Rams' Joshua Karty: Heavy volume in defeat
Joshua Karty connected on five of six field-goal attempts during Sunday's 23-15 loss to the Dolphins.The rookie kicker contributed all of the Los Angeles Rams' points on Sunday, booting two lengthy kicks of 55 and 53 yards to go along with three shorter field goals. Karty did miss a 57-yard field-goal attempt in the third quarter, due in part to a false start by Beaux Limmer on the first attempt. It was still a solid performance for the rookie kicker, who will look to keep his string of good performances up against the Patriots in Week 11.

Rams' Joshua Karty: Struggles in victory
Joshua Karty missed his only field-goal attempt and made two of three PAT attempts during Sunday's 20-15 victory against the Raiders.The rookie kicker missed an extra point for the second consecutive game, and sent a 35-yard field-goal attempt into the left upright in the fourth quarter, a field goal that was critical because it would have pushed the Los Angeles Rams into a two-possession lead over the Raiders. Karty had been a reliable kicker through the Rams' first four games, but a trio of misses in his last two games will be something to monitor going forward, with a tough task at hand in Week 8 against one of the top teams in the NFC in the Vikings.

Rams' Joshua Karty: Drills game-winning FG
Joshua Karty connected on both of his field-goal attempts and converted all three of his extra point-tries during Sunday's 27-24 victory against San Francisco.Karty only managed to practice once during the week before Sunday's contest according to Stu Jackson of the team's official site. The lack of practice time and a nagging groin injury didn't deter the rookie kicker from showing why the team invested a sixth-round pick on him, as he came through with a 37-yard field goal with five seconds left to give the Los Angeles Rams their first victory of the season. Karty is a perfect 5-for-5 on field goals and 6-for-6 on extra points so far this season and looks ready to go for a Week 4 showdown with Chicago.
