Sean McVay 'really chapped' about Rams' constant penalties

Sean McVay is not happy about the Rams' rash of penalties, including one that was called on an assistant coach Sunday.

The Los Angeles Rams faced a day marred by disciplinary issues, committing eight penalties that added up to 100 yards during a game on Sunday. Head coach Sean McVay expressed his frustration, stating that the constant flags were uncharacteristic of his team and misrepresented their performance. The issues extended beyond the offense, with both the offense and special teams demonstrating a lack of discipline.

Quarterbacks coach Dave Ragone was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct after standing in the referee's running lane during a play, which resulted in a 23-yard run being reduced to an 8-yard gain. McVay acknowledged that the team's win was a positive outcome, but he emphasized the need for improvement, particularly in minimizing procedural and pre-snap penalties, which are within their control through focus and concentration.

He vowed to do his part in keeping order on the sidelines and highlighted the importance of fundamental techniques, even in the face of a referee's decision.
