Each team does things differently when travelling for NFL’s international games, some teams from one trip to the next.<\/p>\n
The Rams were well beaten on their first two visits to London after arriving early in the wee.<\/p>\n
Then, after arriving late for their other two visits in 2017 and 2019, they won both.<\/p>\n
So this time they opted to come late – even later than ever before – and there was another quirk with their unusual pre-match schedule.<\/p>\n
After winning 17-3 at the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday, the Rams not only stayed on the east coast all week but practised at the Baltimore Orioles’ home field in the first non-baseball events to be held at Camden Yards, which opened in 1992.<\/p>\n
That meant they had a shorter flight and time difference to contend with, although Adams said he still woke at 4am on Sunday and could not get back to sleep – and it was the same for some of his team-mates.<\/p>\n
It did not seem like that as he claimed two touchdowns before half-time, after rookie receiver Konata Mumpfield opened the scoring with his first NFL touchdown. <\/p>\n
Tight ends Colby Parkinson and Terrance Ferguson claimed LA’s other two scores, showing the Rams have the receiving corps to fill the void of star receiver Puka Nacua, who was ruled out with an ankle injury from last week.<\/p>\n
Quarterback Matthew Stafford led a balanced offence, making passes to 10 different receivers and, asked if he felt any jet lag, he said: “Ask me tomorrow, it’ll be a wild one, flying back right now. We pieced it together and went out and played well, so we were glad we did what we did in the first and second quarter.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
