THOUSAND OAKS Garrett Bradbury Jersey , Calif. (AP) — coach of the Los Angeles Rams hasn’t dampened Sean McVay’s sense of humor.McVay joked he hasn’t paid attention to the media coverage of Sunday night’s 30-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles “because I don’t want you guys to hurt my feelings.”Instead, McVay is concerned with getting the Rams out of their first prolonged slump in his two seasons.“You know you have a say in that this story is not finalized,” McVay said Monday night. “They don’t end the season after 14 games. And we know for sure that we have got two left in this regular season and one playoff game. What we don’t know is when that playoff game is going to be. We do know it’s going to be at the Coliseum, and that’s all we’re guaranteed right now.”McVay believes the Rams (11-3) showed signs of a turnaround by giving themselves a chance to tie the game on the final play, an incomplete pass by Jared Goff for Josh Reynolds. Goff was 17 of 23 passing for 179 yards in the fourth quarter against the Eagles after going 55 of 108 for 547 yards with one touchdown and seven interceptions over the previous 11 quarters.What bogged down the offense as the Eagles built a 17-point lead, McVay said, were breakdowns and penalties that put the Rams in difficult down-and-distance situations. The 32-year-old coach was pleased his team still had a chance to win in spite of those issues.“You could feel that momentum and, really, that clock ran out on us at the end of the game,” McVay said. “But in spite of all the different things that we went through Noah Fant Jersey , you can’t say these guys didn’t continue to fight, scratch and claw to put ourselves in a position to try to win a game. Credit to the Eagles for being able to get it done, but we’re going to learn from this and we’re not going to allow it to define our season. I do believe that and I know that.”Another confidence-booster for McVay is the health of Todd Gurley, who sustained a knee injury against Philadelphia that did not turn out to be serious. McVay said Gurley is dealing with inflammation and will be day-to-day going into the game at Arizona on Sunday. Gurley had 12 carries for 48 yards against the Eagles.McVay said he would be cautious with Gurley, who leads the NFL with 21 touchdowns and is second in the league in rushing yards. However, the chance to secure a first-round playoff bye by winning the final two games would factor into whether McVay would use Gurley against the Cardinals (3-11) if he is healthy.Complicating matters is the shoulder injury Justin Davis sustained against Philadelphia, leaving rookie John Kelly as the only healthy running back on the roster. Davis is also day-to-day, McVay said.“I think you really just take it one day at a time,” McVay said. “These games are important for us. We’ve got to do a good job of getting ready for a tough division opponent at their place and having a good week of preparation.”NOTES: McVay met with CB Marcus Peters, who had a verbal altercation with a fan during the game Sunday. McVay did not say if Peters would face internal discipline. “He knows that we’ve got to be better in those situations and can’t allow whatever’s going on http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/trysten-hill-jersey-cheap , in terms of that dialogue, to affect our ability to be focused on what is going on during the game,” McVay said. Indianapolis Colts linebacker Edwin Jackson was one of two men killed early Sunday when a suspected drunken driver struck them as they stood outside their car along a highway in Indianapolis, the team and police said.

The Colts said in a statement Sunday that the team is ”heartbroken” by Jackson’s death and that the 26-year-old ”was loved by all in the Colts organization.”

State police identified the victims as Jackson, who grew up in Atlanta, and 54-year-old Jeffrey Monroe, of Avon, Indiana. Police say they were killed when a suspected drunken driver struck them as they stood outside their car along Interstate 70 on Indianapolis’ west side.

Police said that it’s believed that Monroe was a ride-sharing operator who was transporting Jackson when Jackson became ill. Monroe pulled over to the side of the highway and got out to help Jackson when both were struck by a pickup truck that also hit Monroe’s car, police said.

The pickup’s driver, a 37-year-old Indianapolis man Drew Lock Jersey , tried to flee on foot but was quickly captured, State Police said. The man was believed to be intoxicated and was driving without a license, police said.

He was taken to the Marion County Jail, where blood-alcohol test results were pending.

The 6-foot, 234-pound Jackson attended Georgia Southern. He was signed by the Arizona Cardinals in May 2015 and released by the team about three months later. Jackson was signed to the Colts practice squad in December 2015 and then by the Colts to reserve/future contract in January 2016.

He was placed on injured reserve by the Colts last September.

The Colts said in their statement that they ”admired” Jackson’s ”outgoing personality, competitive spirit and hard-working mentality.”

”He was well-respected among all with whom he crossed paths, and he will be greatly missed in our locker room and throughout our entire organization,” the statement said.
