I’ll start it positive.

Do The Rams script there first 15 plays ?
 
Just keeping my fingers crossed first play isn't a screen.
 
Two plays I love:

1. The one where Puka runs a WR to draw the D to him while Kupp sneaks down the sideline.

2. The one where Stafford bootlegs left and has three options at 3 levels.

I feel like the opposing team always is pretty successful in their scripted plays, not us. We rarely drive for a TD on the first drive of the game, were our opposition almost always does.
 
His scripts are poor because he still believes his offense cannot be stopped with proper execution. Every defense in the league defends us the same. Bottle up the middle, and it disrupts the entire passing game because there is no vertical threat.

I love play action & working it in the run game. It gives you a chance to mix it up on any down.Changing defensive looks.

Look at this last series 28-13

Look at this last series. It’s just mixing it up on different downs. It’s not brain since. You also get to view the defensive rotation & hammer there trend.

Then know when your in 4th down territory.Live how Stafford takes a hit on 2-1 on a deep pass & then a quick Qb sneak to get the first down.
 
How long can you keep it positive? Giving NE a chance to win the game & not run clock blows my mind.
He leaves it for the defense & tightens up,or just questionable calls all over the place.
-What a shame !!

I only say that because this O’Line is built to close games out.Giving to Kyren Williams on first down there really gives you more options & a chance to run clock.

Your making NE have to chose when to call a Time Out or run clock.
 
—This is what gets me !! SO UPSET!! He did it in Detroit to open the season.

QB sneak at the 50 you gave to go for it. The O’ is doing Nothing!! FG kicker can’t make it from there .

The Defense just held & on 4th & 4 you go for it on the 21 ???? RIDICULOUS!!!
 
BTW - The Rams lost possession. Not even close & the offense is struggling again.

Mcvay just hasn’t gotten any better at play calling. Game decisions is what is killing The Rams though.

The defense stopped New Orleans again, & now The Rams Offense really has to do something. Maybe even TD or lose the ball again ?

WOW - running game is good & FG boarder. Get sacked because Stafford doesn’t trust Tutu for some reason.He was right there crossing when he double pumped.

Now does he go for it on 4th & 9 ??
From the 50 ?? They give NO’s to much time as well. Running would have helped.

Was only 3rd down - they punt. Man - I knew he is better than that .
 
longest streak coming to an end.
Not going to score in the 1st half. It’s been 126 games straight.

Sean Mcvay has NEVER been SHUT in the FIRST HALF as a HC !!!

Until today & he didn’t go for a sure 3 & could have run out the ,and for another ???

6-0 SAINTS!!
 
Risk reward- Tutu on a reverse at New Orelans 40 on 2-4 with The Rams Offense RB’s(O’Line) dominating. Your in FG or 4th down range ?. Instead of running 3 times straight you give up the ball.

Passing on 3rd & 4 was next call when you still have 2 downs if needed ? FG range ?? Why over think it or run yourself out of FG range (scoring) Now with a penalty NO’s get the ball on the 28 yard line.

Just a tough play calling. The Rams should be WINNING!!(7-6 so yes they are)
 
How EASY is THAT ?? Play Action !!

WTF ? You protect Stafford & get him out of the pocket. Buys him time & a clear look at the field.

Keeps him away from those Blindsided sacks. Kyren Williams can roll. Just change it up & keep the defense honest.

PERFECT CALL - I ask for it & wow ,you can just see it .
 
That’s there money call w/ D. Rod scoring yet another TD. He leads The Rams I’m guessing!!!!!

BTW Vilmer or that old Saint LBer says the same thing right after I have text these last 2 . Unbelievable!! He has a nice SuperBowl ring he is sporting in the booth.
