he do that because it
30:07freezes all the linebackers.
30:09I've been there before I've
30:10watched Adrian Pearson do it to
30:12me where they freeze you inside.
30:14It allows the offensive lineman
30:15now to get that angle on you and
30:17then he burst through that hole
30:18for another eight yards.
30:22Hundred thirty eight yards on
30:23the ground for the Rams.
30:24They put together some long
30:25scoring drives twelve plays
30:27eleven plays sixteen plays.
30:31They have a huge lead in time of
30:32possession.
30:34Now a timeout is taken by
30:36Sean McVay his second.
30:40Start your Saturday strong with the
30:43unstoppable second ranked Indiana
30:46Hoosiers.
30:47All eyes are on Fernando Mendoza
30:49as he leads Indiana and continues
30:52his Heisman campaign against
30:54Penn State.
30:55It all starts with big noon
30:57kickoff 10 Eastern and then
30:59Indiana and Penn State good
31:01noon Saturday only on Fox.
31:06I've watched now Ohio State play.
31:07I've watched Indiana play.
31:09There is a real argument to make
31:11that Indiana could be number one
31:12Ohio State number two.
31:13But I mean that'll all get settled
31:15right.
31:15They are on a collision course to
31:17the Big Ten championship.
31:20It's Chris Shuler who coached at
31:22Indiana when they were at the
31:24other end of the spectrum.
31:29Second down or while the Rams
31:31without the injury to cool.
31:35This looks to be just short.
31:38Now Chris Shuler Sean McVay Brandon
31:43Staley the Saints defensive
31:45coordinator all very close
31:47friends Staley was recommended to
31:49McVay by Chris Shuler.
31:53McVay said that he didn't know
31:55Brandon Staley before the
31:57interview rushed the interview
31:59knocked it out the park said we
32:00got to hire this guy.
32:01The ball came loose at the end of
32:06the play.
32:09We'll say it's trying to convince
32:10the officials officials finally
32:15have the ball they still haven't
32:16really decided what's going on.
32:23I think there we go.
32:24Third down.
32:25Saints trying to convince them
32:27otherwise.
32:29The Brandon Staley was.
32:30here in L.A. with Sean McVay back
32:33in the 2020 season.
32:37That was during the COVID years
32:38and he said that they had really
32:40bonded back then remember it was
32:42isolation everything and they
32:44spent so much time together
32:46during practice.
32:49For down the Rams to pick up the
32:51first.
32:54So there's McVay with Staley so
32:57John Carroll University.
32:59Chris Shuler was Don Shuler's
33:01alma mater.
33:02Yep.
33:02The Hall of Famer Chris's
33:03grandfather Don played there in
33:05Ohio.
33:06So Chris Shuler.
33:09Replaced.
33:11Staley.
33:12Staley as defensive coordinator at
33:14John Carroll.
33:16And then remember what Shuler said
33:18about how he got the job.
33:20He was at Indiana where they were
33:21the worst of the worst.
33:22So his pitches was just not going to
33:25be as bad as Indiana.
33:27So just give me a shot here.
33:29And then Chris Shuler who went to
33:30college with Sean McVay recommended
33:32Staley.
33:34It all comes full circle.
33:35The Rams with a 17-point lead on the move.
33:49Saints ran only three plays in the
33:52third quarter.
33:53They turned it over.
33:54And now the Rams look to capitalize.
33:57Back to Williams on first down.
34:02Passes caught by the tight end.
34:04Davis Allen.
34:08Another first down for the Rams.
34:09As Matthew Stafford continues his
34:13outstanding season.
34:16He's had some great second halves.
34:18First time in his career.
34:19He's thrown at least four touchdown
34:21passes in back to back games.
34:23He needs to be included in the
34:24MVP conversation.
34:26I'm just not understanding why he's
34:28not getting more recognition.
34:30What he's doing is outstanding.
34:32It's as good as any quarterback in
34:33the league right now.
34:34They're five and two.
