On Monday, Rams head coach Sean McVay was asked to evaluate Bobby Brown III’s performance this season. Brown has been a wall for the Rams this season, slowly becoming the team’s premier run defender.
McVay spoke highly of Brown, praising his play on early downs when teams are primarily running the ball.
“I think Bobby’s done a great job,” he said. “I think after the first couple weeks, we really challenged our front to step up, especially in some of those early down situations. I think Bobby has been at the forefront of a lot of the early down efficiency that’s earned us the opportunity to be aggressive in some of those known pass situations, whether that be second downs or some of the third downs. Bobby was great yesterday. I thought he knocked out the run in early downs, played with great hands and was able to show some great range down the line of scrimmage.”
Brown came through for the Rams on Sunday, making multiple tackles while dominating the line of scrimmage. This was made most evident when Brown took down Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker on fourth down in overtime, giving the Rams the ball with an opportunity to win with a score. Demarcus Robinson hauled in the game-winning touchdown four plays later.
“That play in particular was a huge play by him and for Omar [Speights] to be able to have that kind of violence on his arrival,” McVay continued. “Those two guys, that’s a game-winning play right there. When you really look at that sequence leading up to it, the tackle by Kamren Kinchens to be able to get it to a third down-and-1 and then what Jared Verse makes on the third-and-1 and what those two guys you just mentioned, in addition to the rest of the front on fourth-and-1, what a cool example of guys making them snap it one more time and complementary football. Then four plays later, Demarcus Robinson is making a catch in the end zone and the Rams are going crazy so that was pretty cool. Bobby’s done great.”
Brown is in the last year of his rookie contract, but he could be playing his way into an extension next offseason.
