Some 160 treated for heat-related illnesses during Rams game

The Los Angeles Rams won their first game in their new home city Sunday, stunning the Seattle Seahawks with a 9-3 win.

“It’s a historical moment to be here and get our first opening home game”, said Ogletree, who had nine tackles. Wilson was under constant siege by the Rams’ front seven, but was somehow sacked just twice, proving once again that stats sometimes lie.

A Rams defense that could not contain Blaine Gabbert mostly neutralized Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who was playing on an ankle injured during last week’s come-from-behind victory over Miami.

Garcetti said “one of my most vivid childhood memories” was attending the Rams’ lone Super Bowl appearance during their initial time in Southern California, Super Bowl XIV, at the Rose Bowl on January 20, 1980, when he was 8 years old.

The Rams have now beaten the the Seahawks three times in a row, and four out of the last five. “To come out and play like that and not give us a real shot to get ahead was tough”.

Marcus Cooper, acquired off waivers from Kansas City on September 2, had two interceptions, returning the second 60 yards for a score.

It was the Red Hot Chili Peppers playing a pregame concert with Anthony Kiedis wearing a Jared Goff jersey and football trousers – the only play the kid got all afternoon. A group of Rams Hall of Famers, including Jackie Slater, Marshall Faulk, Eric Dickerson and Jack Youngblood helped light the Coliseum’s torch, which also burned when the stadium hosted the 1932 and 1984 Olympics.

Tavon Austin is regarded as the Rams’ No. 1 receiver, but Kenny Britt was Case Keenum’s top target on Sunday in the Rams’ 9-3 victory over the Seattle Seahawks at the Coliseum. No. 1 pick, Jared Goff was promoted to backup QB, after being inactive for their disastrous opener in San Francisco.

“You know, I like touchdowns, but I love winning”, said Keenum, whose offence has averaged just 4.5 points over the first two games of the season.

“To come out and ptdplay like that, not give us a real shot to get ahead, was tough”, said Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, who returned to the stadium where he spent almost a decade as USC’s head coach.

Baldwin said afterward in the Coliseum’s tunnel he “felt like crap” with back spasms on a hard hit he took from behind following a third-down catch short of the line to gain plus a knee that will require an MRI exam.

Temperatures hovered in the 70s and 80s for much of the coastal area near Los Angeles. Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman played for the first time near his hometown of Compton.

Autumn may be upon us (Thursday is technically the very first day of fall), but L.A. doesn’t seem to have gotten the memo. He missed two snaps before returning to the game. The Rams shared the Hollywood spotlight Sunday with the Emmy Awards, which were being held up the street from the Coliseum.

When Lockett got back on the field for the last drive, he went to everyone in the Seahawks huddle and slapped their shoulders or poked them in the chest.
