00:00Coach, former Rams head coach here with us here, Mike Martz here.
00:03Coach, big game tonight, Buffalo and the Rams on Monday Night Football.
00:07Why do you think the Rams are struggling so much out of the gate?
00:12Well, I just, I think the biggest issue is their travel, to be honest with you.
00:16You know, they've been all over the place.
00:18And I don't know if they've ever fully recovered from it.
00:20I know it sounds silly, but, you know, they've only had one home game so far.
00:23And they'll play really well.
00:25I think they win this one.
00:26I do think they're a tired team to some extent.
00:30They banged up a little bit.
00:31They got Nakua back.
00:32And, you know, Juju, Tutu Atwell, I think that speed will come in as a factor.
00:39They've got too much firepower on offense right now.
00:41Once they start clicking, they'll be really difficult to beat.
00:45Defensively, they haven't showed up like you'd think they would so far, but they will.
00:48I think they've just been kind of a tired team so far.
00:52Coach, for you, Sean McVay, play caller, in your opinion,
00:55where would you put him in the league when it comes to play callers?
00:59Well, I think he's one of the very best, if not the best.
01:02I really like Ben Johnson.
01:05Obviously, Shanahan's really good.
01:07Top three or four of them, obviously, he's in that group.
01:11Plus, to add to that, he's experienced.
01:13He changes.
01:14He adjusts well on the fly, something he struggled with early in his career.
01:18Right now, he's on target with everything during a game.
01:21He knows when to change things up.
01:23But I think he's absolutely terrific.
01:28Coach, on the other side tonight, Josh Allen, a little bit on the turnovers the last couple weeks.
01:32How do you coach that out of him?
01:34Is it a reminder in his preparation each week?
01:37How do you make sure you're telling him turning the ball over is going to get us beat?
01:42It caught up with him last week against the Patriots.
01:45I think when you lack personnel on offense and the quarterback in this situation, because they're not as good outside
01:51as they've been.
01:52They've got, you know, I don't know if, what's his name, the receiver's back yet, DJ.
01:56I don't know if he's back full strength.
01:58But they lack, so the quarterback feels like he's got to make plays and take chances.
02:02And that's a bad spot to be in.
02:04No question about it there.
02:06We'll see what happens tonight.
02:07Coach has got the Rams tonight taking care of the Buffalo Bills.
02:10That should be an interesting ball game, especially with Matt Stafford playing the way that he's playing against the Eagles
02:16last week.
02:17We'll see if they end up bouncing back.