34:35They got a big matchup next week
34:36against the 49ers.
34:38But just look at how smoothly this
34:39offense runs.
34:41There's Kyron Williams.
34:44Williams stumbling forward.
34:47Finally down inside the two.
34:49And how about this Stafford
34:51including the touchdowns today.
34:5421 TDs.
34:55Two interceptions.
34:56This is just amazing.
34:58Right.
34:58And we're watching Kyron Williams
34:59gets in there.
35:00He's tough.
35:01Bounces off those tackles.
35:03You got to wrap him up.
35:04Smaller guy.
35:05Built low to the ground.
35:06Fighting forward.
35:07Almost gets a touchdown.
35:08But going back to Matthew Stafford,
35:10as you said, I mean, 21 touchdowns,
35:12two interceptions.
35:13It just doesn't make any sense to me
35:15that he wouldn't be top two, top three
35:17in MVP candidates right now.
35:18going back to Matthew Stafford.
35:19He throws through the back of the end zone.
35:32Looking at David Salen, he puts his hand up.
35:37He's like, just throw it up there.
35:39Throw it up there.
35:39Throw it up there.
35:40Oh, close.
35:40No cigar.
35:45I see that they're bringing back Devontae Adams.
35:47We've seen him towards Jacksonville.
35:48He's coming back.
35:48He already beat Elante Taylor and Kool-Aid
35:50McKinstry.
35:51And there he is at the bottom of the screen.
35:54So, I imagine you're going to watch that
35:56matchup down there.
35:58Third and Cole Williams stopped short.
36:05There's poking a cooler back on the
36:07sidelines with his helmet on.
36:09And there he is at the bottom of the
36:10screen.
36:11So, I imagine you're going to watch
36:12that matchup down there.
36:13There's poking a cooler back on the
36:24sidelines with his helmet on.
36:28Very good news for the Rams and you
36:32see him there.
36:33Can't imagine he's going to go right
36:35into into this game here.
36:37It's a fourth and goal.
36:41I like that he gets as close as he
36:42could do it to Sean McVay.
36:45Would you?
36:46Yeah, I definitely would.
36:48It's like, just letting you know, I'm
36:50here.
36:50I'm here if you need me, coach.
36:51Meanwhile, the Bay's already down by
36:53the goal line.
36:54There's Williams.
36:55He's in.
36:56Touchdown.
36:58Byron Williams.
37:09Just watch the blocking.
37:10Davis Allen, the tight end.
37:11You're going to watch the block that
37:13he makes.
37:14He's going in and he's going to come
37:15right in for a nice block.
37:17Sealing it for Karen Williams.
37:20Follows his blockers.
37:21I've mentioned it all game.
37:23He forces the defense to get off
37:26track to make a play.
37:27If you don't do it, you're going to
37:28get touchdowns.
37:29And that's what it is for the Rams
37:31offense.
37:32Nice job and nice execution by the
37:33Rams.
37:37Karen Williams has been a
37:38touchdown machine for those Los
37:39Angeles Rams over the last several
37:43seasons.
37:44The extra point is good.
37:47On fourth and goal.
37:50Williams takes it in.
37:54And the base celebrates.
38:04And it's the fourth story drive of at
38:06least ten plays for the Rams today.
38:10Karen Williams with his sixth
38:12touchdown of the season.
38:15As Shaheed takes it in.
38:17And remember that was set up by the
38:19Rams defense.
38:20Nate Landman punching the ball out.
38:24First turnover of the game and the
38:26Rams capitalize.
38:27A look back at halftime as military
38:31flags out of the field.
38:33Fox Sports proudly partners with the
38:35Travis Manion Foundation to invest
38:37in veterans and families of the
38:38fallen to lead and serve in their
38:41communities.
38:42Visit Travis Manion.org to learn
38:45more.
38:47Just look at the yards this half.
38:51Eighteen for the Saints.
38:52Over 100 for the Rams.
