On the FG kicking operation, McVay said the protection improved, but was disappointed in the operation, from Josh Karty missing a short FG to a bad snap.

"I'm not giving up up on that group, but there's a responsibility and accountability on everyone to do their 1/11th."

Sean McVay said Puka Nacua (ankle) "tried to be able to give it a go, just didn't feel good enough." Said he doesn't have enough info to know if Nacua will miss time.

"He maybe could have really pressed through," McVay said, but team opted for cautious approach.
