<p><strong>Kyren Williams</strong> may have cost the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-rams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Los Angeles Rams</a></strong> a win in Week 5. However, the running back is aware of the implications of his <strong>costly fumble</strong> and wants to amend his mistake.</p>



<p>Week 5 started on the wrong foot for the Rams. Even though they were regarded as favorites against the <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/san-francisco-49ers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">San Francisco 49ers</a></strong>, the visitors took home the win in overtime with a final score of <strong>23-20</strong>.</p>



<p>The game could have ended differently, though. With just a minute left on the clock, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kyren-williams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kyren Williams</a> had a chance to score, but he <strong>fumbled at the one-yard line</strong> and couldn’t deliver the victory his team expected.</p>



<h2>Kyren Williams gets real on his unfortunate mistakes vs. 49ers</h2>



<p>While the Rams were favored against the 49ers in Week 5, fate had other plans. Los Angeles was <strong>unable to capitalize on home-field advantage</strong> and secure the win at SoFi Stadium.</p>

<p>In the final minutes of regulation, the Rams entered the 49ers’ red zone with a clear chance to score a touchdown. However, Kyren Williams fumbled at the one-yard line, sending the game into <strong>overtime</strong>.</p>



<p>In extra time, with the score tied 20-20, the Rams once again had the ball deep in 49ers territory. On a <strong>crucial 4th-and-1 play</strong>, Williams <strong>failed to pick up the necessary yard for a first down</strong>, sealing the victory for San Francisco.</p>



<p>Williams admitted his performance was far from his best, particularly with the fumble and the failed conversion. However, the <strong>running back promised that such mistakes won’t happen again</strong>.</p>

<p><strong><em>“S—t sucks,”</em></strong> Kyren Williams said. <em>“I don’t know. For me, <strong>I just got to hold onto the bal</strong>l. I feel like I let the team down at the 1-yard line, not securing the one thing that matters and scoring the touchdown. So, for me, I<strong> put this all on me, honestly, and just knowing that I got to be better.”</strong></em></p>



<h2>Week 10: A shot at redemption</h2>



<p>The Rams will have a chance to <strong>avenge their loss in Week 10</strong>, when they visit Levi’s Stadium for their second clash of the season against their NFC West rivals.</p>


        <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-sean-mcvay-delivers-strong-self-critique-after-rams-painful-loss-to-49ers"></div>


<p>Kyren Williams has surely circled that game on his calendar as an opportunity for redemption. However, with the <strong>49ers expected to recover several key starters by then</strong>, the challenge could be even tougher for Los Angeles.</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-rams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Los Angeles Rams</a></strong> have one of the most intriguing offenses in the <strong>NFL</strong>. They have the talent, <strong>Matthew Stafford</strong> is the quarterback, and <strong>Sean McVay</strong> is the head coach and playcaller. So far, so good. However, there is one guy on the roster who is taking leaps and bounds to become even better.</p>



<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kyren-williams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kyren Williams</a> emerged as a top-tier running back in the league last season. <strong>He put up a career-high 1,299 rushing yards</strong>. He also got 14 touchdowns to put the cherry on top. However, according to RB coach Ron Gould, <strong>the Rams running back is just getting started.</strong></p>



<p>Talking to the official website, Gould said Williams has shown more explosiveness now. “<em><strong>The first thing that stood out to us was his explosiveness,</strong></em>” Gould said. “<em>One of the things was just<strong> his ability to stay grounded through some of his runs </strong>that was really, really evident in the work that he’s put in, so really, really pleased with that.”</em></p>



<h2>If there was something missing for Williams, is explosiveness</h2>



<p>You can’t find many holes in Williams’ game. However, if you could nitpick,<strong> his yards per carry could be better. </strong>He had 4.1 yards per rushing attempt last season, which ranked 30th among <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> running backs. In fact, <strong>he just produced two rushed over 20 yards last season. </strong>He was a volume back, instead of an explosive one.</p>

<p><strong>Kyren Williams has also emerged as a leader in the locker room</strong>, according to Gould. If Williams ends up evolving to a back who can also explode on long runs, this offense will take another leap. <strong>Sean McVay will prioritize designing runs for Williams and letting Stafford pick teams apart on play-action formations.</strong></p>

<h2>The Rams offense is stacked</h2>



<p><strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/matthew-stafford" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Stafford</a> is one of the best quarterbacks in the league.</strong> That’s a good start. Williams leads the backfield, and the team has Puka Nacua as their best wide receiver. However, <strong>the Rams also landed none other than <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/davante-adams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Davante Adams</a></strong>, one of the best wideouts in the last decade.</p>



<p><strong>Adams will run crispy routes</strong>, will catch pretty much every pass thrown at him and will give the offense another dimension. When you look at this unit, <strong>only injuries could get in its way</strong>. The Rams are looking to be a protagonist in the NFC, and the sights are on the Super Bowl.</p>

<p>The<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-rams">Los Angeles Rams</a></strong> have shown significant improvement in the first six weeks of the season compared to the previous year, achieving a 3-3 record despite facing formidable opponents. Nevertheless, injuries have taken a toll on their offense, with star receiver<strong> Cooper Kupp</strong> sidelined for the first four games and another key contributor lost due to injury.</p>



<p>Los Angeles confirmed that they placed<strong> Kyren Williams</strong> on injured reserve following an ankle injury he sustained against the <strong>Arizona Cardinals</strong>. The running back is expected to miss at least four games and will be eligible to make his return in week 12, coincidentally against the Cardinals.</p>



<p>Adding to their running back woes, the Rams also had to send backup running back<strong> Ronnie Rivers</strong> to injured reserve after he injured his knee in the same game. To address the absence of Williams and Rivers, the Rams took a series of measures as they signed a couple of players to add depth.</p>



<h2>Kyren Williams’ Substitutes</h2>



<p>The Rams made significant changes to bolster their running back lineup first elevating<strong> Royce Freeman</strong> to the active roster. Then they inked a deal with a player the team knows well like<strong> Darrell Henderson Jr</strong>., who secured his place on the practice squad.</p>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78594"></div>


<p>Additionally, the Rams acquired running back<strong> Myles Gaskin</strong> from the<strong> Minnesota Vikings</strong>‘ practice squad and added him to their active roster. In their roster, they also have rookie sixth-rounder Zach Evans. However, replacing Williams won’t be a simple task, as he has been exceptionally effective.</p>

<p>The young second-year running back leads the Rams with impressive statistics, including 97 carries for<strong> 456</strong> yards and<strong> six</strong> touchdowns. He has also proven his versatility with 13 receptions for 105 yards and one touchdown. Entering Week 7, Williams’ rushing yards rank fourth and he was tied for the third-most rushing touchdowns.</p>
