BenFred's Rams Rewind: Foles showed leadership

Pete Carroll called it an exquisite play. My mind jumped to knockout punch. For Nick Foles, it was just another bump in the road.

I wasn't the only one who thought Seattle cornerback Cary Williams spoiled the Rams' season opener when he came untouched off the edge, strip-sacked Foles and turned a tie game into apparent doom.

The Edward Jones Dome went from rocking to reeling. Those not wearing an obnoxious shade of green braced for another Rams gut-punch.

Not Foles. He's not from around here.

"If there's time on the clock, the game's never over, no matter what the score is," Foles said after the Rams' 34-31 overtime win.
