9ers “borrowing” plays

[Flint]

Anybody notice one of the plays SF scored on was one that Woods scored on before he got hurt, don’t remember what game.
Anyway, Woods is split wide and he comes in motion like a jet sweep, he pivots before he reaches the qb and is wide open in the flat for a pretty easy score. It worked just as well for them as it was a pretty easy td. I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but still it sucks to have your own stuff used against you.
This Shanahan guy is pretty sharp.

Yup. Said it as soon as it happened.

Copy cat league

 

[Tushar]

Absolutely, that was a page from McVay's playbook. As CGI said, it really is a copycat league. The play where Gurley scored a big touchdown against the Cowboys was the exact same play the Chiefs ran against the Patriots in week 1. I also remember McVay saying he took note of some the wildcat and option play designs this season - I'm expecting some really interesting plays from our offense this postseason.

 

[UnknownREknown]

Rams actually did the same thing to the Saints. Announcer called it as soon as it happened. Used their own play to score on them just like were going to do to the Falcons.

People are letting Shanahan off pretty easy in this thread. You don't think he was sending a message to McVay that he's coming for you next year?

 

[TexasRam]

The Rams are being closely examined trust me. When you are the highest scoring team you get love.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

McVay actually admitted he got it from Adam Gase when the Dolphins ran it with Jarvis Landry 2 weeks before the we did.

When he gets a QB that doesn't throw the ball to the other team I'll be more worried.

 

[OldSchool]

McVay himself had borrowed that play and others. Not a big deal.

 

[nighttrain]

or one that can really throw a deep ball

[shovelpass]

Yeah, @ninedeuce is right, the Dolphins ran the same play in week 6. The Rams ran it in week 10. It is a copycat league. It shows that a coach, our coach, is adaptable and is always looking to improve. Something the last staff had difficulty with.


At about 3:57
