Both interceptions were great examples of a defender just reading the quarterback&#8217;s eyes and breaking on the ball.<\/p>\n<p>Need a news break? <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":body nav (play)|e|auto spike click:5|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_sp_a\" href=\"https:\/\/play.usatoday.com\/?itm_source=SPIKE&amp;itm_campaign=PLAYSPIKE&amp;itm_medium=ONSITE\">Check out the all new PLAY hub with puzzles, games and more!<\/a>DUD: RT Rob Havenstein<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Havenstein didn&#8217;t look great in his third game back from injury.

He also caught one pass for five yards. The ground attack was noticeably different when Blake Corum subbed in, who rushed for just 10 yards on eight carries.<\/p>\n<p>DUD: Football IQ\/preparation<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Los Angeles is always well prepared, and while they&#8217;ve been one of the least penalized teams in the NFL this year, their six penalties were just part of their mistakes. The Rams were forced to use all of their first-half timeouts in the first quarter due to a failed challenge and mistakes getting lined up correctly and on time. Any of those could&#8217;ve come back to haunt them if it weren&#8217;t for Darnold&#8217;s ugly day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">More Rams: <a href=\"http:\/\/theramswire.usatoday.com\/story\/sports\/nfl\/rams\/2025\/11\/15\/rams-aaron-donald-letter-pittsburgh-super-bowl\/87290370007\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Aaron Donald wrote a fantastic motivational letter to his younger self<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks met on Sunday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, for a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":56470,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[243,48,52,51,47,50,49,12179,12180,34911,378,3087,507,30185,4704,1347,379,366,374,259,1349,12181,34894,30189,6330,13084,377,246],"class_list":["post-56469","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles","tag-accessfree","tag-la","tag-la-headlines","tag-la-news","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-headlines","tag-los-angeles-news","tag-sstssportsnflrams","tag-sstsnrams","tag-tagaaron-donald","tag-tagamerican-football","tag-tagcalifornia","tag-tagcalifornia-gold-rush","tag-tagkyren-williams","tag-taglos-angeles","tag-taglos-angeles-rams","tag-tagnational-sports","tag-tagnfl","tag-tagnfl-hub","tag-tagoverall-negative","tag-tagoverall-positive","tag-tagrob-havenstein","tag-tagsam-darnold","tag-tagsean-mcvay","tag-tagseattle-seahawks","tag-tagsmg-listicle","tag-tagsports-news","tag-typestory"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56469","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56469"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56469\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56470"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56469"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56469"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56469"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
