The Los Angeles Rams lose 37-34 to the Buffalo Bills in overtime, with their comeback falling short after late-game and extra-time special-teams breakdowns. Multiple outlets report that Buffalo blocks a potential winning field goal attempt in overtime, turning what began as a chance to win into an ending for the Rams. The loss leaves Los Angeles at 2-3 for the season.
Rams head coach Sean McVay expresses strong frustration and describes himself as “sick” about the overtime call and its outcomes, including a third-down sequence that leads to a blocked field goal. While some reporting focuses on whether the play-calling and decision-making were at fault, McVay also pushes back on making scapegoats. Yahoo Sports and other coverage say he defends special teams coordinator Bubba Ventrone after the special teams issues resurface, and that he hints at evaluating and potentially making changes. Additional commentary highlights that the problems are not an isolated incident and have affected results over recent games.
