top view--Mumpfield gets the CB long enough so he cannot close angle, then gets the safety on KY's TD run ...

Have not see Hamilton making many splash plays in his career, yesterday had a least a couple that stood out, here is one of then, wades though trash to get QB hit

Ty Hamilton fights double team, and clogs area, Dolac slips in for the tackle.
When the front does its job, the defense works
this is pure Fangio front, a Penny Front, a 5-1, five man surface with one LBer, this us 2020-21 kind of thing

AD looks like he's going to have B-gap, but look at his quick step to charge the A-Gap, leaved B-gap open for Omar to run through
another TFL

Wesley Bailey -- not exactly Jared Verse-type power, but still, good power rush, good enough get off, gets his hands inside the tackle's, sinks hips and drives to QB

Watch the blocks of Whit and Mumph--Mumph got two guys, one then the other
you expext AJ to get his, but Mumph held off the CB who then could not get then then he sealed off safety
brilliant WR blocks, Whit got the edge

watch left edge, former Rams Daniel Hardy with a a good wax-on wax-off double swipe
1. good get-off, sets up tackle
2, violent hands on swipe
3 dip shoulder and close
this is very smooth, always had great s/s/s but looks to be learning his trade.
Had a sack last week ... maybe will be a good rotational giuy

Fiske plays all over, mostly inside, but this year, has been packages with him on the edge.

Zuerlein + Gay combined
FG: 163/184 (88.6%)
XP: 216/221 (97.7%)
All others combined (Ficken, Santos, Sloman, Forbath, Maher, Havrisik, Karty, Mevis, Grupe)
FG: 107/141 (75.9%)
XP: 181/199 (91.0%)
The Rams have cycled through 12 kickers under Sean McVay, with Matt Gay leading the group at 92.5% on field goals.
Now Brandon McManus gets his shot. Can the veteran finally bring some long-term stability to LA’s kicking game?

started okay ..
here Braden Fiske wins with his hands, gets hands inside-ish, knocks OL's hands down then long arms with left and chops with the right hand, while driving legs.

The final Rams drive in their game against the Cardinals presented one of the most interesting situations in recent memory.
Down 6, with the Cardinals out of timeouts, 2nd and 3 at the 6 yard and 52 seconds. I really believe handing it off on this play would give you the best chance to win.
A tackle in bounds would allow you to get the clock down into the range where a TD effectively wins the game.
The Rams elect to go play action, and when the play is initially marked short at the half yard line, that was realistically *better* than scoring the TD.
1st and goal at the half yard line, I would put the Rams at ~95% to score a TD on the ensuing plays, with the added benefit of the clock very low and approaching 0.
Another consideration here is that the punter doing kickoffs, it is hard to get a precise kickoff in the landing zone so a touchback to the 35 is most likely. Down 1 with 47 seconds from their own 35, the Cardinals odds of winning are about 25%.
The review that "helped" the Rams actually hurt them. In Madden, a lot of players would probably try to go down at the 1. Wish it was that easy in real life.
Close to impossible to coach that here, though it would be interesting if a team tried instructing players to go down after they got the first down in a situational like this one.

the offsides ... seems to have slowed him, but I dunno ... Tampa-2 coverage the seam route drew Landman's attention and the strike down middle game from the top side.