38:55This will be only the fourth play.
38:57The Saints run in the second half.
39:01And it's a first down.
39:02Shaheed in Rams territory.
39:05Rams 26 plays in the second half.
39:07And now the Saints have run four.
39:10You're going to see Shaheed.
39:11He's going to fake like he's
39:12breaking in.
39:13He's been doing it all game.
39:14Then bounces back outside.
39:17Nice job by Tyler Shuck.
39:20Nice throw and catch.
39:21They're basically going to live in
39:23this kind of two-minute hurry-up
39:24offense.
39:25It's a 26-yard pickup.
39:28Tyler Shuck making his first NFL
39:30start.
39:31Came out of relief last week.
39:34You're making it.
39:35You're making it.
39:36You're making it.
39:37You're making it.
39:38From the Rams 39.
39:41Thank to Neil.
39:42And.
39:43Shuck throws and it's caught by a
39:44lobbing.
39:45Those are two very nice looking
39:46balls by Tyler Shubbs.
39:49He's throwing those on a rope all
39:54the way outside the numbers.
39:56Those that was very impressive.
39:57Both throws consistent on the
39:59money.
40:00You got one to Shaheed fast guy.
40:02Olave another fast guy.
40:04Twenty four yard connection.
40:05Now Taysom Hill is in the back
40:06field.
40:07About a twenty nine yard run
40:08earlier.
40:09Yeah.
40:10And you hear Nate Landman right
40:11now one of those tags that I
40:12mentioned in the first half.
40:13Getting the defensive line for
40:14Taysom Hill that running back.
40:15From the 15 it's Hill.
40:16Cuts to the outside.
40:17Oh nice tackle.
40:18Nice tackle.
40:19And so you see what the Rams
40:20did the tag is to make sure that
40:23every hole inside is clogged up.
40:24And then it's going to bounce
40:25outside that's not going to
40:28bounce outside.
40:29That's not to make sure that
40:31every hole inside is clogged up.
40:32And it's going to bounce
40:33outside it's not going to bounce
40:35outside.
40:36That's not times the top here
40:39but no you know the team
40:41that was going to bounce
40:43He's going to bounce outside.
40:44That's not Taysom Hill's strength bouncing outside.
40:46You see Emmanuel Forbes with a very nice tackle.
40:49He's built to be inside trying to run through guys, run between the tackles.
40:53So that's a good tag from Chris Shula.
40:55Nice execution by the defense.
41:02We have not seen Kamara on this drive.
41:05He committed the turnover on the last Saints possession.
41:08Had the ball knocked loose by Lambin.
41:11Second down and eight.
41:13Shot complete.
41:13It's Neal.
41:16Neal shoved out of bounds by Kitchens.
41:22Third down and seven.
41:25We talked to Kelly Moore about the change.
41:27He said the quarterback battle at camp was very close.
41:31It's not a knock on Spencer Rattler.
41:32He played some good football.
41:34But as we mentioned, turnovers were an issue.
41:38And Shucks made some nice throws today.
41:39If that's correct, it wasn't only the turnovers by Spencer Rattler.
41:43That was a big issue.
41:44But he really talked about Tyler Shuck being improved every week when he's going against the Scott team.
41:50He's done a nice job.
41:52We're down at seven.
41:54Shuck.
41:55Complete.
41:57Shaheed.
42:00Close to a first down.
42:01And it will be marked just short.
42:08Now it's fourth down.
42:09Shuck is actually going out of the game.
42:11Taysom Hill is going to be at that quarterback position.
42:14They like to run the power row.
42:15Quarterback, power row.
42:17Quarterback sweep.
42:17They have the unbalanced line.
42:25You actually have an extra offensive lineman right over there with the tight end.
42:30Well, it's hell, and he will not get there.
42:32Pulled down from behind by Kobe Turner.
42:35You can only run this play so many times before the defense catches on.
42:43Kobe Turner rips right up the field.
