Sean McVay, I like Sean McVay a lot, I do.
I think he is a really interesting person
when you hear him speak about football, about life.
He is somebody that I always think is a captivating,
a captivating person to listen to, personality.
And after the game last night, he took all of the blame
for what happened last night on Monday Night Football
against the Bills.
I, for the life of me, if you're a Rams fan,
I don't know why Sean McVay was playing so safe,
knowing that he had already missed an
extra point, knowing his kicker, Harrison Mevis,
is not a good kicker, knowing that
his special teams is not good,
and that he went right down the field on a tired Bills
defense with a chance to win the football game,
and he played for overtime.
I'm not knocking this and I want to make this perfectly clear at home
Generally speaking. I would play for overtime as well.
It's your building. It's your fans
You normally would say play for overtime
But not when your special teams unit is that big of a mess
And he even admitted it after the game the special teams for the rams
Cost them the game last night and they're now two and three on the year
And they are three and a half games behind the 49ers for the division.
We're in week five, heading to week six.
So after five weeks,
you are three and a half games back in the division.
You've got Seattle ahead of you as well.
And you've got an NFC that's going to be tough
to make the playoffs at this rate.
If the Rams don't turn things around.
Now they've got three very winnable football
games coming up here where they should be
five and three and then things probably will be okay
but they have no margin for error it's why
i i bet the the bills last night i took three
and a half on the bills and we were literally
one kick away from getting the perfect scenario
and the perfect outcome of that football game
as a patriot fan because the patriots were about
to be tied for first place in the AFC East
because the Bills were going to go to three
and two the Patriots would be three and two
and the Patriots would have the head-to-head.
But then you decide after an unbelievable fumble
from James Cook, which was remarkable.
The Bills are going down, they're driving.
They can either kick a field goal or score a touchdown.
It doesn't really matter
because the Rams are going to have a possession,
but he fumbled.
Now the Rams have possession.
All the Rams have to do is kick a field goal
and the Rams win.
And they were setting up for a field goal.
They played conservatively to get into field goal range.
And it was not an easy, like simple kick.
Thank
you.
