Instead of punting it and risking a blocked punt or a return touchdown, the Rams had Brandon Powell line up as the punter. Powell took the snap and run back to the end zone to waste more time before stepping out of bounds in the end zone with six seconds left.

Even though it gave the Falcons two more points on the scoreboard, it gave them no time to orchestrate a final drive. And while everyone was crediting McVay for making the wise decision to take the intentional safety, he wants everyone to know it was Wolford’s idea.


Thereafter, our punter is penalized 15-yards for summarily free-kicking the ball out of bounds. Have to assume that we wanted to hem the PR in on the sideline, but damn...what a weird game.

  The very first Rams game I ever saw, they took a Safety as time expired in Dallas.