42:46And what you have is a defensive tackle against a tight end in Jawan Johnson.
42:50No chance for a nice play by the defense shutting down that Saints offense.
42:54There's offensive coordinator talking with Tyler Shucks.
43:01And the positive is Shuck had some very nice throws.
43:04You see the trainer working on his calf there.
43:06But I really like the way that he got the ball out there.
43:09He was on time with it.
43:11Unfortunately, the start, the drive stalled for him.
43:15There's Coram on first down as we head to Kurt Benefee for a game.
43:22All right, thanks, Kurt.
43:23There's Puka Nakua still has the helmet on on the sideline.
43:26Suffered a chest injury earlier.
43:30And no need for him to go back in.
43:31The Rams are up 24 points.
43:34Offense has been living in this 13 personnel, three tight ends, one wide receiver, one running back.
43:41It's been a big day for the tight ends.
43:43There's Coram on second and nine.
43:47Nakua with seven catches in his return.
43:50Most career receptions over the first 35 games in NFL history.
43:57We'll look at the 13 personnel you mentioned.
44:00They've run 30 plays.
44:02Yeah, 13 personnel.
44:04The first digit is always the number of wide receivers.
44:07The second digit, the number of tight ends.
44:09So one is of one wide receiver, three tight ends, 13 personnel.
44:14And with that, you have three really good tight ends in Higby, Davis Allen.
44:18And then you have Terrence Ferguson, who they drafted.
44:21So they've been able to have the run plays out of it, the play action out of it.
44:25And they've had some deep shots with the Terrence Fergussons of the world.
44:28That's why they've been able to live with him and have so much success.
44:31There's Coram.
44:32He stays on his feet.
44:33We've seen Colby Parkinson as well.
44:35And now Coram gets swallowed up.
44:37So the Rams will punt it away with just under eight minutes remaining in this fourth quarter.
44:46Yeah, going back to the 13 personnel, it's really challenging because there's only so many defensive fronts
44:51that you can run versus it, right?
44:53You don't have nickel personnel versus 13.
44:56You have to stay in base.
44:58If you stay in base, then you're going to be short one person on the edge.
45:02So then you try to bring a safety down.
45:03It becomes very challenging schematically trying to defend the 13 personnel,
45:08especially with a guy like Stafford.
45:10And if you have a Devontae Adams as the wide receiver.
45:13This is only the second time.
45:15Evans will punt today.
45:17From his end zone.
45:21Shaheed settles under it.
45:23About the 40.
45:25Rashid Shaheed.
45:27Broke down just shy of midfield.
45:3150-yard punch.
45:32From Southern California on Fox.
45:44The Rams hosted 15 Marine veterans at practice in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the Marine Corps.
45:52Also at the game today for Military Role of Honor.
45:57Salute to Service Day here at SoFi Stadium.
45:59Man, thank you.
46:01A big thank you from us up here in the booth.
46:05The Marines, we couldn't be doing this without them.
46:07They provide us the protections that we need.
46:12On first count, it's Neil.
46:14As we check in with Megan.
46:18Well, speaking of Marines, Jared vs. Father Eric served in the Marine Corps,
46:22and he said the main thing he learned from him was obviously discipline.
46:25He said he can't even sleep past 9 a.m. anymore because his dad was always waking him up at 5 or 6 every single morning for workouts.
46:31But he saw all the hard work and effort his dad put in, and he tries to do the same thing on the football field, guys.
46:38That's Megan.
46:39Shaheed makes the catch for a first down.
46:41We had a great chat with Jared vs. the other day.
46:44He told us about bench pressing a futon.
46:47Yes, during the COVID pandemic when you had to try and find things to do inside your house or apartment.
46:54That's right.
46:55Both feet down for Rashid Shaheed.
46:57But we talked with Jared vs.
46:59I really wanted to understand, like, who was kind of the one that wanted to get the weights in the COVID and work out.
47:06And he said, it was me, man.
47:08I was bench pressing a futon.
