COMING THROUGH, McCULLOUGH. WOW! CAME IN LIKE ATOR SPEED
DOE! THAT’S THE SECOND SACK.
THEY LOSE 12. AND THE BALL IS BACK TO THE 27.
THEY’RE TO WHAT C.J. STROUD AND THIS

THEY’VE GOT HIM WITH DAVIS. ANOTHER SACK!
OH A SOLID BACK UP COMING THROUGH TYLER DAVIS FOR THE
RAMS! THIS NEW LINE, THAT GREAT PASS
RUSH OF L.A. >> Trent: REALLY THERE WAS ROOM
THERE. YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE C.J. SLIDE
UP INTO THE POCKET. WATCH AS DAVIS GETS OFF THE
FIELD. LOOK THERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF
SPACE THERE. YOU DON’T WANT TO SIT AND LOOK
AT THE PASS RUSH, YOU ALMOST HAVE TO FEEL THAT SLIDING UP
INTO THE POCKET. BIG LOSS.
NICE PLAY BY DAVIS, WITH THE NOT WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.
>> Ian: SO BACK IT UP, 2N 2ND & 15.
WARD, SLAMMED STANDBY BYRON YOUNG.
>> J.J.: THAT IS OJUKWU AGAIN. YOU’RE GOING TO SEE VERSE.
HE’S GOING TO DOUBLE SWIPE. THE HANDS GET HIM DOWN.
IT’S JUST TOO EASY AROUND THE EDGE.
THAT IS BYRON YOUNG. THAT’S WHAT THEY ARE FIRST DOWN FOR TENNESSEE.
THEY ARE ON THE MOVE AT THE L.A. 35.
THE RUSSIAN INITIALLY WARD GETS TOSSED —
THE RUSH INITIALLY. WARD GETS TOSSED DOWN BY TURNER.
THE SELF-PROCLAIMED LAND SHARK. GAVE HIMSELF AS A NICKNAME, AND
IT WORKS. >> J.J.: IN HIS FACE, LOOKS

PLAY. >> Ian: THIS IS THE NINTH PLAY
OF THE DRIVE. WARD HAS LOOKED COMFORTABLE, BUT
NOT WHEN HE IS GETTING HIT IN THE BACKFIELD.
FLAG DOWN PER JOSAIAH STEWART GETS HOME.
>> J.J.: THAT’S GOING TO BE COMING AROUND THE EDGE.
THIS IS A SPEED RUSH. YOU WILL GET PAST HIM, SOME OF
THE DOWN, AND DAN MOORE HAS NO OPTION BUT TO HOLD ON.
GIVE UP TWO SACKS LAST WEEK, A LEAD FOR THE RAMS.
23-YEAR-OLD ROOKIE CAM WARD. STEPS UP, GOES DOWN, LOSES THE
BALL. BOUNCES AROUND.
THE RAMS HAVE GOT IT. STILL RUNNING.
NOT GOING DOWN. [WHISTLE BLOWING]
NATE LANDMAN ON THE SPOT. HE DOES A GREAT JOB CONTINUING
TO FIGHT AND COMING UP FOR THIS TRIP SACKED.
HE WILL GET STOPPED INITIALLY. LET IT RUN, WATCH HIS INITIAL
PASS RUSH FROM TONY POLLARD. HE GETS THE ARM OFF AND GETS THE
STRIP SACK. HUGE PLAY THERE, MASSIVE PLAY
FOR THE RAMS. >> Ian: THE ONLY THING THEY’RE

FIRST SACK OF THE DAY. THE RAMS HAVE SAID FORD CAN BE A
DIFFERENCE MAKER THEY BROUGHT IN THIS OFF-SEASON.
>> Greg: YOU CAN SEE HIM ON THE BOTTOM OF YOUR SCREEN.
