Was watching first things first this morning and Bart Scott was on saying that the Rams offense was a lot of window dressing and that it’s not that complicated and can be neutralized. He said they will run into a team that can shut them down, maybe this week. Hopefully McVay learned something from the Viking and Falcon games last year where the offense was shut down and he has a plan.

Lol i find that amusing since people keep saying that and still can't stop us.
 
eventually all schemes get figured out or at least become not as effective as it once was. the goal for mcvay is to be able to respond well to what the opposing D's are doing to try and neuter the rams offense. i'm betting making the TE's more prevalent is one option.

Exactly. Football is a game of preparation, and adjustments.

I mean I guess Bart Scott is so used to watching Sanchez throw picks; he doesn't know what a real offense looks like. We'll see if his opinion changes on Thursday.

McVay has been an offensive coordinator for several years. His schemes are not gimmicks. Sure some teams have defeated the Skins and Rams under McVay. But, it’s not like when the read option swept the league and it took a few years to figure out how to defend it.

It’s more like the Niners with Montana/Young, or like the Patriots. It’s not something that will get figured out.

And Bart Scott is right. It isn’t that complex and some teams will beat it. But, that is more predicated on match ups. Nobody will solve McVay’s schemes and set a blue print for how to defeat it.

BART Scott is a stooge.

Is there an offense he is impressed with? Just curious, for the sake of comparisons and analysis of his thought process....

Did he give examples of how he would neutralize it?

Or was it just some rhetoric?

I came in in the middle so I missed some and I’m not sure he explained it well for the laymen like me, but it involved inverting the safety’s so that the lbs would not be distracted by the motion. Once they get too wide they get gashed up the middle, but I didn’t really get it if it was that simple, maybe someone else can figure it out but now that it’s not TA how do you know which way the motion is going? Pretty much anyone can run the ghost motion and unlike last year they might actually get it.

Wow, our offense must be better than I thought!

It's all about excecution by the players, not so much the scheme being figured out.

Guy can go watch his Jets and pray that turnover factory Sam Darnold isn't another Butt Fumble Sanchez. Worry about your dud team.

That gif made me dizzy...

I agree. We have too many good options on this offense. Only 3 things can stop it:
1) a few MAJOR injuries
2) lack of execution
3) Some sort of cheating, a la the Pats vs Rams Superbowl upset.
