Rams’ Sean McVay makes feelings on Australia clear after 49ers loss

Rams coach Sean McVay looks forward to playing the rest of the 2026 NFL season in the United States, not Australia after Week 1.

Rams’ Sean McVay makes feelings on Australia clear after 49ers loss

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay has expressed his desire to avoid future visits to Australia following their Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The Rams entered the season as Super Bowl contenders, boasting a powerful offense and a revamped defense. However, their aspirations may now seem more challenging. Despite the absence of star player Myles Garrett, who missed the game, the 49ers outperformed the Rams in Australia.

McVay joked about the experience, saying, "It's almost like you try to do the Men in Black thing where you say, 'Hey, I don't remember what happened. That was so long ago.'" He hopes the team won't return to Australia in the future, emphasizing that the atmosphere was great, but that sentiment should not be taken the wrong way. The team still has time to regroup and improve before facing their next opponent, the New York Giants, in Week 2.