HE’S LISTED AT 5’11”. YEAR AFTER AND IT’S THE
DEFENSIVE LINE THAT’S THE BIGGEST STRENGTH THAT EVERYBODY
IS TALKING ABOUT. BRINGING IT HERE, AND GETTING
THERE. HE ABSOLUTELY LEVELS JALEN
HURTS! THERE’S THE DRAFT, AND THEN
THERE’S THE GUY THEY GOT UNDRAFTED.
NOBODY WANTED JALEN MCCULLOUGH. THEY FOUND HIM AND HE’S BEEN A
STUD FOR TWO YEARS. >> Greg: THEY’RE TRYING TO CATCH
THE RAMS OFF GUARD HERE. NONE OF THE OFFENSIVE LINEMEN
GET A STANCE. THAT’S SAQUON BARKLEY’S MAN.
BARKLEY IS TRYING TO GIVE PRYOR, REMEMBER, THE NEW RIGHT TACKLE,
HE’S SO FOCUSED ON GIVING HIM A CHIP THERE ON THE EDGE, THAT HE
TAKES HIS EYES OFF OF HIS DEFENDER, AND PHILLY TRIED TO GO
FAST AND CATCH THEM OFF GUARD BY >> Greg: A LITTLE TEMPO HERE,
WHICH IS A GOOD WAY TO JUMP-START AN OFFENSE.

FIGHT FOR IT AT THE BOTTOM. NATE LANDEN RECOVERS THE
FOOTBALL AFTER A THUNDEROUS HIT FROM JARED VERSE.
>> Greg: JUS FROM JARED VERSE.
>> Greg: JUST CAN’T STRESS ENOUGH THE IMPACT OF LOSING LANE
JOHNSON. YOU HAVE TO KEEP GUYS FROM THE
OUTSIDE IN. JARED VERSE HAS DONE THAT TO A
LOT OF GUYS IN HIS SHORT TIME IN THE NFL.
THAT’S A TOUGH MATCHUP, AND JALEN HURTS IS JUST NOT USED TO
QUICK PRESSURE COMING OFF THOSE >> Greg: JUST GAVE A SIGNAL AT
THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN. >> Joe: THAT’S WHERE BROWN IS.
PRESSURE COMES, FLAG IS DOWN AND SO IS HURTS.
HE GETS SACKED BY BYRON YOUNG, DECLINE IT, DON’T YOU?
>> Greg: IT WILL MAKE IT 4th AND 6.
>> Referee: THAT PENALTY IS DECLINED.
FOURTH DOWN. >> Joe: MAYBE THIS IS THE FOURTH
QUARTER, BUT THEY HAVE SHOWN AN ABILITY TO HIT BIG PLAYS SINCE
THEN. SCORE, RUN TO WIN.
THEY’VE GOT THE PLAYERS TO DO THAT.
>> Kevin: ON SECOND AND SIX. IT’S A PLAY FAKE.
JONES ON THE ROLL, USING HIS LEGS, BUT HE CAN’T OUTRUN BYRON
YOUNG. YOUNG IS SUCH A DYNAMIC
DEFENSIVE PLAYER. SECOND IN THE LEAGUE IN SACKS.
SECOND IN THE LEAGUE IN TACKLES FOR LOSS.
THIS ONE A LOSS OF ONE. >> Daryl: I THINK THIS IS GOING
TO BE ONE OF THE KEY PARTS OF THE GAME, IS HOW DO THINGS
HAPPEN OUT ON THE EDGE? JUST AS YOU SAID, THIS RAMS
DEFENSE TODAY FOR THIS GAME, AND ADONAI
MITCHELL CANCELS IT OUT. >> Kevin: FOUR MAN PRESSURE,
BUT IT GETS TO JONES, THE BALL POPS OUT.
STRIPPED OUT BY VERSE, AND RECOVERED BY RAIMANN TO SAVE THE SOFT SPOTS.
AL: SHANAHAN IS DOWN PUDDING DESSERT ON THAT MENU.
