This touchdown from Sam Bradford to Austin Pettis capped one of the most impressive clutch drives we've seen from Bradford in a Rams uniform, and put the team in position to upser the mighty 49ers. Against a top-shelf defense bringing pressure up the gut, this play required – and got – perfect execution from the quarterback, running back, inside protection, and the wide receiver.
[Editor's note: We're taking a different approach in this week's lesson in football from Coach Shields, as he is giving us his breakdown in video format. We broke this into two videos, roughly split between pre-snap and post-snap breakdowns.]
