This Rams blocked field goal was awesome (Video)

Rams blocked field goal

The St. Louis Rams pulled off a blocked field goal in incredible fashion on Sunday.

St. Louis was already down 37-27 with two minutes left and very little chance of a comeback, but that didn’t stop Daren Bates from going all-out. Bates perfectly timed the snap, hurdled the hunter, and then he hopped in front of the kick attempt and blocked it.

The Rams lost a fumble on the next play and lost 37-27, but that shouldn’t stop us from praising Bates for his awesome play.

Look at how much air he got:

With a leap like that, Bates could compete with Adrian Wilson and Joey Gathright in the high jump.