SECOND AND 3. DOWN HE GOES AT THE 23, A
SACK. KOBIE TURNER IS THE MAN.
THIRD DOWN, THIRD AND 12 NOW.
KIRK: THE DIFFERENCE IS THE RAMS TOOK AWAY THOSE
UNDERNEATH THROWS WHERE HE HAS BEEN LIVING.
THEY WANTED TO CHECK HAVE TO MAKE SOME CLEAN WEEDS
AND DECISIVE THROWS. >> Kevin: HUNTLEY IN TROUBLE .
HE HAS GOT THEM. FIRST SACK OF THE DAY FOR THE
RAMS. JERRY BURST.
>> Tom: ONE-ON-ONE WITH ROSENGARTEN ON THE TOP.
KIND OF A BULRUSH THROUGH HIS THREE CARRIES FOR 39 YARDS.
– – DOWN 14 SECOND AND TWO. PRESSURE, HUNTLEY DROPS.
HE HAD NOWHERE TO GO. HIS FIRST SACK OF THE YEAR
>> Tom: NO – – AT THE TACKLE SITS ON THE OUTSIDE GUY HE MAKES THE RUN GAME BETTER
THE OFFENSIVE LINE BETTER HELPS THE DEFENSE OUT BECAUSE THEY
PLAYED WITH THE LEAD. HARD TO UNDERESTIMATE THEIR – –
>> Kevin: HUNTLEY IS GOING TO YEARS HAS NEVER BEEN TARGETED.
>> Tom: THAT WAS THE BOX GAME LAST YEAR.
– – THE BUCCANEERS GAME LAST YEAR, UNPREDICTABLE AND
EXCITING. >> Kevin: BYRON YOUNG GETS
HOME FOR THE SACK, BACK TO BACK. >> Tom: WITH LAMAR MISSING, YOU
SEE THIS SACK JUST ON AROUND Sunday is going to be changed.
And it is a pass. Lawrence is
taken down by the man of the hour of the Los Angeles Rams.
Jared Verse who is on a heater.
Kurt Warner he is on a heater. And it really started after
week two. You’re going to see
him on the left hand side of the screen here. But after week
two he sat down with coach
McVay. And McVay said okay we’re not getting the same
Jared verse here in these first
couple weeks. He said he was allowing the pass to get into
the present, refocused him. And
as you said he has been playing lights out since then, a sack
and a forced fumble in three of
the four games since then. And Cohen. So two first downs on
this drive after none in the
first two drives from the Rams 44. Lawrence steps out of the
rush, steps up and that’s where
it ends. Land man. Again, it’s a sack loss of about three. And
really good coverage on the
back end. What we call a coverage sack. Good pressure up
early forcing him to roll to
his right. All of the routes are going back across it. Here we go. Lawrence cannot
spin out of the Quentin Lake
sack. Big play by the fourth year man out of UCLA. All
Bruins are doing it these days.
Lake here at the bottom of the screen. It’s just a free hitter.
You got to have a pressure plan.
You got to know if that guy is coming free. Where do I get rid
of the football now? He felt it.
He thought he was going to be able to spin out and answer the
question with his legs. But I
see it every week. Ridge. Talk about it every week. Have a
pressure plan. When you have an
unblocked defender, you’ve got that one touchdown was for 31
yards. Unbelievable. Trevor
Lawrence needing to get something moving. And he cannot.
Another sack of Trevor Lawrence
as that was Josiah Stewart who showed up for the sack. Well
you know the first touchdown is
always a special one, but memorable to go across the pond
to get their first one in four there. Good touch Lawrence.
Is sacked for the sixth time
today. That was a nice rush by Murchison and Landman together.
That’s how he hit the two
minute warning with the Rams
Los Angeles Rams’ defense presents a danger for opposing quarterbacks. The Rams defense has dominated the first half of the 2025 season with 26 total sacks. Watch every sack they’ve made from Week 1 to Week 7.
