Preview coverage from therams.com
- Stu Jackson on the "challenging and unique circumstances" surrounding the Rams' offensive line
- "You always want to make sure that as a coach you're putting guys in positions to have success. I know guys are competing to the best of their ability, but there were some things that we expect better, and you also look at yourself and say, 'Are we doing exactly the right things?' Even though if we might think that, let's learn from it and let's apply it moving forward." - Sean McVay
- Wyatt Miller on Byron Young's devotion paving his unique path to the pros
- "(My mom) was just like, 'just keep doing what you're doing, eventually, it's going to happen. Someone is watching and the right people will find you,'" Young recalled. "And I remembered that, and then, no lie, a few weeks later, that's when everything started happening and I'm just thankful for her." - Young
- Wyatt Miller on top quotes and talking points from the podium
- "I feel like (the Patriots' front is) long, aggressive, I've practiced against this style of defense for a number of years when I was in Detroit. It's not the exact same, but it's that same type of style where they're stopping the run, transition to pass rush, two-gap and do a really nice job of stopping the run." - Matthew Stafford
