Sean McVay vowed his Rams staff will ‘learn’ and ‘be better’ after some coaches were filmed taunting and even flipping off Eagles fans during Sunday’s thrilling win in Philadelphia.
Footage on social media showed a cup and a bottle of water being hurled at the box where Rams coaches were celebrating Los Angeles‘ 24-20 win at Lincoln Financial Field.
One member of McVay’s staff could be seen flipping off the furious crowd before a plastic bottle was thrown at the suite, covering the glass in water.
Stadium security staff eventually stepped in as tempers flared in Philadelphia.
After the footage went viral on social media, McVay revealed that he had spoken to his assistant coaches about the incident.
‘We’ll be better in those situations,’ he said, per ESPN. ‘We’ll learn from that… those fans are really into it.

‘We’ll be better in those situations… we’ll learn from that,’ Rams head coach Sean McVay said
‘But I know that we want to make sure that we’re representing the class and just the calm steadiness that we want to have while also being emotionally into it.
‘And there’s ways that we can have that reflected. We did talk about it, and that won’t be an issue moving forward.’
Kyren Williams ran for two touchdowns in the final four minutes as Matthew Stafford and the Rams rallied from a ten-point deficit to beat the Eagles 24-20 on Sunday.
The Eagles – who failed to convert a single third down on 12 tries – punted to set up Stafford for the winning drive.
He connected with Puka Nacua three times and had a clutch 8-yard scramble on the ten-play, 79-yard march, and Williams finished it off when he broke a few tackles for a seven-yard touchdown with 1:10 remaining.
