"We have to go back to work,"
"We have to get the right techniques, and we have to get the right people on there because that has been a killer for us and it's cost us two games."
"keeping our pad level down, making sure that we're staying connected in our protection [and] forcing the ball to get higher, quicker."
The Los Angeles Rams have struggled with special-teams protection, resulting in multiple blocked kicks that directly affected game outcomes. Two blocked kicks contributed to a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, and two more were blocked in an overtime loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Kicker Joshua Karty has missed five kicks this season, tied for the NFL lead, and has had four kicks blocked, the most among kickers. The Rams converted all attempts in a win over the Indianapolis Colts, prompting a focus on correcting technique and personnel. Coach Sean McVay emphasized fixes, and special-teams coordinator Chase Blackburn stressed pad level, protection connectivity and getting the ball higher and quicker.
