znModerator. @brandincooks exploded for 159 yards in the home opener against Arizona in 2018. I was live at this game, he was a beacon of energy! The offense was on fire that day under the hot LA sun pic.twitter.com/nK1BmVgBzP

I’m so dumb, it’s only Monday and I’m starting to convince myself we can beat the Cardinals.Someone please stop me, this isn’t good for my mental health.

Andrew Whitworth reached out to Jared Goff yesterday and congratulated him on winning for the Lions. Whitworth told Goff about the big cheer he got from the SoFi crowd watching the highlights on the video board.Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigue
Per Sean McVay, Brian Allen sprained his MCL and is day-to-day. He is not ruled out this week but will be limited in practice to start the week.Sean McVay did not want to commit to Sony Michel moving into a traditional lead-back role, BUT added that the type of downhill physicality the Rams utilized behind Michel and some of those blocking concepts is something he believes they’ll need down the back stretch. Personal
opinion is that what he’d REALLY like to do is utilize more two-back personnel sets between Michel and Henderson, who has really been a positive in the passing game.
znModeratorThe number of times the Rams had 6+ OL on the field per @PFF:
Weeks 1-12: 1 play (29th)
Week 13: 16 plays (1st)It's so strange how they can just 180 in a week's time.

znModeratorRams quarterback Matthew Stafford recaptured his early-season form in a rout of Jaguars. Can he maintain it through last five games?https://t.co/36eWthZyQb

znModeratorHell of a comeback for Jared vs Vikings…
Game winning TD was a throw on 4th and 2 with 0.02 left on the clock.

Rams 0-for-4 on third down. Again, things you can get away with against the Jaguars, but the third down offense over the last month have been near the bottom of the league.Doesn’t help when Shelton gets beat on 3rd-and-1.
Wagnum P.I.@Wags_Official
Another ball behind a receiver. Same issue last week. Plus the high balls. I have to believe Stafford is more injured than anyone lets on. Just didn’t see the missed weeks 1-6.jonah@j_nametag
Michel isn’t the running back who is going to bust open a huge run, but he runs hard and gives you manageable 2nd and 3rd downs.Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigue
Something Matthew Stafford pointed out with a chuckle about the challenge of changing centers in-game: Brian Allen snaps right-handed; Coleman Shelton snaps left-handed.znModeratorSony Michel served as the lead back for the #Rams in their 37-7 victory over the Jaguars, playing 64 of 66 snaps (97% playtime).
Michel faced a stacked box (8+ defenders) on half of his 24 carries, gaining 54 yards on those carries (+13 RYOE).#JAXvsLAR | #RamsHouse pic.twitter.com/OmEUFEAU8e

znModeratormcvay talks about the last few games – the turnovers, the 3 pick-6, and the bad guys holding the ball a long time, which hurt the rams.
but he doesn't mention that the rams had 33 drives to work with and only scored 5 tds, punted 12 times and failed on four 4th down tries. pic.twitter.com/95BwYD1UB1

znModeratorI was looking forward to a nice discussion of Hawkeye.
Once again, I am a broken and disppointed man.

znModeratorI liked it better when everybody thought the Rams were the best team in the NFL.
Turns out, though, they have to prove they can beat winning teams.
That’s what the radical new types of statistical analysis are saying these days.
znModeratorThe Rams' OL ranks under Kevin Carberry this season per @PFF:
130 pressures allowed (3rd-fewest)
19 sacks (3rd-fewest)
3.9% sack percentage (5th-lowest)
23.2% pressure percentage (2nd-lowest)I can't believe there are actually fans still talking about Aaron Kromer.

znModeratorI moved this from another thread where it was starting to take up “digression space.”
znModeratorSurprisingly, it’s not a big national game.
znModerator2 wks to prepare for the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year, and the rams started the game with 2 drives that included stafford falling twice during handoffs, with him completing 1 of 3 for 4 yds, and with him getting strip-sacked – how is this possible? pic.twitter.com/J241UmgIX2

znModeratorThe Rams’ slump isn’t just a Matt Stafford issue. In my latest for the @ringer, I look at how defenses have adjusted to the new-look offense and why Sean McVay’s typical issues in the second half of seasons remains a problem despite a clear upgrade at QB. https://t.co/qQp9DIBahW

I can’t believe they’ve been blown out by 4 of the 5 teams they’ve played that have a winning record. Down 34-13 in 3rd quarter to Cardinals, down 28-9 to Titans, down 31-7 to 49ers, down 36-17 to Packers in 3rd quarter. Bad losses because of the way they’ve lost.

Just a fun reminder that the Buccaneers were 7 – 5 heading into December last season. Following some very questionable games and a division blowout.Lindsey Thiry@LindseyThiry
Sean McVay admits they’re going through adversity and playing below standard, but pointed to the Atlanta Braves and even last season’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers as teams that won championships that hit bumps along the way.Jourdan Rodrigue@JourdanRodrigue
For tracking purposes, while ESPN’s metrics have the Rams’ OL at No. 2 in pass block win rate and No. 9 in run block win rate; per TruMedia Rams’ EPA/rush is -0.11 (No. 22), yards after contact/rush is 2.27 (No. 30), and 39.2% successful play rate on rush plays (No. 16).znModeratorfrom https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2021/11/30/rams-sean-mcvay-offense-tendencies-play-action/
When asked why the Los Angeles Rams haven’t been calling play-action plays or deploying certain personnel, McVay discussed why the team has operated differently on offense so far.
“I think when you look at a lot of those things, it’s not an excuse, but we’ve gotten really thinned out with some of the depth of our roster at different positions as well, not exclusive to receivers, but losing a Johnny Mundt was a really big loss,” he said Monday. “Now, you’ve got confidence in Kendall Blanton and Brycen Hopkins if need be, but those are all very merited points and definitely things that we’ve talked about as a coaching staff. I think it’s really figuring out our identity that we came into this year with, is not going to be able to be that same identity just based on some of the changes that we’ve had. What does that look like in terms of balancing and still being able to do some of the things that Matthew and our offensive players have done at a really high level while not leaving us susceptible to some of the bad things that have resulted over the last couple of weeks, whether it be timing, some of the turnovers. There’s a lot of different things, all of which you’ve kind of alluded to. And so, the challenge for us – and a good challenge – is figuring out a way to maximize our players’ skillsets and be able to try to establish an identity of what exactly we want to look like. I don’t think it has to be one thing, or this or that, or only that, but maybe a little bit of a mixture is something that we’re talking about.”