47:10My dad saw that, said, hmm, that's ghetto.
47:13We got to buy you some gym equipment.
47:14He said he had to Google some potential workouts during that time frame.
47:23And then went nonstop, right?
47:24He said he worked out every day.
47:26He wouldn't take any rest.
47:28Even his dad, ex-Marine, was saying, look, you've got to rest.
47:31He wouldn't do it.
47:32Instead, he puts on 30 pounds of pure muscle, then becomes a first-round pick for the St. Louis, for Los Angeles Rams.
47:39He didn't do it.
47:40He didn't do it.
47:42He didn't do it.
47:42He didn't do it.
47:43He didn't do it.
47:43He didn't do it.
47:43He didn't do it.
47:44It was so fun.
47:46Jared vs. now in his second season out of Florida State.
47:4919th overall pick last year.
47:51Won the Defensive Rookie of the Year Award.
47:56He was so fun to talk with.
47:57And I really enjoyed watching his games last year, seeing the improvement.
48:01this year I mentioned it where
48:03he said the play recognition he
48:05said that's improved tenfold now
48:07I know what they're doing I know
48:08how they're coming after me and
48:10with that he knows how to play
48:12and what I really like was Chris
48:13Shula saying that he wants to be
48:15coached hard he wants to be
48:16coached tough he's okay getting
48:18called out in front of everybody
48:20and that's a sign of a good
48:22leader right tackle for Waga left
48:24the field shaken up replaced by
48:26Richards for down in four Chuck
48:31to the near side ball came loose
48:34it's an incomplete pass Johnson
48:37defended by Forbes Forbes knocked
48:44it loose nice job Forbes clean
48:46that up but Samara and Taysom Hill
48:49come in along with Chuck it's
48:52going down and now you see a
48:54change of personnel from Chris
48:56Shula Josiah Stewart he's been
48:58playing really good football for
49:00him he's a rookie from Georgia he
49:02comes into the game as well and
49:04they're gonna put six guys up on
49:06the line of scrimmage everybody
49:08else back hell bottom of your
49:10screen fourth down and four
49:13shot is picked off could not find a
49:18receiver and Emmanuel Forbes comes up
49:23with the interception
49:24the reason why Chris Shula makes
49:33sure to have all six guys up on the
49:35line he wants to make sure that his
49:39defensive front all gets one on one
49:41so take a look at verse goes one on
49:46one versus Kelvin Banks he's the
49:48one that puts the hit on Tyler
49:50Shuff Tyler Shuff nothing going he
49:55tried to step up late on the
49:57throw and Emmanuel Forbes gets the
49:59easy interception third career
50:05pick for Forbes as he celebrates in
50:09front of a fired up crowd here in
50:10Los Angeles what a day this
50:12defense has had it has been
50:18that's their second takeaway
50:19here's Kyron Williams up the
50:22middle for a game of six to say
50:26it's been dominant is an
50:27understatement right the defense
50:30has been complimenting the
50:32offense and the way that they've
50:33gone and suffocated the Saints
50:36offense they had the Saints had
50:38one drive at the end of the first
50:40half other than that nothing
50:42doing tenth giveaway in the last
50:44three games shock taking a look at
50:52it under five minutes remaining

51:16against an NFC opponent of two
51:18losses for the Eagles and forty
51:22Niners both on the final play of
51:26the game there's Stan Krocchi the
51:28Rams owner I'm sure he's pleased
51:31with what he sees this is a really
51:33good product that the Rams are
51:34putting out Sean McVay leader of
51:37that the way that they're able to
51:38move the football offensively they

51:57really came on late in the season
51:58and remember we had called one of
52:00their games late we felt like they
52:02were starting to peak at the right
52:03time and said if they have to play
52:06a Minnesota right one of these
52:08teams that they were going to give
52:09them a run for their money sure
52:11enough they beat Minnesota in the
52:13playoff game they lose to
52:14Philadelphia Eagles but you can
