Sean McVay Calls Overtime Fourth-Down Play 'A Bad Call' After Rams' Loss to 49ers

McVay accepted responsibility for the goal-line call that ended Los Angeles' overtime drive and the game.

Overview

  • Facing fourth-and-1 in overtime, McVay chose to try for the yard rather than attempt a short, game-tying field goal.
  • Kyren Williams was stopped on the carry and lost the ball near the goal line, ending the Rams’ possession.
  • McVay said he was comfortable going for it but criticized his play selection, calling it “a bad call” and noting he came to win.
  • Williams had been a major contributor earlier with two receiving touchdowns before the decisive turnover.
  • Early reports differed on the final score and on who forced the fumble, with some attributing it to 49ers rookie Alfred Collins.
