Rams T Andrew Whitworth – Rams-Seahawks Postgame Quotes – Dec. 8, 2019
(On if they had fun during the game today)
“Oh yeah. A lot of fun. Having fun and enjoying playing football. I had one hell of a gauntlet to start December – (Arizona Cardinals OLB) Chandler (Jones) twice, (San Francisco 49ers DE) Nick Bosa, (Seahawks DE Jadeveon) Clowney and (Cowboys DE) Robert Quinn. So, it’s a Christmas gift for a left tackle (laughs). But, it’s been fun so far.”
(On how much it impacts the offensive line when the offense is producing)
“Well, I think any time you can start working the perimeter and inside of the guys, and when you mix it throughout the night you run inside, you run outside – you really start to stretch the defense out where they’re not sure what to play. It just puts them in a really tough spot, where they have to kind of commit to one way or the other to stop something. That’s the kind of efficiency that in years past we’ve had, and we’re starting to get back.”
(On the wide receiver sweep twice in a row on the 95-yard drive)
“Yeah, you know what? It was something they were giving us, and giving us an opportunity to get out on the edge and use our athletes and play them. That’s the beauty of football, man. Once you see something you have to keep attacking it.”
