Williams had a memorable playoff interception against Seattle in the 2020 playoffs
Upset Brewing in Seattle!
Midway through the 2nd half Rams CB Darious Williams intercepts Wilson and takes it to the HOUSE.

Albert Breer@AlbertBreer As @TomPelissero said, the NFL is working on a proposal that INCLUDES teams having to declare onside kicks. But it’s part of a much larger concept that’ll have teams kicking off from the opponent’s 40-yard line, with an aim on increasing returns, taking space/speed out. The proposal … • Kickoff team lines up on the plus-40. Same alignment rules. Everyone but kicker has foot on the 40. • Return team lines up 9-10 players in setup zone b/w the 35 and 30. Six must have their foot on the 35. • 1-2 returners b/w the 20 and goal line. • No one but the kicker and return men can move until the ball is touched by the returner. • If the ball doesn’t cross the 20 in the air, it’s treated as out of bounds, goes to the 40. • If kicker kicks it into the end zone on the fly, touchback comes out to the 35. • If return team lets it roll into the end zone, the touchback goes to the 20. Idea was developed by Saints STC Darren Rizzi and Cowboys STC John Fassel. Those two and Bears STC Richard Hightower presented it to Roger Goodell and the competition committee last week. So this is why, again, as Tom said, the onside kick rules needed to be adjusted. The hope is it’ll eliminate the 25-yard headstart to collision that the current space and speed create, and flip the number of touchbacks-to-returns, which is 80/20 now.
Don’t know why the dicaprio video is in here. I was trying to link the second one.

Umm…..how many attendees at the Ram games were actually Ram fans?
The same thought crossed my mind. It’s all the same to Kroenke, of course. Doesn’t much matter who the fans are; the color of the money is green.
It will take a generation to rebuild a dedicated fan base, though they did not start with nothing. And LA will always be LA. It ain’t Green Bay.
LA has 2 NFL teams, 2 MLB, 2 NBA, 2 NHL, 2 MLS, 2 NCAA FB. Never mind all the non-sports attractions. That’s just the competition for sports identity. And LA is so big, it has fans of all those NFL teams there, and if their team shows up in LA once every 8 years, they’re all going to go.
Green Bay, WI just doesn’t have that many “ex-pats” living there.
In any event, that chart is TOTAL attendance, both home and away, it should be noted.
Here is AVERAGE home attendance. I use avg instead of total because some teams had 8 home games (Rams), and some had 9.
(The Rams are at 6, the Chargers at 14).
