Rams rally in second half behind Matthew Stafford, Kyren Williams to overcome Saints

LA Times  

Kevin Dotson hugs Kyren Williams after the Rams running back scored against the Saints. Still, Matthew Stafford passed for two second-half touchdowns, Kyren Williams ran for another and rookie edge rusher Jared Verse made a late clutch play as the Rams defeated the New Orleans Saints 21-14 at the Caesars Superdome. “It’s a lot of standing around,” he said, adding, “It is an odd feeling.” The Rams got the ball twice in the second quarter and Williams and rookie running back Blake Corum ran well but the Rams could not finish drives and they went into the locker room trailing 6-0. “We’ve got to be able to figure it out,” McVay said of slow starts and poor execution early in games, adding, “but I also don’t want to overreact.” The Rams did not panic Sunday. “We knew that as a running back group,” he said, “and we knew that as the offensive line and the offense in general.” Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson makes a touchdown catch against the Saints.
